-{{tag>"​southbysouthwest"​ adventure}}+====Divine Favour: The Mare of Night==== 
 + 
 +The divine favour of the Mare of Night is somewhat unique in its manifestation,​ for the powers of the goddess are invoked by bringing oneself closer to death. Mechanically they are paid for with seconds from your death count rather than being limited by the usual per encounter limit of divine favour miracles. The cost endures over the course of the adventure and only resets at the start of your next adventure. If you use up all your seconds then dropping to 0 hits results in your soul being instantly carried away by the mare. 
 + 
 +===Divine Aura === 
 +You are member of the deathly herd of the Mare of Night and the thunder of skeletal hooves echoes through your soul. This has no effect on the living but upon things spiritual the power of the herd is a thing to be reckoned with.  
 + 
 +Firstly, any who die within your sight (unless you do something else with their soul) are conveyed away by the spectral herd to the realm of the Mare of Night. Once per encounter by spending 10 seconds executing a being possessed of a soul and allowing the herd to carry it off you gain their favour. This adds 5 seconds to your Death Count for the remainder of the Adventure. This allows you to restore time lost through the invocation of the Mare's miracles. 
 + 
 +Secondly, every 15 seconds you may call a FEAR against either a bodiless soul or any being (i.e. minions of the dragons) attempting to carry those souls away. This overcomes any standard immunity to the FEAR call they may possess unless they are unusually potent. 
 + 
 + 
 +===Level 1 miracles=== 
 + 
 +==Mane of Shadows== 
 +You call upon the power of the mare and the shadows length as in the darkness the goddess moves causing terror in those who cling to life. This allows you to call a FEAR at single target. 
 + 
 +This costs 5 seconds of your death count. It cannot affect a target more than once an encounter. 
 + 
 +==Nightrider== 
 +You fall into a death like coma as your soul comes free of your body. As it does so one of the ethereal steeds of the herd of the mare will come to you. The steed will convey your soul wherever you wish at impossible speeds. In this state most physical things will not be able to perceive or interact with you, and you will not be able to affect them though you can observe them and perceive their souls. Spiritual entities will be able to perceive you. This miracle may only be invoked at night and the steed will always return your soul to its body by dawn. 
 + 
 +Use of this miracle while waking allows you to perceive the souls of the dead and other ethereal creatures.  
 + 
 +Invoking this power requires 5 seconds of your death count. 
 + 
 + 
 +===Level 2 miracles=== 
 + 
 +==Death Rampant== 
 +All things must end for no power may stand against the inevitability of death. You invoke the presence of the Mare of Night and in the distance the hollow thunder of the goddesses'​ hooves rumble. For 60 seconds all heal calls in the encounter become ineffective (call EVERYONE IMMUNE HEAL having explained the power in advance) as death comes closer to everyone. You meanwhile are STRENGTHENED while this effect endures. 
 + 
 +Invoking this power requires 10 seconds of your death count. 
 + 
 + 
 +==Summon The Black Steed== 
 +You step closer to the brink of death and open way to the herd-lands of the Mare of Night. A huge shadowy black horse, spectral and cold as night, leaps from your chest and charges at a target of your choosing, galloping straight through them. 
 + 
 +Mechanically,​ you may call a ranged THROUGH DOUBLE at a single target. If this reduces the target to 0 hits they are instantly executed and you will see their soul dragged away in the wake of the great black horse, off into the Mare's realm. Meanwhile, you take a REND from the terrible cold as the black steed leaps from you. 
 + 
 +Invoking this power requires 15 seconds of your death count.
