Kamaitachi's Blessing The cutting wind at your back

1
Requires Seasoned
A consumable ________ that lets you fly through the air at impressive speeds.
Used by Leon Vanderblight, Created by leonvanderblight.
( )

Leon's powers have not all come back exactly as they should, but Leon has made friends in many places, and with their help, he can cover for what remains missing. This particular blessing comes courtesy of the Kamaitachi, the sickle ferret. A friendly (to Leon at least) wind spirit who commands the cutting wind. A spirit rumored to command winds that can decapitate people. Though despite the gnarly rumors one can often see little ferrets running alongside him as he rides these winds, Leon smiling as he flies in the midst of them, laughing as he tells them a joke or two to pass the time though the fickle spirits do tend to be rather demanding and won't release Leon until they've been suitably entertained.

Use up this ________ (unless you succeed on 1d10, Difficulty 7) and spend three Actions performing the following ritual: Telling the sickle ferret a joke once summoned. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.

You may levitate off the ground at three times your normal walking speed. The effect lasts for the next hour, and while it is active, you cannot choose to end the effect early, or come closer than 15 feet to the ground.

While in the air, your move speed and encumbrance are based on your rating in Mind instead of your Brawn and Dexterity.

  • Your free Movement while levitating is now 5 + (5 x Mind) feet per round without incurring a dice penalty. You may extend your Movement by up to 20 extra feet, taking a -1 dice penalty for every 5 extra feet you travel.
  • If something pushes or forces you down towards the ground, your buoyancy will automatically push you back upwards to a height of at least 5 feet off the ground.
  • This consumable is destroyed when used and cannot be used again.
  • Any penalties to dice or movement, including from Encumbrance, are applied as normal. If your movement is reduced to 0 due to encumbrance, you will begin to sink down to the ground.
  • You may activate this Effect while in midair, allowing you to slow and survive any free fall.
