Pael's Flesh

Pael's Flesh

Ancient
Gain an additional at the start of your 3rd turn, and every turn after that.
  • From turn 3: your maximum Energy is 1 higher, so a 3-Energy character refreshes to 4 on turn 3 and every turn after.
  • Not turns 1 and 2: it is a max-Energy modifier, not a one-off gain.
  • Before then: the relic shows the current turn number so you can see it coming.
  • The relic: lights up when it kicks in and resets at the end of combat.
