Aetas
Aetas is an Elemental Natural Aspect representing the Fiagia's presence and concept of both space and time. (Spacetime) The aspect is divided by two facets: space and time.
Due to its rarity, its Sylv value is rated at 1,000 yl
and Aspect Crystals of its aspect are rare to find, best found inside deep generated dungeons and Millennial Puzzles.
Sorcia made with Aetas is often paired with :vello: Vello.
Impact
Aetas is one of the most restrictive out of all aspects to the point that it could end up as a forbidden aspect, but plays a major part in the world of Furria that it cannot be removed, such as the presence of the Portia class, Path Reflectors, Arcspace, and Millenial Puzzles.
It also is the main influence for several symbolic and spiritual aspects:
:amplius: Amplius, :minuo: Minuo, :duplico: Duplico, :partio: Partio, :vario: Vario, :firmus: Firmus, :ambio: Ambio, :creo: Creo, :imagino: Imagino, and :victus: Victus.
Characteristics
The aspect is divided by two facets: space and time, which work indepenently from each other yet co-exists as one aspect.
Space
Time
Aetas as a facet of time works as time is usually percieved, an indefinitely continued sequence of existence and events. As such, time cannot be reversed or even stopped. Aetas as an aspect works in manipulating the process of time but is mostly restricted due to its nature.
Speed
As time moves forward, it cannot be stopped or reversed in any way, but can be slowed down or sped up.
For sorcia being cast, the amount of force used depends on the following:
- Speed adjusted, exponentially
- Slowest speed achievable is 25% of normal time
- Maximum of 5% with the assist of crystals
- Fastest speed achievable is 200% of normal time
- Maximum of 500% with the assist of crystals
- Duration
- Target / Area
Time manipluation is only applicable to sorcia cast by the user. It cannot be used through technology unless it is combined through the use of :victus: Victus as to sustain the state of a living being, but not slow down or speed up time.
However, combined with the aspect of :visio: Imagino, they can trick their targets of moving slower while the original target moves normally, creating a visual duplicate of themselves temporarily.
Checkpointing
With the combination of Firmus, the position of an area or target can be marked for later recovery.
As sorcia being cast, the amount of force used depends on the following:
- Duration from the checkpoint, exponentially
- Distance from the checkpoint
- Target / Area
A passive kind of sorcia can be used to commonly checkpoint themselves without the interaction of the user and only toggled. Using this method will decrease their gain of force from other actions while ensuring their position is kept updated.
If it's done through technology later to be used by the user, a lot of the cost of force is reduced from the user to revert to its state, also releasing the requirement of commonly checkpointing repeatedly.
Author Notes
- The existence of the rule of reversing and stopping time is considered to be too powerful to be used as it undoes any occurence of damage or event.
- The main reason for Victus is required in technology for time to slow down is so that no one can use it large scale in order to slow down or speed up the whole town.
- This also breaks the concept of having the same age for other typyl and ends up with age keeping up or leaving behind the rate of others unless they are in stais.
