Oracle Device

The Oracle Devices is a tool given to every being in order for them to use the Oracle System's functions. They exist to help the wearer to evolve.

## Inner-Working

For every wearer, the information given by the Oracle are always displayed in the most understandable way. A logical math-oriented person will see numbers or percentage, a younger child would read or hear simple words instead, like "Good" or "Very good". A baby would have a feeling instead of a value, but some functions would be locked to avoid him to fry his brain. Animals with low intelligence enter in the same category as human babies. Depending on their privileged way to communicate, it will use pictures, smells or intents to point out the right direction or solution to them. However, most animals will make very limited use of their Oracle.

The Oracle device merges with the wearer's body and mind, not just their arm. Part of the metal making up the bracelet circulates in their bloodstream like a symbiote. However, the alloy making up the bracelet is very special and a number of functions rely on this material. When the arm wearing the bracelet is severed, much of the metal making up the Oracle device is lost. The direct consequence is the deactivation of all functions requiring Aether and the loss of all the Aether stored inside the bracelet. Restoring its condition is no small task and carries a penalty.

 Logging
On the one hand, he could see the movie of his life from the present moment until the Oracle device had merged with his right arm to form a bracelet that could not be removed. On the other hand, the Oracle did a remarkable job of record-keeping on its own, like a master of archives.

### Guidance Function

 Shadow Guide
Sometimes a plan could be very complex, requiring very on point body language or facial expression. In these cases, just having a prediction with the steps to follow was not enough. A guide was needed.
It would perform each step of the Path perfectly. Of course, only the wearer could see the Shadow. It was like a ghost. If it was needed to make a specific grimace, a picture in the wearer's mind of the expression to adopt would be shown.
 Coaching
Coaching is the Oracle feature of Guidance that will lead the wearer to meaningful choices, allowing them to become a better version of themselve. If Prediction and Shadow Guide are wish-fulfilling abilities, which only exist to assist their will, Coaching has for purpose to help them to evolve further.
It will display in an understandable way the possible Rewards and Punishments normally following their decisions, should they perform them until the end. This way, it gives them a better understanding of your choices' implications.
However, that is only potential rewards or punishments. The wearer could badly perform or change their mind midway. Even when they are walking along a Path, the potential rewards displayed would only be under the assumption that they perfectly accomplish it. Otherwise, they would only obtain a fraction of the full Rewards or, if they completely failed, probably nothing but the Punishments.

### Aether Function

 Encode
 Aether Storage

Inside the bracelet, there is an Aether Core, not a hight-level one, but it was created by the Oracle System. The Aether Core in question was literally an energy point smaller than a particle of matter.
