Practice-based Ability Genning
Practice-based Ability Genning
Happy New Year! and hello to a new genning thread. This time the theme is set in the world of Pact and Pale. Magic spells, rituals, items, locations, beings, and other ideas are welcome for this month's gen thread. This is the one I'm expecting to be the easiest to gen for now that there's so much material to go off on.
The goal of these gen threads is to have fun coming up with interesting ideas that could belong in this setting. Really though, the magic system is so broad and intricate that just about most things could be argued to be replicable in Pact and Pale under different labels.
Jangle, the ringing metal Constituent, takes the appearance of an shaky elderly man with hands over their ears and a chained bell by his feet. By striking the bell, Jangle can cause metal surfaces to ring with sound. This ringing is awful enough to leave people who hear it disoriented and nauseous. Listening for long enough can leave victims with a permanent ringing in their ears.
