Godspeed

Godspeed inspires holy elohim to act with increased Speed.

Blessed Godspeed and Righteous Godspeed each increase the maximum Speed given.

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

Impedance

Impedance demotivates unholy elohim, reducing their Speed by 3(1). Speed cannot be reduced below 3 in this way. If they have 3 uncancelled Fails in their Resist Check, they cannot benefit active defenses such as Defensive Stance, Parry, Grand Parry, and Shielded Defense and their Swiftness Checks will have +3 Difficulty. This Song is Resistible using Passion.

Blessed Impedance reduces Speed by 6(2). Righteous Impedance reduces Speed by 9(3).

	Class	Complexity	Effect
Impedance	Affecting Ongoing Resistible	21	reduces Speed of all unholy elohim by 3(1) if 3 uncancelled Fails, no active defenses and +3 Difficulty to Swiftness Checks Resisted using Passion
Blessed Impedance		40	reduces Speed of all unholy elohim by 6(2) if 3 uncancelled Fails, no active defenses and +3 Difficulty to Swiftness Checks Resisted using Passion
Righteous Impedance		80	reduces Speed of all unholy elohim by 9(3) if 3 uncancelled Fails, no active defenses and +3 Difficulty to Swiftness Checks Resisted using Passion

Winds of Heaven

Winds of Heaven manifests a strong wind that doubles the distance covered by the Minstrel and their allies when Moving and causes up to Tier:1 unholy elohim to Move as though in Defensive Stance while within Range.

Tempest doubles up to 2” of Movement and requires 2 SPP to be invested. Unlike most Songs, the Range of Tempest is constant. If a character Moves into Range, the Song takes effect after the last Action Point that puts them into Range and ends with the last Action Point that puts a character out of Range. Any Moving done while Striking is resolved depending on the character’s condition when they began the Strike. If within Range, the entire Move with the Strike is affected. If outside of Range, the entire Move with the Strike is unaffected. Multiple instances of Winds of Heaven do not Stack. Apply only the strongest version. Overlapping Winds of Heaven and Tempest offset each other. If one is a higher Tier, then apply only the higher Tier where they overlap. If the Minstrel is Defeated or stopped from Singing, Winds of Heaven ceases having an effect after the current Segment ends.

Blessed Winds of Heaven doubles up to 4" Moved by holy elohim, affects up to Tier:2 unholy elohim, and requires 4 SPP to be invested. Righteous Winds of Heaven doubles up to 6" Moved by holy elohim, affects up to Tier:3 unholy elohim, and requires 6 SPP to be invested.

Wind of the Spirit

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