'''Tejasia''' is a branch of | '''Tejasia''' is a branch of [[Osia]], focusing on the manipulation of the fire [[spirits]] tied to the [[primordial element]] of [[Tejas]]. Practitioners of this discipline, known as Tejasiari, harness the transformative energy of fire and heat, using it to shape both the physical and metaphysical aspects of the world. Fire in [[Adaris]] is more than a destructive force—it is a symbol of transformation, creation, and passion, and Tejasiari channel these forces to bring about change in all its forms. | ||

Tejasia revolves around the manipulation of [[Spirit|fire spirits]], conscious particles of energy that govern heat, light, and transformation. These spirits exist in all forms of fire, from the smallest spark to the most destructive inferno. Tejasiari attune their minds to the essence of fire, learning to command the flames, control their intensity, and harness their raw, transformative power. | |||
The fire spirits manipulated through Tejasia are the embodiment of change, passion, and dynamic energy.

Like all branches of | Like all branches of [[Osia]], Tejasia involves the manipulation of spirits at various stages of development. The spirits of fire, from the smallest flame to the largest inferno, exist in different forms, each representing a stage of [[consciousness]]. | ||
* | * [[Nascent Spirits]]: These are the simplest fire spirits, existing as small flames or bursts of heat. They are easily manipulated by Tejasiari and are often used for basic tasks like kindling fires or controlling small blazes. | ||
* | * [[Mature Spirits]]: Fire spirits that grow over time, embodying larger and more complex aspects of fire, such as the [[spirit]] of a forest fire or the hearth flame in a grand temple. These spirits are more difficult to control, as they have their own consciousness and purpose tied to their flames. | ||
* | * [[Ancestral Spirits]]: These ancient spirits of fire are the most powerful entities tied to the element of fire. They may represent the eternal flames of myth, volcanic spirits, or the cosmic fires that fuel the sun. Only the most skilled Tejasiari would attempt to commune with these beings, as they are capable of massive transformations, destruction, or creation on a grand scale. | ||

As their skills develop, they progress to working with larger and more complex fires, learning to summon flames for combat, creation, or transformation. | ||

These spirits are powerful and dangerous, requiring a deep understanding of fire’s consciousness and intent. Only the most advanced Tejasiari attempt to influence the [[Ancestral Spirits]] of fire, as these beings hold immense power over the world’s transformative forces. | Advanced Tejasiari train to communicate with the [[Mature Spirits]] of fire, such as the spirit of a forge or the flames that fuel a volcanic eruption.
