Natural and supernatural emotions are very powerful. They are what drives most people. They are the foundation of faith in many as well. Certain emotions, however, have specific uses and supernatural powers, while all emotions can be used to fuel certain supernatural abilities.

Specific emotions: many of these powers double as narrative powers, though they derive from the Name of someone
Love is possibly the strongest of all emotions, the basis for most other emotions and emotional reactions, and the most common emotion. It is a potent source of energy for narrative and character, and the Power of Love can be invoked for many, many supernatural events. It is a protective and empowering source of energy, and at the same time, it can lead to destruction and death. The narativie ability fueled by Love is called Hagba, an opportunistic, moment-driven power. It's opposite, driven by Hatred is simply Vengeance.

Envy powers the doppelganger power of Consumption.

Fear is the second most powerful of all emotions, the counter-point (not opposite of) to Love. Fear manifests and propagates itself. Fear drives people to work against themselves. Fear fuels most dark emotions. The manipulation of fear for the sake of power is so common it is the basis of a significant portion of the world's leaders' power. The manifestation of fear as a living force is Bogeyman, but he has many forms.

Honor is an emotional characteristic that motivates many people and creates narrative situations, such as Duels and Honorable Servitude. Owning the life of another is also possible through honorable circumstance (such as sparing their life).
