VICTORY DECK
For each single combat you win, you may draw one card from the victory deck.
The Experience Points (ep) are collected as one party. They are required
for certain skill prerequisites, but they are not used to purchase skills
(example, if the group has 30 ep, they may attach to the appropriate group
member skills with a prerequisite of 30 ep). Skill Cards and blessed arms and
armor cards are attached to one character and remains with him (providing he
makes the prerequisites) until he may be defeated in combat.
