The ring allows the bearer to avoid being struck by a physical attack or a bolt spell although they must have at least some TMR available to them. They must Break 100 + AG + 5 x their unused TMR that Pulse. If they have 7 TMR and have moved 4 hexes and attacked with a melee weapon, they may add at most 15 to the Break 100 result.
If the roll fails, no TMR is used, however the ring can only be used once per Pulse.

Special Abilities

Mordrin's Regeneration

Exp. Mult.: 350
Effects: Mordrin may Heal herself as if she practised that profession at Rank 10. The number of Ranks she may apply to herself in any given day is equal to her Rank in this Talent to a maximum of 10, from sunrise to sunrise. This does not cost any FT, but takes as much time as if she were a Rank 10 Healer. She may not, however, Transfer Fatigue, Preserve the Dead, Resurrect, nor may she Regenerate Vital Organs when they are her heart or brain. Indeed, she may not use this Talent at all if she is dead, although it will work if she is unconscious.

Example

Mordrin has the Talent at Rank 10, has taken 17 points of EN damage, had a hand amputated and is suffering from a bleeder. The bleeder requires Rank 1 Healer to cure, reattaching the hand requires Rank 7, the lost EN will require the Cure Endurance ability which is Rank 3, so Mordrin cannot do this until after the next dawn.

Kementari's Gift

Exp. Mult.: 1000
Effects: This Talent has been given to Tari so that she may champion Kementari's cause to protect the wild and nature. She gains these Abilities according to this schedule as her Rank increases:

Nature Sense

The Rank of this Talent is subtracted from the die roll result when making Ranger checks.

Wild Empathy

Either the Rank of this Talent is subtracted from the die roll result when making Beast Master checks or it is added to the Reaction Result of the attitude of beasts towards them. It does not having any effect at all againt sentient entities.

Woodland Stride

The Adept is not impeded by natural ground clutter and may move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment. This does not work against thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that have been magically manipulated to hinder movement.

Trackless Step

The Adept leaves no trail in natural surroundings and cannot be tracked although they may choose to leave a trail if they so desire.

Resist Fae

The Adept subtracts the Rank of this Talent from the die roll result when attempting to Resist the magic of fae creatures.

Wild Shape

The Adept may assume the shape of a creature they know. They acquire minimum PS, MD, AG & EN and other characteristics of the creature, adding 1 for every 4 Ranks in the Talent. However, they retain their own MA, WP, PC and FT. The size of the beast can be as small as a house cat or as large as a black bear. When the Talent is Ranked to 7, they choose a creature as large as a horse or a grizzly bear. At Rank 10, they may choose a creature as small as a mouse. Similarly, they may learn to the shape of a plant at Rank 11.

The Adept is entitled to learn 1 beast per Rank, 2 hex beast and fae/enchanged beasts requiring two slots, 3 hex beasts requiring 3. These costs are cumulative, so a 3 hex enchanted beast would cost 5 slots.

Resist Poison

The Adept subtracts the Rank of this Talent from the die roll result whenever they are attempting to Resist Poison.

Face Dancing

The Adept may alter their body and features to change their appearance. They may add or subtract 1 to their size for every 10 Ranks, and may not be Located unless the spell is greater than the Rank of this Talent.

Tree Door

The Adept may enter a tree and pass to another tree that is within sight and range or which is within range and that they have memorised (which requires 1,000 Experience). Range is Rank x Rank miles.

Colleges

The Adept may learn the magic of other elemental and celestial colleges. The cost to learn the magic is equal to 10 x the Experience Multiple and takes the normal amount of time to learn. If the Adept wishes to be able to use this magic more than once a day they must learn it again, which doubles both the time to learn it and the Experience cost.

The number in the GK column indicates the number of colleges they may learn the General Knowledge magic of, the number in the SK column indicates the number of colleges they may learn the Special Knowledge magic of.

The Adept may only learn the Special body of knowledge if they have learnt its General Knowledge. Once they have acquired its Special Knowledge, they need not keep the General Knowledge. However, unless the college's General Knowledge sphere is known, this magic is treated as if it were Special Knowledge.

Once chosen, the Special Knowledge of a college may not be abandoned except by extraordinary means. The General Knowledge of a college may be abandoned at will, however. Such abandonment does not mean the Adept has lost access to that magic, either.

The number and type of magic the Adept wishes to use in a day is defined by the number of GK or SK magic at that Rank. Rank 17 allows the Adept to use 5 General Knowledge and 3 Special Knowledge magics that day. These must be chosen by the Adept at sunrise. Talents and Spells require one slot, Rituals require two.

General Knowledge magic where the Adept has abandoned that body of knowledge is treated as a Special Knowledge magic, and so using it counts against the number of Special Knowledge magic that they know a day.

Example

Tari has advanced the Talent to Rank 13. She can learn the General Knowledge magic of Solar, Water and Fire colleges and the Special Knowledge of Air and Water colleges. From Air, she knows Vapour Breathing & Flying, From Water, she knows Water Breathing, Create Fog & Waters of Vision, from the Solar college she knows Resist Light. She had learnt Vapour Breathing (costing 1,500 Experience and taking 3 weeks to learn) when she knew the General Knowledge of the Air college, but has since abandoned it. She has only just started working on Fire magic, so has not learnt anything from that college yet.

She wants to hang Vapour Breathing today so she must use up a Special Knowledge slot (of which she only has two) because she doesn't have any General Knowledge slots available for Air college. Now, she can hang Flying or Waters of Vision in the other Special Knowledge slot, but not both. She can hang Water Breathing
