Abilities

## **Myrkviðr Abilities**

*Abilities of the Myrkviðr are mysterious. Certain abilities are given to a Warg upon birth, others have gained a certain understanding or bond with their patron God and are blessed with an ability and some are left without a single thread of magic.*

Certain abilities have a restricted amount of characters that can possess them and must have Admin permission to apply them to a character.

Attempting to receive an Ability is done through submission of Literature or Art with a brief description of the situation.

### **Born Abilities**

***Only members of the Wilþijāz pack may possess this ability. Please speak to an Admin about possessing this ability.***

* Clairvoyance  0/4

Clairvoyance allows the blessed individual to perceive events in the future through vivid visions and dreams. These visions do not allow the individual to know the exact date of the occurrence. Visions can be anything from future deaths, wars, failures, victorys, births, warnings, good omens or bad omens ect.

Having Clairvoyance as an ability automatically ranks your character to Vörðr.

Vörðr are pack members who are similar to an Oracle, they are looked to for insight of future events, advice and questions for the Gods by the Reiðr and all other ranks.
