Willpower—also called “Will” or “Charisma”—is one of the six ability scores.
Willpower represents confidence, bravery, and determination. High Willpower often correlates with having a charming personality, commanding presence, or influential charisma.
Will Checks
A Will check arises when you take the Influence action, and virtually any time you try to sway others. Possibilities include:
- Dissuade violence, or instigate it
- Make an impression
- Foster friendships
- Tell a story in a captivating way
- Entertain others
- Make a cordial request with proper etiquette
- Deliver a good joke
- Spread gossip
- Gather rumors
- Act, as in a stage play
- Navigate a tricky social situation
- Intimidate others whether through overt threats, physical actions, or subtle wordplay
- Tell a convincing lie or otherwise manipulate the truth
- Pull off a con
- Invent music or improv with a musical instrument
- Deliver an impressive performance for an audience, or overcome stage nerves
- Dance
Will Saves
A Will save is made to resist losing self-control and to repel effects that would otherwise suppress your personality. This often includes charm or other mind control, fear, ghostly possession, many thought-affecting spells, and unwanted social pressure.
Will Mark and Attack Rolls
Your Will Mark equals: 8 + PB + Willpower modifier.
If you cast spells through faith, belief, emotion, or the force of your personality, saves against these spells are made against your Will mark. Often this includes divine spells and ancestral spells.
If you make an attack using one of these spells, you add your Willpower modifier to the attack roll alongside your PB. No modifier is added to the damage roll.
