What does virtue do?

When your hero hit 100 stress (the lil white blocks unde rthe HP bar) they have a crisis with a big splash screen (as you may know). Most often they are afflicted - abusive, hopeless etc. It's a bad thing. Rarely (15% maybe?) they hero who gets stressed decides they're okay, they overcome the dark night of the soul and become "virtuous" - it's an anti-affliction, they heal themselves, or provide pep talks that cure everyone's stress, and for the rest of the mission. You can't count on it, shouldn't plan on it, but get totally stoked when it happens.

There's a unique splash screen and sets of dialouge for it - just like afflictions.

When a character reaches 100 stress there are two outcomes :

- Affliction : a very penalizing state where you lose some control over the character who will start acting in a harmful way toward your team at random, depending on which kind of affliction is developped.

- Virtue : a very profitable state where the character potentially gets free positive buffs and actions every turn benefiting him/herself or the whole team.

Stacking Virtue simply raises the chances a character will go positive rather than negative once hitting resolve check at 100 stress.

Virtues:

Stalwart- Bonus stress and move resist I think.

Powerful- Bonus damage

Vigorous- Randomly heals 5hp each turn.

Focused- bonus ACC and randomly boosts ACC of allies

Courageous- Bonus stress reduction, randomly reduces stress of allies.

I think another trait would be awesome

Inspiring - Buffs the whole team with inspiration from heroes bravery reducing stress by 20 and raising ACC, Dodge, and Speed of everyone by 5 .

Keep the stress reduction, and a damage bous and make the buff only for the virtue character and you have my idea for the Paragon virtue.

That being said, OP should NEVER count on getting a virtue check.

The Base Virtue Chance is 25% and can raise with boni to a maximum of 60%, so you can call yourself lucky when it happens. The Virtue Chance is an invisible chance.
