Healing Touch

The ability to heal most wounds and repair physical injuries using the palms of one's hands. Though most Shadow powers seem to deal with the infliction of injury, or the manipulation of reality in some way, Healing Touch remains a very distinctive exception to the rule, and at first glance one might assume it to be the very same power as the Sunkissed Renewal ability.

However, the difference is that Healing Touch manipulates the shadow in such a way that in draws in small amounts of life energy from surrounding people, plants, and animals, in order to repair the wounds of a single subject, while Renewal draws on power directly from the Light instead.

Thus, though it harbors beneficial attributes to those who may require it, one should not forget the dark methods from which these healing powers stem, and must ensure that they do not lose control of such a power, lest they potentially cause more harm than good.

The severity of the wound or injury dictates the skill roll required to attempt a repair.

'''Note: Although powerful, Healing Touch is not as effective at the restoration and long term repair of bones, fractures, illnesses, and viral infections as the Healing skill is. Healing Touch cannot repair severe fractures or shattered bones, remove poisons, counter toxification, nor cure severe illness.'''
