Soulcrafting

Soulcrafting is the primary magic system of The Weirkey Chronicles. Much information is still unknown about it, but this page exists to organize tier information that has been gleaned from the text. There is no official guide so far, but extra details and lore can be found in the separate Soulcrafting Tutorials. Each stage of advancement increases cantae potency and allows the soulcrafter to build a floor higher.

Basics: Soulcrafters need to acquire sublime materials, draw them into their souls, and then use them to construct soulhomes that are essentially pocket dimensions. Depending on what they create in their souls, they can gain many different traits and abilities. Cantae is energy generated by sublime materials and stored within the soul. The more rooms in a soulhome, the more cantae they can store. There are different types of rooms inside a soulhome, some rooms provide passive benefits and others grant the use of abilities relating to the sublime material.



Soulcrafter Tiers:
 * Tier 0 = Foundation: Ordinary people (from any world) can't use cantae. Becoming a soulcrafter isn't particularly difficult, but it doesn't grant any real advantages before you soulcraft anything.


 * Tier 1 = Soulcrafter: All those capable of using sublime materials to enhance themselves. A common rank.


 * Tier 2 = Archcrafter: Powerful soulcrafters capable of building their soulhomes to two levels. Archcrafters have expanded foundations meaning that many Archcrafter's construct shielding walls.


 * Tier 3 = Ruler: The first major peak of power. There is a significant gap between this tier and the next.


 * Tier 4 = Authority: Soulcrafters of this tier are far more powerful than all previous. Authorities can user Weirkeys to travel. All Authorities can fly with raw cantae manipulations.


 * Tier 5 = Stronghold: This was the highest rank Theo achieved during his previous life. Strongholds can work the soil of their soulhome.


 * Tier 6 = Dominion: Referenced as the highest known rank. Achieved by Magnafor during his first life. Dominions can bring other people into their soulhome.


 * Tier 7+: There is no information about higher tiers, but Theo believes that Dominion isn't the height of power. This is confirmed by Senka who explains that their are 9 tiers.
