Many spells (such as Bane, Bless, and Protective Ward) generate an emanation around the caster, that gets larger whenever the spell is Sustained. This module includes macros for most of these (I've found a couple that don't yet).

These macros are set up so that it attaches a custom effect to the token, such that you can increase the counter on it to make the aura larger. This doesn't immediately update; you have to first increase the counter, then move the token, then cycle the counter up and down to get it to register the correct size.

In addition, the visual effect remains at the initial size (usually a 5-foot emanation) regardless of the size of the effect template.

The auras come from the base PF2e system, any oddities about it are to be directed towards the system.

As for the animations, they were made before you could easily increase the radius of the auras and required using macros. PF2e Workbench has a "Update Aura Radius" macro that has additional code to increase the size of the aura animation.

It's on the to-do list to make the auras responsive to the actual aura changes rather than attached to a single macro, but its not urgent.

The initial size being wrong is due to a bug in the macro.

For Bless, the Bless macro in "PF2 Animation Macros" compendium needs to be updated to read "aura-bless" rather than "aura-effect-bless".
It might be the same issue with Bane, which uses "aura-effect-bane"
