.: Madness System :.
Madness, also translated as Insanity, is the force of chaos that is spread by the soul wavelengths of Kishin, Witches, some of the Eight Powerful Warriors, and evil humans. Everyone has some madness within them (some people surpass the normal level). Madness is not only spread, but influences those who submit to it. Madness literally causes people to lose their minds, becoming both senseless and unpredictable, much like the Kishin itself — the epitome of madness. Senseless in this sense does not mean dumb, but strange and erratic. Any person exposed to the wavelength up close starts to hallucinate and become disoriented. A common trait among those who harbor madness is that they each reveal some sort of lunatic-like facial expression be it a disturbing grin or smile to even unusal body shape, the clown is a perfect example of this as it shows a grossly misshapen body.
Because everyone harbors Madness everyone will notice that with every choice you make within your character creation will give you a certain number of points to either add or subtract from your madness. The Madness works on a scale of 20, 1 being the lowest level of Madness a person can have and 20 being completely insane. For those of you who recall Soul Eater. Stien would be on our scale of 15. The higher your madness score the faster you drift off into being lost by the madness as well as being controlled by the Kishin. That's not to say the Madness can't be reversed or lowered. Certain wavelengths and abilities can either help a person comeback from Madness or drift further into the Madness.
As you know witches all possess a certain degree of Madness and most witch wavelengths and souls have the ability to pull people deeper and faster into the madness than being around a normal evil soul. Below is the scale of Madness. Be sure to either memories or keep a copy of this somewhere. Be sure to always refer to this scale. Witches should be sure to note the scale as well, once ones madness reaches a certain point a Witches' power can increase.
