In The Thirst Trap, charms are made during a ritual. Sometimes, if the ritual is done multiple times. Mshauri may offer a gift. It's called a Bahati Charm. Bahati charms are sometimes made from resting souls that leave a little help.
Angry souls are made into Kutoka. These are small cursed coins.
Mshauri is the one that takes care of charms and bodies. Unlike Harry Potter.
Mshauri molds the soul while charms not made by him require a Gate Ritual.
During a Gate Ritual, it requires a set of items called Locks. Let's say you need to make a broom.
With gate rituals, if you want a broom. You need something to summon the broom. Like a coin, 'I'm carrying pennies' is the term.
Most charms look like a dime or penny.
You make offerings during a ritual, while Mshauri is a natural crafter. Similar to game mechanics like persona
I need X to get X but for vampires, you want to take ownership of that thing you need. So, you add a drop of blood.
Why does it have to be bound to me? It's like selling and buying.
Mshauri is legal
Gate Ritual is illegal but ain't nobody about to call Mshauri to make shit every day. It's DIY charms, most are really shitty. You can make a back offer and wind up with a Shaji.
Shaji knives are fucking horrible. Make a bad offering, Shaji knives cut you… soul wise. Where does that piece go? Some make Devil Things. It's super nice and bad, you have your doppelganger walking around. Shaji knives control the doppelganger, Ko-Se.
Ko-Se's can last a long time. But it's just a shadow, where's the harm? Shaji knives slurp shit they kill.
It has the ability of Mshauri, so you have a doppelganger of you, but if that Ko-Se kills somebody else. It has two appearances. Another name for Ko-Se is Uso-ro.
The more appearances, the longer the sword. The longest sword was 36ft, its holder was a Cherubim, Padanyiel.
He fell as 7'6ft man. His bones were taken by Gabriel upon his fall. It's assumed he ate him.
