Oracle's Gift

The Oracle gave a great sacrifice to the City and its Citizens. In accordance, we will be granting arts and plateaus that one would learn from orbit 0 to orbit 35, without a quest and without repercussions. Only those arts on the list below will be honored. Also, as a reminder, the first two spheres do not fall under the banner of this new questing. You will still need determine if the student possesses the knowledge that is needed for that sphere. You can call it an interview, a debate, a discussion, a field trip, a tea party or what ever else you wish. If they do not have such knowledge, educate them. However, having said that, keep in mind that when the student gets to orbit 39 and they are not prepared for the task ahead of them, you will have done them a terrible disservice. This obligation is now on your shoulders.

Oracle's Gift

Oracle's Gift

Dreamers will be gifted the following arts up to their 3rd plateau after an Oracle’s Lesson directed by the Teacher. (Starting from art level 39, quests are required for improvement to level 40 and above).

An Oracle’s Lesson is defined as a verbal lesson that includes explaining what these arts do, how they change within the three levels and any other learning that the Teacher deems important or necessary. If the student agrees, a written Quest may be given instead, to be reported as soon as it is complete.

The Orbit shown is when the Art is learnable. In the case of Corrupt Essence, Soulmasters can learn the art at Orbit 10, whereas other Foci learn it at Orbit 30.

Every Quest codex for an Oracle’s Gift granted MUST include a detailed summary of the Oracle Lesson provided to the student.

• Remember that minor focus arts for non-focus students (ie: Corrupt Essence for a Fatesender) max at 29 except in the case of secondary focus arts.

• Any Art NOT listed below requires a Quest to learn and plateau. They are not, or are no longer, included in the Oracle’s Gift.

Dreamsoul & Minor Focus Arts

The following is a list of Dreamsoul and Minor Focus arts that will auto-plateau and no longer require a teacher to raise. As you gain spheres these arts will automatically plateau to that level. These arts are also not bound by the minor art maximum rule. For example, Meditation will automatically plateau up to 90 even if you are a Dreamseer. Sense Datoken will automatically plateau up to 90 even if you are a Fatesender. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask a member of the Elder’s Council.
