Mark of Illumination
this religious insignia was used by the mystics of the Chalactan Enlightenment to denote an individual who had become one with his or her gods. The mark was formed by affixing one or two small beads to the frontal bone of an individual's skull. There were two distinct Marks of Illumination which could be earned by a Chalactan. A single Mark on the bridge of the nose, known as the Lesser Mark of Illumination, indicated an individual's devotion to their gods. A second Mark on the forehead, known as the Greater Mark of Illumination, indicated an individual's attainment of the rank of Chalactan Adept. Together, the two Marks signified the most basic tenet of Chalactan Enlightenment, "As Without, So Within".
