In addition to simpler illusory incantations, korrigans may perform a powerful ritual known as the Rite of the Veil, which summons an [[archives#folklore|Archfey]] for a short period of time. The immense magical power of the Archfey makes this ritual a valuable opportunity to bargain for information and favours, potentially turning the tides of a dire situation -- but interactions with the Archfey rarely come without a cost. Though the summoned Archfey may not harm the korrigans performing the rite (at least, not until they are released from it), korrigans should always enter this ritual knowing what they want... and what they are willing to give up.

 Korrigans have names that flow like the sea, and have a total of five in their full name. It goes: Given name, Middle name, First Parent’s name, Second Parent’s name, Surname. Surnames, while the same as one of the parents’, are picked almost purely on what sounds or feels best. Korrigans have names that flow like the sea, and have a total of five in their full name.

 +====Attitudes to Other Nations====
 +
 +While korrigans may have a range of viewpoints on the world and their fellow Bendith, here are some commonly held attitudes towards other nations:
 +
 +===Havod===
 +The booakers of Havod are often viewed as superstitious and stubborn. Particularly open-minded korrigans might be willing to concede that booakers can communicate with their own dead, but for the most part, their belief system is considered wholly antithetical to that of the korrigans. Historic attempts by the booakers to communicate with or revive deceased korrigan spirits have been interpreted as rude at best, or outright hostile to Mythve culture at worst.
 +
 +===Llanhythel===
 +The gwyllion of Llanhythel are largely respected by the korrigans for their military strength. As the landlocked, forested Llanhythel rarely has direct contact with coastal Mythvye, korrigan ideas of Llanhythel and its people are often formed from reputation alone; indeed, many korrigans believe the population of Llanhythel to be significantly larger than it actually is. Though some older korrigans who recall the Hand of Anwar campaign regard Llanhythel with some suspicion, Mythvye's unique martial specialisms mean that few actually view the gwyllion as a threat.
 +
 +===Lyonn===
 +The piskies of Lyonn are often viewed as intimidating in their numbers and organisation. Their distribution across yarldoms makes it difficult to keep up with who holds power, who is most open to trade, and who absolutely should not be crossed under any circumstances. Furthermore, Mythvye’s distance from the borders of the Faewilds makes it difficult for some korrigans to empathise with the piskies’ fixation on the dangers lurking within – or their fierce response to even the slightest suggestion that they might be over-exaggerating.  As a result, korrigans typically take a rather guarded approach to unfamiliar piskies.
 +
 +===Kloth’va===
 +Until the formation of Vanora’s Watch, the korrigans tended to view the coblynau of Kloth’va as hostile nuisances. This reputation arose from semi-frequent clashes between korrigan explorers and coblynau warriors stationed defensively along Kloth’va’s coasts and rivers. While some older korrigans may not have shaken this old animosity, younger generations have embraced the connection between nations that Vanora’s Watch has encouraged, and relations with the Merchant and Worker classes in particular have flourished in recent decades.
