	==Description==		==Description==
	The ''Icon of the Driven'', also known as an ''Icon of the Ascendant'', allows a priest to perform [[Religious skills\|ceremonies]] as if they were [[dedication\|dedicated]] to the virtue of [[Ambition]]. It generally takes the form of a piece of religious art, usually depicting a [[Paragons_and_Exemplars\|paragon or exemplar]] of Ambition [[Tian]] (often called an ''Icon of the Burnt''), [[Aldones di Sarvos]], or [[Adelmar the Lion]]. The Icon is not always a portrait, however - in [[Wintermark]] it is sometimes crafted in the form of a medallion or short rod decorated with the bones and feathers of rooks , generally decorated with the [[Naeve\|Rune of Hunger]], which is known as an ''Icon of the Rook'' or, more rarely, an ''Icon of the Hungry''. In [[Varushka]], the icon commonly takes the form of a statuette of a fox and is known as a ''Wily Fox''. Other less common variants are certainly possible - from the expertly [[The_Brass_Coast_culture_and_customs#Art\|illustrated]] scrolls recounting the great deeds of the [[the Brass Coast\|Freeborn]], to the beautiful three-panel triptych favoured in [[the League]] (generally showing the humble origins, great struggle, and eventual success of the character depicted - with the final panel invariably suggesting that rather than resting on their laurels the ambitious person will not work towards a new goal).		The ''Icon of the Driven'', also known as an ''Icon of the Ascendant'', allows a priest to perform [[Religious skills\|ceremonies]] as if they were [[dedication\|dedicated]] to the virtue of [[Ambition]].

	Icons of the Driven are significantly less popular than other, similar ~~Icons~~. Priests who rely on them sometimes encounter an unspoken, perhaps even unconscious, prejudice from dedicated priests and lay followers of Ambition. Splitting one's focus - using a [[magic items\|magical item]] to allow one to wield the auras of Ambition is sometimes seen as reflecting a lack of character, drive, or commitment. To many ambitious people, it simply makes no sense to be dedicated to another virtue and use an Icon of the Driven - it is much more appropriate to be dedicated to Ambition and use the tools provided to employ the auras provided by lesser virtues. It is rarely acceptable to put such sentiments into words, of course.		Icons of the Driven are significantly less popular than other, similar icons.

Inspiring Refrain allows the user to perform ceremonies dedicated to [[Ambition]].

This instrument is equally valuable to a priest who is dedicated to one of the other six virtues as it is to a priest who is dedicated to none of the virtues - a priest of the Way. Indeed, in some ways it is more useful to the latter philosophy of priest - it allows them to use the ceremonies of anointing, consecration and hallowing; without an instrument such as this, they would be restricted to supporting other priests in creating these auras. Likewise, a priest dedicated to a virtue other than ambition can partake of a little of the versatility of the priest dedicated to the Way as a whole, aiding priests in the creation of an aura as if they shared their dedication..

In Wintermark, Ambition is represented by [[naeve]], Rune of Hunger. Because this rune has negative connotations, it is rarely used openly on an Inspiring Refrain.
