When she users her magical abilities, they are accompanied by glowing brighter, or a flash of light.

She'll use her first aid and medical kits to treat minor injuries and save her mana for the more seriously injured or to protect civilians or the weakest members of her group. [B]Guardian of Light[/B] With a flash of white light as a standard action, Alisa can create a shield using 12 mana, around herself or an ally within 50 feet, that can absorb 26 points of damage, with DR 5, fire, cold and electricity resistance 5 and lasts for 1 minute.

The medical tricorder is a specialized scanning device made by Starfleet designed to help doctors and others in the medical field diagnose patients quickly and efficiently. It functions as a standard tricorder, but has a removable hand scanner to allow the user to scan more focused areas. Functions as a GPS, chemicomp, geocomp, both granting only +3 to checks, motion sensor (30 ft range), medicomp +5 to Treat Injury checks, medical database with basic information on over 50 different species, functions as MRI and CAT scanner with use of hand unit a range of only 5 inches (takes about 6 minutes to do full scan). Detect energy signatures and lifeforms (can identify the lifeform's species if has their data programmed) out to 1500 feet, emit distress beacon, wireless modem. Weight: 5 lbs PDC: 17 (14 for Starfleet Medical personnel). [B]White Mana[/B] If a being uses White Mana to power an ability, spell, etc, if it heals, grants bonus to defense, resistances, increase fixed numbers by 25%, variable numbers increase by 1 die. Abilities with a duration longer than 1 round are increased by 50%, rounding down. Mana abilities that use White mana that fall into these categories have their mana cost reduced by 25% rounding down. [B]Feat: Mana Manipulation (General, Mana)[/B] Prerequisites: Intelligence 4+ Benefits: The user can use raw magical energy, or mana, for use in some basic magical abilities, or can use it to power their class magical powers. Alternatively, they can use their class magical abilities and convert them to mana. A person has mana point pool that is equal to their Intelligence, and requires a minimum of 4 Intelligence, and is able to manipulate mana in a few basic ways. A character with a class with spell slots can use their mana to power their magic, using mana to equal the spell slot level to power a spell. For example, a level 3 spell requires three mana points to power, while a single mana point is required to power a level 1 or level 0 spell. A user can recover mana at a rate of 1 per hour of rest +1 per Wisdom Modifier (negative modifier does not reduce recover, just doesn't increase, functions as +0). The user can also use mana to provide the spell slots for when using metamagic feats, such as empower spell, etc. Alternatively they can use a spell slot to create mana, with the spell slot level equaling mana points, thus a level 3 spell slot converts into 3 mana points. The user can use this mana in several basic ways, attack, heal, or defense, improve natural ability. For attack, the user can use mana to fire an energy ball from their palm, using 1 mana point to deal 1d4 points of energy (counts as magical) damage plus Int modifier (a negative Intelligence modifier doesn't lower damage, doesn't add any though), with a range of 30 feet plus 10 feet / Int modifier, as a ranged touch attack. For healing, the user can use mana to recover hit points in a creature touched or themselves, using 2 mana points per 1 hit point recovered. Thus if they used 10 mana points, they can heal 5 hit points. For defense, they can create a bubble shield around him/herself for 5 mana points that can function for 1 minute, able to absorb 10 points of damage. Each additional point of mana used increases the amount of damage absorbed by 2, and each 5 points used (while increasing damage absorbed), increases duration for 1 minute. For Improve natural ability, the user can spend 5 mana points to improve 1 ability score by +2 for 3 rounds (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma), or improve one type of their movement by 20 feet for 3 rounds, or any one other racial extraordinary ability (such as darkvision, breathweapon, tremorsense, etc) by 25% for fixed numbers, or 1 extra die if variable number, or duration by 25%, rounding down, for 3 rounds [B]Mana Battery (General, Mana)[/B] You are able to store increased amounts of mana. Prerequisites: Mana Manipulation Benefits: You are able to store and generate larger amounts of mana. You can access a mana point pool of Intelligence x3. If the user also has classes capable of casting spells, gains +2/spell caster level. Also any spell slots converted to mana generate double mana points, thus converting a level 3 spell to mana generates 6 points of mana. Alternatively, converting mana into spell slots uses 50% less mana rounding up, thus to create a level 3 spell slot uses 2 mana. Level 1 and level 0 spell slots still uses 1 mana point. [/QUOTE]
