Illuminations -- Noun Classes

 This is a Grammar entry.

The Illuminations are a three Levels statistics, also with knowledge in each of them.

The Levels work as 1. Manipulation, 2. Creation, and 3. Destruction. It's considered that to destroy something is more difficult than creating it.

We use this as the Noun Classes for the Akkia language, grouping everything that may exist or not.

It's also the working of Magic, and we get Ready Effects using them as measure.

Knowledge on them work just like any other statistics, we Test them with a 2d10 less, against a Roof number.

Roof number varies from -5 to 52, and Difficulty ranges from -5 to 35, with 18 to be Failure.

We don't use the Zero on the die as "ten", and two numbers Zero is the Absolute Success, but 1 is also a Common Success in a range of 1. Ranges vary, but the Master is to be set which the Range is -- that is, if the Range is 2, then a result of Zero, 1 or 2 are Successes.

Also, Knowledge on them indicates you are able to perform Ready Effects properly.

I hope you understand we are dealing with Magic to deal with Nouns here.

Ignoring the statistics shown, these are Areas of Knowledge in which the Akkia Nouns are grouped, and there are particles and endings usually seen used with the Nouns of these Classes.

Now let's see the most used Verbs used with these Noun Classes.

Note: "de" and "òg" are not Verbs, but a Particle and a Verb Ending.

Then, we see a related Ending.

Atara –– (de) aru, kytter –– tar

Ala –– edda, hammah, kannta/tla –– la

Itleyt, Formulae –– kytter –– yt

Matter –– edda, kytter –– ter

Hamt –– hammah, edda, oyata (da), okewa –– ah, ata, wa

Imah, Fýrkasttum, Taika –– Taikksi –– ahoa, atta –– mah, (k)ksi, (t)tum

Trappe –– sureah –– eah, (p)pe

Ihammenttum (Iha, Ku) –– illék, akuta –– (mm/l)ék, ku(h)

Go –– agoa –– go

This gives our mind food for thought.

Every Word possible can be related to one of these Noun Classes. And the possible combinations of the three Levels – a rule from Alchemy, properly used here – with one or more Illumination (s) draw a line between worlds.

We are still studying them, more than ten years later.

Noun Classes goes with certain Adpositions.

They're used to generate several words.

Don't forget we are studying the wizarding language to play the game Enigma, and please consider these Classes are enigmas so you can study them the right way.

I hope you're enjoying the reading.

Stay Plugged.
