Here is a varient idea about using the composure instead of a feat for embracing the source more quickly than a full round action. Feats are few and far between and skills come every level. Composure is also a channeler class skill so the mechanic makes sense.

New Skill Use Composure: Embracing the source

Embrace the source as a Move Action: Comp DC 20

Embrace the source as a Free Action: Comp DC 30

If you miss the DC by more than 5 you must make a fortitude save (DC15). If you succeed at the fortituted save, you are unhamed by your attempt to embrace the scource. If you fail, the result depends on how badly you failed the roll. Subtarct your saving throw result from the DC and consult the table on Page 163 of WoT Rpg.

That's a pretty neat idea, and seems thematically appropriate (as Rand grew better at attaining the Void, embracing the Source grew easier and faster as well).

Submit this to the netbook, I say!

I like it, Steve. I was thinking about ways to embrace quicker last week and I wasn't satisfied with a Feat method. This makes since and doesn't cost an Feat to do it. I agree. Submit it to the netbook. [Big Grin]
