Story Awards
Blessed of Ubtao
Your understanding of the maze of life has pleased the great god Ubtao. To save his people, the god has granted you the ability to foresee your own failures and react accordingly. Once before the end of this event, you can undo any action you take after it has been resolved. This could be an action taken during combat, or a character action you describe to the DM outside of combat. Time literally resets to the moment before the action was taken, yet you remain cognizant of its outcome.
Dark Promise
