GURPS101: Those Who Help Themselves

In my Chronicles of Ceteri campaign Doug Cole is playing a character who can draw on the powers of Heaven to fight evil. One thing that started to bug me recently about GURPS Powers: Divine Favor is how you can attempt to rely on your own abilities without relying on your divine powers and . . . nothing. I'm of the mind that if you're not relying on yourself the divine will probably help you when you really need it. Thus, today's post on two options just for that.

I like the Petitioner Points, it gives a nice little feedback loop and allows for the Character type who only occasionally calls upon their god directly, but when they do oh boy!

I like both, one thing about reversing the Reaction Roll is that while yes t adds time that time is pretty much roleplaying which I consider a good thing.
I already did something like that but nothing so formalized.
