Effect Tree Reserialization
Getting rid of Effects we don’t want or use to open us up to customize our characters is a relatively lengthy process. Reserialization is mostly for unlocking Crown Effects when we’ve accumulated enough total experience.
Abscission
The voluntary discarding of Leaf Effects to regain xps.
Abscission takes up to a week and one day, (v:8), and is commonly done to learn Crown Effects.
Epiphany: An epiphany is when we discard enough Leaf Effects to learn a Root or Crown Effect instantly.
An Epiphany causes 5 Mental Stress.
This may only be done to learn one Effect at a time.
Pruning: We can regain spent xps by Pruning Root Effects or Crown Effects.
Pruning leaves us Vulnerable for (v:4) days.
Any Branch Effects associated with Root Effects that are Pruned are also lost.
Only one Effect may be Pruned at a time.
Core Effect Trees can not be pruned.
Pruned Effects lose all Oakening.
