Selyn Consumption (Term)

The Sime's metabolism consuming selyn.  
In contrast, Gens metabolism consumes colories.
There is a basal selyn consumption rate that is an ideosyncratic property of each individual Sime.  Activity of any kind raises the rate, and augmentation (to move faster, or exert more strength) raises the consumption rate in steps.  Thus we have terms such as 5th level augmentation.
