Spirit Ward
Cost: 2 Point/Rank
Relevant Ability: Wisdom
Progression: The character's Spirit Ward inflicts +1 damage/Rank; targets suffer a -1 Will save penalty/Rank.
Optional: Fatigue
A character with this Attribute can create potent spirit wards against demons, ghosts, or other supernatural spirits. This might only be possible at an appropriate holy place such as a shrine, temple, or church; this is up to the GM. A supernatural entity cannot pass through a doorway, window, or other portal with a ward on it unless the entity expends great effort (spending 1 Action Point per Rank of the ward and making a successful Will Save against DC 15 plus the Rank of the ward). Repeated attempts are possible as long as the creature still has Conviction to spend. If the entity does pass through, the spirit ward might burst into flame or otherwise vanish, its power overcome by the intruder.
If a supernatural entity is struck with a spirit ward (this requires a successful attack in combat), it suffers +1 damage per Rank of the ward for every round the ward is in contact with it. If a Spirit Ward is placed on a person who is possessed by or under the Mind Control of a supernatural entity, the controlled character receives a chance to break free.
