Identify Curse
Orbit 20/40

Identify Curse was an art created before the Great Loss by a Dreamer named
DiBauda. This great Dreamer came into the City just before the Dreamstrike
wars, and was an Empath in his shard. DiBauda was able to carry his ability of
being an empath into the Dream, and was able to feel what others were feeling.
His ability to give the prognosis to almost any problem was unrivaled. He knew
for the most part what dreamers were feeling, because he himself was able to
feel it.

DiBauda was a Dreamseer of great influence because of this. He was feared by
those who wanted others to succumb to their wills, because DiBauda knew what
dreamers truly held in their hearts, no matter how secret they kept it from
others.

DiBauda had discovered a way of transferring this ability to his use of
insight, and was able to teach dreamers the ability to detect the burdens
others beared in order to help them. He held himself to four apprentices. These
four dreamers were known as Lorac, the creator of Purify, Morden, the creator
of Protection, cybele, the creator of Identify, and a little unknown dreamer
named Albestor who is still forgotten in the dream today. Though not well
known, Albestor's deeds for both the Dream and illuminates are both extensive
and far-reaching.

DiBauda gathered these four apprentices before the height of the Dreamstrike
wars, opposing both the Dreamstrike Masters AND the Entrophy Coalition. He
attempted to gather all those that he had befriended, and helped in the past to
aid his cause to fight these two foes. He believed one group or the other would
bring the Dream under their sway and have total subjecation of the Dream before
the end, or until they destroyed the Dream.

The Dreamstrike Masters, fearing Dibauda and his following, attacked them, and
were able to remove DiBaude and three of his apprentices. The fourth, Albestor,
went into hiding.

Albestor carried on in hiding teaching a select few of his followers to pass on
the art of Identify Curse. Albestor went on to create another great art we know
today as Recharge but eventually the Entrophy Coalition did catch up with him
and had him struck as he knew they would, for they feared he would bring about
a following to that similar of DiBauda.

Identify Curse became a rumor of an art, and only a select few Dreamseers were
permitted to learn the art from the Masters of Insight before and after the
Great Loss until lately, where the art has been passed down to not only younger
Dreamseers but also to dreamers of other foci, which was the design of DiBauda
before his untimely Dreamstrike, and loss from the Dream.
