Haste

Haste inspires unholy elohim to act with increased Speed.

Cursed Haste and Unholy Haste each increase the maximum Speed given.

	Class	Complexity	Effect
Godspeed	Affecting Ongoing Boosting	21	adds 1 Speed +1 for each Level of Effect (max 3 LoE) to all unholy elohim
Blessed Godspeed		40	adds 1 Speed +1 for each Level of Effect (max 7 LoE) to all unholy elohim
Holy Godspeed		80	adds 1 Speed +1 for each Level of Effect (max 12 LoE) to all unholy elohim

Sloth

Sloth demotivates holy elohim, reducing their Speed by 6(2). Speed cannot be reduced below 3 in this way. This Song is Resistible using Passion.

Cursed Sloth reduces Speed by 9(3). Unholy Sloth reduces Speed by 12(4).

	Class	Complexity	Effect
Sloth	Affecting Ongoing Resistible	21	reduces Speed of all holy elohim by 6(2) Resisted using Passion
Cursed Sloth		40	reduces Speed of all holy elohim by 9(3) Resisted using Passion
Unholy Sloth		80	reduces Speed of all holy elohim by 12(4) Resisted using Passion

Tempest

Tempest manifests a strong wind that doubles the distance covered by the Minstrel and their allies when Moving and also halves the distance covered by up to Tier:1 holy elohim. The amount of distance halved or doubled each Segment is equal to the SPP invested and is tracked using the amount of distance that would be covered before any effects are applied to the distance. (For example, spending 2 Actions Points moving would count as 2" halved or doubled, regardless if the distance was halved by Defensive Stance or increased by having a Horse.)

Unlike most Songs, the Range of this Song is constant. The Song’s effect begins after the last Action Point that puts a character into Range and ends with the last Action Point that puts a character into or out of Range. Any Strikes and their associated Moving are based upon the Range when the Strike was initiated. Multiple instances of Tempest can compound to increase the amount of distance halved or doubled, but it will still only be halved or doubled. Winds of Heaven and Tempest offset each other by the comparative distances they overlap.

Cursed Tempest can affect more distance and affects up to Tier:2 holy elohim. Unholy Tempest can affect even more distance and affects all holy elohim.

	Class	Complexity	Effect
Tempest	Manifesting Ongoing Self	40	doubles distance Moved by unholy elohim = SPP halves distance Moved by holy elohim = SPP affects up to Tier:1 holy elohim
Cursed Tempest		80	doubles distance Moved by unholy elohim = SPP halves distance Moved by holy elohim = SPP affects up to Tier:2 holy elohim
Unholy Tempest		120	doubles distance Moved by unholy elohim = SPP halves distance Moved by holy elohim = SPP affects all holy elohim

Prevailing Current

Prevailing Current manifests a powerful wind that speeds or slows the progress of Songs (including this one) and Ranged Strikes. Unholy Songs and Ranged Strikes are furthered by 0.5” for every 2 SPP invested by the singing Minstrel. The Ranges of holy Songs and Ranged Strikes passing through the Song’s Range are precluded by 3”(1”) immediately upon touching the Range of this Song. Prevailing Current is Resistible using Passion. It is Resisted with each individual Strike and once each Cycle for Songs as a whole per singing Minstrel.

Prevailing Current	Manifesting Ongoing Boosting Resistible	144	adds 0.5" Range to unholy Ranged Strikes & Songs for each Level of Effect (max 24 LoE) reduces Range of holy Ranges Strikes & Songs by 3"(1") Resisted using Passion
