Rivic Theurgy

Rivic Theurgy is the divine art of wielding Rive, the energy of rupture, chaos, decay, and transformation. It is practiced by the Rivari.

In the lore

Rivic Theurgy is not evil by nature, it was meant to regulate the necessary chaos of the world. But in the hands of a corrupted Rivari, it becomes a weapon: the Fracture itself is an act of Rivic Theurgy, corrupting divine communication to farm mortal suffering for concentrated Rive.

In gameplay

TODO: If Rive-aligned abilities, corruption mechanics, or dark magic are player-facing, document them here. Otherwise keep this as a lore page.

Concentrated Rive corrupts. Any system that lets players touch it directly should carry a cost, that tension is core to the setting.
