Forgery is a manifestation of Investiture on Sel that is powered by the Dor[Falta cita].
Much like AonDor, Dakhor, and the other known magical systems used elsewhere on Sel and detailed in Elantris, Forgery involves shaping a specific form in order to evoke some sort of extra-normal event. There are many types of Forgery that are explored in The Emperor's Soul, but all seem to involve the carving of a sort of stamp, the application of ink to the stamp, and then applying a mark onto the desired object or person.
One appears to need an extraordinary amount of knowledge of the background and composition of the object or person being Forged in order to make a stamp affect a target for an extended period of time. Therefore, Forgers probably need to be scholars and researchers as well as talented artisans.
Types of Forgery
- Soul Forging
- The people of MaiPon practice Forgery on their own souls, making soulstamps which can be used as disguises.
- Resealing
- Forging flesh wounds back to being healed. It can only heal physical wounds. Healed damage to the brain will not restore memory.
- Remembering
- The Heritage Faction employ Forgers to discover the history of objects, manipulating them for aesthetic purposes.
- Bloodsealing
- The Bloodsealers of Dzhamar may be Forgers who use their target's blood to track their whereabouts. They also appear to employ human remains to create skeletal golems[En debate].
