Opening the Soul
"Magic is your wings, your heart, your power, your fire - your crutch. Would you but cast it aside, you would see what a man could become, and how a soul can fly, untethered by the chains of arcane understanding. Come, wizard, your death awaits you."
- Belract the Untainted, Kryphaneon Forsaker
It is not uncommon, especially in Cobrin'Seil, for one forsworn of magic or indeed, simply of great stillness of soul to discover another source of power. Chakra are the result of time spent training, strengthening one's knowledge of one's own body, and truly developing oneself to a point of greater personal power.
All powers granted by Chakra are, unless otherwise stated, Supernatural abilities. A Chakra is made by spending time and XP on meditation and training.
Awakening a Chakra requires the feat, Awaken Chakra, and can be reduced in cost by the feat Great Stillness. Awakening a Chakra takes one day for every 200 XP in its XP cost, and otherwise follows all the same rules for item creation as other such feats.
The formula for working out your own Chakra is typically double the cost of the item it emulates, divided by 5.
