Vos

Soul Manipulation
"Vos" means "Soul" in the ancient language of Ryune. It is thought that all sentient life has some degree of "vos" energy th\at can be detected, manipulated and transferred. The act of an individual conciously interacting with soul-energy is known as: "Voswana" and the mastery of said art is "Voskoga".

Training
There is no formal training to acquire "vos", only guidance through scriptures. Vos awareness and Voswana is aquired through observation and reflection of certain events. The truth of Vos is that which is ineffable but can only be realised on a spiritual level by observing birth and excessive death and meditating on the observations. Unlike Gon and Razu, not everybody has the potential for Vos although it is currently unknown how to identify those with the potential for it.

The lens of life
With a basic level of Voswana, one gains the awareness of life-force. This can be used to detect sentient beings via their Vos energy even if they are concealed from all directions. This ability, when fine-tuned at more advanced levels will also inform the user of the observed's personality, intentions and their rough level of soul-energy relative to those in the field of detection. Even though there is no direct cause and effect relationship between soul-energy levels and combat prowess, there appears to be a strong correlation between both variables. Despite being arguably one of the most powerful sensory abilities within the sacred path, this ability does have weaknesses in that it cannot detect reanimated or non-sentient creatures. Furthurmore, an experienced Vos user can mask their prescence to counteract this ability. However, the main weakness is that, when activated, the user loses sight of all non-sentient things in their immeidate vicinity, seeing only a spectrum of colours that represent the various souls around them.

Soul Transferral
One of the most advanced Vos techniques involves the ability to move souls from one body to another; including one's own soul. Using this ability, one can take the souls of the living or the recently deceased and store them in their own body, extending their own lifespan. Combined with magic, understanding of Vos can also allow the user to transfer soul energy into corpses in order to use necromancy techniques. They can reanimate undead creatures to fight for them. They can also manipulate the "aliveness" of things and transfer life "time" from one entity to another of the same type.
