Hey yall, here's an essence map I did based on Varon's username. Each Aspect is an association that I got from reading "Varon". At first I pronounced it in my head as "Va-RONE" which yielded the first two Aspects; then I realized that it could also be pronounced "VAR-on," which yielded the last Aspect. I'll also go ahead and say now that each "ghost" of "Verona's" "tragic past" is a character that dies in Romeo & Juliet. It should be fairly easy for any who've read the play to figure out. Let me know what yall think of it. It's definitely one of my favorites.

Verona{
  Brightness[
    <radiant pearl blazing in the sun>
    <walking flames>]
  Tragic Past[
    Ghosts(
      <a mercurial sprite>
      <a vengeful cat>
      <white rose maiden weeping at the city gates>
      <white wolf howling mournfully at the moon outside the city walls>)}
Varone{
  Grandmother[
    Love(
      <summer sun>
      <glowing smile>
      <diamond eyes>)
    Laughter(
      <ocean waves>
      <Tom Bombadil>)
    Strength(
      <mother bear>)]}
Varon{
  Sword[
    Hard(
      <cold steel>)
    Strong(
      <hornet swarm>
      <iron mountain>
      <jaguar paws>)
    Bright(
      <sun off the snow>
      <interrogation lamp>)]
  Leopard[
    Stealth(
      <night fall>
      <squall>
      Footfalls(
        <leaves on the wind>))
    Fur(
      <mottled shadows>
      <forest canopy>)]}
Hope you liked it.
In Christ,
Jordan

Very original and cool, Seer...kudos to you for testing the limits of essence. It's a treat to read your posts each time you come up with another essence. :D Keep up the good work. (By the way, the Romeo and Juliet idea...very cool)

That's really neat, thanks. And I do normally pronounce it Vare-un, which is also Varon.

Okay, I'm starting to get the whole Essence phenomena.

How was that off topic? You were being cheered for your work?

The conversation before Shawn's post and the one immediately following was starting to head that way.

Nice map, seer.
