Episodic

The Episodic Ability Time indicates that an Ability is used at the start of a new Encounter. Episodic Ability effects are generally limited to the arch of each Episode, so any unspent points or unused effects will be lost the moment the next Episode starts and the Ability is used again. In the same vein, using up all of your Episodic effects before an Episode ends may mean you have to wait till the next Episode, and the next use of your Episodic Ability, to use its effects again.
