-===Specialty Access===+== Corithil ==
 +At somewhat frail bond strength, owl consorts are granted the ability to conjure a corithil, a sphere of raw selero. Corithils may be used as melee weapons and are wielded alone to use. Their melee deal lunar damage and run off of your [[wyrding]] and [[shield]] skills for attack rating.
 +However the main benefit of having a corithil is that they allow use of a special attack. This special attack can be performed manually by concentrating on directing a (slight/moderate/significant/tremendous/vast) amount of energy through it at a target. The level of energy that one is able to direct is dependent on bond strength and magickal skills, as are the attack rating and damage. The special attack works much like some RW runes, where it can be automated through maneuvers but the rating is not visible to you because it is triggered by a thought process.
-Initial bonus specialties are provided to:+ You grasp your sphere, holding it against the palm of your right hand by dipping your ring and middle fingers slightly
 + into its yielding surface, as though it were liquid, and keeping your thumb, index finger, and little finger curved
 + gently across it as though it were solid.
 + Your sphere sends an array of elemental sensations through your right hand and into the rest of your body: you feel
 + hot, then cold, then wet, then dry as the shifting impressions flow through your muscles and skin and make you
 + intimately aware of every part of your anatomy.
 + You feel as though a stray moonbeam has illuminated unknown corners in your mind, and it dances with the secret

-<br>Note from Ralnos: There seems to be three tiers of elemental attacks.

The middle tier attacks take two types of energies, as far as I know, and take more significant amounts. (Stream of Elemental Water takes one water energy per use, Jet of Stormwater takes around 3 and some air energy as well.) The top tier attack (only one is known so far) hasn't been much tested yet.+
-<br>Note from Castien: I`m not sure there is such a well defined pattern. Blast of Earthfury(earth+chaos) and Gale of Shrieking Wind(air+sonic) both seem to use one type of energy. You also could look at the special attack rating for your specialty attacks to see which of the 4 magics they use.+

Charms

Corithil

At somewhat frail bond strength, owl consorts are granted the ability to conjure a corithil, a sphere of raw selero. Corithils may be used as melee weapons and are wielded alone to use. Their melee deal lunar damage and run off of your wyrding and shield skills for attack rating. However the main benefit of having a corithil is that they allow use of a special attack. This special attack can be performed manually by concentrating on directing a (slight/moderate/significant/tremendous/vast) amount of energy through it at a target. The level of energy that one is able to direct is dependent on bond strength and magickal skills, as are the attack rating and damage. The special attack works much like some RW runes, where it can be automated through maneuvers but the rating is not visible to you because it is triggered by a thought process.

You grasp your sphere, holding it against the palm of your right hand by dipping your ring and middle fingers slightly
into its yielding surface, as though it were liquid, and keeping your thumb, index finger, and little finger curved
gently across it as though it were solid.
Your sphere sends an array of elemental sensations through your right hand and into the rest of your body: you feel
hot, then cold, then wet, then dry as the shifting impressions flow through your muscles and skin and make you
intimately aware of every part of your anatomy.
You feel as though a stray moonbeam has illuminated unknown corners in your mind, and it dances with the secret
knowledge of the night.

While wielded, the corithil will slowly replenish the energy type associated with the plane it is attuned to (or spirit if attuned to the moon).

Attuning a Corithil

Corithils may be attuned to the Elemental Planes and an adjacent Amalgamal Plane by visualizing a representation of those planes. Attuning the corithil to a given element provides a large bonus to its associated attribute, as well as enabling the discharge attack of that element. As the consort's power grows and they are able to draw in and channel more and more massive amounts of energy through their corithil, other phenomena have been known to curl off and manifest.

  • If attuned to the moon, the corithil will consume spirit when directing energy.
  • If you are outside at night and the moon is visible, all energies associated with the bond will regenerate.
You feel the light of the moon slip beneath your flesh and fill the well of your spirit, replenishing the earth, air, 
water, and fire within you.
  • A Cimbran forest owl started off at level 2, with 64 more experience required to reach level 3.

Conjoin stuff

  • Owls have 6 points of night vision, and 4 of light sensitivity.
  • They have "Mimic" sentience. Despite this, they still have Hebetude (no creativity) and no Awareness.
  • Their assimilitivity is 0.
  • Their limbs are really weak. Head 9 HP, body 20 on a level 9 owl, to give you an idea.
  • They can carry up to 7 dekans in weight (may increase with bond progress and leveling up).

Bond Failure

You sense a sort of mild condescension from the tabby female owl, as
though it considers you to be immature or childlike in some way.
