CLAIM SOUL

Cost: Spend 1 Legend
Duration: Instant
Subject: A dying character
Range: Long
Action: Simple
When someone dies in your presence, you may use this Boon to claim their soul before it proceeds to its
expected destination. Their soul appears before you to pass your judgement. You may send them to an Underworld of your choosing, describing the circumstances of their arrival and their relationship with their new home; transform them into an Ancestor; or you may choose to transform them into an Eidolon (Scion: Origin, p. 31) related to your Pantheon, dispatching them to a Godsrealm.

You may also charge an Eidolon with a task and dispatch them to the appropriate Otherworld to accomplish it, such as guiding other Shades in the Underworld, guarding a particular location, or mentoring a young Scion. For the most part, Eidolons are treated as independent Storyguide characters, but as long as the Eidolon serves you, they may confer +2 Enhancement to an action once per scene to their charge as a divine blessing. You may also use their soul for other purposes, such as to complete a Milestone in crafting or as supporting characters in Intrigue scenes.

  • Judge Specific: Harrowing Test: You may speak directly through your Eidolons to pass on divine warnings. When sent to pass judgement over living targets, you may imbue 1 Legend to possess your Eidolon for the scene, granting them access to your power.
