Ozan's Gift

Family members of the Sultanate are granted power by the people of Kumdan Tepe due to their supposed ability to commune with the god Ozan. According to legend Ozan gifted Halis, the first sultan, the ability to call upon him to aid the people of Kumdan Tepe when needed. In exchange the sultan must give up one of their five senses when they accept Ozan's gift and lose another sense every ten years.
