What are Healing Spells?]
Healing spells (see the addendum) are split off from Utility spells and will have a spell type of H for Healing. Since these spells are beneficial in nature, they normally do not get a Resistance Roll. However, a character may actively resist these spells. In such cases, the spell provokes a normal RR.
The spell Lifegiving will remain a Utility spell. If the soul/spirit/ka/spark of life/aura/whatever of the person to be brought back to life does not want to return to life, then he will not.
