Bonding Requirements
Some amount of both discipline and empathy seems to be required.
I needed about 120 skill points in Empathy, while needing about 80 in Discipline. Empathy is the main concern. - Cinna, 3:28 PM PST, 12-24-12
Seems somewhat less than that. Was able to bond with 105 empathy and 75 discipline.
Failure Message
You sense a lack of regard from the white-feathered female swan, and dimly feel that she considers you to be insufficiently serious about kindness.
Known Abilities
Combat Bonuses
The swan grants its consort an intrinsic bonus to attack rating equal to 1/4 Martial Arts & 1/10 Dancing skills. Similar bonuses are granted to dodge rating and all deflection ratings. This effect applies to all attacks of all sorts, whether melee or special attacks. Your familiar must be present in your environment to grant these bonuses.
The lynx also grants its consort bonuses to dodge rating and all deflection ratings equal to the character's Cold Affinity skill, Arctic Fieldcraft skill, and one-half Tenacity skill.
Attribute Modifications
Those who form an empathic bond with swans receive bonuses to their Intelligence, Dexterity, Charisma and Perception.
Specialty Bonuses
Extreme
High
Medium
Low
Charms
At "Somewhat Frail"
- Channel spiritual energy into the familiar from oneself
- Channel spiritual energy out of the familiar to oneself
At "Fairly Healthy"
- Cloudweave, the ability to enchant a staff (or similar object) with the power of the clouds, enabling its holder to fly.
At "Very Healthy"
At "Robust"
- Lightgarb, the ability to encase one's body in a protective sheath of light. The light will attempt to absorb damage by drawing on one's radiant energy.
- The ability to recall your conjured followers to your side. To do this, concentrate on recalling the desired follower or followers.
- Summon a minor light amalgamal
At "Resilient"
- The ability to become one with your familiar.
- Intangibility, rarify your form
At "Deep"
- Excite a light elemental to attack faster for a brief period of time before burning out and exploding in a burst of light, potentially harming/healing everyone in the area.
At "Very Deep"
- Visual Displacement the ability to make it appear as though one is standing several dimins from one's actual location. (Illusion, probably Agility, and one other skill)
At "Intimate"
- Summon a major light amalgamal, a much more powerful version of the light spirit
At "Complete"
- The ability to become Invisible
Additional Abilities
Swan familiars open and charge the Anahata chakra and Muladhara chakra periodically and provide several special sword attacks which utilize radiant energy, and one which is usable without swords.
Attack Activity Cost Crescent 8 (Based on your sword speed) Lux Veritas 14 Solar Coil 12 (Also based on your sword speed) Stellar Twist 12 (Again, based on sword speed)
The Crescent attack (at somewhat frail) is a photonic-based attack that adds Light Affinity, Lumiturgy, Wyrding to attacks and Light Affinity & Wyrding to damage. It also requires a normal-sized sword to use.
Lux Veritas (at very healthy) channels the light of truth through your sword strike (Seems to have combined ray of intense light and shaft of true sunlight)
Stellar Twist and Solar Coil (at nearly complete) use Light affinity, Lumiturgy, Telesmatic weapon and more. Stellar Twist may only be used at night and Solar Coil during the day.
Traits Granted
Appears to grant Ambidexterity.
Around 1/3 way in resilient bond, diet changes to photovore.
