Paladin Heal in GURPS

Can you have a talent with a Power-based skill among the 5? Or is there a secondary IQ stat that power users/mages could use to boost IQ for the purpose of this power alone? Like a very limited type of Magery?

Not sure how best to model it. He's basically a knight with once per day Lay on Hands (own race only, limited use).

Any assistance appreciated!

Yes the Holy Warrior from dungeon fantasy has a talent which applies to all of their "Holy Might" powers which includes a lay on hand like version of Healing. I think it also modified to go off of Will.

You could easily build it from the ground up, but sense it has already been done for you, just use that it works like a charm.
