	~~===~~Path of the Scholar~~===~~		[[Path of the Scholar]]
	Philosophy:The Path of the Scholar revolves around the idea that knowledge, especially in the fields of necromancy, thaumaturgy, or other arcane disciplines, is the ultimate source of power and must be protected at all costs. Scholars of this path are ravenous seekers of knowledge but also zealous in guarding it from the unworthy. They view their studies as sacred, believing that through the mastery of these arts, they can unlock the deepest mysteries of life, death, and existence. <br>
	~~'''Virtue: Knowledge'''~~
	~~====Ethics of the Path====~~
	* 1 Seek Forbidden Knowledge: Constantly strive to uncover new arcane secrets, especially in the fields of necromancy, thaumaturgy, or other occult disciplines.
	* 2 Guard the Secrets of the Arcane: Never share occult knowledge with those who are not worthy or capable of understanding its true power. Knowledge should only be shared if the other party offers equally valuable information.
	* 3 Protect the Traditions: The rituals, texts, and practices of necromancy or thaumaturgy are sacred. These must be preserved and passed down to those who prove their worth.
	* 4 Never Cease Learning: Knowledge is infinite, and the journey to enlightenment through necromancy and thaumaturgy never ends. Constant study and improvement are essential.
	* 5 Power through Magic: The ultimate source of strength and enlightenment lies in the mastery of arcane disciplines. Magic should be practiced with discipline and precision.
	* 6 Preserve the Balance: Use magic responsibly. Understanding that there are consequences for reckless use of necromantic or thaumaturgical powers is crucial.
	~~====Hierarchy of Sins====~~
	* 1. Deliberately ignoring or rejecting an opportunity to study an arcane mystery or artifact.
	* 2. Allowing a ritual or occult practice to fall into the hands of the unworthy or incapable.
	* 3. Destroying or losing vital necromantic or thaumaturgical texts, relics, or knowledge.
	* 4. Failing to document new occult discoveries or insights.
	* 5. Sharing magical secrets with those who lack the wisdom or experience to wield them responsibly.
	* 6. Failing to experiment or refine one's magical practices, leading to stagnation.
	* 7. Using necromancy or thaumaturgy for trivial or unworthy purposes.
	* 8. Allowing one's magical rituals or artifacts to be destroyed or corrupted.
	* 9. Neglecting the study of important arcane disciplines, focusing instead on mundane or insignificant topics.
	* 10. Accidentally revealing a minor occult secret to the unworthy. Rituals

			===Path of the Blood Alchemist===
			Philosophy: The Path of the Blood Alchemist revolves around the belief that blood is the ultimate source of power, knowledge, and enlightenment. Kiasyd following this path see the consumption, manipulation, and transformation of
			blood into various alchemical forms, as well as the enhancement of its flavor, as a sacred practice. They strive to perfect their alchemical and mixological skills, believing that through the creation of potent blood-based concoctions, they can unlock the deepest mysteries of existence, improve the taste of blood, and elevate themselves beyond the limitations of their vampiric nature. <br>
			'''Virtue: Temperance'''<br>
			====Ethics of the Path====
			* 1. Blood is Sacred: Every drop of blood holds potential and power. It must not be wasted but rather transformed into something greater.
			* 2. Alchemy and Mixology are Arts: The process of transforming blood is not merely scientific—it is an art. Approach each creation, whether for power or flavor, with care, precision, and reverence.
			* 3. Knowledge through Experimentation: Experimenting with different blood types and alchemical and mixological formulas is essential. True understanding comes from practice and innovation.
			* 4. Protect the Secrets: The knowledge of blood alchemy and the art of mixology are not for everyone. Guard them carefully, sharing only with those who have proven themselves worthy.
			* 5. Strive for Perfection: Each concoction or drink should be a step towards mastering the art of blood alchemy and mixology. Never settle for mediocrity. 6. Balance is Key: Temperance in all things is essential. Overindulgence, even in the pursuit of knowledge or flavor, can lead to ruin.
			====Hierarchy of Sins====
			* 1. Failing to experiment with new alchemical and mixological formulas.
			* 2. Consuming blood without attempting to transform or enhance its flavor.
			* 3. Revealing alchemical or mixological secrets to the uninitiated.
			* 4. Failing to perfect an alchemical or mixological formula.
			* 5. Using inferior ingredients for alchemical concoctions or drinks.
			* 6. Neglecting the study of new blood sources.
			* 7. Sharing alchemical creations or drinks with those who are not worthy.
			* 8. Using alchemy or mixology for trivial purposes.
			* 9. Allowing one’s alchemical creations or drinks to be destroyed.
			* 10. Failing to drink a unique or powerful blood source, even if only for its flavor.
