| 1 | + | Magic: Magic is seldom practiced in the world of Tivrasus, if only because it's almost exclusively focused around sacrifice. Harnessing magic in Tivrasus slowly corrupts the user over time, but in exchange, they gain access to powerful rituals and spells from rather...shifty patrons. |

| 3 | - | The Manastream/Lifestream: Massive, blue-green pillar that spears through several planes. The Manastream is never surrounded by life; except for primordial forces constantly spewn forth only to be destroyed a week later. The Lifestream is also a term given to the entire set of planes layered upon eachother. Merely being near -- let alone touching the Lifestream risks madness -- and more commonly, death.

Also known as "magic", Mana can be sacraficed from oneself in order to alter reality. Around the Lifestream, one can find a 'liquid' mana, which forms small tributaries that crystallize around the crater it rises out of. |

The first sign of this is generally always disconnection from the world around them; followed by a mild addiction to augmenting the body. However, should they continue to abuse the augments, they will go mad. Those who suffer cyber psychosis are often put down, as a surgery tampering with the brain is obviously, not only extremely costly, but often ineffecient. |
