Charges with Restricted Recovery?

[Christougher]

If a power with Charges has Restricted Recovery, how does that interact with the default rule of charges 'resetting overnight'?  

 

Does the character lose all previous charges in the morning and have to perform the Restricted Recovery action to gain them each day?

 

Or in the interests of game balance, dramatic license, etc. does he keep the charges until they're all used, and then perform the Restricted Recovery.

 

(When the restricted recovery involves a human sacrifice, it's important to figure out how fast the bodies start piling up.)

Yes, hiding the bodies is crucial!

 

If a character has Charges of any sort, the unused ones aren't "lost" each day if not used. They remain, like the bullets in a gun or the charges in a magic wand, until used. Restricted Recovery just affects how a character can get them back once he uses them.
