- For other uses of the term, see Brood.
Broods are symbiotic relationships formed by spirits, often within niche environments within the Shadow.[1] They have been known to form among spirits for whom eating one another for Essence is taboo.[2]
In order to most efficiently gather Essence, broods tend to be themed.[3] As such, they often bear similar Influences.[4]
Types of Broods[]
Though their themed nature grants a wide variety to broods, they can be roughly divided into two kinds: roving and territorial.
Roving broods are those not bound to a single location.[4] Their nature compels them to wander for food.[4] The following are known examples of roving broods:
Territorial broods, by contrast, are centered around a specific environment.[4] The brood claims this territory and works to make it their own.[4] The resonance this forms provides greater quantities of Essence for them.[4] Known examples of territorial broods are as follows:
