Suppression

Suppression manifests a weight of holiness in an area of 12” from the Ministering Spirit. The weight suppresses the actions of Tier:1 and lower unholy elohim, adding 2 Exertion to them whenever they begin an Activation within 7” of the Ministering Spirit and adding 1 Exertion to them whenever they begin an Activation between 7”-12” of the Ministering Spirit.

Exertion gained from Suppression is not due to the affected elohim's actions and is not able to be ignored as such.

Sanctified Suppression affects up to Tier:2 unholy elohim. Righteous Suppression affects up to Tier:3 unholy elohim.

	Class	Allotment	Effect
Suppression	Manifesting Ongoing Self	Fixed 14	adds 2 Exertion to up to Tier:1 unholy elohim within 7" adds 1 Exertion to up to Tier:1 unholy elohim between 7"-12"
Sanctified Suppression		28	adds 2 Exertion to up to Tier:2 unholy elohim within 7" adds 1 Exertion to up to Tier:2 unholy elohim between 7"-12"
Righteous Suppression		49	adds 2 Exertion to up to Tier:3 unholy elohim within 7" adds 1 Exertion to up to Tier:3 unholy elohim between 7"-12"

Radiance

Radiance causes the Ministering Spirit to shine brightly. Any who would Strike the Ministering Spirit will do so with -2 Precision. Radiance also causes 6(2) WearP to any unholy elohim within 7”. Radiance requires the Ministering Spirit to have line of sight and the Wear is Resistible using Resolve.

Radiance cannot cause Precision to fall to a negative value. The WearP is dealt only once each Cycle. Radiance is a bold statement and the Ministering Spirit may not be in Defensive Stance while using Radiance. If the Ministering Spirit is currently in Defensive Stance, using Radiance will immediately remove them from Defensive Stance. 

Sanctified Radiance allows higher Allotments, lowers Precision by 4, and causes 12(4) WearP. Righteous Radiance allows even higher Allotments, lowers Precision by 6, and causes 18(6) WearP.

	Class	Allotment	Effect
Radiance	Manifesting Ongoing Wearing/Self	Variable 40-80	-2 Precision when Striking the Ministering Spirit 6(2) WearP to all unholy elohim within 7" Wear is Resisted using Resolve
Sanctified Radiance		80-160	-4 Precision when Striking the Ministering Spirit 12(4) WearP to all unholy elohim within 7" Wear is Resisted using Resolve
Righteous Radiance		120-240	-6 Precision when Striking the Ministering Spirit 18(6) WearP to all unholy elohim within 7" Wear is Resisted using Resolve

Presence

Presence manifests a strong weight of holiness in an area of 7” from the Ministering Spirit. This weighs heavily upon up to Tier:1 unholy elohim, giving them Bane:1 when they are rolling within 7” of the Ministering Spirit. Presence also allows the Ministering Spirit to be sensed within 7” as if they were in Melee Range.

When Moving while performing an action, Presence affects any rolls for said action if the character is within 7" at any point while Moving.

Sanctified Presence affects up to Tier:2 unholy elohim. Righteous Presence affects up to Tier:3 unholy elohim.

	Class	Allotment	Effect
Presence	Manifesting Ongoing Self	Fixed 40	Bane:1 to up to Tier:1 unholy elohims' rolls made within 7"
Sanctified Presence		80	Bane:1 to up to Tier:2 unholy elohims' rolls made within 7"
Righteous Presence		120	Bane:1 to up to Tier:3 unholy elohims' rolls made within 7"

Glorious Countenance

Glorious Countenance causes the Ministering Spirit’s face to shine with the glory of the Most High. This Spiritual Effect takes 1 complete Cycle to prepare. The Ministering Spirit must initiate the Spiritual Effect during their first Activation of the Cycle. It will then begin to have an effect at the beginning of their first Activation of the next Cycle. That first Cycle is spent in prayer, seeking the Most High's face. This requires much concentration, and so the Ministering Spirit is at half Guard and -7 to Perceive until their last Activation of the Cycle. For the last Activation the Ministering Spirit exits the prayer and the glory begins manifesting. In addition to negating all Precision of those affected when they Strike the Ministering Spirit, the shining also deals 30(10) WearR & WearP to all unholy elohim within 12" of the Ministering Spirit. Glorious Countenance requires the Ministering Spirit to have line of sight and the Wear is Resistible using Resolve.

Glorious Countenance cannot be maintained longer than 40 Cycles (just over 3 minutes). The Ministering Spirit must wait 1 Hour before using it Glorious Countenance again. The Ministering Spirit can choose to cancel the use of this Spiritual Effect any time before the glory manifests and will not have to wait 1 Hour before trying again. The Guard reduction and penalty to Perceive are voluntary and are not removed by Boosting Spiritual Effects like Surrogate.

	Class	Allotment	Effect
Glorious Countenance	Manifesting Ongoing Wearing	Variable 144-400	negate all Precision vs. the Ministering Spirit 30(10) WearR/P to all unholy elohim within 12" Wear is Resisted using Resolve
