Blessed with great vitality, you heal injuries with heroic speed and ease. Your own injuries from lethal damage heal as if they were bashing damage (see the Healing Damage chart in Mage 20, p. 406), and aggravated damage heals as if it were one level higher than it is. (Wounded-level

damage, for instance, would heal

at the Injured-level rate.) Bashing damage, regardless of its extent, heals within an hour.

If you’re trying to heal someone else, you subtract -2 from the difficul­ ty of the roll, even if that roll involves casting a Life Sphere healing Effect.

(The usual +3 maximum modifier

and minimum difficulty of 3 still apply – see Mage 20, p. 503.) As long

as you remain in physical touch

with the injured party, that

character uses your healing

rate as her own. Your touch also soothes minor pains –

muscle spasms, headaches,

and so forth – within a

minute or two.

Beyond its healing pow­ ers, this rush of life-energy simply feels good, too. Your

aura shines with bright vitality, and your Reso­

nance reflects your strong

connection to the primal

life-force. On the inevita­ ble downside, vampires find your blood delicious – twice as potent as normal human vitae (worth double the usual blood points, for players of

Vampire: The Masquerade) – and

unspeakably refreshing.
