=======The Blessed====== * In recent years, individuals have been born with a strange mark upon them. * This mark usually manifests in the shape of a circle, though the size, detail and location varies from bearer to bearer. * Not much was thought of this mark until, ten years ago, a young child with a terminal disease came back from death itself, fully revitalized in the peak of health. * From this moment on the child recovered from all physical ailments with remarkable speed. * She is known as Lyra the Blessed. * Lyra has already assembled a small cult of loyal followers around her. * Since then, hundreds of people are known to have returned from death. * They persist despite the manner in which they are killed, free from affliction as though they were born anew. * It is said that even the Blessed themselves do not know the extent to which their Blessing protects them. * It is unknown how many of the populace are Blessed. Pursuit of this information would be tantamount to collecting a Census, which, as we all know, is Treason. =====The Mark of the Blessed===== * All players have the mark of the Blessed upon them. * Whether or not they are open about this is up to them. * There is no requirement to physrep the mark, although it is encouraged. * The mark should include a circle of some form, though the rest of the design is up to you.
