Pulse

== Overview ==
Pulse is an amorphous extra type of energy beyond the physical plane itself, resting and circulating through every living organism in Reality. It can be gained, lost, used, stolen, and regenerated. Many of the finer details, and the origin of this energy is incredibly difficult to understand, but it is assumed that the Pulse of Soly is irregular in some way, seeing as how the Emrites - and their first scholars - never once even hinted to the energy being noticeable, let alone applicable as it is in more recent times.
Through various focuses, meditations, and practice, one can muster Pulse into physical bursts of energy. While Pulses like Roasche, Teyrict and Renewal are incredibly common throughout greater society, many have been lost through the ages, or lie with exceptional practitioners of the energy.
Spoilers:
In order for one to physically use a Pulse, there are only two requirements to be met.
* First, you must know the name of the Pulse you want to use, and think or speak that name clearly when using it.
* Second, you must know what the Pulse looks like, having personally watched it used at least once.
Seeing the Pulse and speaking its name simultaneously will allow most adept practitioners of Pulse to use it without much hassle, and thus the reason why Pulsekaw are so protective of their names, as their names are the names of their Pulse as well. When a Pulse is used externally by any but themselves, the Pulsekaw are subjected to an unbelievable amount of pain, and a shortened lifespan. It is presumed that a Pulse Torch associated with the Pulse still feels the pain when used, thus true release inside the Calamity Tree is sought after.
== Types of Pulse ==
While Pulse itself is simply the energy needed to perform such things, Pulse that can be shaped and used in bursts of raw energy can be separated into five main categories.
# Common Pulse (A Pulse that is widely known and used by even commoners.)
# Secret Pulse (A Pulse known only to the user.)
# Lost Pulse (Pulses that have been lost to the Calamity Tree and broken down into Soly's core. All prior effects of these Pulses are undone.)
# Dim Pulse (Pulses that were once known by at least a few users, but not widely known or used. Many within the Torch Fields are Dim Pulse.)
# King Pulse (A Pulse that was known to all, but never able to be used beyond its original user.)
