The Seventh
THE SEVENTH SOUL WAS BREATH, GURA-THE FIRST TRUE FLICKERING OF THE DJNN'S AWARENESS. THE DJNN'S CHESTS ROSE AND
FELL AND AS GURA ENTERED THEM, IT STIRRED IN THEM THE ABILITY TO THINK. IT TRAVELLED BETWEEN THE IAH'S ABYSS AND
JIA'S WARMTH, AND IT TAUGHT TO THEIR SLEEPING MINDS THE LANGUAGE OF THE GHER. WHEN THE DJNN AWOKE, IT WAS WITH
THAT FIRST BURST OF CLARITY. THERE WERE NAMES ON THEIR TONGUES, GIFTED TO THEM BY IAH, AND DELIVERED BY GURA. THEY
REJOICED
The Gura represent pure speed. They live life fast and wild, racing from one event to the next. These spirits are often, at their very core, a paradox - they yearn for what they cannot have, but fiercely fear the unknown. They are untameable and spirited; easily read and controlled. They are creative yet conforming, strong-willed yet quickly won over. The Gura runs warm and cold. These are the most honest of spirits.
The Gura have the power of incredible speed. Those that have this spirit type will have increased agility and far faster reaction times than the other spirits. The proficient will be able to track scents over further distances, as well as covering ground at twice the speed of others. The Gura are most powerful when caught up in moments of stress or uncertainty, and the more powerful they become, the more neurotic and restless they will be. They may grow hyperactive or may struggle to maintain focus, and often suffer from acute insomnia. At the height of their skills they are able to summon gale-like winds, or to slow time within their immediate surroundings. Over time, the Gura will become prone to debilitating migraine and intense shakiness.
