- Feast/Holy Day Arts/Techniques
- Festival/Festivity Arts/Techniques
- Holiday Techniques
Capabilities[]
The user can utilize the Holiday Arts, a specialized system of techniques based around festive power. Holidays are unique times dedicated to national, religious and/or societal observances. Traditionally, they concern the honoring of certain figures or practices or great celebrations for momentous events, bountiful acquisitions or relief from daily existence. Contemporary life often has these occasions as times of rest and vacation; however, whether religious or secular, they still tend to involve certain characters and traditions idiosyncratic to said festivals. They carry great meaning to the culture and/or country that hosts them. That meaning can manifest as supernatural might that, when properly utilized, can allow one to wield unique capabilities.
There are various ways to tap the power of the holidays. Some feats are done by patron saints, folkloric heroes or symbolic entities who embody festivities. For ordinary people, one could engage in thematic endeavors like sacrifices or parties related to said event. One could attempt to channel the innate essence of the time period. There are even cases where the holiday mascots are tapped, creating connections to their power. Whether as the embodied figures or as supernatural practitioners, individuals can accomplish deeds ranging from manipulating emotions to creating entertainment to changing aspects of reality.
