Will Saves
The higher modifier between your Knowledge and Charisma is added to your Will saving throws.
Charisma Mark
Your Charisma mark equals: 8 + PB + Charisma modifier.
If you cast spells through faith, belief, emotion, or the force of your personality, saves against these spells are made against your Charisma mark. Often this includes divine spells and ancestral spells.
If you make an attack using one of these spells, you add your Charisma modifier to the attack roll alongside your PB. No modifier is added to the damage roll.
