The twelve aspects of existence are the fundamental facets of creation that make up the Solitary Universe.
Emanant Aspect
Each soul of every living being in the Solitary Universe possesses an inherent attunement to a particular aspect - known as their emanant aspect - which influences their personality and general outlook on life to a certain degree. Through Alchemy, a person can learn to harness their aspect, exerting influence over their environment, themselves and others, though this requires many years of arduous study and practice.
Aspect Holders
The twelve trolls destined to play The Game have an innate link to the aspects of existence and, as such, are referred to as aspect holders. For aspect holders, an aspect is one half of the player titles, the other being the class.
