The target gains +2 Strength and +2 Constitution and recovers 1 Hit Point per hour while the spell lasts. The subject does not need to sleep during the duration and feels rested.

When the spell ends, the target must rest one additional hour for every hour spent under its effect.

Material component: a safely sourced herb or plant associated with vitality, such as marigold seed or mandrake root, consumed by the target as part of the rite.

Edition Boundary

The direct ability-score increases, hourly healing and rest debt are legacy mechanics. Modern editions should use their own exhaustion, resting and ability-score rules.
