Explanation of Furycrafting Strength

The stronger an Aleran's furycrafting gift is, the greater the effect both in terms of distance, range, and the degree of enhancement possible with internal manifestation. In addition, how strong a furycrafter’s gift is also affects even lesser manifestation of their gift. For example, an Air Crafter at the strength of a High lord can make themselves fly faster than an Air Crafter of a Knight's strength. When the Crafter at High Lord’s strength calls on the Earth for strength, they are stronger physically than a Knight level Earthcrafter.

It costs 15 points to "Max Out" in an element. You cannot take a higher level of skill for an element without first obtaining those lower. For example, becoming a Knight level (2 pts) Earthcrafter means you have also taken the Citizen (1 pt) and Freeman (1 pt) levels for a total of 4 pts spent.

The examples listed under each power affect and element below are intended to serve as examples of how furycrafting might be applied. They should serve as ideas rather than hard limits as your creativity is one of the most defining aspects of fury crafting. As long as your idea/use adheres to the parameters of the power level you've obtained, there is no other limit to what you can accomplish with furycrafting .

Internal Manifestation - Internalized manifestations of crafting work on the senses as well as focusing on enhancing the physical capabilities of the Crafter. Most of these manifestations are subtle and generally are undetectable as they are internal to the Crafter.

• Earth:
  • Strength of the Earth - Imbues oneself with advanced strength, capable of reaching supernatural levels that equal a vampire at Knight level power and Angels at the power level of a High Lord.
  • Earth Sense - The crafter can sense things moving on the earth, beneath the earth, and beneath the ground. Additionally the crafter can sense things that are in the ground such as bodies, or veins of metals, coal and oil, etc .
• Air
  • Speed of the Wind - The crafter gains supernatural speed when drawn upon, but otherwise finds themselves to be faster and more agile than the normal human.
  • Feel the Air - The crafter can feel the movement of air and air currents around him, allowing him to have a split second warning in the case of someone moving to strike or as a way to navigate through a dark room or when blind.
• Fire
  • Frenzy - Imbues oneself with bloodlust and fury, leading to a frenzy and burst of energy that can be channeled into any activity the crafter undertakes.
  • Generate Heat - The Furycrafter can generate warmth from the body, allowing the crafter to endure harsher temperatures without suffering any ill effects from the cold. This can also be used offensively, but the heat generated isn't much warmer than something fresh from the oven.
• Water
  • Sense Emotions - Ability to sense emotions of those nearby. This sense of other's emotions allows the watercrafter to 'hear the truth' which means the crafter cannot be lied to except for by a psychopath, someone using metalcrafting to block their emotions, or specific power that allows someone to deceive without being caught.
  • Youthful Vitality - Watercrafters do not suffer from the effects of aging like other people, and generally look considerably younger than they are after they reach adulthood. It's not unlikely that a 80 year old will look like a fifty year old. While they may look younger, they do not actually have slower aging than normal.
• Wood
  • Peerless Accuracy - With a bow and arrow, spears, or atlatl, a wood crafter has incredible accuracy and extended distance with wooden weapons. Combined with other crafting arts, a woodcrafter can perform feats which are just plain 'impossible'.
  • Tracking & Hunting - Woodcrafters are master trackers and hunters, capable of following old trails through dense underbrush and masking their scent and presence from being detected.
• Metal
  • Sense Metal - Metalcrafters are capable of sensing the presence of metal and metallic objects, a feat which enables them to engage in sword fights in total darkness. This sense also ensures that they are nearly impossible to sneak up on when their stalker is carrying metal objects.
  • Enhanced Endurance - Metalcrafters are able to call on their metal weapons and armor for increased resiliece and stamina, as well as dulling or removing their ability to sense pain. This increase in resilience allows them to go longer without food, sleep, or water, and allows them to take more damage before suffering injuries.

External Application - At this level of power the crafter is able to begin manipulating the elements directly through their Furies. They cannot make these furies manifest physically but the furies now function as distinct and discrete entities. It is at this stage of power that the crafter will typically name their fury.

• Earth:
  • Earth Raft - The crafter can glide across the ground as if standing on a raft and sailing over the earth, unimpeded by uneven terrain, or fatigue.
  • Earth Ward - Creates a ward of earth capable of stopping projectiles, magics, animals, and other objects. This can be a traditional wall, a hill, a hole, or any other form.
• Air:
  • Lens Crafter - Ability to bend air into a lens that allows one to see farther or create an echo chamber for voice communications.
  • Levitate - The crafter can lift, hold, and move objects similar to the abilities related to telekinesis.
• Fire:
  • Firelight - Ability to manipulate light and shadow produced by a single source of fire.
  Fireball - Ability to create fireballs of varying sizes and heat intensity.
• Water:
  • Aquatic Spy - Ability to listen in on conversations, using the presence of water near the speakers as a hearing conduit.
  • Ranged Communication - Ability to vocalize through the presense of water in order to communicate with those at the target end.
• Wood:
  • Shape Wood - Ability to shape wood and plant materials (living or dead) into any shape the crafter can envision, including tools, ropes or lassos, ladders, etc.
  • Miracle Grow - Ability to cause rapid growth or decay in plants, trees, and similar flora. This can be used offensively such as ensnaring prey, or harmlessly as in making flowers bloom brighter and bigger.
• Metal:
  • Steelforge - Ability to harden any metal object, making it as hard as steel, extra durable, and more resistant to damage.

Fury Manifestation - At this level of power, the Furycrafter is actually able to cause the fury or furies bound to it to take on a solid, physical shape. The ability to have a physical fury is often considered the first real milestone of gauging true furycrafting power and further enables the Furycrafter to begin understanding and using advanced furycrafting techniques. Furies can take on whatever shape their Crafter desires, but named furies have a tendency to take on specific shapes. As an example: Brutus, a powerful earth fury, often appears to be a hound made of stone with gleaming emeralds for eyes.

  • Hunter's Trail - The crafter has the ability to track a target by using the plant life around it.

External Mastery & Furybinding - The pinnacle of furycrafting arts allow the furycrafter to utilize very, very subtle applications of Furycraft to achieve great things, or to create spectacles of power which are both awesome and frightening. At this level of power, the scions of the High Lords and the House of Gaius are able to do things like raise continents, fetch up coal and oil from the depths of the earth, reshape land and vegetation as they seem fit and to deploy the elements as weapons of mass destruction.
