Micah 6:6. With what shall I come before the Lord, bow before the Most High G-d? Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings, with yearling calves? 7. Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with myriad streams of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 8. He has told you, O man, what is good, and what the Lord demands of you; but to do justice, to love loving-kindness, and to walk discreetly with your G-d.

Ignition:
[Ah. In that case, Ignition needs to make a power check with an additional +2 modifier]"Weinberg's statement is true as far as it goes, but it is not the whole truth. To make it the whole truth, we must add an additional clause: 'And for bad people to do good things—that [also] takes religion.' The main point of Christianity is that it is a religion for sinners. Jesus made that very clear. When the Pharisees asked his disciples, "Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?" he said, "I come to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance." Only a small fraction of sinners repent and do good things but only a small fraction of good people are led by their religion to do bad things."

[To do some pre-res healing? Cool. OK then.
Healing:
11d20+12+2=25
EDIT: if healing really does only apply to the worst damage condition, I'll have to use a Hero Point to res her before I do that.
That would be Ultimate Effort: 20d20+1+2(CON)=23]Disregard the above.

Before trying another round of Healing, Iggy looks around. "Does anyone have, uh, any reason to suspect that we are being observed right now?"

The Glow:
Somedays, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed.
"RAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
Nobody appreciates what it's like to wake up without the sharp burn of nuclear fury in their lower back. The burned sheets after a night terror. Being able to wake up without the roar of superheated blood behind one's eyes. To wake up....as a normal man.
"RAAAAAAARGH!"
But you do it anyway. Usually, regretting it and the accompanying troubles of the day.
"RAAAAAAAAGH!"
Case in point: while attempting to infiltrate this "Cradle" thing and stopping this stupid dictator's stupid plan to create stupid mummies for his spectacularly stupid world domination scheme with your party...you fell for the old "tiger pit" trap.
"RAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
....with a twist. After sliding through a series of tubes and feeling your way through strange golden corridors you finally find a place that is actually well lit. Only to find the "tiger" of the pit.
"RAAAAAAAAAAGH!"
La Momia! Or at least one of the soldier Mummies that egghead was talking about. If he's anything like your former opponent, this is going to be trouble. If there's one thing worse than facing a berserk mummified monstrosity......
"RAAAAARGH!"
"RAAAARGH!"
.....it's facing two of them.
ATTENTION! Battle Order is as follows:
The Glow
Momia A
Momia B
