Something of uncommon rarity requires special training or comes from a particular culture or part of the world.

Cleric

Focus
A spell you can cast by spending a Focus Point, and that is automatically heightened to half your level rounded up.
Light
Light effects overcome non-magical darkness in the area and can counteract magical darkness. You must usually target darkness magic with your light magic directly to counteract the darkness, but some light spells automatically attempt to counteract darkness.
Manipulate
You must physically manipulate an item or make gestures to use an action with this trait. Creatures without a suitable appendage can’t perform actions with this trait. Manipulate actions often trigger reactions.
Vitality
Effects with this trait heal living creatures with energy from the Forge of Creation, deal vitality energy damage to [undead](/Traits.aspx?ID=160), or manipulate vitality energy.
These planes are awash with life energy. Colors are brighter, fires are hotter, noises are louder, and sensations are more intense. At the end of each round, an undead creature takes at least minor vitality environmental damage. In the strongest areas of a vitality plane, they could take moderate or even major vitality damage instead. While this might seem safe for living creatures, vitality planes present a different danger. Living creatures regain an amount of HP each round equal to the environmental damage undead take in the same area. If this would bring the living creature above their maximum HP, any excess becomes temporary HP. Unlike normal, these temporary HP combine with each other, and they last until the creature leaves the plane. If a creature’s temporary HP from a vitality plane ever exceeds its maximum HP, it explodes in a burst of overloaded vitality energy, spreading across the area to birth new souls.

Drawing life force into yourself, you become a beacon of vitality. You glow with bright light in a 30-foot emanation (and dim light to the next 30 feet), and you gain an internal pool of light called a luminance reservoir, which begins with a value of 4. At the start of each of your turns, increase your reservoir by 4.
If an undead creature damages you with an attack or spell while it’s within the bright light of your aura, that creature takes vitality damage equal to half your luminance reservoir value. It takes this damage only the first time it damages you in a round.
You can Dismiss this Spell. When you do, you can target a creature within your light and direct the vitality energy into it. The target must be a willing living creature or an undead creature. This heals a living target or deals vitality damage to an undead target equal to your luminance reservoir’s value. If you Cast this Spell again, any previous casting ends.
Heightened (+1) Both the initial value of your luminance reservoir and the amount it increases each turn increase by 1.
