Channel

A universal skill that can be used by all creatures with access to Od, Odraka, or Vis, effectively meaning all mortals. Channeling, technically, is an Arsa of its own. Channeling isn't dangerous unless you are channeling Odraka or Vis.

Channeling is when one actively circulates the Od within them, forcing it to flow. The flowing Od is consumed at a steady rate, burned as a fuel by your soul, body, and mind and enhancing each of them for the duration. The larger your Od reserves, the more you can channel, and the more you channel at once, the stronger the perks. For mortals who can only hold too little Od or don't have access to Od, Channeling is greatly limited in its ability and can easily be confused with a simple adrenaline rush. For Mortals who can hold enough Od to effectively use Arsai, Channeling is integral to the use of their Arsa and keeping themselves alive in combat.

While Channeling, the body's senses, resilience, strength, reflexes, and healing are all enhanced. The mind has enhanced clarity, understanding, focus, speed, and the ability to sense Od and Vis.

Channeling can be, and is often, done subconsciously. Once the body knows how to do it, it will automatically consume available Od to heal physical injuries, even if you are unconscious.

Od, within all mortals, will gradually recover on its own up to the maximum Od you can hold.
