Favor Cost
The base favor cost for Symbol of Sleep is dependent on the member's level (not member's rank). See Order of Voln Symbols table [1] for specific examples.
Only the base cost is applied when Sleep is either targeted or untargeted with one creature present. The untargeted (mass attack) version cost increases with addition creatures. When two creatures are present the cost doubles. For additional creatures greater than two add 1/2 base cost each. Favor cost for this symbol is capped at 8 creatures regardless of the number actually affected.
