David: Added Attunement Images and a section for it.

{{Attunement

|mana2=Air
|mana3=Water
|location=Valia
|spire=Serpent Spire
}}
The '''Elementalist''' [[attunement]] is designed for offensive combat. Elementalists are known for using high-powered fire and lightning spells. The elementalist attunement grants the attuned access to [[fire mana]] and [[air mana]], along with their combination: [[lightning mana]]<ref name=aa2-r>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Recap - Attunements</ref>. At citrine, it grants access to [[Water mana]] and [[earth mana]], giving it four basic mana types, rather than the typical three<ref name=aa3-10>''The Torch that Ignites the Stars'' Chapter 10</ref>. The Elementalist attunement is most commonly found in the [[Serpent Spire]] in [[Valia]]<ref name=aa2-r />.

== Attunement Features ==

''Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.''

=== Shroud Charging ===

Once the attuned gains access to a shroud at carnelian, they gain the ability to charge their shroud with fire or lightning mana. This can have dramatic effects, such as melting bullets that approach them (in the case of fire), or deflecting magical projectiles and electrocuting anyone they touch (in the case of lighting)<ref name=aa2-11>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Chapter 11</ref>.

=== Auto Mixing ===

The Elementalist attunement helps the attuned by taking the burden of mixing fire and air together for lightning mana and does it automatically.

{{Attunement

}}
The '''Diviner''' [[attunement]] is designed for data gathering and storage. Diviners have at their disposal a variety of spells to locate and identify people or objects, detect magic, and even see at great distances. The diviner attunement grants the attuned access to [[mental mana]] and [[enhancement mana]], along with their combination: [[memory mana]]<ref name=aa2-r>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Recap - Attunements</ref>. At citrine, it grants access to [[water mana]].

Valian Diviners are often compared to Caelish [[analyst|analysts]] and Dalen [[seer|seers]], which are all related to information gathering. Diviners are more focused on the actual gathering and preserving of raw information, often by creating [[memory crystals]], while Analysts focus on processing data and seers focus on gathering more temporary information via scrying<ref name=aa1-11>''Sufficiently Advanced Magic'' Chapter 11</ref>.

The diviner attunement is most commonly found in the [[Serpent Spire]] in [[Valia]]<ref name=aa2-r />.

== Attunement Features ==

''Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.''

=== Aura Viewing ===

While this is technically a function of [[mental mana]], the diviner attunement allows the user to view the magical auras of things around them with much greater ease<ref name=aa1-9>''Sufficiently Advanced Magic'' Chapter 9</ref>.

=== Memory Crystals ===

Diviners are the only attunement able to create [[memory crystals]]<ref name=aa1-11/>. It is currently unknown whether this is a unique feature of the attunement or a normal function of [[memory mana]].

Arbiter

2025-09-02T01:29:03Z

David: Added Carnelian Arbiter Attunement and a section for it.

{{Attunement
|compound=Adaptation
|mana1=Transference
|mana2=Life
|mana3=Light
|location=Unknown
|spire=Spider Spire
}}The '''Arbiter''' [[attunement]] is a [[restricted attunement]] given by the [[Visage|Visages]] for performing a diplomatic task, typically of a political nature<ref name=aa2-2>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Chapter 2</ref>. The arbiter attunement provides [[transference mana]] and [[life mana]], along with their combination: [[adaptation mana]]. It also provides [[light mana]] at citrine.

== Political Importance ==

Because arbiter attunements are only given to those who have already performed a task for a visage, they are often selected by the visages to perform additional diplomatic tasks. Due to the possibility of this, they are granted certain liberties not granted to others. These include the ability to use information gathering spells in the [[Soaring Spires|spires]]. Additionally, [[spire elementals]] are bound to assist them, although summoned copies cannot directly disobey their summoner's orders<ref name=aa2-2 />.

Most arbiters are considered to be an arbiter of the visage who granted them the attunement, and while they work with all visages, they typically work with the one who granted their mark. Each visage typically has only one or two known arbiters.

== Attunement Features ==

''Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.''

=== Mana Purification and Transfer ===

The Arbiter attunement is capable of purifying the user's [[mana]], making it possible to safely transfer mana into another person<ref name=aa2-2 />. This effect also applies to mana generated by objects enchanted with pure mana, either by an arbiter who is also an enchanter or a regular enchanted item purified by an arbiter<ref name=aa2-8>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Chapter 8</ref>.

Because of this purification, an arbiter can recharge an attunement, including giving an attuned mana above their capacity, although giving them enough mana to more than double their capacity can cause mana scarring in the target, as can exceeding their maximum capacity more than once per week. This boost is not permanent, although it does provide a small permanent increase, typically about 2 percent of the previous total<ref name=aa2-2 />.

An additional consequence of the mana purification function is that arbiters cannot be tracked by their mana signature, since they do not have one. When attempting to track an arbiter's mana signature, detection spells are unable to differentiate between any arbiter or item with arbiter-purified mana<ref name=aa3-5>''The Torch that Ignites the Stars'' Chapter 5</ref>. This does not prevent tracking via other methods, such as spirit tracking.

=== Attunement Movement ===

Arbiters can move attunements from one location on an attuned's body to another location, such as moving an attunement from an arm to a leg. It is also possible to move an attunement from one attuned to another, although there are significant risks to that. When moving an attunement from one person to another, the person must be acclimated to mana in their bodies. An quartz-level attunement could safely be moved to an unattuned, but a citrine attunement could only be moved to another citrine level attuned. If this requirement is not met, the person who is being granted the attunement generally explodes<ref name=aa3-6>''The Torch that Ignites the Stars'' Chapter 6</ref>.

This process cannot be performed without the direct consent of the attuned due to safeguards built into attunements<ref name=aa3-6 />.

=== Attunement Decryption ===

''Note: This function is not available until the attunement reaches citrine level.''

Some attunement functions' [[attunement#subglyphs|subglyphs]] are encrypted, and impossible to read or change. At Citrine level, the arbiter attunement grants the ability to read this<ref name=aa3-23>''The Torch that Ignites the Stars'' Chapter 23</ref>.

=== Attunement Modification ===

If the arbiter has access to mental mana, it is possible to alter the subglyphs on existing attunements.

=== Arbiter's Gate Access ===

Arbiters are capable of charging a petitioner's coin and entering the [[Soaring Spires#Arbiter's_Gate|Arbiter's Gate]] in the soaring spires<ref name=aa3-6 />.

== Attunement Appearance ==

<gallery mode="packed" heights="150">
File:Arbiter-2.jpg|Carnelian
</gallery>

== Interactions with other attunements ==

=== Enchanter ===

Arbiters with an [[enchanter]] attunement are able to create enchantments with pure mana, allowing the creation of items that push mana into an attuned, such as mana regeneration items or [[mana batteries]]. At citrine, it is theoretically possible for an arbiter/enchanter to create an [[artificial attunement]] on their own<ref name=aa3-6 />.

== Notable Arbiters ==

* [[Warren Constantine]]
* [[Corin Cadence]]

== Trivia ==

* Corin Cadence has a patent pending for the subglyphs for the functions of the Arbiter attunement<ref name=aa3-5 />.
* Farren Labs would like an Arbiter in their employ. Presumably, this is because of their incredible value in modifying attunements, and simplifying the attunement creation process. However, ulterior motivates like stealing the unique functions of the Arbiter attunement are implied.

David: more detail on capabilities

{{Attunement

|mana2=Water
|mana3=Mental
|location=Dalenos
|spire=Tortoise Spire
}}
'''Champion''' is an attunement designed for enhancement, defensive buffs, and ice magic-based crowd control. The champion attunement grants the attuned access to [[enhancement mana]] and [[water mana]], along with their combination: [[ice mana]]. At citrine, it grants access to [[mental mana]]. The champion attunement is most commonly found in the [[Tortoise Spire]] in [[Dalenos]].

== Attunement Features ==

''Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.''

=== Ice Armor ===

The Champion is able to create ice armor to protect themself from attacks. This armor can also be placed over injuries to temporary stabilize the champion and last longer in combat.

=== Ice Terrain ===

The Champion can warp the terrain of the battlefield by coating it in ice to make it slick, create walls of ice, or form pillars of ice to stand on. This can act to both increase the Champion's mobility, as they may be used to skating on the ice, and inhibit the mobility of opponents who might slip or fall from the slick surface and cracks in the ice.

The '''Guardian''' [[attunement]] is a [[:Category:Shroud Attunement|shroud-based attunement]] designed for close-quarters combat, with a focus on defense. Guardians are known for using their shroud offensively, as well as having much finer control over it than most other attunements. The guardian attunement grants the attuned access to [[enhancement mana]] and [[life mana]], along with their combination: [[protection mana]]<ref name=aa2-r>''On the Shoulders of Titans'' Recap - Attunements</ref>, although many guardians disregard life mana, choosing to focus nearly entirely on enhancement mana<ref name=aa3-7>''The Torch that Ignites the Stars'' Chapter 7</ref>. It grants access to [[earth mana]]{{citation needed}} at Citrine, and potentially grants access to [[water mana]] at some point<ref name=aa1-13>''Sufficiently Advanced Magic'' Chapter 13</ref>.

The guardian attunement is most commonly found in the [[Serpent Spire]] in [[Valia]]<ref name=aa2-r />.

== Attunement Features ==

''Features that are a result of specific attunement functions, rather than the types of mana available to the attuned.''

=== Shroud Manipulation ===

Guardians gain access to their [[shroud]] immediately upon gaining their attunement, rather than at carnelian like most other attunements. Additionally, they are able to manipulate their shroud immediately upon gaining it, and with greater ease than other attuned<ref name=aa1-9>''Sufficiently Advanced Magic'' Chapter 9</ref>.

=== Additional Mana Type ===

Some experienced guardians have been seen using [[ice mana]], making it likely that the guardian has [[water mana]] as a additional mana type<ref name=aa1-13 />.
