Arcanic Power

FORCE

Domina, Umbra, and Luma combine in varying proportions to compose all that exists, in Mâter (our world) and The Beyond (the heavens).

Luma (White)

Luma is pure light energy, which springs forth from the heavens and grows all vital things. It passes through and repels Umbra, though cannot destroy it.

Domina (Grey)

Domina is the invisible force which binds Materia together at a fundamental level, in space and time. It can influence Luma's direction, but cannot control it.

Umbra (Black)

Umbra composes all things unknowable; it is found in the shadows between things, and places no mortal eyes can see.

ENERGY

Therma, Forma, and Sensora are borne of the Godly Forces, and are each responsible in their own way for nourishing and influencing vital creatures while shaping the material world.

Sensora (Blue)

Intellect, Dreams, Abstraction, Depression, The Eyes, Sleep, Drowkin

Forma (Yellow)

Endurance, Gravity, Pressure, Stress, The Feet, Exercise, Dwarfkind

Therma (Red)

Dexterity, Heat, Magnetism, Pain, The Mouth, Sunshine, Dragonkin

ESSENCE

Anima, Krea, and Chrona are found in all vital creatures, though some only possess one or two of the essences (plants possess some Anima and a trivial amount of Chrona, for instance). Together, the vital essences are necessary in order to interact with and inhabit the material world.

Chrona (Green)

Perception, Logic, Dogmatism, The Heart, Reading, Elfkin

Krea (Purple)

Cunning, Creativity, Conceptualization, Novelty, Insanity, The Hands, Freedom, Mankind

Anima (Orange)

Strength, Vitality, Motion, Rage, The Gut, Nourishment, Orckind

Attunement

Any given mortal is fundamentally attuned to one force/energy/essence. This attunement, while not necessarily indicative of their spellcasting ability or even preference of arcanic school, grants them unique traits to those attuned to another of the nine.
