Framework

The Abundance Ritual

Establishing a power persona by showcasing an overwhelming quantity of a valuable object through a sequence of casual, disrespectful, and skillful manipulations.

  2. 2

    The Symbolic Disregard

    The character casually discards a significant portion of the object, signaling that their supply is so vast that loss is meaningless, thereby amplifying their status.

  3. 3

    The Artful Reformation

    The character shifts focus to a new portion of the object and manipulates it with practiced skill into an iconic and aesthetically pleasing form.
