Shari
They consist in beings which bear both Shanla
and Halle descendance. For that reason, they are largely ignored by the
Shanla. In ancient Halle communities they were called upon as
guardians, protectors and teachers. Halle myth tells that for every
Halle, there is a Shari which is his (protector and guardian), and that
relation would be recognized immediately and would endure from there to
death.
The Shari may display
obvious powers, or those may have to be cultivated like in most Halle.
The Shanla may easily bring them through, but if their abilities have
not awakened and no transmission is made, their abilities will probably
evolve at the pace of any Halle. Commonly, the Shari are long-lived
naturally, usually exceeding the normal life span by a few decades,
although there are a few mentions in Halle legend of Shari living up to
200 years of age.
Shari are able
to turn time, due to the Shanla part of their heritage, but without
their restrictions. Ironically, shari may not send themselves through
the window they open.
When coming in contact with the
seer stone, its colors shift to display shades of green, usually mixing
with blue, and sometimes red, depending on the prevailing heritage of
the individual.
