Basic Terminology:

Auras: The synergetic presence manifests itself in the form of auras. Few life forms can make out the appearance of an aura and only in exchange for a sense. Auras can be manipulated to appear differently than as they truly are as well as leave imprints. If a significantly strong aura moves through a grassy meadow, a residue synergy is left behind to identify that something has at least been in the meadow. However, all auras are different. For example, an evil aura will have a much colder physical feeling than a typical one. And what makes an aura evil? Or good? Choice. Choices that come up day to day each effect not only personal Shwexli but also the surrounding peoples. This effect is dubbed “Leeching” or “Leaking”
·Leaking is the result of Leeching.

Leeching: When a strong aura is present, it affects the auras of those around it. It dampens or lightens the auras it comes in contact with, the effect differentiating on the type of aura it is and the strength of it.

Shwexli: The synergy that one finds in the World. Every material and immaterial aspect of life is linked with each other. Every blade of grass is connected to the next; connected to the sky; connected to the burrowing mouse. This kind of synergy that binds all living creations together can be manipulated. Shwexli manipulated or raw has no true form. No physical observations can be made on Shwexli; the only observations that can be made to recognize the presence of this synergy are the auras. Strong manifestations of synergetic forms leave imprints of vibrant presence, each aura being specifically different than the next.

Kobujutsu Shwexli: The capability of manipulating Shwexli into a combative force though only recently thoroughly explored, has in retrospect existed since the dawn of sentient life forms. As it surely has existed long before recorded time and though perhaps not truly defined, folktales and legends describe situations where the synergy has been altered and manipulated for violent use.

·Many descriptions apply to Kobujutsu Shwexli. An old saying goes The Sword is not a tool but an extension of life: Be one with the Sword. Of course, interpretation is everything. However, commonly accepted understanding is that the sword is merely a variable for weapon and that the weapon should not be treated as a tool as a means to achieve ends but come upon it as just another part of the body and soul and focus the synergy through it.

Application of Shwexli: The manipulation of the synergy enhances the manipulator in a choice way. The energy can be, for example, changed and focused to improve movement speed or jumping. Or it can be used to improve hearing. Or even sight. The applications of Shwexli are, in theory, limitless. As everything is connected, the possibility of doing anything exists. Whether or not it can be attained is another question.

Cultus: The darkness of Shwexli is different than the common sense where darkness is the absence of light. The darkness of Shwexli is not an absence of light. There is only the way Shwexli is applied that creates the darkness. Cultus appears when a being is not exactly removed from the synergetic life that normally exists but rather they are closed to it. The synergy becomes trapped and darkens. The aura that is perpetuated by this consumption of Shwexli (Leeching) creates a feeling to those of whom it is consuming in a variation of manners according to all those that have been touched, but none are positive.
Lost: As Cultus is the consumption of Shwexli and ends the naturally perpetual existence of it, the possibility of closing this consumption off and perpetual experience of Shwexli to a life form is theoretically possible. This would mean that the being would no longer feel Shwexli, notice its existence or emit an aura. Does that mean it exists then in regards to that individual? Lost Shwexli can be recognized, however. It is often referred to as a interruption in the synergetic existence.
