Spell Effects & Mechanics
- This spell will restore a character back to life from the Brink of Death and leaves them at 1 Body Point; the Death System is not used. Heal Life must be cast on the character’s body within 5 minutes – 10 minutes if the character has the Coma skill – of their character going to the Brink of Death. The character’s body must be relatively intact and the head must be attached.
- Heal Life will only work on a character once per day – a period of time from 7am to 7am the next day. When you cast Heal Life on a character, you should write “Life” on their Character Card along with the date, time and your initials; this allows another player to verify whether the character has already been lifed earlier that day. If the spell is cast on a character twice in the same day, the second use has no effect.
- A character restored by a Heal Life is restored to the state of health they had when last alive: broken limbs, diseases, amnesia, insanity, intoxication, etc. The Heal Life spell is not a substitute for any other spell of the Healing school.
- Heal Life is the equivalent of a Kill spell to an undead. If a character has been turned into an undead and then killed, Heal Life will not restore the character.
- The difference between this spell and Return Spirit is that Return Spirit will work on a body no matter how long the character has been dead, restores the character to full Body Points, and requires use of the death system; Heal Life only works within a limited amount of time, restores the character to 1 Body Point, and does not use the Death System.
- This spell cast upon a living character, a character that is Bleeding to Death, or a character who is Mortally Wounded has no effect and does not use up that character’s ability to receive a Life spell for that day.
