The Blessings of the Seven

The Gerudo revere the Seven Heroines, divine guardians of the Desert. It is said that each Heroine possessed a different power: Skill, Spirit, Endurance, Knowledge, Flight, Motion, And Gentleness. At the start of each day, you may pray to the Heroines and choose two of the following skills: Combat, Charisma, Constitution, Intelligence, Strength, Dexterity, and Wisdom. For each of the two traits chosen, you gain one point of inspiration that can be used on any checks or saves that rely on that skill trait.
