About this environment

Fighting Gods (or their manifestations) should not be treated lightly. Banes and Boons should help emphasize the cost of defying as well as the resilience and tenacity mortals.
This is being used as a part of the Final Fight for my campaign.

Remember, “Even a God can bleed”.
