Edicts and Anathema

Source War of Immortals pg. 79
Mythic Callings each include edicts and anathema. Taking actions particularly in line with your edicts, as determined by your GM, restores a Mythic Point to your mythic pool. Violating your anathema causes you to immediately lose all the Mythic Points you currently have, though this loss isn’t permanent—it’s a setback within your story. Some edicts and anathema might encourage characters to do things that could create problems for them, either now or in the future. This is to be expected. Just like the heroes of the stories mythic rules help emulate, mythic characters might be flawed or find that the purpose of their mythic power is amoral, forcing them to choose between the temporary rewards of power and the long-term good of themselves or their world.
