Scrolls

Scrolls contain knowledge from the Most High for those who are ready to receive it. Some Scrolls permanently teach or improve Maneuvers, Spiritual Effects, and Songs. Some permanently improve the Natural Value of Basic Attributes or Social Attributes.   

Eating a Scroll

In order to ingest the knowledge contained in a Scroll, a elohim must eat the Scroll. Eating a scroll will improve and expand a character's abilities. Eating a Scroll outside of War is as simple as saying "I am eating this Scroll." Eating a Scroll during War follow the general rules for eating and drinking

Legitimate Knowledge

Each Scroll has a legitimate time to be eaten. To test the legitimate time, they will want certain circumstances to be the case. These circumstances vary, but generally they have to do with the elohim being of a certain Order, Tier, or possessing certain abilities.

  • Basic Attribute Scrolls want the elohim to be of at least a certain Tier.

  • Social Attribute Scrolls want the elohim to be of at least a certain Tier or to be improving a Skill or Composure to a specific range of values.

  • Maneuver Scrolls want the elohim to be able to learn Maneuver normally. If higher than Mastery Level 1, they want the elohim to have Mastered the Maneuver to the Level just below and be of the legitimate Tier to upgrade the Maneuver to the new Mastery Level. 

  • Spiritual Effect Scrolls want the elohim to be able to learn Spiritual Effect normally. They also want the elohim to have learned any preceding Spiritual Effects in the Family. If the Spiritual Effect is Sanctified or Holy, they will want the elohim to be of at least the correct Tier. 

  • Song Scrolls want the elohim to be able to learn Songs normally. They also want the elohim to have learned any preceding Songs in the Family. If the Song is Blessed or Righteous, they will want the elohim to be of at least the correct Tier. 

If an elohim eats a Scroll that is illegitimate for them, they will suffer greatly. The elohim will still gain the benefit of the Scroll, but it will turn sour inside them and will leave them perpetually Weakened. No special effects will be able to negate the Weakened Status.

Basic Attribute Scrolls

Basic Attribute Scrolls permanently improve the Natural Value of a specified Basic Attribute. The amount of the improvement determines what Tier of character can legitimately eat the Scroll.

  • +3 to a specified Basic Attribute = legitimate for any elohim
  • +7 to a specified Basic Attribute = legitimate for elohim of at least Tier:2
  • +12 to a specified Basic Attribute = legitimate for elohim of at least Tier:3

Social Attribute Scrolls

Social Attribute Scrolls permanently improve the Natural Value of a specified Social Attribute. For Perception, the amount of the improvement determines what Tier of character can legitimately eat the Scroll. For Skills and Composures, the new value of the Attribute after eating the Scroll determines if the character can legitimately eat the Scroll.

  • +1 to Perceive or vs. Perceive = legitimate for any elohim
  • +2 to Perceive or vs. Perceive = legitimate for elohim of at least Tier:2
  • +3 to Perceive or vs. Perceive = legitimate for elohim of at least Tier:3
  • +1 to a specified Social Skill or Composure 1-3 = legitimate for an elohim whose Skill or Composure will become 1-3
  • +1 to a specified Social Skill or Composure 4-7 = legitimate for an elohim whose Skill or Composure will become 4-7
