The raksha inverts his Essence, turning his attention to his internal makeup. He enters his Viscera Universe, the waypoint space that forms the foundation for the daydream areas formed by ''Soul-Carving Artifice.'' It is constructed from his vital organs! Here, there is a sea of blood or bile; there, a mountain range of ribs! Tooth sharks and vertebra crabs lend the place a sense of fauna. Here, he may contend with his unshaped self. By simply invoking this Charm, the raksha may perform maintenance on the sanctum of his body, redefining the mode of his Glorious Hero Form mutation(s)to increase different Attributes. By defeating his unshaped mind in a shaping combat, he may achieve several accomplishments, which replace the normal effects of shaping victories:
 
* Ravishing the unshaped self allows the raksha to untangle one of his ravishments.
 
* Incumbering the unshaped self allows the raksha to lift away one of his burdens.
 
* Vexing the unshaped self allows the raksha to steal back some of his freedom of form, tearing away his mutations. He may dissolve a number of mutation points' worth of shape equal to the unshaped's Sword Trait.
 
The Storyteller and the player should work together to create an unshaped persona that reflects the raksha's inner nature, unburdened by form and name, but also presents him with a significant challenge to defeat.

<b>Viscera Universe Exploration</b> - what happens if the raksha <i>loses</i> the shaping contest with his unshaped self? Is it exactly the same as if he had lost a shaping contest outside his body? Better? Worse? - <i>curious</i> [[Moxiane]]
 
 
 
:I'm not clear on what happens if you lose a contest with an unshaped ''at all,'' so I didn't write up any rules for that. But, I assume that the comsequences are the same as for losing any other quest against the unshaped. - w
 
 
 
Heh; Viscera Universes!  I like the idea of questing inside yourself for an Unshaped, but I'm not sure that I'd describe it as thus.  I figure "Viscera Universe" should be one potential type of Unshaped Persona for your character, with tooth sharks and incisor knights as potential "personas" for your unshaped.  However, I figure a different Fair Folks inner self could manifest in a different way.  So I'd probably make this a little more general, while perhaps using the Viscera Universe as an example. - CrownedSun
 
 
 
:I do not disagree! I would derive different "inner world exploration" Charms from different mutations, however. This is the Glorious Hero Form exploration, the sanctum of the body. - w
