Decadier

Decay is a Decadier (Vitaen) only skill. Ninety nine percent of all Decadier members are Vitaen because they are born with the innate abilities to either Decay or Grow. On their naming day they are tested and those who have the ability to Decay are sent to the Decadier who revere the god of decay and death and keep the world's balance. Once in a long while someone not Vitae will catch Gaug's eye and he might take them into the Decadier and grant them this skill.

Decay is exactly what it sounds like. It allows the person who has this skill to encourage proper decay. Decayed things cause a much richer nutritious mulch for new growth. Those who use their skill decay on dead matter creates that much more nutritious matter. Plants that use the skilled decayed mulch will have large plants, more hearty plants, and yields more produce.

The god Gaug and the goddess of birth and renewal his lover Auta keep strict watch over Decadeir and Durata to ensure no one is misusing their gifts to unbalance nature. They do not go lightly on those they deem are mishandling their gifts.

Some might wonder what good would sensing natural death in non-sentient beings (Things like plants) would be to the world. Anyone who has had a roof crashed in on them due to the unexpected felling of a tree that had died would be able to tell. This also helps Durata pinpoint why a seemingly healthy plant is ailing, as parasites, and illnesses are also considered natural deaths in nature.
