Presence

Presence is a part of everything which exist and has a sense of identity; Presence to some may be considered the same as anima, soul, or spirit, but regardless of name or ideo logy, Presence is the part of a real thing which exist and know they exist.

Presence is within all things from Reality with a sense of personal identity and consciousness. Anything which exists needs Presence to keep existing.

Normally Presence is an innate part of any sentient being created as a byproduct from knowing things knowing they exist;

as a byproduct of all sentient things simply through knowing they exist; Outside of Reality, however, Presence is less easy to come by.

Within Unreality, Presence can only come from reality, and once outside of reality it is no longer naturally produced. When a person slips through into Unreality, they bring with them their Presence, but once outside of existence, they are no longer able to create more.

Loss of Presence

If something loses Presence, they have lost what it means to exist. They have lost their grasp on (existing) which is already so difficult to maintain while outside ofo relaity. For beings which lose Presence -- or have it ripped from them -- they begin to Fade Away. The less Presence a being has, the more they begin to fade...and the weaker the innate Presence a person has, the less ability they have to keep hold of what Presence they still have. Presence is naturally drawn out of a person while in Unreality, and because of this a person who is weak or holds a limited sense of identity is in danger.

Non Sapient creatures are at most risk while in Unreality. While they normally hold a limited amount of Presnce in relaity, outside of it it begins to diminish fast. Animals and creatures which may only

Objects with Presence

Items and objects without a sense of identity may also hold small amounts of Presence which were obtained through interacting with creatures which create it.

Presence can also be found in innanimate objects as a byproduct of simply having existed around things with an identity -- the more interaction and attention an object

Presence exists in all things from reality with a sense of self, and is gathered up naturally within an individual simply through existing in a real place. aw

Normally, in a place which exists, Presence is an innate part of all things; It is abundant, easily created and naturally occurring as a byproduct of existing. For anything to exist, it needs Presence to ground itself

In a place that isn't real, Presence is far less abundant. Within Unreality, Presence can only ever come from Reality -- slipping through along with the people who do

Presence is an an intangible concept, though from Presence all strength and skill come.

Sometimes called soul, anima, or spirit, Presence represents a characters strength of self as it persists within Unreality. All things with a sense of self and identity hold Presence naturally, gathered as they existed in reality and fostered simply through existing in a real place.

Because beings of Presence were never meant to exist ac

Presence cannot be manually created, and only ever comes from Reality. Because of this, there is a finite amount of Presence which can be found outside of reality. This amount is dependant on those whoo find their way into Unreality, and those who fade away and leave theirs behind.

Gathering more Presence

When a person Fades Away, their Presence is dragged free of their self. It scatters freely across the landcape of Unreality -- bare threads of stray Presence aimlessly spread about until it finally dissipates into nothing. The default state of Unreality is absolute nothing, and this unbound Presence will eventually join this state of nnothing, vanishing away over time. Occasionally, stray threads of Presence find their way into other things -- twisting and changing lost objects scattered across the lanscape of Unreality; This creates Oddments, their strength and what Boons or Hinderences they offer a person dependant on what Presence it absorbed.

When a person beigns to ground themselves in Unreality, they find th
