Revision as of 19:32, 8 December 2025
The native magic of the people of Karteria. It has been both described as "uncommon"[1] and that most "only [have] a marginal personal talent for it[2]". The main application in it's pure form seems to be in training animals or instructing them to complete simple tasks[1]. However, it's also combined with science and used to facilitate a lot of the technology within and without the cities, including the barrier, the network and ServiTons[1].
Events
October 2025
During the October Event, Calling was used on Carnivora-, Aves-, Arthropoda-, Ruminantia-, and Reptilia-types within the Patho-Gen facilities to test the predator/prey dynamic. Two characters were given an appetite stimulant and placed in a room, but should one be taken down by the other, Calling was used in an attempt to restrain them. It was most effective on those who had been in Karteria for longer.[3]
November 2025
Following this, in November, Calling was used by NPCs on PCs (especially Terra-, Golem-, Spectral-, and Carnivora-types) during the Salvation Parade, to force them to pick up and carry another Augmented[4].
