Don't forget that they can regenerate!

Does this show up on your stat sheet or did you find out by raising a
stat?  What was your costs before the pendant?  I am sure that a mino
with a 16 cost to raise dex would not get a 12 point ep lowering of
cost.  That would be only 4 to raise dex!  It must hinge upon current
cost as to how much ep credit you get.  Reguardless, I do like this
rebate idea!

Please keep up the good investigative work!  I rather doubt it will do
much for a non mino species though...  I think Falstaff is doing a study
of it rather soon.  Would be interested in what he finds.

Later..
