Divinity Concealment & Detection
How Divinity is sensed, masked, and kept secret on the Mortal Realm.

Human Form see-through
When a divinity bloodline uses Human Form:
RequiredDivinityToSeeThrough = TargetDivinity + 50
Success reveals bloodline and true form.
While Aura concealment holds: apparent Divinity often reads 0 — exposure comes from careless tells (wings, dropped focus, partial demonize).
Aura concealment
Full Aura mastery practitioners can mask apparent Level, Rank, and Divinity by constantly allocating Qi.
| Topic | Detail |
|---|---|
| Default read | Plausible low profile (e.g. school F-rank) |
| Not silent | Observers may notice Aura fluctuations |
| Failure | Carelessness — wings, tells, stopped cloak |
| Who | Master-tier Aura only |
Ambient masking
Not a universal item rule — technique / output that can partially mask a small Divinity signature.
| Topic | Detail |
|---|---|
| Pattern | Very high light magic output (e.g. Light Wizard + innate light affinity) can blur how Divinity reads to weaker observers |
| Limits | S+ Awakened may still sense underlying Divinity; strong nearby mortals may notice immediately |
| Not guaranteed | Does not replace Human Form rules or the Feline Emblem |
Canon example: Gu Xian — Light blur; complements Carmilla's Clan Symbol deterrence.
Feline clan Emblem
Small shoulder mark — stylized slit-pupil eye, amber-gold and black.
| Topic | Rule |
|---|---|
| Mechanics | Hides Divinity < 10 from casual reads |
| Distinct from | Carmilla's Clan Symbol — large back tattoo |
Institutional secrecy
BC 500 Pact — general public must not learn Divinity exists. Awakened Association and Order of the Silver Cross are approved insider layers.
Divinity reporting: any human with Divinity ≥ 1 must be reported to Heaven.
Not concealment
Carmilla's Clan Symbol — deterrence, not a hide. See Emblems.
