- Blackblood: You’ve learned how to gain control of your dark side for the sake of soaking up damage. As a free action, you can choose to enter a Controlled Berserk state, waiving the Control costs of all your Blackblood abilities until the start of your next turn and changing your natural resistances to certain damage types. However, you will lose an amount of Control whenever you take damage equivalent to (damage taken * 2 / your max HP). At the start of your next turn, you must pass a DC 15 CHA save to gain control of yourself again and exit your Controlled Berserk state; otherwise you will become completely berserk. The DC of this save increases by 5 for each successive round you spend temporarily berserk, and is only reset when you spend an entire round without entering Controlled Berserk.

- Whiteblood: You’ve learned how to project the divine energy within you outwards into a physical barrier. When you gain Divinity, you also gain temp HP equivalent to 2x the Divinity gain (or in other words, you gain temp HP equivalent to the excess healing). Your temp HP halves at the start of your first turn each round. You no longer lose Divinity when you take damage to your HP; however you will lose Divinity equivalent to the amount of temp HP you have after it halves at the start of your turn.
- Whitebone: You’ve learned how to rely on your entire team to stabilize your divine madness. Whenever you are about to take damage, you multiply the incoming damage by 3x and split it evenly amongst all of your teammates, taking none of it yourself.
