📜 Description
The Soul Vessel is a red-haired humanoid of pale skin and medium build, first encountered by the party suspended in a cocoon within the depths of the Silver Canopy. Despite being physically trapped, it can project different egos — each with distinct personalities, memories, and capabilities — into the world. These egos take turns inhabiting and animating the body, though they may communicate internally or even manifest briefly under the right conditions.
The Soul Vessel is a magical and spiritual phenomenon, with each ego contributing unique skills, but all sharing a core set of magical abilities and equipment.
As of Session 53, the following egos have been encountered: Ryn, Ron, Ronin, Rime, Rain, and Ren.
