Alright let's tackle another Soul CRT.

Soul as Information

Definition of Information in this wiki:

Type 1, Information at this level refers to data that exists as knowledge—something that can be perceived, learned, remembered, or understood by a mind. It includes thoughts, memories, records, and any form of communicable or knowable content. This type of information is dependent on awareness or mediums that store and transmit it, meaning it primarily concerns what can be known or recognized rather than what fundamentally constitutes reality itself.

Type 2, Information at this level refers to the underlying data that composes and defines reality itself. It is not merely something that can be known, but something that determines the structure, properties, identity, and existence of all things. In this sense, information functions as the foundational framework of reality, similar to code in a system, where altering it would directly change how existence operates at its most fundamental level.

A brief and summary about Soul in the Verse.


Tl;dr

In simple terms, the soul is what actually makes someone them. It holds everything that matters—your memories, thoughts, will, and identity. The body is just a container, but the soul is the real core. Without it, a being isn’t truly alive, and once it’s gone, everything that defined that person starts to scatter and disappear completely.

Souls themselves aren’t physical. They don’t have a real shape and can exist on their own without a body. Even after separation, they can still think, remember, and stay aware. That’s why the body doesn’t really define existence—the soul does.

The point of CRT is to determine which one types of information is accurate.

And I wholeheartedly give this to staff to decide.


Adventurer will obviously scale cuz they already have soul manipulation on their profile.

That's it, hope staff will evaluate this🙏.
 
Sorry, can you give your opinion on why it's type 2🙏
Mostly the fundemental part, if a being loses its soul it seemingly loses all things at make up that being (memories identity thoughts will etc) as long as it applies to all beings i think it works

Thanks for your opinion!
 
Okay, I can’t quite grasp why it’s considered "information" in the first place. In none of the scans (in the blog) is it stated that souls are data or information, and just because something defines you doesn’t make it "information" unless stated or supported. But… I’ll let the mod decide.

This is not info type 2. A mind and especially a soul that contains it is fundamental to a person because they require it to think or be conscious. This is not fundamental as in some fundamental information that serves as substance of every aspect of a being.

Sorry can u give me an example?

Would need to be like a code that makes up someones being. Something to qualify a soul thing would need the soul to be the fundamental code/information of a being itself rather than containing the mind which is nothing other than the mind.

So like every single things the body is created by soul right?
 
This at most gives Mind Manipulation and Memory Manipulation to characters that can affect souls in this setting. Information Manipulation requires a lot more than this.

How we can know that some concept or something is information or code without the mention of them? Genuine question btw I'm not pushing it

It just has to be analogous enough to information to count. Runic Magic in God of War is an example I can think of. Point is that it has to be "information" that underpins and makes up reality itself. Just making up the soul this way in the sense of memories isn't remotely enough for this.
