Zorai Masks

Just a random question, that I don't think I saw the answer to while reading all the Ryzom lore: Are Zorai born with masks, or do they graft them on later in life, like as a Rite of Passage for Kami?

IIRC They get them later in life... after passing thru a ritual... I don't remember all the details tho... I am sure a more heavy RPer will show up to answer better :P

Great read. I found this passage extremely interesting. Thanks for the link.

"A question comes to my mind, are there Zoraïs who end up following Jena's path?

The path of each homin is known only by him/herself and Ma-Duk. Our brothers and sisters you are talking about have this passage written in their lives, in their selves. It is not a betrayal, only a necessary detour, an experience which will get them even closer to Ma-Duk and which will guide them towards Illumination."

Is their any Karavanite(?) lore that argues against this "philosophy" of the Kamists?

If what Cioi Ba-Nung is saying is exact, then why aren't the Newborn island Zorais maskless?

Indeed :p

And who can remember when they were only a few years old? Seems some homins even have problems remembering what happened 8 to 10 years ago as well hehe.

And as far as I know, not one of the few married Zoraïs has born a child ;)
Thus we haven't been able to witness the seremony

The ceremony process would be a very cool in game event.
