Humact Lay Power

Invoke Sphere 5

Range Self Only

Duration 15 Minutes

Extendable? No

Description This invocation takes a full 5 minutes to cast and requires a consistent and appropriate ceremony to be performed centred upon a casting mat (see the high level casting page). Upon completion the caster has called directly on the Good Sphere for aid and so may cast a single Good Ritual Invocation, at normal use of power, using vocals only, without the normal 15 minutes casting time. The Ritual invocation must be cast within 15 minutes of the Invoke, and until it is cast no invocations from other Spheres can be cast nor can another Invoke Sphere be cast. The caster may only cast a Ritual Invocation that he is already capable of casting, no additional casting ability is granted by this invocation.

Invocation Descriptions

Aid of Humact 4

Range Touch

Duration 15 Minutes

Extendable? No

Description This invocation will call forth a protection from Humact. The recipient of the invocation automatically resists the next Fear or Paralysis effect they receive from an Undead. A character may have multiple Aid of Humact invocations in effect at a time; each will protect the recipient from a single fear of paralysis effect. Aid of Humact will only take effect upon an individual with a connection to the Good Sphere.

Courage Range 3

Range 20 ft

Duration Instant

Extendable? N/A

Description This invocation works in exactly the same way as the Rank 2 Courage invocation but at a range of 20ft.

Humact's Sanction 4

Range 20 ft

Duration 15 Minutes

Extendable? No

Description Any Undead creature targeted by this invocation will receive +1 rank of damage from any weapon blow received whilst the Humact's Sanction is in effect. An Undead with a Humact's Sanction in effect will take 3 hits per blow from a character doing "Power 2" for example or 5 hits from a character doing "Quad". Humact's Sanction does not cancel any special immunities that the Undead creature may have, it would not make a Ghoul susceptible to physical damage for instance. Humact's Sanction has no effect upon creatures that are not Undead.

Mass Courage 5

Range Circle, 10 ft Radius, centred on caster

Duration Instant

Extendable? N/A

Description This invocation has the same effect as the rank 2 Courage invocation with the exception that it affects all characters within 10 feet of the caster.

Protection Vs. Disease 1, 3, 5

Range Touch

Duration 15 Minutes

Extendable? Yes

Description The Target is immune to all Diseases of the same or lower rank that the effective rank of the Protection Vs. Disease invocation as summarised below. A Disease received before the Protection from Disease was cast will affect the victim normally.

Rank Disease Protected Against
1 Minor (Rank 1)
3 Medium (Rank 3)
5 Major (Rank 5)

Because a Disease invocation takes time to take effect the caster of a Disease will be unaware that the invocation has failed against a protected target. It is therefore not necessary to say "No Effect" when struck with a Disease to which you are protected against.

Protection Vs. Undead 1 - 5

Range Touch

Duration 15 Minutes

Extendable? Yes

Description The Target gains additional Power Armour Class against spiritual damage caused by Undead as shown below;

Rank Power Armour Class Vs. Undead
1 +1
2 +2
3 +3
4 +4
5 +5

A Protection from Undead does not provide any additional protection from Invocations (such as Cause Wounds) even if the invocation was cast upon them by an Undead. The Power Armour Class provided by Protection from Undead will stack with any other form of Power Armour Class and/or dexterity with the exception of Power Armour Class provided by an Evil Invocation (such as a Cloak of Ushaz).

Remove Paralysis Range 4

Range 20 ft

Duration Instant

Extendable? N/A

Description This invocation works in exactly the same way as the Rank 3 Remove Paralysis invocation but at a range of 20ft.

Repel Undead 5

Range 20 ft

Duration Instant

Extendable? N/A

Description A single undead creature targeted by this invocation is driven back 20ft directly away from the caster regardless of the strength level of the undead.
