Title: Brann The Everflame
Full Name: Brann Lohgtroen (Pronounced Brawn Low-true-in)
Age/DOB: 22 Prior To Slumber / March 15th
Height/Weight: 5'5" / 146 lbs
Sex/Gender: AMAB / Agender (Still uses he/him pronouns)

Appearance/Physical Description:

Faithful Priest

Personality:
Faith... What is Faith really?
The belief in others, in a higher power, humility, and trust.
You must be willing to accept that someone may be stronger than you.
You follow these bright individuals, LIKE MOTHS TO A FLAME
Brann was the youngest of the Seven, and was one of the last to join them. Before his recruitment, he looked up to the others has heroes that had his utmost faith. Once he joined, he followed their every step until he followed them into a trap. But even then, he called out to his allies to have faith. Faith that this would not be the end, faith that they would escape the fate they were given

Now, with his reawakening, Brann has become deeply resentful of the people who betrayed him. Deeming the council to be blasphemers who deserve to grovel at the Seven's heels and beg for forgiveness. He is deeply critical of others, and holds them to their ideals and demands perfection of adherence to them. Those that don't are hypocrites and traitors to themselves that don't deserve to have their problems solved. He views the weak as those that need to give in more to their faiths if they want to become stronger, and the strong as prideful assholes that have no faith in others. Brann himself has lost faith in everyone but the Seven and there is no longer any winning his favor.

Main Magic: The Flames Of Jophiel
Secondary Magics: Inferno and Fire
Virtue Key: The Blade Of Uriel

Flaming Sword

Looking much more like a Mage's staff than a sword, this blade served Brann faithfully as his standard through which he gathered other's belief in him and his abilities. The more the people loved him and cheered for him, the stronger he would become and the hotter his flames would burn. As long as the people had faith, Brann could borrow their Vitanima to charge the staff. By doing so, his magic could be empowered into their stronger forms with significantly less risk as the burden of any drawbacks would be shared by hundreds.

However, the void has demented this power and removed its demand for consent. The more you disdain him, hate him, blasphemy against him; the more you subconsciously feed him your own might. Similarly, his enemies' pride will ultimately be there downfall, as to think you're better than him is blasphemy in and of itself. The blade now draws power from fewer targets and no longer shares the burdens of magic, but instead increases them and forces both him and the target of his Vitanima vampirism to suffer these greater effects.

With his magic, I'm wanting it to technically all be fire magic, but fire magic that he has honed to be so formidable that it has gained equivalent strength and drawbacks to Contingent Magic in the form of Inferno and Celestial Magic in the form of The Flames of Jophiel. If that's not okay, I'll make changes of course.

[insert wooyeah dancing alien]

You've inspired me to rework the magic system because I really liked your view of the fire evolving with the levels of magic schools, so here you go:

At the Cardinal level of magical schools, the elements are restricted to purely their base forms. One who focuses their magic through Fire would be able to not just form, control, and manipulate fire in its literal form (see "Fire Bending" or "Pyrokinesis"), but so too, they would be able to cast spells with Fire as the focusing core of the incantation. This is to say, when casting, one uses the literal embodiment of Fire as a foundation for this spell. For example, if a Fire focuser were to cast a healing spell, it would be brought from the heat of the flame with themes of cauterization and sterilization. One could use a focus of Fire to mend and bind materials, or, on the contrary, they could use their fiery focus to boil and break materials down to their finer forms. For one who focuses on Fire as their center, spells are read as passionate and warm in nature. Naturally, all magic comes at a cost, though the drawback of these simpler castings is minimal. Headaches, fatigue, and hunger are the worst of the extent paid for Cardinal spellwork.

At the Contingent level of magic schools, the elements are broken own to their finer forms. One who focuses their magic through Fire opens way to expanding their power to encompassing the finer notes of the flame: Heat, Glow, and Spark are among these notes in the realm of Fire. These refined points of focus allow for finer, more refined spells when used as the focusing core. Heat is used for higher, more severe healing spells, while Spark is used not only to produce specialized flames, but can also be used in spells for energizing, inspiring, or even soothing. For one who focuses on the finer note of Fire as their center, spells are read as invigorated and hot in nature. Unsurprisingly, the cost of these higher level spells come quite greater. Headaches rise to migraines, while fatigue becomes utter exhaustion, and hunger is replaced with painful nausea and other internal pains.

At the Celestial level of magic schools, the elements are expanded further into their abstract forms. One who focuses their magic through Fire rises high in the overlaying planes of mortal and soul, evolving their power to reach the abstract characterization of the pyre: Passion, Ferocity, and Rebirth are among these characterizations. These abstractions of focus allow for the highest of spells when used as the focusing core. Most notably, one who focuses a healing spell through the abstract of Rebirth is believed to be capable of bringing a soul back to life, though to attempt this is said to risk the greatest of drawbacks. As is to be expected, the drawback of paramount spells like these is of the extreme. Migraines so severe they bring the onset of temporary blindness or deafness, bleeding of the nose, ears, and eyes, and exhaustion leading into long-lasting unconsciousness, and even coma and organ failure are possibilities when using these high-level spells.

I have to take care of something irl right fast, but when I'm done with that, I'll work at expanding the other three cardinal elements into their finer notes and abstracts. Thank you for the inspiration!!

[Baphomini]

Alright, people, I'll put all this new information in a zeroth post for easier access, but this is what I've got. I tried to be as unspecific as I could to allow for people to interpret the elements in their own way so they can shape their magic by their character rather than strict rules or ideals. I also did my best to avoid specifying overlays between the elements, in favor of letting such be seen through perspective. For example: Air and water both have a characteristic of flow shared between them, but one could argue that fire, too, has that characteristic, and even earth, in the form of sand especially is able to freely flow. Finally, I tried to have contrast between the notes and abstracts of traditionally opposing elements (water ↔ fire, and earth ↔ air) while also including contrast in these between the other core elements as well (see stability vs flexibility). I was also applying a third, more complicated level of connection between the notes and abstracts, see Dense to Strength, or Loose to Freedom. The main idea behind all of this is to open up the magic system to creativity and allow users to run wild with the implications these elements can hold. From the Cardinal level of the basic core element, to the Contingent level of using those finer notes of the element, all the way up to the Celestial level of encompassing the abstract character of each element. As the element is broken down to its very meaning, it becomes more powerful and allows for more creative applications and a wider range of use.

Element: Fire; referred to often as "Soul"

• Notes: Heat, Glow, Spark
• Abstracts: Passion, Ferocity, Rebirth

Element: Earth; referred to often as "Shape"

• Notes: Dense, Root, Bloom
• Abstracts: Strength, Stability, Compression

Element: Water; referred to often as "Fluid"

• Notes: Crisp, Dark, Pitch
• Abstracts: Adaptivity, Flexibility, Birth

Element: Air; referred to often as "Breath"

• Notes: Loose, Drift, Range
• Abstracts: Freedom, Tranquility, Growth

A zeroth post has been created logging all the new information into a more organized and concise format. Please view at your leisure and make any adjustments to your characters that may be necessary (as I will be doing the same dfcvgbh)

@Baphomini

Question on magic: So are the magics in the opening post tiers? Like at level one [the magics tab] carnal is level one and what is capable at this basic level, then contingent(level 2), and finally celestial?
So does this mean I need to select one at each level?

I choose the abstract mind. As a type of telepath reading peoples thoughts as to their movements. Is this the correct interpretation?

@amorphical

As you'll see in the Zeroth post, the elements have been reworked to focus on the four elements of Soul, Shape, Fluid, and Breath-- or Fire, Earth, Water, and Air for better understanding --These elements then expand into their key notes, such as Shape being composed of Dense, the very essence of the earth itself, Root, the fact that all life is tied to the earth in one way or another, and Bloom, the idea that the earth is a giver of life, a provider that allows things to take form. From there, the core element of Shape is further observed to encompass a more abstract essence. Here we look at Shape's abstracts of Strength, Stability, and Compression. Through Strength, we gain the will to not just survive but thrive. Stability gives one the ability to keep their place in life. Compression acts as a control in conjunction with the Growth offered by Fluid, keeping things simple and straightforward rather than spiraling out of comprehension.

You'll see, if you look back at my CS for Aleksei, I've altered the form just a bit. Rather than simply determining a primary and secondary magic from the original list, I chose a core focus element, and allowed for a minoring focus for the purpose of the applications I was searching for.

Alek's Core Focus

Core Focus: Soul; minoring in Shape
Applications:

Aleksei wields the elemental forces of Soul and Shape with cunning mastery, cloaking his cruelty in false generosity. With a smile, he raises walls of earth to shelter the downtrodden, only to leave them trapped and abandoned. He conjures flames to warm the cold, letting them grow until they consume all in their path. Aleksei's gifts appear kind, but breed suffering.

His power over fire and earth allows sinister creativity. With penetrating heat, Aleksei mimics the forging of diamonds, focusing scorching flames through dense minerals. Yet at any moment, he can turn this searing force upon his enemies, blinding them with blistering light. The very ground obeys Aleksei's whims, opening sinkholes and pits beneath the feet of those who displease him. Or he can compress soil and stone into nigh-impenetrable barriers, encaging any who dare defy him.

Aleksei makes the earth's bounty an instrument of manipulation, commanding vines to constrict and roots to spread at this command. His fiery power mutates the natural world, breeding new species of flora to serve his wishes. With but a thought, Aleksei can generate hybrid plants or inflict potent effects upon the environment.

In Aleksei's hands, the fundamental elements of Soul and Shape become tools of covert cruelty, masked by the guise of generosity. His imagination in combining them seems endless, as does the suffering he casually inflicts upon those foolish enough to trust his false benevolence. For behind Aleksei's kindly facade lurks only a desire for narcissistic gain, no matter the cost.

As you can see, Alek's primary focus is Soul, or Fire, but he also works with Shape, or Earth, and with this, he has developed his own means of utilizing these elements through not just their core, but the notes and abstracts as well. With the Knights being in the position they were, they will have mastered their core elements to the Celestial level. The idea with this altered system is not to pick and choose elements from different levels, but rather, to interpret the core element in a way that works for you! Breath, with its abstract of Freedom could be interpreted in a way that allows for one to "free their mind" and utilize the note of "Drift" in order to enter the minds of others on a metaphysical plane, allowing them to access the thoughts of those around them.

In conjecture, you could use the Pitch of Fluid along with Adaptivity to do the same. This is the idea behind this setup! The notion that the same non-elementally driven spell could be achieved just as likely through one core as another. Though, with your character's Key's weakness to water, and reliance on the wind, I would think Breath is a more fitting means of approaching the application than that Fluid, haha

[amorphical]

@Baphomini
So i could say mind and air creating the prcognition effect with the air flow around a person to give the hint of the characters/NPC's next move? With mind i can shape and move the air as I wish?
Main Magic: abstract /mind < foresight/veil
Foresight: Utilizing the Abstract mind Terisa can strategize several moves ahead[precognition]. This allows her to shoot at a location her opponent will be with deadly accuracy.
Veil: Utilizing abstract mind makes Terisa's intentions and movements harder to anticipate.
Secondary magic: Air, dense/flow/void
With air magic I can condense it to step on or make a area resistant to movement [think running underwater]. Flow allows me to fly or hinder something flying by pressing down ward [eventually redirection]. With void I remove the air from a space making it impossible to breathe or the area silent as sound unable to travel.

[Baphomini]

@amorphical Again, if you look at the Zeroth post, you'll see that the elements have been completely reworked from that of the original post. Now being limited to fire, earth, water, and air. These four are broken down into their notes and expanded into their abstracts. Mind/abstract no longer exists as an element, and flow is not a note of any one element as all elements are capable of flow. Please look at the Zeroth post or my update on the elements to see the new elements and the new system we are working with (friendly)

[amorphical]

Ah... that is helpful thanks. ^^
Ill make corrections now and resubmit. Does the weapon/ virtue key work?

[Baphomini]

Yes! I'd say the Key is perfect ^u^ and like I said, you can still utilize the idea of reading minds, just instead of being labeled directly as mind, it is achieved through creatively utilizing the more abstract reaches of an element. A similar idea to this would be using a core focus of Shape/Earth to control bones based on Shape's note of Root and abstract of Stability as well as the concept that bones are made of minerals, minerals found in the Earth, from which the life that holds these bones originates. It all comes together in a wonderful, chaotic cycle!

[amorphical]

@Baphomini
Im sticking with air and updated my character post. Thanks for the clarification and patience. XD
When will we get the thumbs up for posting the CS in the section?

Title: Terisa of the piercing strata
Full Name: Terisa Sokolov
Age/DOB (before the slumber): 26
Height/Weight: 5'6 /128
Sex/Gender: Female

cursed Appearance/Physical Description:

Personality: Originally Terisa was a very patient soul. Taking her time like an archer taking aim, awaiting for the single perfect moment in time. Then with all the speed and certainty moving in a strait line to the target with astounding results. Whenever a choice is offered one can be assured that Terisa would weigh all the angles, choose the best item to get the task done in a single shot.

The corruption has made Terisa impatient, very impatient after learning her time was wasted and she never got married or experienced life fully. While in the void it was not the waiting or continual nothingness, it was the lack of substance, it was the constant reminder of all of life's bounty she was being denied. The once ginger now has become glutton for all that life has to offer in all its forms!

Main Magic: Breath of creation
Secondary magic: Air, flow, void

Virtue Key: Raudra, Compound bow
Utilizing Vitanima the bow creates softly glowing blue arrows. These mystic arrows are capable of piercing any target bypassing armor or hardness as spiritual damage. The Compound bows mystic ammunition is harmless to inanimate objects passing through them. The bows one weakness is water, the bolts seem to disburse in the life giving element.

@amorphical

So, you still seem to be missing the idea here? (friendly) Breath and Air are one in the same, Air is just another name for ethe core element of Breath. The notes of Breath are Loose, Drift, and Range, while the abstracts of Breath are Freedom, Tranquility, Growth, as can be seen in the Zeroth post

This means that Terisa would have a core focus of Breath, and her applications of this would allow her to utilize its note of Drift in conjunction with its abstract of Freedom to both reach into the minds of others and glimpse into the future through the astral plane as her soul drifts and exists in freedom from the mortal plane

I suggest altering the CS to have Focus Core and Applications the way I did for Aleksei as it allows for more freedom and explanation in how an element is used by the character!

Title: Xian Haoran, The Black Jade
Full Name:
-Surname: Xian (仙, Immortal or celestial, can denote “fairy”)
-Given Name: Tao (濤, the sound of the sea)
-Courtesy Name: Haoran (浩然, “vastness, greatness”)

Age/DOB (before the slumber): 25 / November 4th
Height/Weight: 5’10 / 157 lbs
Sex/Gender: male / cis man
Appearance/Physical Description: Xian Haoran is a traveling cultivator, hailing from a cultivation sect in the northern China region. He wears traditional, noble Hanfu instead of cumbersome metal armor, opting for mostly blue and black shades of fabrics, and letting all of his beautiful layers of silk billow in the wind. He has a fairly sharp V-shaped face with undefined, pouty lips and an even, sloped button nose. His eyes are shaped like willow leaves, and the irises glitter a dark blue like the ocean. The eyes themselves look tired, shadowed by his long, downcast lashes and a severe-looking set of brows. Haoran tends to wear his long, dark hair half-up, opting for tying a loose bun with a dark blue ribbon matching his deep-water eyes. Two moles speckle his otherwise jade-pale face, one under his right eye and one on the left side of his chin, under his lip. He always stands with dignity and great posture, a long neck framing his pristine and aloof face.

Personality: long ago, before Xian Haoran’s slumber, he was a studious and diligent soul with a steel-trap memory that harbored an extraordinary knowledge ironed into him from his sect. He was born in the Xian Sect of northern China, not a day in his life truly spent in the secular world and not a minute of training time wasted. Advanced magic was taught to Haoran from a young age, and the elegant arts of the sword engrained into his body. All of this culminated into a strong, gentle, and infinitely patient young man— diligent in his teachings, never skipping or snuffing a single lesson, never raising his voice, able to wait and meditate and simply learn and teach to perfection. The Black Jade never repeated himself, always able to wait, to observe, and to flow with what others presented him.
Ever since he woke up, he’s been hollowed out. While still diligent, still possessing precious knowledge, he… struggles to feel anything but rage and pain. He can’t sit in peace and think of the world without thinking about why everything should die for the suffering he faced. He can’t train and hone his skills unless he pictures blood staining his blade and bones cracking under his fists. His gratefulness, his gentleness, it’s all been replaced with ever-flowing turmoil deep in his chest, and resentment in all forms bubble and boil. There’s no such thing as perfect moments anymore. There’s no reason to sit and ponder and train, unless it is to get revenge on a world that shred the fabric of his being into nothing but rags.
He is… hollow. And it hurts him. And he can’t wait to stop it.

Focus Core: water-based magic, my brain hurts too much to think of details rn pls have mercy on my soul

Virtue Key: a Chinese “jian,” in other words a two-edged sword, forged by Aleksei long ago based off of Haoran’s description of “good swords.” This sword was forged in some otherworldly manner— its blade extremely sharp and opalescent, as if a giant fiery opal was polished and honed into a lethal edge. it has an off-putting translucency to it, the hilt contrasting the glittering and ethereal blade with a simple but flowing hilt and a pommel with its name engraved in mandarin characters— “微光,” meaning “twilight.” It has the ability to use its stored magical energy to move on its own accord, and channel energy from Haoran to be controlled with just his mind. In the last days before his entombment, Haoran tied a dark blue sword tassel to the pommel, for “good luck.” The irony.

[Baphomini]

@CorviDoggo I will have mercy on your soul for not having your applications of Haoran's magic yet, for now... e_e

Otherwise he looks great! I love him so much shdbsjwnsjs

[amorphical]

@Baphomini =)
The "breath of creation" was just a cool sounding I took the que from @kronshi main magic: The Flames Of Jophiel
Am I bound by the three notes: Loose, Drift, Range and abstracts: Freedom, Tranquility, Growth? may I be allowed to incorporate opposites like void? would void be range, like i create negative spaces of air? Sorry I'm trying to understand the concept and just seeking clarification. *friendly attitude in all posting. ^^

[Baphomini]

Kronshi's was written before the change, I've already worked with him in the Discord to rework his power to fit the new system. "The Flames of Jophiel" is now the name of a spell, while his focus core is soul/fire

Yes, you are "bound" by the three notes and abstracts in name, but you are free to interpret the applications of these aspects however you see fit, such as viewing Range as encompassing void by it being the absence of Breath/Air

The idea with this system is not to limit, but rather to provide a simple foundation from which you can build the powerset of your knight and make it unique to them and their personality. It's all about how you utilize the element and its notes and aspects. A good example I used in the Discord was using a mending spell to mend a clay pot, while also using that same spell to entomb someone in the rubble of a fallen building. The possibilities are endless because it all depends on your creativity!

Brann himself has lost faith in everyone but the Seven and there is no longer any winning his favor.

---

Core Focus: Soul
Applications: Brann has had faith in his simplistic fire magic his entire life. Unable to afford an education, he never learned the ways of Heat, Glow, or Spark and thus didn't have the foundations to understand the Celestial Texts on Passion, Ferocity, and Rebirth. Instead, he refined Soul into heightened forms until its power, and the drawbacks that come with it, rivaled Celestial Magic.

Brann does not minor in Shape, Fluid, or Breath. More accurately, he is unable to use earth, water, or air magic but instead utilizes the concepts within the three other traditions to alter how he interprets Soul and his stronger spells rely on multiple of these changes to function. Through Shape, he can give form and structure to his flames allowing him to ignore the typical physics that fire answers to. Through Blood, he can give his flames a mind of their own causing them to move independently like a beating heart. Through Breath, he can give substance to his flames and detach them from himself allowing them to sustain themselves as opposed to continuing to drain his Vitanima. With a Pure Soul, he can ignore even the Carnal aspect, Fire, and instead interact with a being's soul directly to damage or manipulate it.

The following are staples within his arsenal, but barely describes what he is capable of. His Contingent-equivalent spells ignore the notes, and his Celestial-equivalent spells ignore the abstracts. It is pure soul, strengthened by pure faith.

Cardinal Level:
Soul Given Shape: Brann summons hardened fire that takes on a crystalline appearance, but unlike crystal does not have shatter lines and instead has the rigidness of metal. This fire can be melded into weapons or shields that still burn with the full intensity of fire. Thus, only those who have a core of soul can wield them without having to withstand the heat.

Soul Given Blood: Flames extend along the floor around Brann, creeping over an substance it comes into contact with. Brann can also use this spell to throw a flame-blob that will cause a similar, put smaller-area, effect at a distance.

Soul Given Breath: A breathing flame self sustains itself, and Brann uses this to light never-ending fires. They can still be put out as normal, but otherwise they no longer need a fuel source to keep burning.

SoulBurn: Soul refined by soul, Brann's sends a firebolt out towards an enemy. Instead of igniting their flesh or clothes, it burns their soul. Only another mage with capable healing can relieve the pain, and those who die from its effects can only be revived if their soul is extinguished, as the burning keeps them dead. Brann developed this technique to combat the endless waves of dark entities that seemed to only return to the void and come back healed up or even stronger than before. This spell was meant to be a final end to the deathless dark.

Contingent Level:
The Tears of Cassiel: Soul given Shape to form piercing needles of fire, and Blood to act independently, Brann assaults his enemies with seeking projectiles that he must still sustain with his Vitanima but doesn't need to direct or command. The flames pierce through targets and continue on to further enemies, leaving those with lacking magical defenses no rest as they must keep moving to avoid them.

The Storm Of Barachiel: Soul given Blood and Breath, Brann superheats his fire, separating the breath between air and creating a vacuum directly around the flame, he then extends this space outwards like veins extending from a heart until it makes contact with something. The heat and energy looking for somewhere to go, quickly races across this line and becomes plasma. Not quite lightning, but similar, the plasma ball slams into his enemies and explodes.

The Armies Of Michael: A Soul, given a Shape and the ability to Breath, is almost equivalent to a living creature. No Fluidity to think, Flame Elementals are summoned to fight alongside Brann but he must command them in order for them to act.

The Judgement Of Azrael: Soul itself. No flames, no heat, no glow, no spark. Brann grips another beings soul and rends it from their body. This doesn't kill, but will leave the target unconscious until their soul can recover. Brann must make physical, skin-to-skin, contact with his target to use this ability. Directly connecting his soul to theirs.

Celestial Level:
The Flames Of Jophiel: The prime Soul spell, given Shape, Blood, Breath, and refined with Brann's own soul, this spell represents the aspects of a true knight. Protection and Justice:

• The Gates of Eden: Brann conjures a dome that moves on its own with a desire to protect as many of his allies as possible. Enemies will need to expend substantial Vitanima simply to enter the Gates, but will immediately ignite and continue to burn from the flames intended to protect even God.
• The Flaming Sword: Brann conjures a two sided blade at the end of his staff, made of the strongest flames that Brann can produce. The ultimate weapon of Justice, the blade thinks for itself and will extend to whatever range is necessary to strike his enemies.

The Fall Of Samael: A new spell created during the 50-year entrapment, this spell infuses Soul not with Shape, Blood, or Breath but instead with the dark void itself. Black Flames coat Brann's body, slowly consuming his flesh and infusing all of his spells while active with Hellfire. These flames do not go out, inflict SoulBurn, and cause those on fire to feel any pain that Brann experiences. As the target's soul is damaged, so is there Vitanima, restricting their ability to cast spells. In the case of SoulBurn itself, those who perish from a Hellfire SoulBurn have their soul consumed by the void, lost forever to empower Daemonium. Those that are under the effects of both his virtue key and hellfire experience both the drawbacks that Brann does and feel the pain doubled due to experiencing Brann's pain. With a loss of Vitanima, and suffering enough drawbacks to not want to use spells anyways, this spell is intended to be used as a final stand. Either the target is dying if they cannot withstand the suffering, or Brann will die as his own spell consumes him.

Virtue Key: The Blade Of Uriel

Flaming Sword

Looking much more like a Mage's staff than a sword, this blade served Brann faithfully as his standard through which he gathered other's belief in him and his abilities. The more the people loved him and cheered for him, the stronger he would become and the hotter his flames would burn. As long as the people had faith, Brann could borrow their Vitanima to charge the staff. By doing so, his magic could be empowered into their stronger forms with significantly less risk as the burden of any drawbacks would be shared by hundreds.

However, the void has demented this power and removed its demand for consent. The more you disdain him, hate him, blasphemy against him; the more you subconsciously feed him your own might. Similarly, his enemies' pride will ultimately be there downfall, as to think you're better than him is blasphemy in and of itself. The blade now draws power from fewer targets and no longer shares the burdens of magic, but instead increases them and forces both him and the target of his Vitanima vampirism to suffer these greater effects.

Edited. Finished Wips, added a new spell, reworded a few things to account for Blood over Fluid naming, and added some more text to Applications before his spell list.
