Figuring out how to permanently strengthen the veil to prevent further tears, who and what rifters are, and how to prevent the anchors from eventually killing those who have them are all high priorities. Kirkwall's particularly thin Veil makes it a good—if slightly dangerous—testing ground for many of these efforts.

anchor survey / filled out with project member transcribing

[extraverse]

Name: Ignis Scientia
Native or Rifter: Rifter
Date of Arrival/Date of Anchor Acquisition: Wintermarch 11
Location of Arrival/Acquisition: Vinmark Mountains
Location of Anchor: Palm of hand.

When the Anchor was first acquired, how long did the initial flare-up/pain persist? On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the most severe), what was the severity? Two days. The pain level ebbed between four and seven.

Since then, what other circumstances have caused those symptoms to resurface? Have you developed any symptoms beyond what what initially present? If so, please describe. I have not encountered situations which have caused flare ups, though if that changes I will report it.

Have you participated in a rift closure? If more than once, how many times and how far were these times spread apart? If you cannot be precise, do your best to estimate. Please describe the shard's reaction and any physical symptoms. I have not participated in a rift closure at this time.

Has your anchor evolved to the point where you have abilities beyond rift closure? What are they, and how many days passed between acquiring the anchor and this new ability? I have not acquired additional abilities at this time.

How did these new abilities manifest? Can you describe your anchor's reaction (e.g. pain/pulsing, light flaring/sparking)? Approximately how long did it persist? Did said reaction extend beyond the initial anchor site, e.g. past the hand and further up the arm? Not applicable.

Have these abilities been battle-tested? This includes sparring. Not applicable.

Since the acquisition of the anchor, have you noticed any other changes in the anchor or how bearing one has affected you? I have not noticed any other changes at this time.

After the battle at Adamant, several anchor-bearers physically entered the Fade. If you were among them, how did your anchor react while within? Were there any long-lasting effects? Not applicable.

For natives: Has the anchor acquisition changed your relationship to the Fade in any other sense? Not applicable.

For native dwarves: Have you gained the ability to dream or otherwise interact with the Fade beyond rift closure? Not applicable.

For others: Have you found any changes in your sleeping/dreaming patterns? Have your dreams become more lucid? Less? There have been no changes in my sleeping patterns at this time.

Would you be willing to participate in regular check-ups, that we may monitor your particular anchor? I would. I think giving you the opportunity to track a new comer's progress starting right after he arrived would be a benefit to your research.

If any of your answers change in future, would you be willing to provide an update? Yes, of course.
