Soulbrands Physical / Metaphysical Law in Hellbor Heights | World Anvil

Soulbrands

Dozens of Soulbrands exist, but there are a primary set which have prominence over all others, as they have been traditionally mapped to a series of major constellations or supernatural phenomena. Soulbrands are particular "typings" of souls, which gather under these categories. An individual does not become possessed by a Soulbrand which does not fit them; a Soulbrand is created by the pure expression of the possessor's soul: a brutal murderer can awaken their Mourning Soul when they discover they have accidentally killed someone they cared about, while more than a few discontented loner types have been found to possess the Rambler's Soul.  

SOULS OF THE GALEAID

  Souls whose corresponding constellations are found in the Galeaid mega-constellation, which depicts a woman holding a sword in one hand and a newly-born baby in the other while a fierce harpie-hydra descends upon her. The individual constellations are 'Mother's Heart', 'Gleaming Blade', 'The Little Star', 'Mother's Belt', and 'Kaignus The Hunter'.   The Mourning Soul ( Gleaming Blade )

Souls of the Wyldcat's Dance



The Wyldcat's Dance megaconstellation contains the mythological figure of Wyldcat, a many-faced shapeshifting god that appears in many cultural tales across the continent as they traveled freely and dabbled where they chose. Wyldcat is dancing with a humanoid man and a centaurid woman. A fox plays a saynailar behind them ( a six-stringed instrument with percussive points along the sides, intended to be played by a creature with equally dexterous control of both 'hands' and feet).
