Konti gifts
From Mizahar Lore
A Konti gift is an ability each Konti has that is unique unto them while they journey through their Mizahar experience. Each Konti, due to the nature of the entire race living upon Mura and spending significant time there has been altered by their constant exposure to Vision Water. As a result, these Konti women are often born with 'gifts' that make each and every one of them a bit unique from one another. Even the Konti born and raised away from Mura will still have this trait due to the fact their bloodline is so tied to the island and has been exposed regardless. Konti who have lived generations off the island may very well lose their gifts. If outside Konti wander back to Mura and spend any length of time there, their gifts are reinforced by more exposure to the vision water that permeates everything they eat and drink on the island. Even non-Konti who dwell for years on Mura - especially the longer lived races like Akalak or Eths - can develop these gifts as well. The gifts never mimic a gnosis or magic, but instead often give Konti great insight into little things in their lives. The Konti claim that Avalis and Rak'Keli often gift them with abilities they most need in life. These abilities always come across as extra perception type gifts. For a current list and examples of Konti gifts, please see the list below.
Exporting vision water and regularly imbuing it will not grant a non-Konti a gift. The exposure simply isn't enough. Direct contact with Mura over years and generations is truly what is needed to acquire the gift.

 | Kavala | (10/24/09) Animal Empathy: Kavala feels what animals feel and if she is around specific individuals enough, she can pick up glimpses of their thinking. Her strider, for example, can flash pictures of carrots in her mind when Windsong wants a carrot from his mistress. It also helps make her an excellent animal healer because she can intensely feel where they hurt. If an animal is a kelvic, she can often feel their thoughts and if she's close enough sometimes they might seem like they are indeed her own. Kavala over the years has learned to separate out her own thoughts from theirs - but animals can still heavily influence her mood and feelings by what they project. |
