Dvanagask is the state of clarity that results from the perfect amount of pain. The word means "pain focus" in High Vinthish. Too little and one is asleep or oblivious, too much pain and one is numb. It was considered the ideal state by the ancient Emra Gohg cult and the modern-day Vurg. The problem with these two "cultures of pain", however, was that dvanagask would become harder to pin down as one's pain tolerance increased.
- Pain awakens focus, and thus awakens awareness; clarity begets advantage over those who avoid pain. Excess dulls the senses, so I must restrain unless it is time for revelry. - Pain Litany
