Talk:Adithan Varma

Type Bonuses/Downsides

Passive

Earthbones: /9 to Brawl and Intimidate rolls while in direct skin-to-dirt contact with earth.

Telluric: +3 on rolls requiring precise timing; while in mortal world, gain benefit of the Direction Sense merit and always know what time it is.

Woodblood: Gain bonuses to cultivating plants as if possessing Plant Empathy, using Wyrd/2 to determine bonus. Bonus also applies to Stealth and Survival rolls while on soil or natural surfaces. The Woodblood may use this Stealth to conceal herself in naturally growing material even if it logically should not work (i.e. a lawn, a garden, a forest -- not a stand of potted plants).

Earthbones: +1 to non-combat strength rolls; may be used more than once per roll.

Telluric: Once per scene, roll Wits + Occult (plus appropriate modifiers) to make use of the Clairvoyance merit.

Woodblood: Add Wyrd to Stealth rolls made in any vegetation which might conceivably cover the Woodblood.
