The shoal
The intents are hidden now. Order is shuffled so you cannot tell which glyph is which.

What this is
Shoal is a free sigil shoaling generator for chaos magic. You write up to six intents, it draws a small glyph for each and shuffles them out of order, and you charge and forget the whole batch as one working.
How shoaling works here
Shoaling hides one intent in a crowd of others until you lose track of which is which. Write up to six intents, one per line. The page draws a glyph for each by the wheel, grid or monogram method, then shuffles the glyphs and hides the sentences. After the shuffle, even you can't say which glyph wanted what.
Blame the forgetting step. One sigil is easy to keep half an eye on. You know which want it carries, and the want keeps tapping you on the shoulder all week. Six shuffled glyphs give your attention nowhere to land.
Charge the batch on one timer, one to five minutes, box breath or 4-7-8, eyes soft on the whole shoal instead of any single glyph. Then forget all of it in one move. One receipt prints: the number of glyphs, the date filed, a check-back date. No intents. Not one.
Each intent needs at least one consonant, because vowels get cut and a line of only vowels leaves nothing to draw. Short, checkable jobs work best, same as a single sigil. Never made one? Make one in the sigil generator first and come back for the batch. The receipt goes to the Log like any other working.
Sigil shoaling questions
What is sigil shoaling?
Shoaling is a chaos magic technique that hides one intent in a crowd of others until you lose track of which is which. You make several sigils together, charge them together and forget them together. One sitting, one forgetting.
How many intents can I put in a shoal?
Up to six. The tool stops you there. Each one needs at least one consonant, since vowels are cut during the reduction.
Why does the tool shuffle the glyphs?
So you can't tell which glyph belongs to which intent. Once you shuffle, the order is mixed and the sentences are hidden. Nothing left to track means nothing left to pick at.
Do I charge each glyph separately?
No. One timer covers the batch, one to five minutes, with your eyes soft on the shoal as a whole. Six separate charges would be six separate things to remember.
Is anything I write in Shoal sent or stored online?
No. It runs in your browser and your intents never leave the page. The receipt holds a glyph count and two dates. That's all it knows.
How do I check a shoal afterwards?
The receipt files to the Log with one check-back date for the batch. On that date, write down what moved and what stayed put. Count both.
