Multiple manifestation

Multiple manifestation is the gift, among people of the Geroni city of Avlor Aten in the campaign Yeni Dünya ("New World"), of being one person in more than one identical body at the same time. The band first met it when a second official, the image of the first and wearing a marked brooch, came in and the one with the second number gave place to him.¹

The law

The head consul explained that his two forms were not twins but manifestations of one person, and that the law requires people with several manifestations to wear numbers. When he helped the band escape, he planned to swap his first and second brooches so that witnesses would remember seeing him in two places, which he admitted was against the law.^{2 3 4}

The gift, he said, is not learned but born: in his people it comes at birth. While he stayed at home, his other manifestation went to his office and kept him informed of the state of the city.⁵

Fivefold manifestations

The founder of the city, the head consul said, had five manifestations; the founder's name was not given. Later he told of Deimos, a powerful mage from a Geroni city-state in the mountains that was thought to have fallen, called by a byname meaning the Messenger of God, who had talked the cities into war and promised a secret weapon. His five manifestations were taken as a sign pointing to the founding five.^{6 7}

That same night the head consul suddenly said that he had been attacked by an assassin, and running feet were heard nearing the house. Having lost his other manifestation, he felt shock and confusion more than pain. The one who died, he said, was not a separate being: he himself still lived, and the loss was like losing an arm.^{5 8 9}
