| {{:abilities:blessed.png?nolink }} A bless is a set of enhancements and bonuses that apply to a nation's [[sacred]] [[commander|commanders]] and units. The effects of a bless can include bonuses to [[units-attributes|units' attributes]], [[unit-abilities|special abilities]], [[physical-resistance|physical]] and [[elemental-resistance|elemental]] damage resistances, and enhancements to weapons. Most bless effects are activated in combat by blessing a unit, but some are always active both on the strategic map and in combat without need for blessing (termed "innate" in this article). | {{:abilities:blessed.png?nolink }} A bless is a set of enhancements and bonuses that apply to a nation's [[sacred]] [[commander|commanders]] and units.

| When creating a [[pretender|pretender]], a number of options are available for bless effects. The choice of effects is tied to a pretender's [[magic#magic-paths|magic paths]] and is an important part of pretender design. Any level in magic over the first provides one bless point. These bless points can be used to purchase any bless which the pretender's paths fulfil the prerequisites for. Some nations, such as [[mictlan-la|LA Mictlan]] start with bonus bless points. Some effects require certain [[scales|scale]] choices in addition to magic paths. Some options can be taken multiple times, which causes their effects to stack. | When creating a [[pretender|pretender]], a number of options are available for bless effects.

| Additionally, any bless effects which require at least 5 levels in any one path of magic are //incarnate// only, activating only when the pretender god is present on the map. These effects will be inactive both before the pretender awakens and while the pretender is dead. This means that taking a pretender dormant or imprisoned will delay when these incarnate blesses come into effect. | Additionally, any bless effects which require at least 5 levels in any one path of magic are //incarnate// only, activating only when the pretender god is present on the map.
