Mark

The Mark of Fate

There is a strange coin. This coin is, in style, much like a German Mark; but it is no simple mark. Crafted by the svartalfar (dwarves) for Urd (fate) of the Norns, this silver coin holds a great and terrible power. When it is cast (flipped) by a mortal, the side that it lands on will tell their fate for the coming day. At midnight the Mark will cast itself again. Between these times he whose fate is being marked will always get the same result should he try to cast the mark again. If another casts the mark, it is their fate that it will mark until midnight. Should the mark land face up, all who see the one marked by fate with reverence, and will do anything that they ask or command. Should the mark land face down, the reverse is true, and the one marked must do anything they are asked or told to do. Such is the fickle nature of Urd.
