On the Flamma
The basic concept of the flamma can be found here.
|
We too believe everything has a Soul, which we call flamma, for it is a more ample and complex notion than the traditional use of such word. This ethereal entity, or essence, is what provides any inanimate object with reaction, and every animate object with life. We see it everywhere, when we feel a cold gust of wind, notice the sparks of a fire or hear the end of the fall of the raindrops. It has consequences beyond the immediately perceived, and as food changes its form and substance when exposed to the right amounts of heat, also we change, for better or worse, under certain influences, not always visible to the casual observer. |
Soul Dualism
The flamma is made of two principles, each of which autonomous spirit beings in their own right.
The favilla could be translated as the personality, the 'self'. A man can live temporarily lose its favilla, such in certain cases of unconsciousness and trance-like states, in where the favilla leaves the body for various reasons. It is thought that the deeper one sleeps, the less attached its favilla is to the body. Evil spirits can take advantage of that to replace a man's favilla with its own, creating what are known as spirit-possessions.
The calor can be roughly translated as the life, breath, warmth or stamina. It's the raw principle of material life, without which a body cannot survive.
It is debated where an Undead has lost their favilla and/or their calor, or if they have had them simply corrupted.
