Editing MTH:Powers A-H (section)

==HEALING==
Class: Gamma

Cost: Varies

Dice Pool: Intelligence + (Medicine) + Healing

Action: Extended

Range: Touch

Area: N/A

Duration: Instant

Effect: This power has three main uses: to treat injury, to treat disease, and to purge poisons or toxins.  In each case, the character must spend one Verve per success in order to gain these effects; if the character has insufficient Verve or chooses not to spend it, any excess successes are wasted.  

If used to treat injury, each success on the activation roll allows the character or her patient to heal one level of bashing damage, or downgrade one level of higher damage.

This power may also be used to regenerate ruined organs or severed limbs, but doing so requires 5 successes per body part and a week of rest for the patient.  

If used to treat disease, the character or her patient may immediately make an additional Stamina + Resolve roll to try and fight off the disease, with a number of bonus dice equal to the number of successes gained on the Healing activation roll.  

If used to purge poisons or toxins, the poison or toxin is successfully neutralized if a number of successes are gained on the Healing activation roll in excess of the substance’s toxicity rating.  

Using Healing is an extended action. The character may choose to continue healing next turn, adding her successes together, up to the number of dice in her unmodified pool. This power only takes effect and costs Verve when the character decides to stop rolling, and the character may roll a number of times up to her effective Stamina. Each roll takes one turn. 

By spending 1 Verve before rolling, the character can extend the range of this power to (Power Level + Healing) x 5 yards, taking a -1 penalty to the activation roll per 5 yards.

Extras: 

Efficient - The character need only spend one Verve per roll before rolling to gain the full benefit from Healing, not one Verve per success after rolling. Healing organs does not require the week long rest period.
