Lacun Marks (EDIT: And a bit of Reimancy...)

Postby Isolde Seibold on March 8th, 2015, 9:03 pm

Hey there. I was just reading Sedge's post about marriage and it got me wondering. So here I am.

Does anyone happen to know if a Lacun mark is forever? I ask because my character was once married. Isolde, however, is a Nuit. Would a Lacun mark transfer with a Nuit's soul to another body, do you think? And out of curiosity, what would happen were you to have and break multiple marriages? Would the Lacun marks overlap, or sit side-by-side, or could you only ever have one (perhaps the new one would just completely replace the old)?

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: I decided to add this in because I was considering it earlier today, and didn't want to make another question thread when I already had one up.

What exactly does 'earth' entail in reimancy? Isolde's second element is earth, so I'd like to know. When I think of earth reimancy, I assume that most people are thinking of rocks... but what about regular soil, gemstones, sand, and clay? Do those count as 'earth', or am I over-reaching the boundaries?

Lacun Marks (EDIT: And a bit of Reimancy...)

I can take a gander at half of this.

Since gnosis marks transfer for nuits, and Chevas marks are divinely mediated (albeit not gnosis), I would think they transfer as well.

I'd expect the Lacun mark to accommodate multiple marriages, similar to how the Chevas mark changes with added partners. Not sure if that'd come out as a series of marks, or a single mark with facets representing each lost marriage.

I've no comment on Reimancy, sorry.

Here is a link that may help with the reimancy question you have. It is also mentioned that reimancy para-elements are left vague to leave room for freedom and fun in creating new ones (within reason).
“Method is more important than strength, when you wish to control your enemies. By dropping golden beads near a snake, a crow once managed to have a passer-by kill the snake for the beads.” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Oh wow, cool link Rayage. I didn't see that before, but that pretty much answers that question. Thanks a lot!

And thank you too, Khida. That makes sense. I think I'll RP it as Isolde having a Lacun mark, then. It's silly that I never considered that she might have one until just a few days ago.
