Favor
FAVOR
The cats have the prerogative to award the neverborn with tokens of their favor. These favors can be used in exchange for a number of benefits. Each cat has different terms by which they award their favors, but they share common guidelines, as detailed below. It is known that the cats are greedy creatures and do not give their favors lightly, players must earn them through action in play.
- A cat’s favor award may not exceed an amount dictated by that character’s level – Level 1-4 (2 Favor), Level 5-8 (4 Favor), Level 9-12 (6 Favor), Level 13-15 (8 Favor), Level 16+ (10 Favor)
- A cat may award favor to a single character no more than once per session. Thus a single player cannot have a good night and run away with a bunch of favor.
- Favor may be used as a balancing tool for award following an expedition’s conclusion, treat favor as a single-use magic item of comparable value.
- Each character maintains their own discrete total pool of favor. A character may stockpile and hold an amount of favor equal to his three times his character level (Thus, a level 3 neverborn could save up to 9 Favors). Any favors earned beyond this are lost; players must spend them.
USING FAVOR
To use the favor gained by the clowder they serve, a neverborn must accumulate a total of 3 Favors. At this point the cat will undergo a dangerous ritual on behalf of the neverborn which will incarnate them fully into reality, ceasing to be dream stuff. Once this is accomplished, remaining favors may be exchanged for rewards.
