Essense

## Summary

On the world of Elethia, there exists an ethereal form of energy, unseen and without form. From the wind in the air to the creatures of the earth, and the nature that sustains it, it exists within all life, influencing sight, sound, motion, smell and even flavour.

This energy is collectively known as Essense, representing its place as one of the building blocks of all life. In most cases this simply influences people's ability to see, hear, touch, taste and smell. But for reasons still not fully understood, some are born with an inherent attunement to this energy, manifesting rare, often powerful and sometimes dangerous abilities.

Even if a creature isn't born with a special attunement to an Essense, it is possible for tap into them through years of exposure, learning and practise. As a result, many nations have heavily influenced by the Essenses that impacted their formative histories, informing everything from religious and scientific beliefs to social conventions and laws.

### The 5 Essenses

* Asmer (sound)
* Mirros (sight)
* Kinesis (touch)
* Savure (taste)
* Aruma (smell)

Marketed as a separate network for ratings purposes, Adult Swim currently broadcasts nightly from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. ET/PT.

Debuting in 2001, Adult Swim serves as the nighttime identity of Cartoon Network, and it was established as alternative programming during late night hours when Cartoon Network's primary target audience, children between the ages of 7 and 15, would normally be sleeping. In 2005, Adult Swim was granted its own Nielsen ratings report from Cartoon Network due to it targeting a separate demographic. The block features stylistically varied animated and live-action shows, including original programming, syndicated series, anime, original video animations, and short films with generally minimal or no editing for content.

Adult Swim has frequently aired adult animation features, mockumentaries, sketch comedy, and pilots. The block's shows are known for their sexual themes, frank sexual discussion, nudity, strong language, and graphic violence. Many of its programs are esthetically experimental, transgressive, improvised, and surrealist in nature. Adult Swim has contracted with various studios known for their productions in absurd and shock comedy.

As with Cartoon Network, Adult Swim's reach through various services totals 94 million American households.

The Canadian version of Adult Swim launched as a late-night programming block on Cartoon Network Canada on July 4, 2012; and as a standalone channel on April 1, 2019. Rick and Morty initially premiered on Adult Swim Canada on January 10, 2016.

Basic Rules

* The Sins come in like a Rainbow so, keep the color in mind when you create and decorate. Not EVERYTHING has to be that color, just make it stand out more ;)  If you don’t want to use a specific color, that’s fine. Personally, I like creating with a color in mind.
* They however do **LIKE** the color of their gen! Other Likes or Dislikes are up to you!
* Keep spouses as they are when they move in or when you move in with them. To make it extra fun, let spouses be a random townie or someone you don’t know the traits from and, since they aren’t a Sin, they don’t have to be like the rainbow.
* It’s *recommended* to have the Parenthood game pack but *not necessary.*
* As for cats and dogs, do as you please. You like cats? Get a cat. You like dogs? Get a dog. Like both?… Get both! Hate them? Just don’t kill them and let them be.
* Want to go to University? You can if you want unless it’s stated otherwise in the Gen rules!
* Since the start of the challenge has a background, it will make the most sense not to use any money cheats. If you desperately want more money…well, I can’t stop you.
* You can live anywhere you want and you may move whenever and as many times as you like. Just keep your eyes on the rules of every generation.
* The lifespan should be set on normal, and I recommend MC Command Center from DEADERPOOLMC.TUMBLR.COM to let the rest of the world feel alive.
* Lastly for any other mods, just keep in mind that you shouldn’t have an unfair advantage at this challenge over other players.
* If you see a rule that you can’t do because you don’t have the pack, first see if it has changed with the updates maybe you would be able to do the old version of it. OR just skip it… or just think of something that you think might fit!

**Preparation**

Begin with creating your first sin/founder **Wrath**. He/she is a **teen** (gen 1 traits) and represents the color red. Move him/her into an **empty house** (you may use Freerealestate on) and, once you’re moved, the bank account should not have more than 2000 in it. If you have more, you can use *SHIFT+CTRL+C* and type in *testingcheats true* press enter and then type in *money 2000* and you will have 2000 in your bank account. After that, type in *testingcheats false* press ESC and then the bar should be gone and you will be ready to start.
Gen 6: Pride Purple

> *“Why did your parents throw everything away that your grand and great grandparents built?! They should have been proud of what they had built.

## Summary

> *Originally hailing from the Thundering Mountains, Alight is Edge's long-serving Knight. While anyone would expect any Knight - aka the closest zealot - of King Edge to have a merciless personality, Alight has a ill-hidden nasty streak that even Edge has to reel in at times. To be fair, can you blame them? Because how is it that somebody as hopeless as Jasper got a pride before they did?* *While they are a good teacher to their Squire, Fade, Alight feels that the boy is only Squire because he needs a purpose until he is King. In short, they feel training him to be a Knight is a colossal waste of time. They know better than to voice these reservations to Edge himself, however.*

	+ Alabaster: *"A translucent form of gypsum or calcite, typically white, often carved into ornaments."*
* Originally known as Ablaze, their name was changed at the suggestion of an anon on the I Hope So Tumblr blog as it sounded closer to their original name of Alabaster.
