Veil
Veil
Veil is a substance used by Wraiths to temporarily suppress their Frequency and reduce instability.
It is primarily produced by grinding Requiem Coral into a usable form and processing the resulting material.
The properties of Requiem Coral allow Veil to interfere with the effects of Requiem on a Wraith's Frequency, temporarily keeping it at a lower and more stable state.
Effects
Veil temporarily:
- Lowers a Wraith's Frequency
- Suppresses Frequency instability
- Reduces the likelihood of Skips
- Makes Requiem easier to control
- Allows Wraiths to remain stable for longer periods
Veil does not permanently repair Frequency instability.
The Wraith's body gradually processes the active compounds within Veil, causing its effects to weaken over time.
Limitations
Veil does not make high Frequency safe.
A Wraith can still force their Frequency upward while under the effects of Veil, but the substance only provides temporary stabilization.
Repeated reliance on Veil can therefore delay instability rather than eliminate its underlying cause.
Production
The primary ingredient of Veil is ground Requiem Coral.
The exact process used to transform Requiem Coral into stable Veil varies depending on the manufacturer.
Professional production can create a predictable and consistent product, while crude production can result in unstable effects.
