Absolut Unit
“The body is temple, one who prioritizes health and fitness is an Absolute Unit. Their focus has been the mastery of their minds and bodies. Those who I have met in my time that I would say live up to the name are in the shape they want to be. Disciplined, integral, social, and strong.”
Core Effect Tree; Only Available at Awakening
Since you were a child taking care of your body and mind has been routine to the point of nearly autonomous. Meditation, diet, and exercise. You are charismatic, wise, and strong. Although possibly quirky.
Awakening: Something changed. You joined the military or militia, one of the churches. A cause. Something has broken your near life long routine. Pushing you harder than ever before, and you are ready for it.
You and the marble statues have something in common. The perfection of uniqueness. They’ve noticed.
Chasing Ralipal
Ralipal in a rough translation is “To be Perfect or Ideal”
The vast majority of military orphans find themselves in the halls of the monastery. Raised in strict discipline and often exposed to the harsh consequences of the poor choices of the criminals that serve time in the mines, and of those fallen to poverty.
