Once per mission, for the rest of this Turning Point, whenever an ADEPTUS CUSTODEES operator takes the fight action, it may take another right after, and whenever they take damage, they reduce the damage by 1 and receive a "Golden Persitance Token" however they suffer -2 DF. At the start of the next Turning Point, all Golden Persitance Tokens are removed from the board and each ADEPTUS CUSTODEES operator takes mortal wounds equal to the number of "Golden Persitance Tokens" where removed from them.
