When the Enaros performed the Malanoor it left the Enari without magic. Sensing their celestial children would be lost without some amount of power however, the Enaros decided to share their own essence in a way that would allow them to control how that essence was to be used. This gift, known as channeling, is the ability to draw divine essence directly from the Enaros to create miraculous effects in the physical world.
The Art of Channeling
When a channeler intones an orison he does not envision detailed formulas or act out carefully rehearsed movements and gestures. Instead, he clears his mind and focuses on his patron Enaros. He may use special prayers, raise his hands to the heavens, or fall to his knees, but these are simply tools to help clear his mind and train his thoughts on the Enaros.
The channeler then focuses on his desire, prays for it with his whole heart and, if his devotion is strong, the thing he has envisioned comes to pass. Ask a channeler how it happens and he will not know. It simply is as the Enaros wish it.
INTONING ORISONS
Orisons are the divine powers that a channeler intones to create his miracles. While orisons are not learned like arcane spell formulas, a channeler still requires basic instruction to properly intone a specific divine effect.
Although channelers are best at intoning orisons whose power sourced from their patron Enaros, they may learn orisons sourced from any of the Enaros. As long as a channeler is in good standing with the patron Enaros and knows the proper canon there is no reason he may not attempt to intone the orison.
These rules also recognize the various levels of devotion based on the abilities possessed by the channeler. For example, a Favored is someone with the Sanctified Talent plus Piety with the patron Enaros. The term channeler applies equally to all.
Abilities Devotion
None Mundane
Channeling skill Devoted
Sanctified talent Favored
plus Piety skill with patron Enaros
The term “patron Enaros” refers to the specific Enaros from whom a specific power is sourced or channeled. For example, Alantra is the patron Enaros for all healing powers.
Holy Symbols
The holy symbol is the key conduit between the channeler and the enaros. All holy symbols incorporate the symbol of Divinity, the blazing sign of Lensae minus the fallen son of Endroren. This forms the foundation of the symbol. To this are added the symbols of the various Enaros with which the channeler possesses piety. The symbols borne by Hierophants are even more extravagant and venerate their patron deity even more.
Without a holy symbol the channeler may still intone an orison, but the time involved increases greatly.
When a channeler wishes to intone an orison he performs the Channeling Maneuver. This maneuver can be performed either in or out of combat. All orisons require Gestures (one-hand free or performed with a held focus), Incantations (normal voice), and a Focus (Holy Symbol) or suffer negative modifiers.
To channel an orison the player makes a Channeling Skill roll, adding any Orison Skill Levels and Piety if appropriate. The intonation may be performed in one of two ways: Cant or Prayer.
Cants
Cants are the most common method of intoning divine power, requiring a Half Phase non-attack action with Concentration (1/2 DCV). They are characterized by repetition of scripture with a wide range of tonal emphasis. Canted orisons are quick to manifest, but are not the most powerful of channels. Additionally, blessings and boons are never bestowed as a cant.
Holy Symbol: Without the holy symbol cants take 1 turn to channel.
Prayers
Prayers require a greater amount of time and effort to perform, and are required for all blessings and boons. They are characterized by Total Concentration (0 DCV), most often in the form of kneeling, and intoning for a Full Phase action. The orison is then ready to be used at the beginning of the character’s next phase.
Intoning an orison which is not a boon or a blessing as a prayer will improve the Channeling roll by +2.
Holy Symbol: Without the holy symbol prayers take 1 minute to channel.

Running allows noncombat movement at a greater penalty than the Moving modifier.
Targeting Orisons
Orisons are targeted using the OCV of the caster versus the DCV of the target.
Range and Line of Sight
In general, all orisons require line of sight to target and suffer no range penalties.

CHANNELING RESULTS
A successful Channeling roll indicates the granting of power as requested. However, the more a channeler draws from a particular Enaros, the less likely they will be able to channel from that Enaros again. The measure of this likelihood is called Disfavor. As Disfavor increases, the channeler incurs a penalty to the Channeling roll.
Disfavor
Disfavor is incurred when they require more power from an Enaros more than was granted. Every channeling effort increases Disafavor (DIS) with the patron Enaros by 1 per point of Magnitude (MAG) of the channeled Orison. This is reduced by 1 point per point of success on the Channeling roll. For every 2 full points of Disfavor the channeler currently has with a specific Enaros he suffers a -1 to all Channeling rolls when channeling an orison from that Enaros until the next rising of Lensae.
Routine Channel
All channelers are limited in the amount of power they can channel safely based on how devoted they are to the patron Enaros and the complexity of the orison.
Devotion Standard Complex
Devoted 4 2
Favored 7 4
The codex identifies Complex spells in the “Class” description in parenthesis.
Failed Channel
Failing the Channeling roll simply means the orison is not manifested and Disfavor increases with the patron Enaros by 1 plus 1 for every 2 points of failure unless the channeler is Sanctified, in which case there is no Disfavor.
Blessed Channel
The channeling is performed perfectly and the orison is intoned with little or no effort. The orison either does not increase Disfavor or increases it by half the normal amount (minimum 1) and it is intoned at maximum effect (channeler’s choice).
Additionally, the target of the orison receives +1 to his next action, having been temporarily blessed by the patron Enaros. If the action is very appropriate for the patron Enaros’ purposes this bonus is increased to +2. If the next action requires only an effect roll (e.g. contest of STR or a PRE attack) the bonus is an additional +1d6 of effect (+2d6 if directly serving the Enaros’ purposes).
Relieving Disfavor
Once per day per Enaros the channeler may attempt to appease a god and relieve some Disfavor. This ritual prayer requires 1 Turn at 0 DCV. Failure consumes 5 minutes of time and provides no bonus to the attempt.
The channeler then attempts a Theology + Piety roll (use PRE roll -3 if no Theology). Success removes 1 Disfavor, plus 1 additional per 2 success.
Regardless, all Disfavor with all Enaros is relieved at dawn.
The Enaros
This is the Highhome, the Divine Center, and the Origin, reflecting the gestalt power of all the gods. It forms the foundation of enarosian religious practice. The symbol shows a single ray for each of the Enaros, excluding Endroren, whose light no longer shines from Lensae. All intonations of light and goodness have their origin here.
Aelos, Keeper of Mysteries
Alantra, the Great Mother
The eldest of the Enaros, Alantra is the embodiment of healing, fertility, and protection. She is the Enaros of the hearth and home, and the chosen Enaros of the Tsaals. She is the patron of those providing safety and protection.
Droth, Lord of Trial
War, hardship, and challenge are all the domains of Droth. Despite the sorrow often associated with his work he is not considered evil. Only through trial can one grow to their strongest potential, and thus trial is simply a necessity of life. He is the chosen Enaros of the Drothmal and the patron of warriors.
Elendra, the Muse
Elendra is the patron of bards and the protector of true love. She is beautiful, wise, and full of love for all things. Artists believe that she provides the inspiration for all art, regardless of form or scope. She also embodies commitment, and so her name is often called upon at weddings and in contractual agreements. She is the chosen Enaros of the Elliya.
Endroren, Lord of Darkness
Endroren transcends the mortal understanding of evil: embodying a perfect, timeless, and infinite evil simply known as Darkness. Originally Lord of Sorcery, Endroren became the master of cruelty, deception, and slavery when he embraced Darkness. He is the chosen Enaros of all endrori and the patron of all who walk in the shadows.
Grethken, Father of the Forest
Grethken is the embodiment of plants, earth, harvest and the wilderness. His strength gives life to the forests and bountiful growth to farmers’ fields. He is Lord of the harvest and is celebrated every autumn for his gifts. He is often venerated with his lover, Vale, as the keepers of the wilds. Grethken is the chosen Enaros of the Tsaals and patron of rangers and scouts.
Larayil, Sky Keeper
Larayil is the mistress of winds, impulse of action, and queen of the sky. She is also the patron of archers and sailors. Like the wind she is fickle, changeable, and can be incredibly powerful if brought to a fury. She also embodies superficial beauty. Larayil is the chosen Enaros of the Faelariya.
Modren, Forge Master
As the Forge Master, Modren embodies construction, fire, and order. He is the keeper of the Solar Forge and is the smith of Lensae. He makes ideas real and turns chaos into order. His power cleanses through fire or transformation, as he is the patron of renewal and craftsman. He was the chosen Enaros of the Tsverg until the Age of Darkness.
Phensral, the Sea Father
Father of the Sea, Phensral is the master of waves and water. From the smallest river to the raging torrent he is their lord and keeper. His power ranges from the crush of waves upon the shore to the trickle that eventually carves a valley. He is also the embodiment of change and thus the patron of all who seek new experiences.
Toletren, Lord of Knowledge
Lord of Knowledge, Toletren is the Keeper of History, the Master of Logic and the Watcher. Toletren embodies truth in its rawest form and his guidance is sought whenever answers must be found. He is the judge of facts and conclusions, without the concept of vengeful justice. What others do with the truth is of little concern to him. Although he did not create them, Toletren has become the chosen Enaros of the Newardin. Toletren is also the patron of essence shapers since the arrival of the Atlan.
Vale, the Huntress
All the beasts of Narosia are the children of Vale. She is their keeper and protector and she assumes their form to move among them. Her heart is feral and she embodies instinct. Violence is in her nature only in so far as it is a part of the natural order. Vale is the chosen Enaros of the Loriya and the patron to shepherds, hunters, and beastmasters.
Zevas, the Lord of Webs
Zevas embodies planning, commerce, and illusion. He is the master of the Web of Fate and can navigate its strings better than any other Enaros. He is the patron of merchants and diplomats but also of thieves. This has caused the people of Narosia to be wary of him even if they still respect him as an Enaros, although the Cheebat seem to favor him more than any other Enaros.
The Orison Template
This book uses a standard format to present all orisons. Each formatting entry is described below.
Target specifies Self, Accurate (target DCV is always 3), Single (any single point or character), or Area. Area is defined in the spell description.
Range can be Self, No Range, Touch, Limited, Standard, or Thrown.
Duration can be Instant or Constant, and possibly Boon, Blessing, or Extended Blessing.
Boons are usable once at any point in the future, or until the next sunrise.
Blessings are usable at any time in the future, or until the next sunrise. However, after the first use the blessing begins to fade. Starting at 14-, the target rolls immediately after the first use. If successful, the orison remains in effect for one more use, otherwise the orison fades. Each subsequent use requires a roll at a cumulative -1 per use (this is the same as the Burnout option for the Requires a Roll Limitation). Constant duration defensive powers count a “use” as every time the defensive power is applied (e.g. to stop damage). If a defensive power is unused after it is initially activated it fades just as any other Constant powers.
All other Constant duration powers count a “use” as a step down the time chart with the roll decreasing at twice the penalty (-2) per step.
Extended Blessings cover a single task or skill roll with a specific duration defined in the text, but no greater than until the next sunrise.
Tone may be Cant, or Prayer.
Class defines whether the orison is an Offensive, Defensive, or Utility orison, and whether or not it is Complex.
Description is the block of text immediately below the orison information block and summarizes the overall game effect and utility of the orison.
Magnitude summarizes the effect of the orison when channeled at different Magnitudes.
Effect is the game effect of the orison.

Invigoration (Alantra)
Target:
Single
Range: Touch
Duration: Instant
Tone: Cant
Class: Utility (Complex)
This orison has many uses ranging from bolstering those in battle to helping the incapacitated heal themselves by temporarily putting them in a recovery state where they can use their personal REC. In addition, this orison temporarily restores END equal to twice the amount of STUN rolled, unless the target is still below 0 STUN after the orison is applied. For example, if a character is at -50 STUN they would normally be unable to recover without the use of a healing orison. Yet generating 50 points of STUN healing in a single orison is quite challenging ﾐ only the most blessed of healers would be capable. Using Invigoration a channeler would be able to easily put the target at -30 STUN (and have no effect on END), at which point the target would be able to recover normally before the additional STUN from the orison faded.

⦁ Only Restores To Starting Values (-1/2)

The most basic of healing orisons, this is most often used to revive someone who is unconscious (e.g. excessive STUN) or when healing is needed in haste (e.g. in combat). Multiple intonations of this orison within a five minute period can only maximize the STUN healing — BODY healing must still be healed all or nothing with a single intonation, although if a subsequent intonation would heal more BODY the higher value can be applied (if a previous healing did not actually heal the BODY of a lesser wound).

A more advanced form of healing, this orison is far more effective in healing more grievous injury than Simple Healing. A casualty may benefit from both Wound Repair and Simple Healing at the same time. To heal an Impairing or Disabling wound the healer must succeed at a Healing skill roll, with a penalty of -1 per 2 full points of BODY damage in the wound. Success will heal (remove) the Impairing or Disabling effect if the result of the Healing dice is sufficient to heal the wound. Failure will still allow the wound to be healed, if the dice roll is sufficient, but the Impairing or Disabling effect becomes permanent. A healer may attempt a subsequent SS: Medicine roll to see that the wound is not going to heal properly and stop the prayer. This has no adverse affect other than the time and potential Disfavor from the initial prayer, and the healer may try again. A healer may use herbs, medicines, and tools to improve his Healing skill roll during the prayer.

Mend (Modren)
Target:
Single
Range: Touch
Duration: Instant
Tone: Prayer
Class: Utility
This prayer allows a channeler to restore crafted objects to their original state. Crafted objects include all things worked by hand or tool. Repairs may only be made to that which has been transformed by skill. This means all metal objects, seams, joints, fasteners and such can be repaired, while tears in cloth, splintered wood or beams, and shattered stone cannot. A block wall could be partially repaired if the blocks are intact, but since the stone was more or less in a natural state the stone itself cannot be repaired. It is the craftsmanship that is being restored not necessarily the integrity of the object.
Common Modifiers:
⦁ Prayer (Extra Time (Full Phase), Concentration (0 DCV); -1/2)
⦁ Crafted Object BODY Only (+0)
⦁ All or Nothing (-1/2)
