Soul Canvas

The innermost plane of existence within every human. It is the foundation of the soul, where Origin Energy is stored, shaped, and awakened. When a sorcerer first awakens, they step into their Soul Canvas— an inner realm.

It is within this Canvas that a sorcerer's connection to a Constellation is engraved, and where their Origin Energy can be refined, compressed, and expanded. The strength and clarity of one's Soul Canvas determines how much power they can draw from their Avatar and constellation.
