Meditation
Meditation rolls restore Gnosis equal to the number of successes (capped at your max). You choose your pool and difficulty, but the bot shows a suggested difficulty that escalates each time you meditate (base 8, +1 per meditation). The suggested difficulty resets every 7 sleeps.
You can only meditate once between sleeps.
