Form: Charm
Function: Defence
Power Cost: 1 to 4, Variable
Duration: Enduring
Notes: Physical


Based around the same principles as resurrection, the charm created by Life Binding strengthens the bonds of life-force that tie its user's spirit to his physical body, protecting him from Shock and helping to keep him alive even when he is badly hurt.

In addition, the effects of Life Binding linger briefly even after death – allowing its user to take one more turn even after a result of Death on a Trauma Check. Freed from the normal bonds of life, and tied to his body by a tenuous thread of magic, he experiences a brief moment of euphoria that allows him to ignore any and all Injury Penalties on his final turn.

Durability: Power x 2
Trauma Check Bonus: +1
Shock Resistance: Power /2 (round down, subtracted from all instances of Shock suffered)
Life After Death: Grants its user one final turn, without Injury Penalties, before death takes them
