The Liturgies of your faith are a contextual guide to the levels of power you can call upon.
Favour may be used in one of two ways for Invocation:
- Before Rolling, you can offer any number of Favour points to allow you to re-roll that many dice. You can stop at any time but you have to keep the final result.
- After rolling, if the result is more than 12 you can use Favour points, but can’t re-roll each dice more than once.
Every re-roll adds a Round to the time needed for Invocation. If your Invocation has an ongoing effect or you gain Inopportune Favour, roll below to determine how long it lasts. When the time ends you can offer another Favour point to roll again and prolong the effect.

With a few moments assesment you can determine the relative strength of another in relation to yourself
Mystics of Maiz are resistant to mundane pain and cannot be coerced with it
You may also attempt to heal wounds, sickness, and curses.
(One attempt only.)

Mystic Level 1
In the order of minor aspects of fire, shouting, feats of strength and belligerence
Mystic Level 3
In the order of the sparking of blood fury, rousing monotonous singing, minor porcine transformations
Mystic Level 5
In the order of war-sound, bestowal of significant aspect of the boar, the infliction of pain
Mystic Level 7
In the order of feats of head crushing, eye gouging, teeth ripping strength, major aspect of fire
Mystic Level 9
In the order of rampant conflagrations, transforming into the avatar of Maiz, the War Boar
Gain Favour with Maiz by performing actions that please him.
- Smash the skull of a living enemy
- Destroy something beautiful
- Eat a ritual meal of splintered bone
- Perform a significant act of vengeance, for yourself or another
- Refuse sleep
- Provoke an act of mass violence
- Kill a Mystic (of any god), shatter his skull and stamp his brains into the dirt
Invocation requires either something immediately obvious that would please Maiz, or the result of this table:
|
d6
|
Minor Devotion
|
|
1
|
Promise of a pleasing offering.
|
|
2
|
Short-term abstinence or indulgence.
|
|
3
|
Manifest something holy from your flesh.
|
|
4
|
Perform a sacred ritual.
|
|
5
|
Recount your deeds (offer d4 Favour points)
|
|
6
|
Religious fever (roll on Duration table).
|
You must agree to undertake a quest or something equally weighty for Maiz in order for the Invocation to be successful. If you already have one unfinished and you roll another, the Invocation simply fails.
You are honoured with a manifestation of Maiz’s blessing, though the timing could be better. Roll on Duration table unless you used Favour for the roll, in which case the effect is permanent.
Gain d4 points of Favour.
Your body shreds in the birthing of a terrible avatar of your god, roll on Duration table then roll up a new character. In the case of a Restore/Purge roll it is the target that erupts.
Maiz’s influence manifests as a mutation of His animal aspect. Roll on Duration table unless you used favour for the roll, in which case the effect is permanent.
Oh, gosh, this isn’t quite what you meant to happen. Take a look at the GM, he’s rolling on a table. This isn’t good.
Mindless, uncontrollable worship until the duration ends.
