The thirty-one Currents
How elements move through ecology, culture, skills, and combat.
Air through Wood: the recovered elemental catalog is the canonical map of forces in Fens. Scholars call them Currents because none stays confined to a single creature or place.
No moral types
No Current is inherently good or evil. Light can become judgment without mercy; Decay creates room for new life; Blood carries ancestry; Void can erase pain as readily as memory.
Expression
Species define probable affinity ranges. Habitat, weather, equipment, training, and bond can alter how an individual expresses them without rewriting that individual’s identity.
The living network
Each Current affects more than battle. It informs careers, crafting, travel events, medicine, regional cultures, and creature behavior.
