Effect
Resource cost: 1 Salt Pouch use (consumed).
When you lay a salt circle during camp, it provides enhanced protection beyond the normal effect (preventing spirit intrusion):
- The Tension Pool is reduced by 1 die at the start of rest.
- All ECHO + Resilience checks against Fear made within the circle gain +1 Roll Bonus until dawn.
- Without a salt circle, Strain does not recover during rest. Your enhanced circle additionally allows 1 point of Erosion recovery during a Long Rest inside it (normally Erosion does not recover from rest at all — this is the only mundane method).
