This is a system of religious bonuses. As in Pendragon, if you have all five of your religion's virtues at 16 or higher, you'd receive the bonus.If your character has personality traits of 16 or higher in all 5 of her religion's virtues, she may pick one of the bonuses corresponding to her god's runes. For example, if she is a virtuous worshipper of Chalana Arroy (whose virtues are Forgiving, Generous, Merciful, Modest, Trusting, and whose runes are Fertility and Harmony), she could choose either +3 on the Childbirth table (from the Fertility rune) or +2 Healing Rate (from the Harmony rune). The decision must be made when the bonus is first earned.I'm not using this in my campaign yet, but it looks like an interesting addition to PenDragon Pass.
