A symbol of dragonbone is a common piece of jewelry worn by the devout. It is popular with adherents of the Way who are not themselves priests. While its power is limited, it provides spiritual strength in time of need. It is very popular with those who must spend extended periods of time away from friends and family, especially those who will be beyond the reach of a trusted priest. The most common form for one of these symbols to take is an amulet, medallion, pendant or badge marked with a symbol associated with one of the virtues, a paragon or exemplar, or with the Way as a whole. Tiny amounts of dragonbone are worked into the symbol, which serves as a focus for the [[Religious skills#Hallow|hallow]] ceremony.

Description

A symbol of dragonbone is a common piece of jewelry worn by the devout. It is popular with adherents of the Way who are not themselves priests. While its power is limited, it provides spiritual strength in time of need. It is popular with devout warriors, and with those who face constant peril on the battlefield, as it helps them replenish their reserves of inner strength.

The most common form for one of these symbols to take is an amulet, medallion, pendant or badge marked with a symbol associated with one of the virtues, a paragon or exemplar, or with the Way as a whole. The symbol is always crafted with tiny amounts of dragonbone, which help create a connection between the wearer and a consecrated aura. The amulet is commonl hallowed with an aura that complements the dedication or anointing of the wearer.

The Way tends does not encourage too much introspection. While it is possible to draw on the power of a dragonbone symbol through quiet meditation, it is much more common to engage in spirited debate about the nature of the virtues, or to prevail on a suitable priest to deliver a sermon, offer spiritual advice, or lead a discussion about ways that the virtue can offer spiritual strength.
