The energy that courses through the veins of all that lives is manifest in the art of [[Primality]], the most
direct skill in a [[Shamans (Class)|Shaman's]] arsenal. By tapping into the primal energy derived from their natural magics and
the bounty of gifts blessed upon them by [[Dendara]], Primality allows the Shaman to shape powerful bursts of
lightning, monumental storms of wind, and curses that drain vital forces themselves directly from their foe.
Such is their connection to Nature, that they may even command nature around them to grow, lashing their foes
with venomous vines and leaving their battered foe to be reclaimed by the Cycle itself.
