At lvl 5, a PC can reach out to their Dark Power to receive Stage 1 their gift At lvl 7, a PC is asked by their Dark Power if they would like more power. If they say yes, gift progresses to Stage 2 If no, the offer stays open. At lvl 9, it's the same as lvl 7, but gift progresses to Stage 3. At any point during this process, a character who has not received their gift yet can call upon their Dark Power and receive all the gifts their level allows At the Amber Temple, they can visit their Dark Power and choose to make a Pact, this unlocks the rest of their gift, but also may have a price to pay. It also condemns them to being trapped in The Domains of Dread.
