Spell Effects & Mechanics
- When invoked, this spell provides the character with a 4 Threshold, which negates all physical attacks on the target character that delivers 4 points of damage or less, for 5 minutes. If a blow does 5 or more points of damage, Fortitude will not block it.
- If a character is under the affects of a Fortitude spell, then it takes a Waylay that does 5 or more points of damage to knock them unconscious. A Fortitude spell does protect a character from a Killing Blow, provided the damage done by the Killing Blow is four points or less and the spell’s duration has not expired.
- The Threshold provided by a Fortitude spell does not protect the character from any spells, only physical attacks are stopped and cannot be stacked with other Thresholds. As a rule, Thresholds do not add, only the most protective Threshold protects the character.
- Once a Fortitude spell is invoked, it is no longer a latent spell and is considered an active spell. A character cannot invoke a Fortitude spell as a defense to an attack, they must already have the spell active to gain the benefits of the spell.
