Shadow of Spring Times Departed

Cr(Mu)He 5 Pen +0, 1x/day R: Per, D: Sun, T: Ind

When Shadow of Spring Times Departed is active, the wooden sections of Ranulf's talisman slowly repair themselves of damage by growing back to their original state. The talisman heals at the speed of well-watered grass growing, and only heals when exposed to sunlight and occasional water. Scratches in the wooden parts of the talisman disappear over the course of few days, while more-substantial damage to the staff could take months to heal. This instilled power naturally cannot be activated if the staff is completely broken. The Creo nature of this power makes the staff grow back to its ideal state rather than shooting forth roots, leaves, and limbs, while the Muto requisite allows dead wood to grow as if it were alive.
