Infused Lineage
There is a lot of magic in Choradesa. Much of it is just floating around in the air, doing nothing. The Infused, however, are very sensitive to this when they are concieved. Any being with the Infused lineage is likely to be shaped by the ambient magic in the area. Those born in areas of high Gala sanctity will have many characteristics and powers of a follower of the Gala for example.
These powers and forms can be passed down through the generations, but it's not uncommon for new features to pop up randomly in a newborn. An Infused that has no other lineage usually manifests 3 different forms of magic. An Infused that is mixed with other races will only have 1 magical identity.
Some physical attributes about each manifestation will show up in different strengths. Some manifestations may be completely abscent physically, but still be a part of the Infused. You are unlikely to meet an Infused that looks exactly like another.
