Revision as of 20:49, 6 September 2014

The Stones of the Immaculate Body are five hearthstones born of manses on the Blessed Isle, of equal power and each empowering its bearer with various immunities and resistances towards poisons and disease.

A number of legends and tales surround the five Stones. Some savants claim that the manses which birth them were shaped according to the will of Sextes Jylis and the designs of Pasiap, to protect Creation from the evils unleashed by the Anathema as their defeat drew near. Others speak that the five stones are merely pieces waiting to be assembled into a greater panacea that would grant their bearer ability to resist and reshape all toxins and all sickness she encountered. This belief drove a number of desperate Dragonblooded to battle during the dying days of the Shogunate, as they sought to seize control of the five Stones so they might save Creation... or perhaps merely themselves... from the horror of the Great Contagion.

The five Stones of the Immaculate Body are:

The Stone of Easy Breath (Air)

The Crystal Venom Jewel (Wood)

The Gem of Safe Harvest (Earth)

The Bloodstone (Water)

The Pyrexian Gem (Fire)
