Red strings of Fate connect people across space and time, ensuring they’ll be important to one another at some point regardless of how. Both the Kami and the Shén may distribute them to their Scions, in some cases before a Scion even experiences her Visitation — she can’t use the Relic yet, but she can see it and knows it’s momentous somehow. Red strings of Fate are invisible to anyone who doesn’t have a direct connection to the divine, so mortals can only guess at their influence based on auspicious events or seeming coincidences. As a Relic, the red string needn’t be a literal string; it might instead be a bracelet, a shoelace, or a belt. A Hero who wears such a Relic tied around part of her body, like a finger or an ankle, or perhaps as a ribbon in her hair, chooses to entangle herself further in the complex webs Fate weaves across the World.

Knack: The Scion may have one additional Fatebinding Condition beyond her dots in Legend. The benefits of multiple red strings don’t stack.
