The Claim of Hell
Transmission & Vectors
The claim is 'transmitted' by Hell. She picks out beings that are young and powerful. And she claims them.
Causes
Hell always needs beings to keep the creatures of Hell in check. Sometimes, beings who are affected go to live in Hell and are known as the King / Queen / Prince / Princess of Hell. Some beings prefer to live normally in Bailse.
Symptoms
The being's eyes turn a piercing red that is the same colour as the fires of Hell. Creatures of Hell are usually attracted to the being. Powerful beings attract larger, more powerful and more evil creatures but with time, they gather the strength required to dispel them. Less powerful beings attract smaller creatures of Hell.
Treatment
Using sheer willpower, beings can diffuse the creatures of Hell that stalk them by controlling and animating them.
With the help of Galdur Oxygen"> they can calm the fiery red in their eyes and make their eyes a smoky grey like embers or dying ashes, or a warm gold like a glittery flame.
Nowadays, small tablets, the colour of sleepy lilac mayflowers, are used. They are infused with Galdur Oxygen"> and help the being to look more normal.
Affected Groups
Usually, young people are affected so that they grow up with the abilities and are eventually able to fulfill the purpose of the claim. The age range is around 6 - 14 years old.
Beings who are claimed are extremely powerful with their abilities and the claim strengthens them.
Cultural Reception

Using Galdur Oxygen"> they were able to change their appearance and fit in with society.

Very interesting. I want to know more about the implication that Hell was thought of as an evil place, but isn't necessarily.
I'm actually working on that! But thanks for the tip!
