.Dt LINKING-SIGIL 7
.Os Basmentaria
.
.Sh NAME
.Nm Linking Sigil
.Nd Link two places or concepts together
.
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The Linking Sigil was invented
by the Domo Khaos Maurauder Underground hypercollective
and is used to link two
places or concepts together energetically
by connecting them to the
.Xr "156 current" 7 .
.
.Pp
When the network reached a certain bandwidth
the Linking Sigil produced a godform
known as Ellis.
She is described as a woman in a red cloak and hood,
or sometimes as a red spider.

.Dt DREAM-SIGIL 7
.Os Basmentaria
.
.Sh NAME
.Nm Dream Sigil
.Nd Access the dream realm
.
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The Dream Sigil was originally invented to facilitate lucid dreaming.
It ascended into a godform named Konsu,
who is the ruler of the Realm of Dreams.
.Pp
The sigil can still be used for its intended purpose.
But care must be taken to not accidentally summon the Lord of Dreams,
for he does not tolerate frivolity.
.Pp
Ravens are Konsu's chosen familiars.
And he himself will often appear as one in both the dreaming and the waking world.
.Pp
Konsu is believed to have been the first traveler from the Cosm
(aka the known world, or the waking world)
to Ousia, the sea of dreams.
After a lifetime of drifting in its waters,
the sea closed over him and eons later,
like an oyster protecting itself from an irritant,
it had formed the island of Ephemeris from his body.
.Pp
Konsu reigns from Ephemeris,
appearing in the waking and the dream world as one of his various avatars.
.
.Sh OTHER NAMES
.Nm Konsu ,
.Nm Morphius ,
.Nm Traveler ,
.Nm Dude 215R ,
