Brands

Brands are a series of magical symbols that emblazon themselves onto the skin of a living creature, bestowing them with great power. They are believed to be manifestations of the 13 Divines and the only physical mark they leave upon the world. Brands have two different tiers: minor and major. Brands typically manifest during times of great stress or during adolescence. When a Brand manifests, it is typically as a Minor Brand - however there are rare cases where a previously unbranded individual manifests a Major Brand. Most individuals can only manifest a single brand, but in exceedingly rare cases, an creature of great magical potential may manifest more than one.
