Title Sigil

The Sigils are a form of augmentative ability designed and heavily utilised by Lunlin. In order to use a Sigil a user must either be blessed with one of the specific Sigil enabling titles provided to Lunlin’s special chosen, or a user can be given access to the Sigils via proxy from someone who has a title. The resultant Sigil ability is based on the specific type of the Sigil. Sigils are written in Eldershade, a glyphic language used by the Proto-Shade and Shadeskin in Abyssus.

A Sigil is a connection to Lunlin, these channels as already mentioned can be extended to others if the holder has the ability to do so. Those with the Sigil are now connected to you which are then connected to Lunlin, making you a proxy. Because of this, for each person you share your Sigils with, the weaker everyone’s Sigil potency will become.

Active Sigils

A holder of Sigils can hold several Sigils at once. If the user is comprised of shade, they can hold Form Sigils, otherwise they cannot. As for Talent Sigils, the holder can hold one Utility Talent Sigil, one Offensive Talent Sigil and one Defensive Talent Sigil. The user can also hold 1 Title Sigil. Other than the title Sigils, Sigils can be exchanged if they decide to use a different title holders Sigils. If the user is a title holder that can hold their own Sigil and wishes to change them, they can do so only in Abyssus with the aid of Lunlin herself.

Form Sigils

Shadeskin are reliant upon Sigils to survive. Although many surface Shadeskin are unaware of it, each Shadeskin has a form Sigil that shapes their physical form, and without it they would breakdown into shade. This Sigil can be swapped out to gain different forms that contain different properties. These Sigils are only effective for beings whose physical forms are composed of shade.

Talent Sigils

Another type of Sigil that can be found are the Talent Sigils. These Sigils bestow a talent to the holder. These talents can be vast in variety and are useable by most races.
