Composition
To cast a composition cantrip or focus spell, you usually use a type of [Performance](/Skills.aspx?ID=12). If the spell includes a verbal component, you must use an [auditory](/Traits.aspx?ID=16) performance, and if it includes a somatic component, you must use a [visual](/Traits.aspx?ID=163) one. The spell gains all the traits of the performance you used. You can cast only one composition spell each turn, and you can have only one active at a time. If you cast a new composition spell, any ongoing effects from your previous composition spell end immediately.
Concentrate
An action with this trait requires a degree of mental concentration and discipline.
Focus
A spell you can cast by spending a Focus Point, and that is automatically heightened to half your level rounded up.

Your ode staves off death. The target’s dying condition remains 1 below the value at which it dies. This doesn’t help prevent death from effects that kill the target without increasing its dying condition, such as disintegrate and death effects.
