Description and lore

Living Focus

A living focus might treat breath and posture as the familiar apparatus of spell preparation.

Lore and observations

Familiar breathing settles into a practiced rhythm while the caster’s hands grow still.

The caster's most important ritual may be the moment they stop reaching for their pack.

Rules and details

Requires

Requires: Attune d8.

Companion Handler

Effect

Effect: Safely stabilize spells through Spirit Affinity tier without a separate item. Use the corresponding Focus channel-die ceiling. Normal casting-Affinity access and all other costs remain. This converted scaling replaces Level gates and requires playtest review.

At the table

The caster steadies their hands, leaving the unused focus on the table.
