Malum : Soul Infusion

Malum: Soul Infusion

Malum: Soul Infusion — An add-on for Malum that carries spirit arcana into the soul infusion.

The soul is not a resource. It is a residue — what remains when consciousness is fused, condensed, and offered to the Weeping Well. What returns is a **Soul Core**: a blank vessel waiting to be shaped.

The Soul Core

Fused Consciousness is not meant to be stable. Drop it into the Weeping Well and it collapses into something purer — a **Soul Core**, the foundation of every infusion to come.

No soul is born from nothing. Each one must be shaped.

The Souls

Eight souls, each a different facet of what a weapon can become:

- Sharpness Soul — the edge that never dulls. +1 Attack Damage per level.

- Fortitude Soul — the weight of stone. +2 Armor per level.

- Swiftness Soul — the wind beneath your feet. +5% Movement Speed per level.

- Vitality Soul — the pulse that refuses to stop. +2 Max Health per level.

- Fortune Soul — fate's quiet favor. +1 Luck per level.

- Resilience Soul — the refusal to be moved. +5% Knockback Resistance per level.

- Ferocity Soul — the strike before the thought. +8% Attack Speed per level.

- Reaping Soul — the arc of the scythe. +8% Scythe Proficiency per level.

Each soul is shaped at Malum's Spirit Altar: a Soul Core in the center, offerings on the pedestals.

The Soul Infusion Table

A new altar, built in Malum's dark tradition. Place your gear on one side, a soul on the other, and let the infusion take hold.

- Each item holds up to 3 different soul types.

- Each soul can reach level 3 (both configurable).

- Infusion is not instant — the table works in silence, one layer at a time.

Not every item can accept a soul. Only those with combat intent — weapons, armor, tools — will respond. The rest reject the offering.

Integration

Soul Infusion is built as an extension of Malum, not a separate system.

- Soul Core is obtained through Malum's Weeping Well.

- All souls are crafted at Malum's Spirit Altar.

- Recipes use Malum spirits: Wicked, Arcane, Earthen, Aerial, Sacred.

The mod is still in active development.
