Oracles are individuals born with Divine Magic in Hanaq, a power so thoroughly eradicated by the Coven that most dismiss them as myth. When an Oracle casts magic, it manifests as distinctive fractalizing patterns that induce fear in witnesses unaccustomed to the phenomenon.
Oracles possess unique reality-altering capabilities including:
All Oracles share an inexplicable connection to the Holy Land, compelling them to seek this mythical place.
Each Oracle bears a curse intrinsically tied to their powers. Initially appearing as faint fractal patterns when using abilities, the curse intensifies with continued use, bringing both benefits and consequences. At its peak, the curse significantly alters the Oracle's appearance and abilities, potentially causing them to lose control. The nature of each Oracle's curse reflects their specific powers.
The Coven, one of Esperanto's Three Pillars, actively hunts Oracles. Their systematic eradication has been so effective that knowledge of Divine Magic has largely vanished from public awareness, though new Coven initiates quickly learn the truth and pledge to continue this mission.
Some Oracles can learn to disguise their magic by darkening the fractal patterns, making them difficult for untrained observers to identify. Civrev learned this technique from Fortuna, a Ley Line entity. However, this method proves ineffective against Coven Siblings specifically trained to detect even subtle fractalization.
