Effects by Level
Novice (Level 1)
By rolling a successful Resolute test, the mystic calls forth entangling vines or roots from out of the earth and can ensnare an enemy. The ensnared creature cannot move but can use ranged weapons and powers. The creature is ensnared until the mystic fails a [Resolute←Strong] test, starting the following turn.
Adept (Level 2)
The mystic can ensnare a Chain of creatures. If the mystic manages to ensnare a target with a successful Resolute test, then he or she can attempt to snare another one, and so on until an attempt fails. Starting the following turn, a [Resolute←Strong] test is made for each target to determine how many of them remain ensnared.
Master (Level 3)
The mystic creates an entangling Chain of thorns. Those ensnared with a [Resolute←Strong] test also suffers 1D6 damage per turn from their thorny prison. The sharp thorns find gaps in the targets armor, so any Armor is ignored.
