Grisha Order Guide | The Grishaverse

For most of the life of the Second Army, the Corporalki were considered its most valuable soldiers and consequently, were the highest ranking Grisha. Their power focuses on the human body.

Heartrender

Heartrender: Among the most feared of the Grisha, Heartrenders have the ability to manipulate the body. They can snatch the air from your lungs, slow your pulse until you fall into a coma, or even literally crush your heart—all from a distance. Their only weakness? Their mark must be in their line of sight.

Tailor

Tailor: Tailors possess the ability to change their appearance and the appearance of others, such as eye or hair color, bone structure, and face or body shape. The more advanced Tailors can make these alterations for long periods of time, or in some cases, permanently.

Etherealki have power relating to the natural elements. While Grisha cannot create or animate matter, they can summon it and bend it to their will. Because of this ability, Etherealki are often referred to as Summoners. They frequently work in pairs.

These are the laboratory masters of the Grisha Orders. Previously the least respected, Materialki have become increasingly valuable to the war effort as enemy military innovations have begun to surpass the power of Grisha magic. Though not originally considered combat soldiers, Materialki are now included in combat training under the Grisha Triumvirate.

Durasts

They deal in matter such as Grisha steel, corecloth (similar to modern body armor), textiles, glass, wood, and stone. While Durasts’ powers are often used defensively in their work developing ingenious creations (such as the keftas worn by the Second Army), they can also be used offensively. For example, they are able to absorb harmful matter from another’s body, but can also turn it on another person and use it to wound or sicken them.
