By making physical contact with a subject, you may immediately take on his injuries. These affect you even if you have specific immunities to them. They get better at the usual “natural” rate unless cured via medicine or a special ability. You may heal subjects of your own race and any “similar” races (GM’s call); e.g., a human can heal other humans but not dogs or plants.

Your casting roll is at -2 if the subject is unconscious. In addition, if used more than once per day on a given subject, you are at a cumulative -3 per successful healing. Failure costs you 1d FP instead of the usual 1 FP!

Statistics: Healing (Empathic, -50%; Injuries Only, -20%; Sorcery, -15%) [6].
