Starsoul

A starsoul is a heavily condensed fragment of yellow and black Chrono mixed with unknown technology. Starsouls themselves are monumentally powerful, and can be used to empower spells and innate abilities. There are only a limited number of starsouls in existence, and due to the time and method used in their creation, there simply isn't enough time to make more of them before Cosmott becomes completely Stilled.
Of the remaining living residents of Cosmott, a task force has been mustered, a ragtag crew of individuals known as the Kinetic whose sole mission is to consume starsouls to become Starborne-- traveling back in time in order to find a way to prevent the death of the universe.
==Creating a Starsoul==
Beyond a few small details, not much is known about the starsoul creation process. According to their inventor, Tgr, making a starsoul is a long and involved process. It requires mixing science with magic, though the exact details and ingredients of their creation are unknown to all but Tgr. Though others have pleaded with and even threatened him to share his knowledge, he has refused.
==Holding/Wearing a Starsoul==
When a starsoul is held or worn on one's person, it empowers the wearer, allowing them to more quickly accrue knowledge and power (ie gain experience and level up). A starsoul also has more specific effects that depend on the innate abilities of the holder. These empowerments depend on a character's speciality, whether magical or physical. If a character has both magical and physical prowess, only one empowerment can be active at a time, and the character chooses which empowerment to use at the beginning of the day as though preparing a spell.
If a character is primarily magical, wearing a starsoul grants them Chrono Empowerment. This form of empowerment boosts the user's mental abilities. Whenever a user of Chrono Empowerment makes any sort of roll involved with mental activity, they may roll twice and take the better result. This can be done a number of times per day equal to 2 + half their level, rounded down (minimum 1).
If a character is primarily physical, wearing a starsoul grants them Physical Empowerment. This form of empowerment boosts the user's athletic abilities. Whenever a user of Physical Empowerment makes any sort of roll involved with physical activity, they may roll twice and take the better result. This can be done a number of times per day equal to 2 + half their level, rounded down (minimum 1).
==Consuming a Starsoul==
Eating a starsoul causes one to become Starborne; however, the starsoul is destroyed in the process. Owing to the rarity of starsouls, and the result of ingestion, eating one is viewed as a last resort. The side-effects of ingesting a starsoul are unknown, as there has been no testing done with sentient creatures.
