Mortal Soul

A mortal soul is a spirit that is native to the mortal plane. It is a being comprised of The Creation and the un-life given life by power from the Shadow Realms. While both the gods and devils are not pure expressions of The Creation or The un-life, the strength of one nearly completely suppresses the other.

One of the benefits of having a mortal soul is the strength of Free Will. Many scholars have studied this over the centuries, but the simple understanding is that a mortal soul can change the balance of the three powers within them by both actions and will. This is not something that a person can simply announce or declare, but instead is how they reflect upon themselves and interact with others. This “community” spirit leaves its mark on them and they upon the community.

The Creation

From the Creation comes the drive to build, explore, expand, and discover. From the Creation comes the need to build a community and become a part of something much larger than the self. It looks beyond the self to create something that will outlast your own mortality. The sacrifice of the one for the betterment of the all.

Un-life

From the un-life comes the desire to thrive, destroy, survive, and the will drive back all opposition. This is the drive of the self above all others. When pushed by desperation the needs of yourself outweigh those of the community. It is not to tear down they community, but instead see the self as the highest purpose or ideal of the community. All should sacrifice for the one to survive.

Shadow Realms

The Shadow Realms is intuition, artistic expression, poetry, and imagination. This is the understanding of the self as not just a great cog in the machine nor the most important piece, but instead the ability to imagine the entire machine and machines beyond it. Above all other beings in the universe only the mortal have the ability to imagine outside of their own experiences.
