Keeper of the Veritama

So, Pinky suggested I let people ask for me to create a Veritama for them. This is to help me expand my library in universe, while also letting people see Synar's Veritama a bit more in depth. RULES: 1. It cannot be "Specific". Veritama encapsulate Core ideas, objects, constructs. You can't ask for say a Veritama of say a "Mighty Undead Soldier who Wields a Blade of Fire". That's too complex for a single Veritama and would require a system. 2. Try to ask for something you think I haven't done before. If I have done it, I'll post it and let you pick another. _____________________________________________________________________________________ With that out of the way, Feel free to ask away! Note: It takes time for me to hit upon the "Right" pattern for a Veritama, so it may take some time for me to actually get to your Veritama. EDIT 2: All Veritama will be added to this Album: All Requested Veritama after they have been completed. EDIT: Here is a List of requests that have NOT YET BEEN COMPLETED. Innocence Corruption/Blight Forsaken/Abandoned Madness/Insanity Chaos Order Harmony Wealth Greed Edited by CrazedPorcupine, Apr 11 2016, 09:04 PM.

It's nice to see this up ^.^ As for my personal requests I was wondering about Pain, Honor, Sacrifice, Innocence, Corruption and Joy. That should keep you busy for a bit! Edited by Pinky Lotus, Apr 4 2016, 01:43 PM.

Pretty interesting. Are these Veritama purely isolated, or are they in some way analytical? (Look at this if you need explanation) If it's analytical, then I'd be really interested to see what the morphemes are for this ![]() Also do one for Light Edited by BetaDude40, Apr 4 2016, 02:50 PM.

Much like how english words often have similar Roots, Veritama that are interrelated will share similar roots. I do have the Veritama for Light actually. ![]() Light |

Many abstract concepts are stylized based off of their english words. Even Honor is based off it's English Equivalent, albeit in a much more clever manner. Following Is Loyalty, which also uses its english word. ![]() Be cause of the difficulty in expressing the nature of an idea without a word is hard, I often will use the word itself as the inspiration.

When I was developing my own "language" I would often look at English, Cryllic, and Greek letters, replace parts of the word with alternate alphabets, then mix up those characters. |

In the Setting of League, Veritama are the glyphs that eventually gave way to runes, which eventually gave way to letters. The word Joy acutally derives from it's Veritama. It developed into two distinct runes, the J like bottom, and the Yo like top part, To make them fit together, eventually the Yo rune was mirrored and became oY instead, and as runes developed more into traditional characters, the word became Joy and the Veritama was lost. |

As I post more Veritama into the album, it may become a bit more clear as to how certain Veritama are linked together. |

Whether a Veritama has straight lines primarily or curves has nothing to do with whether a Veritama is "Good" or "Evil". Veritama represent the essence. Chaos is disorderly, overlapping withitself in randomness. Order is sorted, clean, simple. Also, Forsaken wasn't meant to look like someone dancing, despite that being how it turned out. Forsaken/Abandoned in it's basic form is the idea that someone deals with pain of that abandonment.The Pain Veritama is readily apparent within it, while the markers for humanity/mankind is also within it. Insanity is imposing corruption upon an otherwise untouched mind. The two are invariably linked as insanity will often have times of sanity and clarity. Thus a reflection between the two. |
