Uses
Charging
- RAISE: To charge the totem, RAISE it while holding a glowing iron fragment in your other hand. The fragment will be returned to the sky. This increases your totem's "fragment count" by 1.
The totem will evolve after returning 4, 10, 18, 28, and 40 fragments. Each time the totem evolves, it will become more elaborate, and a new bonus will be unlocked. At between 45-55 fragments, the totem will "throb and pulse in your hand with latent power yearning to be spent". (It takes around 55 fragments to cap the totem.) Once the totem is capped, additional fragments are not needed.
Bonuses
These verbs can be used, when there is a "soft glowing aura about" the totem. Invoking one of your totem's bonuses will consume some of the totem's charges.
| Bonus | Unlocked At | Verb | Charges Used | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light | 4 fragments | PUSH | 1 | Totem serves as light source. |
| Bless | 10 fragments | WAVE | 2 | Adds 10-30 blessed strikes to held weapon; also works on another person |
| Stat Boost | 18 fragments | POINT | 3 | Boosts one of three stats by 6-10 points. The stat chosen depends on which totem you chose. |
| Skill Boost | 28 fragments | SHAKE | 5 | Boosts some of the wielder's skills. The nature of the boost depends on the whether your totem's deity is a primary (neutral), positive, or negative aspect. Positive aspects boost defensive abilities; negative aspects boost offensive abilities; primary aspects provide a more balanced bonus. |
| Favor | 40 fragments | KISS | 10 | Bestows a favor upon the wielder, so long as the wielder has fewer than 15 favors. |
| RPA | 40 fragments | RAISE | all | Has a 20% chance of bestowing a Level 1 RPA. |
Recharging
Charges (used to invoke a bonus) can only be restored by CLEANing a dirty totem. Only dirty totems can be cleaned; this results in an effective recharge rate of 10 charges per week.
To clean your totem, you must make an appropriate sacrifice at the altar of your totem's deity. For example, if you have a lion totem, you might offer a chain shirt at the altar in Theren Keep.
Using fragments on a capped totem will not recharge it. Doing so merely results in a chance of receiving the RPA bonus described above.
