Artanguis

Artanguis (pronounced: art AANG gwiss) is the name for super human abilities, carried by all humans since The Awakening. Each human has only one core ability unique to their bloodline, however, some can be utilised or manifest in different ways. While every human has an ability within them, not all are able to manifest them. Typically, an artanguis develops at puberty, however, some people have shown signs of their abilities from a much younger age, though this is rare.

Most artanguis users find that their abilities closely or exactly match those of others in their family bloodline. For this reason, multi-generational artanguis users are said to be stronger than families or individuals which are new to artanguis abilities. For example, a 3rd generation artanguis user will be able to benefit from the advice and experience of both his parent and grandparent, whereas a 1st generation user will only be able to rely on himself and his own experiences.

Once a Gādo has learned to harness their artellum (element skill), this can be combined with their artanguis to create even further variations of their skills with even more powerful capabilities.
