Seidr

Seidr is the art of seeing the future. It's a double-edged sword, for seeing the future can invite the very dooms you're trying to avoid.

To have a vision of the future, godlings do the following:

• Inform a ref/Norn that you wish to have a vision, and on what topic.
• The Norn will inform you if this is a topic for which Major visions exist, or only Minor visions.
  • If only Minor visions are available, you may cast a rune of Insight to see one. The Norn will take you aside and privately narrate a vision.
• Otherwise, the Norn will retrieve a Major vision for you, which may either be a normal vision, or a Doomsaying.
• You may cast a Rune of Insight to receive a different vision after learning if you got a Doomsaying or not, if one is available.
• If it is a normal vision you may read the vision as long as you like, but cannot confer or make notes until you give it back. After that you may do what you wish with the information. That vision will then be destroyed; no one else will see it.
• If you receive a Doomsaying you must public declare that you have seen a Doomsaying, and read it to the room. You may then keep it. A Doomsaying will cause something bad to happen to do with the topic it is about; the enemies you'll face on the linear will be harder, or events will somehow unfold worse than they otherwise would have.

Major visions always exist for the next outing the godlings will make in to the world (until they've all been seen of course).
