Ji'Kalna

Ji'Kalna is a fractured Goddess, her primal being have shattered into many selves early in her existence when she entered the jeweled room and became fascinated by the multiple images of herself each showing a different aspect of who she was. Unable to pick on just one and choosing all, she shattered and the one became many.

The noble houses, of which there were seven but are now only currently five, each serve one of her "primary" or major 'faces', the Houses traditionally believing that these are her only faces. However this is not true for she has many faces, none knowing truly how many. The River people are rather amused that the Mountain house lords only acknowledge seven and now seemingly only five.

Each House will therefore 'serve' one of her faces in the Game, and when the Goddess speaks to that house, or house Priest/ess, it will be that aspect that speaks to them. It is this fact that is behind part of the driving force of the Game, each house being told different things at the same time and doing their best to follow and interpret the Goddess' wishes.

So each of the player Houses should pick one of the Major Faces to be the one that their House 'serves', just as we are also picking colors. There are seven listed to allow the players a greater list to pick from.

The Faces of the Ji'Kalna

After her shattering in the room of jeweled facets, Ji'Kalna was no longer one but many. First listed are her seven major faces; only five are currently used by the five noble houses.
The next list of faces are more minor known and acknowledged face of Ji'Kalna. This list is in no way complete; the River people have lore amongst them of many more faces.
