abilities_top:
  - name: "Sense Fate"
    desc: " ([[fortune]]);  A norn automatically rolls a 20 when she rolls initiative."
  - name: "Triumvirate"
    desc: "  This functions as the [[coven]] ability, except only norns can join a triumvirate, and it functions only as long as exactly three norns are part of the triumvirate. A triumvirate grants the following spells: [[alter reality]] (once per day), [[cataclysm]], [[Pinpoint]], [[foresight]], and [[revival]]."
abilities_bot:
  - name: "Fated"
    desc: "  When a creature is subject to a [[fortune]] effect from a norn and a [[misfortune]] effect from any source other than a norn (or vice versa), the norn's effect automatically counteracts the other effect and then takes place normally, rather than the two effects canceling each other out. If both the [[fortune]] and [[misfortune]] effect are from a norn, then the two cancel each other out as normal. At the GM's discretion, powerful entities related to fate or luck, like Desna, Magdh, or Pharasma, count as a norn for the purpose of this ability."
  - name: "Sever Fate"
    desc: " ([[necromancy]], [[occult]]);  When a norn deals negative damage with a [[Strike]], she regains 10 Hit Points. The target must succeed at a DC 39 Fortitude save or become [[drained|drained 1]] ([[drained|drained 2]] on a critical failure). Further negative damage dealt by the norn increases the [[drained]] condition value by 1 on a failed save (or by 2 on a critical failure), to a maximum of [[drained|drained 4]]."
  - name: "Shift Fate"
    desc: "⬲ ([[divination]], [[occult]]); __Trigger__ A creature within 120 feet attempts a saving throw __Effect__  The creature rolls the saving throw twice, and then the norn decides which result applies. If the norn chooses the lower roll, this is a [[misfortune]] effect; if she chooses the higher roll, it's a [[fortune]] effect; if they're the same, she decides which trait to apply."
  - name: "Snip Thread"
    desc: "⬺ ([[death]], [[manipulate]], [[necromancy]], [[occult]]); __Frequency__ three times per day  __Effect__  The norn produces a golden thread linked to the fate of a creature within 100 feet of her, then snips it short with her shears. The target takes 100 negative damage (DC 42 basic Fortitude save). If the target is reduced to 0 Hit Points from this damage, the thread is completely severed and the creature dies immediately. A creature slain by Snip Thread can't be restored to life except by miracle, wish, or similarly powerful magic; or by divine intervention. Regardless of the outcome of their saving throw, a creature targeted by Snip Thread then becomes temporarily immune for 24 hours. The norn can't use Snip Thread again for 1d4 (1d4) rounds."
