Full Moons’ Aura
Both of Elema’s moons emit a strange, potent energy one that mirrors the flow of ley lines across the land. Where a leyline grows stronger the deeper it reaches into Elema’s core, the moons act as celestial ley points, radiating mana from their entire surface rather than from specific nodes.
The white moon, Leonardo, emits an energy akin to the Light and Spirit elements though it is not quite either. Its energy feels familiar yet foreign, as if from a higher tier of the same magical spectrum.
The blue moon, Odessa, radiates a blend of Water and Earth energy deep, slow, and resonant. Its influence is subtler, yet no less powerful.
These lunar energies rarely affect daily life except during a full moon. Under their full glow, the moons awaken ancient changes.
Leonardo’s light triggers lycanthropy, regardless of origin. No matter the curse’s source or the creature's bloodline, the full light of Leonardo stirs the beast within, transforming the afflicted into wild and often uncontrollable forms.
Odessa, by contrast, brings forth the lesser-known affliction of sylvathropy a strange transformation where sentient beings turn into living plant-creatures. As with lycanthropy, there are multiple known variations of this condition, each tied to a different flora-like form. Odessa’s power stirs the seed of this curse, blooming it into full effect.
These are the most well-known examples of how each full moon affects the world differently yet in strangely parallel ways.
Beyond curses, the moons also influence ritual magic and spellcasting. They can be drawn upon as direct sources of energy, especially during lunar peaks. The most iconic ritual to do so is Elun’Pulsara, a foundational spell that channels moonlight into stored energy or imbues objects with lunar-aligned enchantments.
Some plants only bloom beneath one moon or the other, while others react to both. Certain animals migrate, breed, or awaken based on the lunar cycle. In magical ecosystems, the moons' influence is woven into the very essence of cursed beasts, enchanted woods, and mystical rituals.
The power that flows from the moons is both beautiful and dangerous a radiant force that reveals wonders, awakens secrets, and sometimes, unleashes horrors.
So be wary of the full moons, for they do not just light the night sky… They transform the world below.
