Description | ||
Purify is a deceptively benign sounding name for this effect, which in reality destroys (or attempts to destroy) any impurities in the target substance. This effect is typically used on water, but may be used on food as well. Food that has been purified in this way sometimes tastes a little bland as a result, and using this effect on wine will ruin any subtle tastes associated with fine quality wine. | ||
Effects | |||
This effect typically destroys any "impurities" in the target substance. In most cases, only an Effect Trial is necessary - if the effect succeeds, the substance is purified of Matter impurities. This paradigm often uses the Build Temper Aspect to combine with a similar Destruction/Organic effect to completely purify the target substance. | |||
