A torvian is a manifestation of [[Primordial]] [[Magic]] channeled through the hand of a person. It is sometimes referred to as dextromancy or the blood gift. Dextromancy is the absorbing of [[Aether]] into one’s hand and then channeling it. Dextromancers are unique in their powers and abilities. Sometimes, similar or the same dextromancy is passed down through [[Bloodlines]]. Powerful dextromancy [[Bloodlines]] are respected (and feared) in [[The Rings]]. Dextromancy always occurs in the non-dominant hand. A right handed person would have their dextromancy appear on their left hand and vice versa. This makes left-handed dextromancers highly prized. Their dextromancy hand, or their torvian, can be placed on a right-handed dextromancer’s dominant side. A torvian on a dextromancer’s dominant side is considerably more powerful. Malicious dextromancers usually like to hunt down left-handed Dextromancers and their right-handed torvians. Even individuals who do not cast magical spells can awaken torvians. Some of the greatest fighters ever in [[The Rings]] had torvians that matched their feared reputation. For this reason, many power individuals like to keep tabs on all members of powerful [[Bloodlines]], no matter their current power or prowess.
