Godcraft

'Godcraft' is a title coined by Selina Osiris that refers to the supernatural powers and immortality possessed by herself and Suri Yaktosh. Prior to meeting Selina, Suri referred to this in a number of simpler ways, such as magic, spells, miracles, healing, and blessing.

## Features

### Necklaces

Suri and Selina draw a supernatural energy from their respective necklaces, from which they can perform various powers, as well as eventually resurrect from upon death. Whenever a Godcraft rests—ideally through sleep—the energy stored in the necklace refills and lends its power to the user. It is possible for a Godcraft to perform without a necklace on, but they suffer tremendous consequences that can, at worst, lead to a bodily shutdown or even death from overexertion. The necklace serves an important function of mediating how much energy the user can take out. Without the necklace being worn, the user is free to, theoretically, burn all of their daily energy in one climatic move, but risk collapsing immediately after.

### Hall of Godcrafts

*“Written upon the whiteness of my wall are sacred Gothic words—the singular rule I must always follow to maintain my immortality and powers.” She folded her arms behind her back and recited, “‘Forever serve the King of Kings.’” ―Suri Yaktosh, Order of Yaktosh, Chapter 6*

*“It is the only thing written on this heavenly wall of mine—the one rule of the Godcraft…” she licked her lips and stated, “‘Forever serve the King of Kings.’” ―Selina Osiris, The Osiris Contract, Chapter 6*

Each Godcraft has access to an unknown world consisting only of a hallway. One side of the hallway features text in Crimean Gothic script, while the other wall features text in Egyptian hieroglyphics; both read '*Forever serve the King of Kings*' without additional context. Through the Godcraft necklace that both Suri and Selina possess, this mysterious realm can be accessed, and while here, their body will not be affected negatively or positively, such as weight loss or the healing of wounds.

If either person ever dies in the world of the living, they are forced into the Hall of Godcrafts, but will remain trapped there for three days, until after which, a door will again reveal itself and allow them to exit from the spot of their necklace in the world of living. In the case of Selina Osiris, who for much of her life has remained trapped inside of an Egyptian tomb, she chose to spend a major portion of her life inside the Hall of Godcrafts rather than in the world of living, where she would have been subjected to hunger and pain. The same can be said of Suri for the hundreds of years she was trapped in a well, but to a far lesser extent than Selina.

### Immortality

The Godcraft is immortal and so old that neither Selina nor Suri can recall their true purpose in life, or even when or where they were born. Both women, despite being potentially thousands of years old, maintain youthful appearances. Due to their ability to resurrect from the dead after three days, it is presumed by both that they are bound to live forever.

### Powers

The powers afforded to the Godcraft is seemingly broad, limited only by the creative muscle of the person, as well as the amount of energy needed to perform the ability. In the case of Suri, she has developed a small collection of Godcraft abilities that cater to healing the wounds of people simply through touching water and coating the wound with it. Selina has developed the ability to shoot flaming Egyptian images and text for the purpose of burning it into walls for ritual purposes. Due to the danger the flaming image imposes, Selina has also been known to use this as a weapon. Additionally, Selina has discovered how to materialize a khopesh sword purely out of Godcraft energy. Both women have learned how to self-heal their own afflictions.

## Source

Suri and Selina have conflicting explanations for the source of their Godcraft powers, both at least reaching their own conclusion that the text in the Hall of Godcrafts holds the answer.

Suri firmly believes that 'Forever serve the King of Kings' refers to the god, Baphomet, and that she is a Godcraft through her commitment to him. Even as a half-converted Christian, Suri continues to cautiously argue that if she were to forsake Baphomet, she would cease to be immortal.

Selina has a similar conviction, believing that 'Forever serve the King of Kings' refers to the pharaoh--or simply the master of Egypt. She, similarly, believes that failure to serve the interests of the pharaoh would mean an end to her immortality and other abilities.
