Within each person is a combination of these aspects. Three is the normal amount, but someone can also have five aspects. Chaos and Order are Passive aspects and do not have magical properties, but instead make up the fundamental body of demons and seraphs.
To utilize Aspect Energy or Piece Energy(Pieces), one must focus deep within themselves and draw out their internal energy. For an inexperienced user of magic, focusing can take roughly five minutes of meditation, while a trained individual can do it in seconds. Normally, someone is only able to use their main Piece/Aspect, as it is easily accessible through focusing, but with enough training, one is able to access the deeper seated aspects.
Example of Aspect Power use:
Larry was born with three aspects, Light, Life and Earth. Larry is only able to tap into the Light aspect. Focusing for a minute, Larry draws the energy within himself towards his eyes, allowing him to see in the dark while he works on fixing his home from a storm the night before.
Example of Aspect Power use in Combat:
Danny is training his use of the Heaven aspect in combat. He has already learned how to focus his energy in mere seconds, and can do it almost without thinking. Drawing the energy towards his feet, he thinks about Floating away or Soaring. Danny then jumps a solid five feet into the air, landing on the high ground, swiftly disarming his trainer.
Example of Heightened Aspect Power use in Combat:
Jackson is a well trained magical energy user. He has the ability to tap into the second well of energy within him, in tandem with the first. His aspects are Mind, Light and Earth. Jackson first activates the Mind aspect, heightening his internal processing, his reflexes and his memory. He then draws the Light aspect into his Mind as well, allowing him to have greater Perception of the world around him, as well as analyzing outside knowledge and information better. Fighting Jackson would be very difficult as he could read your movements in seconds, and know exactly what he needs to do to bring you down, before you even have a chance to strike.
Are there any Drawbacks to using Aspect/Piece Energy? Are there other ways to use Aspect/Piece energy?
Yes! I will explain the first question in the next post, and the second in another post.
