Editing Boon of the Guest

'''[Boon of the Guest]''' is an Inn-related '''Boon Skill''' that bestows temporary abilities upon someone else.

==Skill Effects and Capabilities==
The Skill bestows a target with abilities consistent with a previous guest of the user's. It can only be active on one person, and does not grant anything from individuals that have visited the establishment but cannot have been considered patrons. It works even if the guest is deceased, and granted across great distances, but does not fully work if the guest is a classless Rulebreaker. The Boon can be reapplied in 20 minutes minimum, faster than [<nowiki/>[[Boon of the Princess]]], but is more temporary and cannot stay on a target indefinitely.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2020/11/22/7-60/ Chapter 7.60]</ref> 

It also imparts some of their personality and perspective. It is not guaranteed to provide Skills like other Boon Skills, though the recipient may get a vision of the ability donor, and perhaps have a conversation with a mental recreation of them.<ref name=":0">[https://wanderinginn.com/2023/01/29/9-34/ Chapter 9.34]</ref> The Boon has an emotional component and feels personal for the User to grant, as if it's gifted from the guest to the target. The strength of the Boon is also affected by how hard the User throws the Skill to the target.<ref name=":0" />
