"value":"<p>You lock yourself into an immediate mental contest against a rival magician. If the target has no Channelling Skill, you immediately suffer a Minor Miscast. Once begun, you and your target are locked into your duel and you both count as having the Surprised Condition until the contest ends. </p>\n<p>At the start of each Round, perform an <strong>Opposed Channelling</strong> Test. The loser gains +1 Fatigued Condition; if the opposed SL exceeds their Willpower Bonus, they must pass a <strong>Challenging (+0) Endurance</strong> Test or take the Unconscious Condition. If a combatant takes more Fatigued Conditions than their Toughness Bonus, they suffer the Unconscious Condition. </p>\n<p>The duel ends when either combatant takes an Unconscious Condition; an outsider interrupts either duellist, causing both duellists a Surprised Condition from the severed connection; or the winner of that Round decides to end the duel—immediately inflicting +1 Stunned Condition on the loser for each Round that you won. </p>\n<p><strong>Overcast: </strong>For every +1 SL, you may add 1 SL to the first Opposed Test if the Test is successful. </p>"
