Advantages

Gifts of the Storm

It is the essential nature of a Master of the Tempest style to project everything they are and have outwards. Against their enemies, practitioners of this style give gifts of their skill and steel, bringing death and justice. With this technique, the enlightened Tempest learns how to harness their Chi to extend this principle, sharing any healing you receive with your allies.

• This power grants 20% of any healing you receive to allies within 20 feet while Form of the Tempest is active.
• This effect can occur at most once per eight seconds.

Note

• The Gifts of the Storm advantage is now an advantage to Bountiful Chi Resurgence. Form of the Tempest no longer has it.
