The Wisps

The Wisps have been written to be habronders of ill omens, bringing forth disasters in their wake. There isn’t much research on their actual abilities but it does seem to be a consistent thread that their abilities have less to do with manifestation and more with perception. The are the Clans of Judgement who are famous for capturing Wisps and using them to identify which ways ‘the Scales of Fortune will Tilt,’ as accordance with The Judgement Memories. There have been witnessed accounts of Wisps being created during the screams of Banshees. As speculative lore suggests, they harbor a Banshee's resentment and hatred towards the world. This coupled with the fact that they tend to gravitate towards areas of disasters or the ill fated, have long since been documented to be representation of bad luck.

Basic Information

Anatomy

Incorporeal beings that often appear as small, loosely strung strings of light. Hues of colors vary and no particular research has made any on the purpose of this variety.

Growth Rate & Stages

They don't seem to grow in any known sense after their creation, regardless of their lifespans. Some have reported to unravel and rarely reform, after a few generations pass.

Ecology and Habitats

Are often found in prelude to disasters or floating around in war-torn locations or disasters areas. Some have even reported seeing them in other types of terrain with no clear link to past disasters and no further reports of such activity.

Additional Information

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

They are able to sense natural anomalies in the Weave and strain in the Natural World, similar to many other attuned creature. Their difference comes into effect with their ability to sense sentient made tragedy. Not much research has been made in this ability.
Conservation Status
There isn’t any specific Resident Law about the status of the Wisp. They are difficult to dismantle but aren’t manifested often either. Given their lack of creating any actual danger, they are considered harmless and handling is left to personal discretion.
