Creature:Knobi/Powers With the Source

Use of The Source
The Nobi use the Source without even knowing what it is. They use it in an elemental form, with Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind as the main elements. Combining elements oftentimes leads to stronger uses for this power, but always takes more then one mage.


 * Wind + Water = Ice/Snow
 * Water + Earth = Mud
 * Earth + Wind = Dust
 * Fire + Earth = Lava
 * Fire + Wind = Lightning
 * Fire + Water = Dud

You can also combine combinations to create much more powerful things, but they are hard to control and take at least 6 mages to use. They aren't used often, and they don't always work well, but when they do the Nobi always remember it.


 * Lava + Dust + Lightning = Volcanic Ash
 * Ice + Lightning + Dust = Storm
 * Water + Wind + Lightning = Winter Storm
 * Lava + Ice = Explosion/Dud/Suicide Bomber (does not count as an actual use)

Seals
The Nobi have a number of strange ways in which they use the Source. Seals are by far the strangest. Each seal is unique, there will never be another identical to it. These seals can do certain things, determined the the one who wrote it. For example, the Seal at the Great Forge is built to hold and direct the fires of the Ironforge Supervolcano. That is what it does, it cannot do anything else. Each seal can do one thing, and only one thing. And each seal is unique to the job, you cannot make to identical seals, that has been proven many times by people trying to do just that. In order to create a seal, the one writing it must pour their entire being into the seal, their entire soul. Oftentimes, this kills the creator, though "Travis the Mad" was said to have created several in his life before disappearing, proving that it is not required that you die to create a seal. Theories on this are that those who cannot put their entire soul into the seal are killed when they cannot pay it's preferred price.

Some notable seals are:
 * The Seal at Ironforge, created by "Travis the Mad"
 * Ironforge itself, which is said to be built as an ever changing seal of defense, made and designed by "Travis the Mad"
 * "Grand Design", which is assumed to be a seal of some sort created by "Travis the Mad"
 * The Seal of FireIce, created by Pait, a young warrior from the past. She was said to be exceptionally powerful with seals, and skilled at the use of the sword as well.
 * Seal in Fali. Fali is a small town off the the east of the main highlands. It contains the Seal in Fali, which has never been touched, not since it was placed. It's creator is unknown, but since "Travis the Mad" speaks of it with reverence in his writings we can only assume that it is powerful or important, and do not wish to alter or damage it.
