In the merciless expanse of Skjoldier, Freya's existence, a tapestry woven of survival and profound, abyssal love, stood defiant against the relentless, icy clutches of her world. Amidst the savage embrace of this relentless landscape, where the faintest whisper of warmth was a coveted treasure, she found an inferno of solace in the arms of Eirik, her beloved.

 

Eirik, a paragon of valor cloaked in the humility of kindness, stood as a beacon in their unyielding winter - a being of hope and a bastion of strength for their beleaguered tribe. His presence was akin to a radiant pyre in the perpetual night of their frostbitten world. The bond between Freya and Eirik, tempered and honed in the crucible of shared tribulations, was deep and unyielding, rooting itself beneath the permafrost of their existence.

 

Yet, the sanctuary in Eirik's embrace was ephemeral, a fleeting dream in the long, somber night of Skjoldier. The tendrils of war, driven by the dark whispers of desperation and the green-eyed monster of envy, reached their haven. A rival tribe, shadows and specters driven by hunger for land and blood, descended like a plague. In this maelstrom of steel and fury, Eirik, the unwavering shield of his people, met a fate most grim. Despite his formidable might, the relentless tide of adversaries, born of surprise and overwhelming numbers, snuffed out his life - a blaze extinguished by the cruel, indifferent storm.

 

This calamity fractured the very essence of Freya’s being. Eirik's demise was a shard of ice driven deep into her soul, a chill so profound it dwarfed the eternal frost of Skjoldier. She became a specter of despair, wandering the snow-laden wastes, her spirit as hollow and void as the desolation that surrounded her. In the throes of her anguish, she questioned the capricious whims of fate that had torn her heart asunder, her psyche a tumultuous abyss of sorrow and unbridled fury.

 

 

In this depth of despair, as Freya lay on the snow, her life force ebbing away, a presence manifested above her. Who, or what exactly it was, she did not know, but it loomed like a malevolent specter. Sensing a certain kinship born of a mutual grief and sorrow that they both shared, as well as her imminent demise from the clutches of hypothermia, in a twisted act of preservation, It graced her with Its cold tears, weeping for her salvation - the tears blackened and corruptive just like It - promising her revenge upon the Descendants. This unholy communion marked the beginning of her corruption, as the malefic essence seeped into her very veins.

 

This infusion of its corrupted essence intertwined with Freya’s boundless grief and unbridled wrath. Her heart, aching for the lost whispers of her beloved Eirik, became a vessel for this sinister force. The confluence of the corruption and her raw, untamed emotions catalyzed a profound transformation. Her sorrow, once a silent storm raging within, now surged forth as an icy, tangible fury, reshaping her destiny.

 

Freya, transfigured by her anguish and vengeance, arose anew - a harbinger of frost, the first of the Fjarriagua. Consumed by unspeakable grief, sadness, and anger, she grew to despise the Descendant-kind. Now a tormented creature roaming the barren wastelands, she sought to corrupt those afflicted by a fate akin to hers, ensnaring them in an endless cycle of torment. Her sole purpose became to sow misery among all. To devour the Descendants, who she now all saw as cruel.

 

Transformation

 

DAY 1 - 3: The Fjarriagua’s teeth begin to fall out, only to be replaced by a row of horribly jagged and sharp teeth. Some of it misplaced and crooked.

 

DAY 4 - 5: The Fjarriagua’s hair begins to turn white, as if bleaching, sometimes even presenting faint hues of blue, grey.

 

DAY 6: The Fjarriagua’s body freezes over, symbolizing the completion of the physical changes to her body as she grows through T1.

 

DAY 7: The Mark has fully taken a grip of her soul, rendering the MA irreversible. From there on out, the Fjarriagua begins to hunger for a Descendant's warmth. One, that may be only quelled through the devouring of one.

 

Mother-Daughter Bond

 

The Bond between a Vaettr, commonly known as the Witch Mother, and her daughter - a Fjarriagua - is one of mutual familial love; one feels when the other has died or ascended into Motherhood, in which case the bond is diluted for the new Vaettr to establish her own with other to-be daughters.

 

The Vaettr will also be able to see through the disguise of their daughters but not the other way around; they will only feel that she is nearby.

 

Red Lines:

-The Mark can only be transferred with OOC consent.
-The Vaettr may only create [1] Fjarriagua per OOC week. To a maximum of [3] under her TA. Once the Fjarriagua is fully taught, she may be taken off the TA
-Becoming Fjarriagua consumes [3] magic slots.
-A Vaettr may transfer a Fjarriagua under another TA-holding Fjarriagua.
-A valid CA has to be submitted after the RP is complete.
-Only female personas may be ascended as Fjarriagua.
-The persona in question must be above the age of 18 IRP.
-The moment she is turned to a Fjarriagua, FTB & Romance are immediately barred. Any attempts of such will cause the ice within her soul to rapidly melt, hard-PKing the Fjarriagua by heat stroke
-After the first week of transformation, this CA becomes irreversible. During its reversible state, the curse hasn’t fully gripped their soul, allowing them to push that curse off their soul should they will it. Requiring an ST to be contacted to deny their CA.
-The frostbitten region on their nape will always remain, regardless of whether they disguise or not, but they may hide them through other means (i.e clothing, scarves, etc.)
-The Fjarriagua & Vaettr are capable of seeing through the disguises of her direct coven members with OOC consent. This does not allow Fjarriagua & Vaettr of different covens from sensing one another.

-Fjarriagua’s bodies are as cold as a corpse, a majority of their soul frozen, incapable of retaining any form of warmth - requiring them to rely on their disguises in order to hide their temperature and other traits.
-Fjarriagua no longer age, now being considered immortal.
-Their body looks extremely frostbitten and even frozen, and their blood becomes slushy & slow in consistency, making it harder for them to bleed out. In their undisguised form, their skin cracks when harshly struck.
-Due to their body being frozen, some of their nerves too are frozen. This means that their sense of pain is muffled. While they, for example, may not feel much or not even feel at all when lightly cut, brutal strikes such as the loss of a limb or shattering bones and so on will still greatly hurt them, although to a dampened level. This also numbs their sense of touch.
-Their body bleeds out much slower than the typical Descendant, due to their slow-coursing blood, frozen to a slush - taking them about 1/4th of the pace to fully bleed out. This also means that their heartbeat is much slower, and their pulse weaker.
-They do not need to breathe, although they may optionally choose to do so to present themselves as normal.
- They are incompatible with any deific magics, shamanism, druidism, and the likes, and also incompatible  with Naztherak.
- They are compatible with Seer & Blood Magic
-While incompatible with Naztherak, they may still soul pact to red princes.
-As becoming Fjarriagua is irreversible past the first week, they may not be a Corcitura nor any other FA akin to Heraldry. Ascending into Fjarriagua would mean cleansing their vampirism, no matter how long they’ve had the FA.

Mental Illnesses Preface:
 

Fjarriagua are plagued by mental illness & personality disorders, which include, but are not limited to: Schizophrenia, General Anxiety, Psychosis, Antisocial Personality Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Social Anxiety, Panic Disorders, and Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

These mental illnesses can manifest in irritability, anger issues, a short temper, a grandiose sense of self, believing themselves to be invincible, mood swings, isolation, and racing thoughts. Note that these manifestations listed are only a few amongst the many others that the Fjarriagua may pick for herself, and do not apply to every single Fjarriagua.

Due to their innate resentment for Descendants and their detached feelings towards them, Fjarriagua struggle to see them as people, but rather seeing them as tools, assets, and so forth. This means that while capable Fjarriagua may feign kindness and decency towards others, they will not weep for them should they die.

Their mental ailments are quelled to a degree by being amongst their kin, as they may form connections and empathize with their own so long as it is strictly platonic and/or family relationships. This is to say that they see their own coven as their own siblings and parents, and may form friendly relationships with them.

A Fjarriagua is heavily dependent on her kin (all those who share the Mark) and especially her Mother for mental reprieve. The longer she goes without interacting with her own, the worse her mental health becomes. This makes it extremely hard - bordering the impossible - to kill one of her own, as it would be comparable to killing one’s own parents. Yet every situation is circumstantial, allowing them to perform these acts should there be proper reasoning for such. Otherwise it will be ruled as an instance of Powergaming.

-A Fjarriagua’s mental state greatly plummets, being far more prone to a poor mental state and other mental illnesses. The only way of quelling that is to be around their own kin, which brings a sense of comfort.
-They may not feel any romantic feelings for one another, and instead can strictly have familial / friendly relationships with one another.
-Fjarriagua may temporarily alleviate their mental ailments by spending time together, or spending time around an altar.
-It is heavily recommended that Fjarriagua players do their own research on mental illness and not play into stereotypes, to provide an enjoyable quality of RP to all parties included.

-The compulsion to devour flesh does not possess any mechanics nor restrictions, and completely up for the Fjarriagua to roleplay the way she sees it fit. This includes the emotions that they take on from the Descendant they cannibalize. They may choose it to last a few hours, or days, or months, depending on what they believe is best for the narrative. The victim may be /msged OOCly for information on their persona's archetype.

Swoon - [Combat/Non-Combat] [2] - [T1]

Teetering between life and death, the Fjarriagua may take advantage of her altered, cold body by temporarily stopping all forms of heart movement, as well as any form of breathing over the course of [2] emotes, in a desperate attempt to get her foes off her trail. This will cause her to fall temporarily unconscious for up to [10] emotes. This will make her heartbeat undetectable, their skin as cold as a corpse, practically meeting all criteria to be perceived dead.

Upon her awakening, she will be temporarily hindered by a mild headache, and somewhat dazed - disallowing her from effectively fighting and being able to cast any forms of magic for the next [3] emotes.  

 

 

 

 

 

Frost Mending - [Combat/Non-Combat] [2] - [T2]

More often than not, the Fjarriagua will find themselves in situations requiring medical assistance. By conjuring specs of ice and snowflakes over the course of [2] emotes, they may stack them on a wound in order to temporarily cut off blood loss, until they get adequate help to heal themselves. This requires great concentration, finding themselves unable to move nor strike during its channeling.

During the channeling of it, their movement is halved.

 

 

 

Disguise - [T1]

 

[Combat | Non-Combat]

  

Through disguising, the Fjarriagua not only gain the ability to shape themselves into the forms of a variety of Descendants, but to grant illusory warmth upon their body, allowing them to blend in with the mundane, and use their wits to their advantage.

 

Crafting a disguise is no small feat, as they have to gather specific items to create their perfect guise, bits and pieces from the traits they aim to surface on their body, all in one accessory that they wear on themselves. Then, they may infuse that accessory with their very essence, activating it.
 

Disguise crafting can range from a simple creation, although with many tells, to a more complex creation, reducing the amount of tells the more effort is put into the creation of it.

These disguises may possess unnatural quirks to them, such as a smile that stretches on for miles, or shifting pupils for all manners of expression. When they exit their disguise, they may also choose to shatter it in a dramatic way, such as breaking it into many icy flakes, or even tearing that skin apart themselves to reveal their form. Although for nothing more than dramatic flare and aesthetic purpose.

Although, should a Sigismund’s Candle be lit near a disguised Fjarriagua, their skin and flesh affected by such will begin to look increasingly frozen, as if nullifying the disguise’s effects, revealing their true nature hidden beneath.

 

 

 

FROST WEAVING  - [T1]

 

[Combat | Non-Combat]

 

As Worshippers of the Ice, Servants of the North, and as the Children of the Deep Cold, all Fjarriagua will themselves longing for Winter’s embrace, rejoicing and celebrating for it to begin and dreading its end. Thus, as is their birthright and their very nature, they all find themselves as one with ice, being capable of weaving the ice around them as if it were an  extension of their body, allowing them to achieve feats that were once impossible.

They may freely weave ice outside of combat, so long as nothing is used to bypass the player’s mechanical limitations.

Sensing - [Passive]

 

Being one with the ice, Fjarriagua may sense all who tread upon snow or ice around themselves, within a few meters around themselves, although unable to discern friend from foe within that sensing, incapable of knowing who exactly it is that is treading upon that ice.

The range of Sensing depends on the Fjarriagua’s tier.

T1: [2] meters around oneself, incapable of discerning who or what is moving upon the ice.

T2: The range is increased to [4] meters around oneself.

T3: Range is increased to [6] meters around oneself, now capable of discerning between light and heavy footsteps.

T4: Range hits its limit, now increased to [8] meters around oneself.

Red Lines

 

Ice Spikes - [Combat] [3-4]  - [T1]

In the span of [4] emotes (1 Connection + 1 Tell + 2 Control), they may conjure forth from one spike to even a blanket of spikes within a maximum surface area of a single block.

Should they use it offensively, the spikes will cause the ground to visibly quake for [1] emote before quickly rising up by [1] meter per emote, to a maximum of 2 meters.

Should it be used defensively, the emote count is instead lowered to [3] (1 Connection + 2 Control), reaching the same maximum height of 2 blocks, the spikes being smoothly-moving in a slower manner, rather than shot up.

This ability may be used on any surface, though may only grow in a single direction. This is to say, they may not split and move into different directions.

The Ice Spikes, due to their sheer size, are more akin to stone in durability, rather than ferrum, requiring [2] major actions to destroy through harsh strikes. In the case of Dragonsflame or voidally conjured Blue Fire, then the spikes will merely melt off in [1] strike.

 

Red Lines

 

 

Ice Projectile - [Combat] [3-5]  - [T1]

 

In the first [2] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Control) the Fjarriagua begins to conjure a mass of ice, capable of choosing whether to make it sharp or blunt. Should the creature continue channeling their magic, they may add up to [2] extra emotes of charging - totalling up to [4] emotes - adding either up to 3 full projectiles hovering beside it, or continuing to stack the first projectile into a bigger one with the combined size of each projectile. The Fjarriagua may then spend the final [1] emote shooting that projectile.

 

Any other Fjarriagua aiming to aid with the one casting this spell, may add a projectile to the casting Fjarriagua’s, or stack their own projectile’s size onto one pre-existing projectile. This means that if a Fjarriagua is conjuring a 3-inch projectile, another Fjarriagua may add their 4-inch projectile onto the main witch’s 3-inch projectile, turning it into 7 inches.

 

Red Lines

 

 

Frigid Arsenal - [Combat] [2]  - [T1]

In the span of [2] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Conjure) the Fjarriagua conjures a packed, and condensed mass of ice, donning the properties of that of ferrum. This mass of ice can take on the form of any weaponry or shield even. Should the Fjarriagua wish it, this weapon may grow out of their own body, such as claws growing out of their knuckles, or their hand encapsulated in a hammerhead.

Should the Fjarriagua wish it, she may charge the spell for [1] additional emote, allowing her to strengthen the weapon to the durability of steel, instead of ferrum.

As they are weapons of ice, any form of flames will melt them akin to mundane ice.  

Red Lines

 

 

Ice Layer - [Combat] [3]  - [T2] 

In the span of [3] emotes (1 Connect + 2 Expand), the Fjarriagua may expand a thin layer of ice in an area of her choosing up to [6] meters in every direction, latching onto the ground and nearby walls, causing the surfaces to be slippery, resulting in uneasy footing to non-Fjarriagua, disallowing them from moving more than [4] meters without the threat of falling flat on the ground. Finding it hard to hold their ground, making them more vulnerable to actions that push them around.

Should there already be ice on the ground she is aiming to create a slippery ice field on, the Fjarriagua expands that slippery ice by [3] meters per emote by every direction, to a maximum of [6] meters.

Red Lines

 

 

Ensnare - [Combat] [3]  - [T2]

In the span of [3] emotes (1 Connect + 2 Control), the Fjarriagua may target either their victim’s hands or feet.

In the case of hands, layers upon layers of ice begin to stack around their hands and optionally weapon, should they be holding one, increasing its weight drastically, therefore sabotaging their use of it.
In the case of feet, they may conjure ice around them, thickening to an extremely heavy degree, where they would be unable to lift their legs off the ground.
The victim may spend [2] major actions to break the ice off.

Red Lines

 

 

 

 

Frostblink - [Combat] [3]  - [T3]

In the span of [3] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Charge + 1 Cast) the Fjarriagua may fasten herself to the ground below, as a small layer of ice forms beneath her feet, dashing up to [18] meters in a single direction. Leaving behind a path of slippery ice. Moving during the casting of such will cancel the spell.
Those who tread upon that slippery ground will find themselves with unsteady footing, incapable of running without falling down, nor properly able to balance themselves too well.

Red Lines

 

Arctic Expulsion - [Combat] [4]  - [T3]

In the span of [4] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Charge + 2 Cast) the Fjarriagua may coalesce her energy within her throat, expelling a cloud of thick icy mist around herself in a [3x3x3] area, before expanding to a [6x6x6] area on the final emote. Those outside the cloud, will find it almost impossible to see those standing within, only seeing at most large blobs of light and shadow, yet incapable of discerning who is standing where. While those within are capable of seeing about arm’s reach around themselves at most.

The mist lasts a total of [3] emotes.

Red Lines

 

PACTING - [T2]

 

 

[Non-Combat]

 

Whether out of gain, or out of sheer desperation after being exposed, the Fjarriagua may pact with those not of their kin, spreading a portion of their Mark directly onto the person, where a bruise-like, frostbitten area forms on it. The pattern of that mark may be carved by the Fjarriagua. Some may inhibit the symbol of an eye for example, as if tattooed on their hand, although its ‘ink’ being frostbite, while others may merely have a bruise on their hand.

A deal, they make, one to benefit both ends. Such as a simple one where, for example, the Fjarriagua’s required to slay someone, in return for having certain material and objects granted, amongst many other reasons one would pact for. Or a way for the Fjarriagua to keep her identity hidden, upon one finding her true nature out. Requiring [3] emotes to conclude it. The person pacted with, may not pull away from the pact, lest it interrupt it, canceling it and requiring the Fjarriagua to cast it again from the ground up.

During this pact, the person is rendered unable to speak of the Fjarriagua and her kin to outside ears, their minds both shifted in a way where they begin to obsess over the pact itself. What may be a benign - constantly thinking of completing the pact - situation, can soon turn into utter obsession, spiraling even into insanity should it take too long. Not even the Fjarriagua is exempt from this obsession.

Although, should the pact take too long to complete, and it is unlikely for either party to complete it, the Fjarriagua may shatter that pact - to a great detriment to whichever party was unable to complete the pact. Causing their mental health to deteriorate to major depression and even bouts of hysteria for the span of [1] OOC Week. This means, should the Fjarriagua be unable to complete her deal, while the pactee completed their side of it, the Fjarriagua may shatter that pact, causing to drop into a horrible bout of depression herself, while the person pacted with remain unaffected, due to completing their pact, now free from its chains.

Should a Fjarriagua wish it, she may Hex the target with a Hex of her choosing - such as Hideous, where their target is required to complete their end of the deal, or - should all fail - wait for the pact to be shattered by the Fjarriagua for that Hex to dissipate.

Upon the completion of the Pact, the person is drawn into a vow of silence, unable to speak about anything they may know about the Fjarriagua, their nature, and those who are one of them. After the completion of the pact, that vow of silence is extended to [1] OOC week, which afterwards they may freely speak of the Fjarriagua.

 

 

ECHOED WHISPERS - [T2]

 

[Non-Combat]

 

Ice is but an extension of the body for the Fjarriagua, wielding the expanse of winter’s domain as if it was yet another limb they always had, with some becoming another mouth that may speak their voice. By infusing a portion of their essence within an object, the Fjarriagua may then whisper words to it, effectively trapping these whispers within the object itself. Causing that object to glisten in a faint, icy blue. Then, should it be interacted with again, the object itself will echo those whispers, freeing both words and magic from itself, rendered mundane.

Red Lines

 

 

 

 

HEXING - [T3]

 

 

[Combat | Non-Combat]

 

The Mark - a curse that inhabits the Fjarriagua - has become their weapon. One that may be twisted in lesser variants, to afflict the poor souls struck by it, albeit temporarily so. Binding to the victim’s soul for the span of [7] OOC days in the case of Lesser Hexes while Greater Hexes only last for [1] OOC hour, or until combat is concluded.

These Hexes may be cast both in and outside of combat - Lesser Hexes being able to be cast within the comfort of their Disguise - by coalescing their energy into their eyes, and muttering chants under their breath over the course of [3] emotes.

Should a Fjarriagua instead decide to lay a Hex upon their victim through physical touch, they are instead required to spend [2] emotes with direct physical contact with their victim, where they may lay that curse onto them, leaving a bruise-like mark on where the victim has been touched.

Greater Hexes may only be casted while the Fjarriagua is out of her disguise, due to the great potential of power they are required to harness.

 

Lesser Hexes

 

 

Crack - [Combat | Non-Combat]

 

The afflicted individual’s skin will be rendered less malleable, and feel slightly more solid. Their skin cracking as it stretches, causing mild pain and itching. Should they be stabbed or stuck, the affected area will crack akin to a thin frozen lake struck by such an attack.  

 

Brittle - [Combat | Non-Combat]  

 

Their joints and bones chilled within, the target will find their joints moving slightly slower, causing moderate pain. These very joints producing disturbing sounds, such as pops as they go, inconveniencing them as they function in their day-to-day life.

 

 

Hideous - [Combat | Non-Combat]  

 

The poor victim affected by such a curse will find their eyes and facial structure altered to resemble a botched, humanlike facial structure of a desired animal. For example, should a Fjarriagua hex their target into a toad-like form, their target will find their eyes grown larger, their mouth made broader and lips grown more bulbous, and their tongue elongated to an abnormal amount, as their saliva is turned colder and stickier, slime-like in substance.

 

Prey - [Combat | Non-Combat]  

 

The victim will be overcome with the sensation of being watched, as they begin to sometimes see odd shapes in the corners of their eyes. Sometimes, they may even hear incomprehensible, yet disturbing whispers echoing within their ears.

 

Greater Hexes

 

Snowstorm - [Combat | Non-Combat]

The afflicted individual’s eyes will be overtaken by a foggy, white hue, causing the victim to be unable to see further than [3] meters around them, as if in the middle of an intense snowstorm.

 

Cryostasis  - [Combat | Non-Combat]

The victim’s blood begins to slow down, their body drastically lowering in temperature as if overtaken by a strong chill, causing them to be rendered sluggish, essentially reducing their movement in combat by [3] blocks, as well as sabotaging their dexterity.

 

Silence - [Combat | Non-Combat]

A loud shriek is let out within the victim’s mind, stuck in a perpetual loop. Such an act disrupts any currently casting mage - and if in combat - disallowing casting for the rest of the encounter, as a migraine takes over. The victim becomes unable to hear anything around them, unless the person addressing them is within [1] block around them.

 

Tranquility - [Combat | Non-Combat]

The victim’s mind is set at peace, akin to a breath of fresh air in a wintery morning, as the sun rises from the horizon. Tranquility is all they begin to feel, seemingly beginning to lose their sense of fear and danger, their anxiety, making them heavily more prone to taking dangerous risks to themselves.

 

Red Lines

 

 

TORMENTED COOKING - [T3]
 

 

[Non-Combat]

 

A far more calculated, yet sinister form of Hexing. The Fjarriagua may mix the appropriate parts of a Descendant with their own blood, granting the combined food or drink the capability of affecting whomever were to eat them.

To create such foods, the Fjarriagua may merely mix those ingredients into whatever she is cooking, or even smash the Descendant parts with her own blood into a paste, where it may be applied onto the finished food, resulting in a cursed variation of it. These foods bring no discerning factors that would make one conclude that they are cursed. Although Fjarriagua may spot their own essence infused within such foods, regardless of which Fjarriagua made them.

Due to Vaettr’s lack of blood, they may instead dig into their own body, retrieving a tiny fragment of themselves, which they may mix with the parts of a Descendant in order to create cursed foods.

Curses through Tormented Cooking last [3] OOC days, unless purged by holy magics. This may be extended should the victim wish so.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ONE WITH FROST - [T4]

 

 

Fjarrigua, upon reaching the fourth tier, have reached the peak of their capabilities. Manipulating ice comes as easy as lifting one’s arm. Their furthered connection allowing them to perform greater feats, such as drawing Hoarfrost directly from Skjoldier, or even coming together to encase creatures in ice.

 

Summon Hoarfrost - [Combat] [3]  - [T4]

In the span of [3] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Charge + 1 Cast) the Fjarriagua may conjure forth ethereal frost directly from the realm of Skjoldier known as Hoarfrost, using it, she may coat her or her allies’ weapon with a thin layer of shards made of deathly cold ice, afflicting those struck by it with second degree frostbite, as well as a searing sensation, should exposed flesh or skin be struck. Though, by swiping their weapon from afar, they may expel a portion of this Hoarfrost in an otherworldly arc of icy light at the speed of an arrow, harming their target as if physically struck by that weapon by the Fjarriagua herself, with a maximum range of [10] blocks.

However used, the Hoarfrost lasts on the weapon for a total of [2] attacks.

 

Red Lines

 

Freeze - [Combat] [5] - [T4] 

 

In the span of [5] emotes (1 Connect + 1 Charge + 3 Cast) the Fjarriagua may begin to spread frost upon their victim (up to an Orc) starting on the [3]rd emote, thickening the ice that surrounds their body on the [4]th emote, which halves the movement of their target - both in terms of distance traveled per emote, and the movement of their body as a whole, such as attacks - before furthering the growth of the ice on the [5]th emote, where they are now fully encased within a large cube of ice, unable to harm nor be harmed.

This block of ice shatters after [4] emotes, with each harsh, blunt strike or strike from magical flames from any outside force taking off [1] emote, allowing it to shatter earlier.

Aiding Fjarriagua may partake in this spell together, should they wish to freeze anything larger than an Orc.

 

Red Lines

 

Ice Dome - [Combat] [4]  - [T4] 

 

In the span of [4] emotes (1 Connect + 3 Control), A Fjarriagua may create a dome of ice around herself, and perhaps even fellow Witches with OOC consent, in a [3]-meter radius in order to defend them, allowing the witch to still manipulate and conjure forth ice around her while encased within said ice. This dome can take about [4] harsh hits from a harsh blunt weapon like a warhammer or a magical fire-based attack, or [5] if using a blade/spear before shattering, sending the Fjarriagua into a daze for [1] emote. Vaettr, due to their superior mastery of ice, are unaffected by the daze.

 

The Dome may be voluntarily or after [5] Turns have passed, be shed off by its inhabitant in the span of [1] emote without the Fjarriagua being stunned if the dome has not suffered any direct hits from any kind of weapon, during this emote she may only attempt to dodge any incoming attacks or move a total of [4] blocks in any direction before continuing on as normal. If the dome has been damaged, then the Fjarriagua would be stunned for [1] emote, exactly as if it had been shattered by another.

 

Fjarriagua may freely cast magic within that dome, so long as they have line of sight, although may not physically move nor be capable of casting any movement-based spells (such as Frostblink)

 

Red Lines

 

 Terror of the Silent Cold - [Combat] [2]  - [T4] 

 

In the span of [2] emotes through constant physical contact, the Fjarriagua, on either a captured - or an OOC-consenting victim - may brutally drain them of their inner warmth, resulting in their body rapidly losing its functions, freezing up in place.

 

Red Lines
 

 

 

 

-They are considered undead.
-They are more susceptible to fire, melting at x2 the pace. This makes them extremely vulnerable to all forms of fire such as draconic, daemonsteel treated in heat, or even medium-density boomsteel due to its ability to be lit on fire.
-Deep stabs caused by Aurum harm them as if they don’t have a muffled sense of pain. As well as forcing the creature into her true form.

-Being frostbitten & frozen entities, the Fjarriagua are more susceptible to blunt attacks, shattering them slightly more easily than they would the typical Descendant, although this renders them slightly more resistant to sharp attacks.

-Due to their frozen soul, Malflame is particularly debilitating, doubling the already-horrible pain it causes, instantly disconnecting the Witch, and disabling her from casting until that malflame is put out.

-Fjarriagua are affected by magical diseases, Azhl, Thanhium and Boomsteel like a normal Descendant would be, although immune to Salium and Rokodra, affecting them like a normal metal would. Should they be affected by any such diseases, if the said disease can be mundanely or alchemically treated, the Fjarrigua can passively heal it off by residing within the passive influence of an Altar, requiring to wait through the full duration of the passive healing period. Otherwise, should the disease be untreatable by those means, then a Ritual of Restoration will need to be held on the affected Fjarriagua.

-Killing a Fjarriagua with fire is considered a soft PK, and requires to be manually brought back.

-In order to Ascend, the Fjarriagua may follow the Ritual of Ascension.
-Proper RP should back up the Ascension, RP that is influential enough to the witch’s storyline, as anything half-assed will disrupt the ritual.
-Becoming a Vaettr consumes [4] magic slots. Follows the same guidelines on what a Fjarriagua may or may not learn, although a Vaettr no longer has blood nor genus, barring Blood Magic.

-Only [1] Fjarriagua may ascend in a month. Putting the Ritual of Ascension on a global cooldown.

-Ascending to Vaettr would mean that the bond that held her so close to herself and her previous coven severs to a degree. While they may still see each other as close friends, or even consider themselves family, or even hold respect for one another due to both possessing the same curse, that Vaettr is no longer held by a tight bond to the coven through the curse itself.

-The movement change is merely aesthetic, posing no real changes to their disguise and combat.
-While they are made of a large quantity of cursed ice, their body itself does not gain in durability nor strength, but rather retaining what they previously had, while keeping in mind the changes to their anatomy.
-Since they are fully ice, they have an innate resistance to slash attacks, as one would find it similarly to trying to cut through a block of ice, while being more vulnerable to blunt attacks, for the same aforementioned reasons.
-They lack genus, and are immune to anything requiring blood or blood flow, such as Azhl, and any other similar venoms, poisons and rare material that may affect them through blood. This means they do not need to breathe at all, their pulse and heartbeat non-existent.
-They cannot consume nor be altered by alchemy.
-They cannot feel any form of pain, due to lacking the nerves for such, manifesting into the complete lack of sense of touch as well, making it difficult for them to adjust throughout the early stages of their Ascension. Although Dragonsflame, Deific magics and Malflame and Thanhium still possess the ability to disconnect them.
-Vaettr are purely made of Greater Cursed Ice, rendering these creatures immune to mundane, alchemical and voidal flames. Dragonsflame, malflame, thanhium and holy magics still harshly affect them, noted under Weaknesses.

-They do not lose connection by mundane means, for example a harsh hammer strike into the arm would not affect them. Yet, should they be struck by any of their weaknesses, the pain will immediately disconnect them, as well as a variety of effects listed under Weaknesses.

-They are no longer fully themselves, their mind completely shifted. Born a new creature, one that cares for nothing more than their kin.
-They may temporarily quell their mental ailments by interacting with their kin.
-Vaettr are highly dependent on their kin, and are unable to survive without having people to call their own. Should they be isolated on their own, they very quickly spiral down into utter insanity.
-Vaettr are capable of witnessing Prophecies.
-At this point, the Vaettr are unable to act against their kin, as their mind is not their own. Being the main pillars of their community. Should they attempt to go against their own kin without proper reasoning, it will be considered powergaming.

-In order to fuel themselves, they require the devoural of an entire Descendant’s corpse,
-Should they neglect it, their body becomes more rigid, slow, eventually turning them similarly to a slowly-moving statue in movement. Crippling them physically. Yet they may continue to cast.
-The feeding lasts [2] OOC weeks.

-Each Vaettr is required to be directly tethered to a specific altar to return to. Should she have no tethered altar, then every death is a Soft-PK, requiring to be manually brought back through the Sabbath of Resurrection. Tethering mechanics under Altar section.

-Due to the lack of coursing blood, killing a Vaettr is only achieved through the loss of their head or through destroying their heart. (Decapitation, shattering the head, piercing one through the heart).

-Malflame comes with great pain, eating away at their frozen soul, and sabotaging their magical capabilities, lowering their tier to T4 until the rest of the combat. Their ice affected, and all ice they cast after being struck by malflame will emit a dim glow the same color of the malflame that struck them.

-Dragonsflame cleanses the corruption plaguing the ice that composes them, not only causing great pain and disconnecting them as well, but requiring a mere [3] dragonsflame strikes to purge the curse within their ice, killing them off, and leaving behind a mundane icy husk.

-Natural weaknesses to thanhium and holy magics, as they are both magical creatures and undead.

 

Visions of Thule - [Non-Combat]

 

Entities of frost, these creatures all possess the Mark - a piece of their corrupted deity - connecting them in one way or another. Through the help of a Vaettr, their very minds may be tapped into, pushing them all into a dreamscape, falling into a trance, akin to a deep sleep, incapable of hearing nor interacting with anything around themselves

Within that dreamscape, the Vaettr may create and set the scene. All forms of physical harm inflicted within that dreamscape are unable to be transferred upon the material realm.

Red Lines 

 

 

Totem - [Non-Combat]

A literal pillar of their worship, the Vaettr may construct Totems through the usage of Cursed Ice, detailing symbolism towards their kin and their worship, placing it upon the physical realm as a tether, allowing their unholy essence to emanate from. Extending the range of influence of Altars, with the Fjarriagua being able to influence the form it takes as it grows, allowing them creative liberty with the totem’s appearance so long as it provides no purpose other than aesthetics.

To create such, a Vaettr with the help of [1] Fjarriagua may plant a seed of Cursed Ice upon the ground, allowing it to take root into the ground, growing into a Human-sized totem.

These totems will radiate the passive aura and effects of a [T1] Altar, although unusable for rituals. They may be destroyed over the course of [3] harsh blunt attacks, or [4] harsh non-blunt attacks.

Red Lines

 

 

 

Presence of the Vaettr - [Combat | Non-Combat] [2]

Ascended, these ice-fueled creatures may radiate power around them passively [5] meters around themselves, an aura that may be toggled in or out with a mere [1] emote. As all those not of their kin can feel their imposing presence looming over them. A feeling of being watched, followed by a strong, chilly sensation coursing down their spine. Yet, to the Fjarriagua and the likes, a sense of comfort is washed over them, granting them a sense of safety and comfort.

While out of her disguise, her aura is no longer held back, further worsening the effects around those within her presence. This may take on a range of sensations, including, but not limited to:

⇀ Feeling their skin slightly stick to their armor, as if tacky.

⇀ Light shivering.

⇀ The sensation of being watched, or stared at.

⇀ Sensation of dread or fear.

⇀ Exhaling a foggy, misty breath every time they breathe.

⇀ Faintly hearing hums or chants in the background.

The Vaettr may choose any of those sensations during her out-of-disguise aura, although may not provide any edge in combat, merely done for roleplay flavor. It must stick to the frost witch theme.

Although, should the Vaettr wish so, she may coalesce her aura in the span of [2] emotes, and send it forth to the person she wishes to target, amplifying its effects further, inflicting them with her own mental distresses until concentration is broken. 

 

 

Red Lines

 

-After ascending, the player must let the ST know which subtype they become through noting it in their CA.
-The Vaettr may not change their subtype, as they are permanently locked to it afterwards.

-Jøkul and Fjarriagua alike are unaffected by the storm, capable of moving and seeing as they normally would.

-The Ividia may move while she is channeling the spell’s [4] emotes, but when the snowstorm goes active, she is rooted to the ground.

-When the storm is active, she does not need to maintain constant concentration to keep it up, allowing her to keep it up as she performs other actions. This means that while she is rooted to the ground and the snowstorm is active, making her an easy target, she may still make sure of her major action per turn to either strike or cast something else.
-The snowstorm itself does not inflict direct physical attacks on anyone, other than the frostbite that the underlayered victims may begin to develop if they stay within for too long.

-Breaking her concentration will immediately dissipate the spell.

-May imbue her own spell or that of a Fjarriagua within her casting range.
-When creating Cursed Ice out of combat, she counts as [2] Vaettr, either doubling the number of Cursed Ice she may create, or creating a larger object with the combination of their sizes.
-The ice being manipulated by the Gydja imbued with Lesser Cursed Ice obtains its properties, in terms of durability, damage, and so on.

-The cursed ice loses its corruption post-combat, turning into mundane ice.

-During this state, the Vaettr is incapable of casting magic of any form, essentially locking it away, nor can she hold any form of civilized weaponry. Using crude, makeshift weaponry such as rocks and whatnot is allowed. Cannot cast ice, cannot hex, etc.

-Due to being unable to cast magic and her human form armor popping off her body during this state, the Vaettr makes up for it in increased strength and movement. This is to say that she may move [5] blocks an emote, or [10] dashing.
-The Vaettr may not do anything the player cannot mechanically do, such as climbing up walls vertically. This is to say that the Vaettr may not scale walls to get to the other side unless the player is mechanically able to do so.
-The Skripi's strength is increased to the next tier. Meaning if the Skripi's original race was Elf, they will gain Orc strength while they are transformed, returning back to Elf strength once their transformation is reverted.

-The armor they wear during transformation will burst and break as they grow in size, resulting in them being armourless. Yet, their skin thickens to that of padded leather in durability.

-Her claws, being made out of her own body, are of Greater Cursed Ice, and therefore follow all rules of Greater Cursed Ice.

-This is not a connection-based ability, meaning should the Skripi be struck while in her transformed form, it will not force her to revert.

-Requires ST Signature.

-Should it be tethered to a Vaettr, the Vaettr’s username must be written on the sign.

-In the case of there being no tethered altar to the Vaettr, she Soft-PKs on every death requiring to be manually brought back by her kin through the Sabbath of Resurrection.

-Corpse must be 24 OOC hours fresh at most, and may not be NPCed.

-It is required that when the emotes are being logged (such as in google docs), the usernames of the partaking Fjarriagua & Vaettr are written down, as well as the username of the dead Descendant in order to help the ST keep track.

-While they may heal by an altar automatically by resting nearby, they may not heal anything considered unhealable automatically. (Loss of limbs, appendages, organs, etc). Rather only sealing the wounds, leaving them with stumps.

-The opening / closing entryways, and vertically moving platforms are merely a cosmetic change to doors and lifts, and provide no benefit whatsoever, nor can they be used as traps. This is merely to represent the altar as a living entity, with the lair acting as its body. Should the altar be destroyed, the lifts and doors will cease to function.
-Those not immune to cold will quickly be afflicted with stage 2 frostbite on exposed and under-protected areas of skin should they not be careful, ramping up to stage 3 were they to remain for long.
-Non-magical fires within its area of influence are snuffed out.

-The heightened form of dexterity is a moderate increase, although not a substantial one. They cannot for example dodge arrows, but they may have an easier time with reactions and movement.
-Should the altar have Ritual of Desolation active, its area of influence stretches as far as the desolated lands are.
-To destroy the altar, it must sustain [7] harsh, blunt attacks to it, or channeled magical flames for up to 4 emotes.

-A Vaettr counts as [2] Fjarriagua.

-Altars may be purged through Paladinism. Requiring [2] Paladins at T1 Altar, [3] at T2, [4] at T3.

-Druids may purge it through Blight Healing, following the same numbers as Paladins for purging.

-A Vaettr will innately learn of these rituals during the Ascension, enlightened with its knowledge.

THE UNHOLY SABBATHS

 

Sabbath of Reconstruction - [T1] Altar

 

 

Their body, stuck in a cryostasis, is denied of its own healing. For their struck body may only recover with the presence of an Altar. Even then, presence alone is not enough, for organs and appendages do not naturally recover, requiring the intervention of their own kin's direct magic with the aid of the Altar to reconstruct what was lost.

Such a ritual requires [2] Fjarriagua, where they conjure forth ice from the very altar beside them, and reshape what was lost.

In the case of a witch losing an appendage, organ (non-vital), limb, or anything one could not reasonably heal over time, the Sabbath of Healing may be performed by [2] Fjarriagua.

Ligaments & Lesser Organs: Ligaments such as ears, noses, fingers, and toes, or organs such as eyes or tongues, or any lesser non-vital organ may be regenerated, creating the new ligament or organ from cursed ice and replacing the old one. After the completion of the ritual, the organ or ligament will need some getting used to over the course of 3 days, its function slowly coming into effect throughout that time.

 Limbs: Limbs such as arms and legs may be regenerated over the course of [1] OOC week, creating a new limb over time where the old one once was. Until the limb is completely formed, the Witch will be unable to use that limb, though they may disguise it to appear like a sealed wound.  

 

 

Red Lines:

 

 

Sabbath of Creation - [T1] Altar

 

 

The most creative of all rituals. The Sabbath of Creation, is a sabbath allowing the Fjarriagua to create and do all forms of things that are outside the box. From conjuring forth an unholy relic, infused with their magic, to creating new rituals, charms, or even abilities if they so wish. The possibilities are endless, and it is all dependent on how they aim to make it work.

Yet, the base requirements are all the same. Requiring the minimum presence of [4] Fjarriagua, as well as the corpse of a fresh Descendant, in order for the Sabbath to take place.

 

Red Lines

 

 Sabbath of Corruption  - [T1] Altar

 

 

Corrupted is their very essence, a Vaettr, or [2] Fjarriagua may spread the Curse coursing through their veins onto an animal, either live or freshly dead, essentially corrupting them into ice-like creatures. The creature's body will begin to freeze over. Its body as a whole, corrupted with their very essence, and in turn, suffer from a similar transformation: Its eyes growing a dim, azure glow within their sockets, as their maw grows rows and rows of extremely sharp and jagged teeth, similarly to those of a Fjarriagua. Their blood turned extremely slow and slushy, their heartbeat slowed almost to the point of non-existence, and their breathing rendered nil. Gaining an immunity to the cold, but in return, suffering from all weaknesses a Fjarriagua's body possesses; such as Aurum, Deific-adjacent magics and Fire.

 

Due to possessing the same Curse that overtook the Fjarriagua, they may shift in and out of disguise in the span of [1] minor action, allowing them to look alive.

 

 

Sabbath of Desolation  - [T2] Altar

 

 

The Sabbath of Desolation, the Fjarriagua’s most chaotic ritual, where they come together to inflict the surrounding environment with a severe blizzard, leading flora to die as the environment becomes akin to a freezing tundra. This is often used by their kin to make their region more hospitable to their kind, whilst also making it more difficult for mortals to intrude.

 

Such a ritual requires a Vaettr, followed by a minimum of [3] Fjarriagua, where they infuse the altar with their energy, pushing it over the edge, causing the altar’s roots to suddenly wake up, and rapidly expand within the ground below. The sudden mass-infusion of their unholy magic allows its power upon the land to rapidly expand.

 

Over the course of the same OOC day after the ritual concludes, the region begins to drastically reduce in temperature, as regions colder than a desert will succumb to its full effects, reducing one’s vision to [6] blocks around them, and littering the entire area with ice and snow, as an eternal snowstorm takes over the whole region.

Red Lines

 

 

 

 

Sabbath of Resurrection  - [T2] Altar

 

 

A taxing, yet necessary sabbath. The Sabbath of Resurrection, is one capable of bringing their fallen peers back from the dead, as they can truly never die.
Upon their vessel being destroyed beyond what is considered fixable, what is considered to be enough to kill a mundane person, their soul escapes that vessel of theirs, and gets drawn towards an altar, stuck in a state of perpetual agony. A wail that only their kin can hear, begging to be brought back to a new vessel.

This ritual consists of bringing the deceased Fjarriagua’s vessel back to the altar, or - in the case of the lack of a body - reconstructing that body from beginning to end. Should that vessel be rebuilt from zero, the Vaettr will be left exhausted, unable to cast any magics for the rest of the OOC day.

Then, may a Vaettr begin conjuring Cursed Ice, filling in what is missed of the vessel. Mending the gaps, rebuilding lost limbs and organs, and essentially turning that vessel to its prime, frozen state.
Once the vessel is ready, the Vaettr may pull that soul out of the altar, and bind it to the new vessel, allowing the Fjarriagua to return from the dead, albeit in a temporarily weakened state.

 

Should a Vaettr be slain, with these creatures struggling to find another Vaettr to bring her back, then through [5] Fjarriagua upon a pre-existing altar, they may perform such a ritual. A taxing ritual, especially since the Vaettr shatters upon death, making her corpse unretrievable, requiring them to conjure that Cursed Ice themselves, draining them all from any form of casting for the rest of the OOC day.

 

 

 

Red Lines

 

 

Sabbath of Ascension  - [T3] Altar

 

 

To attain the status of Vaettr, is to sacrifice oneself for their kin - body and mind. Considered holiest of all Fjarriagua, yet a taxing role nonetheless.
Preparation of the ritual is one that has to be performed by the Fjarriagua to be ascended, all by herself. To hunt down a non-Follower Descendant that was once close to her. A task that, if anyone else of her kin were to aid, would be rejected by the altar.

Once completed, the Fjarriagua, with the help of [2] Vaettr, may then prepare the ritual. Offering the freshly slain corpse to the altar, and tossing all forms of personal keepsakes, and any other sentimental objects deemed personal to one’s past life.

Then may they conduct the ritual together, as the altar’s roots consume all that is offered to it. Should the altar deem the Fjarriagua worthy, then the roots too will drag the Fjarriagua within its very walls, trapping her within the center as she undergoes transformation for [3] OOC days.

 

Red Lines

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sabbath of Return  - [T3] Altar

 

 

Capable of visiting their own home - Skjoldier. A ritual requiring a minimum of [1] Vaettr, as well as any Fjarriagua that decide to partake in such a ritual in order to enter their own land once more. Their bodies flaking off, pulled into the very core of the altar, as their vessel is then reformed upon Skjoldier, where they may remain there until their own return or death.

 

Red Lines

 

-Lesser Cursed Ice must be made at an Altar, done by the Fjarriagua conjuring ice and then weaving their own magic into it, giving it a dark shade. Limited to black, blue or purple.
-Cursed Ice possesses the durability of steel.

-Arrows and bolts may be created in a bundle of 1 to 5 at a time, depending on the Tier. Each tier allowing [1] arrow, meaning that T5 allows 5, while T3 allows 3.  
-The aesthetics of the Cursed Ice range from black, to even dark blue and dark purple. To the typical eye, it looks like a dark metal, or even obsidian. With the magic radiating within the item, becoming visible to all eyes should the Fjarriagua wearing or holding the item connect to her magic, needing to only stand near the cursed ice when it comes to structures. The effects are purely for the sake of flavor and cosmetics, thus they may never give any combative advantage to the Witch.
-The Fjarriagua may only create [1] object alone. Any additional Fjarriagua partaking in the ritual may increase the object’s size or count.
-Being twice as cold as ice itself, the effects of being struck by the Cursed Ice should not be overlooked at all, for it comes a searing pain, with a rapid development of frostbite, as well as all the effects one would expect from such a temperature. (i.e tissue adhesion, deep tissue damage should there be prolonged contact, hypothermia)
-Cursed Ice is immune to any naturally occuring heat or flame, such mundane or alchemical fire, with magical ones being the only thing capable of melting it away. Only flames conjured by or blessed with magic may melt it away, requiring [4] emotes or [2] in the case of Dragonflame and Blue fire.
-Lesser Cursed Ice, unlike its Greater counterpart, does not possess the lingering frostbite’s effects.
-Requires the Fjarriagua’s player signature.

-Similarly to Lesser Cursed Ice, this must be done at an altar, although the Vaettr is unable to create them, but rather drawing upon them through the altar.
-Cursed Ice possesses the durability of steel.
-May only create [1] a week, due to the heavily taxing nature that it is. Its size cannot surpass what can be worn on one’s person.
-Arrows and bolts may be created in a bundle of [5] at a time.

-Non-Fjarriagua, Vaettr or any of their kin will find it impossible to wield Greater Cursed Ice, feeling it to be oddly too heavy to even pick up. Let alone the damage that would be caused to their skin should they dare touch the extremely frigid material.
-The aesthetics of the Cursed Ice range from black, to even dark blue and dark purple. To the typical eye, it looks like a dark metal, or even obsidian. With the magic radiating within the item, only becoming visible should the Fjarriagua wearing or holding the item connect to her magic, needing to only stand near the cursed ice when it comes to structures. The effects are purely for the sake of flavor and cosmetics, thus they may never give any combative advantage to the Witch.
-Being thrice as cold as ice itself, the effects of being struck by the Cursed Ice should not be overlooked at all, for it comes a searing pain, with a rapid development of frostbite, as well as all the effects one would expect from such a temperature. (i.e tissue adhesion, deep tissue damage should there be prolonged contact, hypothermia)
-Cursed Ice is immune to flames of all types, requiring to be struck by Holy magics for [3] emotes in order to fully melt it. Such as Templar fire.
-Dragonsflame, on the other hand, may purge the corrupted energy present within the Cursed Ice, rendering the object mundane ice after [3] strikes.

-Greater Cursed Ice, unlike its Lesser counterpart, possesses the lingering frostbite’s effects.

-Requires ST signature.

-Lingering Frostbite is a magical frostbite that is applied on all those struck by Greater Cursed Ice.

-Requires blood circulation, and to make contact with blood in a wound for the Lingering Frostbite’s effects to take place.

-Lingering Frostbite effects may be purged by deific magics.

-The lingering frostbite’s effects may be quelled for the most part, although cannot be reduced below stage [2] frostbite.

-Stage [2] frostbite lasts [3] OOC days.

Tier 1

 

A Fjarriagua’s true beginning. Throughout this tier, the Fjarriagua begins to undergo physical and mental changes, to fit the known description of a typical Witch, as they begin to grasp their newfound unholy powers. Lasts [1] OOC week.

 

Available Spells:

 

Frost Weaving, Disguise, Swoon.

 

Capability:

 

The Fjarriagua may only cast their spells a total of thrice per encounter, with a maximum range of 10 blocks. Overuse will cause faint cracks akin to cracks on glass appear throughout their body. Should they continue to cast, their fingers begin to fall off on the first cast, then their arms, and finally, they fall unconscious and broken, requiring to be Resurrected by their kin.

 

 

 

 

 

Tier 2

 

In this tier, becoming a Fjarriagua may no longer be reversed or cleared from the persona. A metamorphosis that's both profound and profoundly painful, the sensation comparable to their very essence being impaled by spectral shards of ice - a torment that, over time, coalesces into a chilling acceptance, the Fjarriagua’s mental ailments reach their peak during this tier, as she slowly grows into acceptance of her new state, growing more resentful of Descendants, and more codependent on her own kin.
 

Lasts [2] OOC weeks.

 

Available Spells:

Frost Weaving, Disguise, Frost Mending, Swoon, Pacting, Echoed Whispers.

 

Capability:

They can use their magic up to 15 meters around them. Their base weapon-conjuring size cannot surpass that of a shortsword.
Fjarriagua are incapable of casting magic more than a few times per encounter before faint cracks akin to cracks on glass appear throughout their body. Should they continue to cast, their fingers begin to fall off on the first cast, then their arms, and finally, they fall unconscious and broken, requiring to be Resurrected by their kin.

 

 

Tier 3

Attuned to Skjoldier, the Fjarriagua is now moderately better with their casting, as they begin to explore the ways to twist and spread their Mark in its lesser form on poor victims. Having found a better spot within their coven, as their mental health continues to deteriorate. Lasts [3] OOC weeks.

Available Spells:

Frost Weaving, Disguise, Hexing, Frost Mending, Swoon, Tormented Cooking

 

Capability:

They can use their magic up to 20 meters around them. Their base weapon-conjuring size cannot surpass that of a spear.
The Fjarriagua, now having become more adept with casting, can cast more often than not, although overuse can cause faint cracks akin to cracks on glass appear throughout their body. Should they continue to cast, their fingers begin to fall off on the first cast, then their arms, and finally, they fall unconscious and broken, requiring to be Resurrected by their kin.

 

Tier 4

 

Now requiring to be Marked by the Vaettr once more, the curse rapidly consuming their body, as a great portion of their soul frozen. The Fjarriagua now reaches the height of their rank. Capable of casting at a proficient level. Their mental unrest reaching its peak, as well as their dependency on their kin. Lasts [4] OOC weeks.

 

Available Spells:

All Fjarriagua spells

 

Capability:

They can now use their magic up to 25 meters around them. Their base weapon-conjuring size cannot surpass that of a halberd or a larger shield.
The Fjarriagua has now become proficient with casting, capable of casting all that is known to them. While much harder to overuse their spells, it always remains a risk. For if they are not careful, faint cracks akin to cracks on glass appear throughout their body. Should they continue to cast, their fingers begin to fall off on the first cast, then their arms, and finally, they fall unconscious and broken, requiring to be Resurrected by their kin.

 

 

Tier 5

 

Vaettr. No longer mortal, no longer themselves. Their body purely made of Cursed Ice, offering their vessel as its tether to the realm. These creatures now truly being dependent on their kin, caring for no one but their own, plagued by mental unwellness.

 

Available Spells:

All of their kin’s spells, and all Vaettr spells.

 

Capability:

They can now use their magic up to 30 meters around them, having surpassed mastery of the magic, as overuse of their spells can only be done through abusing their Vaettr spells. Fjarriagua spells having no effect on them. Though, should they overuse their magic, faint cracks akin to cracks on glass appear throughout their body. Should they continue to cast, their fingers begin to fall off on the first cast, then their arms, and finally, they fall unconscious and broken, requiring to be Resurrected by their kin.

Should this rewrite be accepted, all Mothers will be reverted to Fjarriagua, as well as everyone having the option to revert their CA should they not want to continue with this lore piece, with the grandfathers of this lore being myself and two more people to be discussed with ST.

Fjarriagua who possess a TA may keep the TA.
