An Avatar is when a Divine Principal or Cosmic Principal projects a part of itself as a material manifestation. The principal entity feels, senses, and interacts as though they were there – though it is not the entity itself. The entity, in small measure, experiences everything the avatar does. The avatar does not possess the full measure of Principal power of its source, the lower order material form could not contain such Essence. Avatars have an extreme form of Empowered Bonds which cannot be broken.
