Soulfire is a form of condensed Vital aura associated with the Lord Level of the Sacred Arts on Cradle.[1]
Creation
Soulfire is woven from vital aura, mainly by Underlords and higher; the ability to do so is considered the hallmark of a Lord.[2] Those at the peak of Truegold begin gaining the ability to weave soulfire and must learn to control it as part of the process of advancing to Underlord.[3] Once woven, soulfire can be stored in a sacred artist's spirit for later use.[4]
Natural treasures can be burned to fuel the creation of soulfire, as long as the types of aura they produce are in sufficient balance.[5][6][7]
Properties and uses
When physically manifested without being specifically directed, soulfire takes the form of a spherical flame. The soulfire of Underlords appears diffuse and colorless; the soulfire of Overlords and Archlords appears progressively denser, brighter, and more silvery.[8][9][7]
Soulfire can be used as a power source in a wide variety of ways, including developing Riverseeds,[4] powering scripts,[10][2], and strengthening madra techniques.[11][12] Mundane physical objects can be washed in soulfire, which makes them far stronger and allows them to conduct madra and aura.[13] Completing the advancement from Truegold to Underlord causes soulfire to flow throughout a sacred artist's body and spirit, granting enormously increased power and durability.[14][15][16][6][17]
Soulfire grants some amount of control over any form of aura, allowing for minor manipulation of the physical world, though the control is far weaker than any proper Ruler technique and essentially useless in battle.[5] For example, sacred artists with enough power and control can use soulfire control over wind aura to fly as if they were wind artists.[18][19]
The addition of soulfire is the final step in creating ghostwater.[20]
