Kindred Branding

A kindred brand is a mark revealed at birth depicting which aspects of a divine source are innately connected to a child with at least one parent heralding from the realm of Nox-Vien. While the brands are often mistaken as a tattoo by members of other realms, the brandings are in fact a natural result of Nox-Vien’s helix aether. Descendents of the Erithian primes have their divinity take physical and artistic form on the inner side of their right forearms. While extensive study has been undertaken into understanding why such a manifestation exists or indeed, what its true nature and purpose is, the brands remain a critical component of Parlavian faith.

Parlavian faith dictates the existence of ten kindred brands; Ferrum, Allum, Target, Augur, Pallanteum, Orium, Mox, Ħuthim, Ӑiur, and Serentium. While Parlavian faith does include the outlying classifications such as Inkblots, a demographic with no innately displayed or realised divine source and Palaxium, a classification given to an Erithian prime or in the theoretical case where one retains both full humanity and full divinity.

Demographic splits for the prevalence of certain brands within the general populace can be found in the table below.
