Add Mercy to Life #862

The cantrip is only in Deceit currently, but I think it fits Life as an analgesic cantrip.

mlenser commented 3 years ago

It's an illusion.

mlenser commented 3 years ago

Illusions belong only in the Deceit theme.

If you want to make a variant that lives in the Life theme, one could be added. Not sure how it'd be flavored.

Marcloure commented 3 years ago

Something like:

As an action, you provide succor to an ailing creature you can touch, relieving its suffering for the duration.

The creature must make a Fortitude (Will?) saving throw. On a failure, it no longer feels any physical pain or discomfort.

It's an anesthetic and soothing effect, so I feel like this fits Life.

mlenser commented 3 years ago

anesthetic would be poison.

Marcloure commented 3 years ago

I mean a magical anesthetic, not a quimical/biological one

mlenser commented 3 years ago

Anesthetics as we humans know them come from plants or animals.

This needs proper flavor. If you want a Life version then please create one with full flavor.

Marcloure commented 3 years ago

What about:

Soothe

5 minutes

As an action, you relieve the suffering of a willing creature you can touch, soothing its pain for the duration. The creature no longer feels any physical pain or discomfort.

As it is not an illusion, it can't be perceived as false, but you also can't soothe someone unwillingly.

Soothe added to the Life theme.
