The Mythicals: Mystics & Power
The Mythicals are beings from before time itself. They are not mortal, and they are not truly divine. They exist outside of time, untouched by The Halvening or any mortal reckoning. Spirits, elementals, and great beasts are counted among their number, but their true forms and purposes remain shrouded in mystery.
- Elders: The oldest and most powerful Mythicals, guiding the rest with wisdom that spans ages. Their timeless existence allows them to see beyond the present, making their guidance both revered and feared. They are the keepers of ancient secrets, their knowledge as deep as the stars themselves.
- Titans: Legendary creatures of immense power, embodying the raw forces of the old world. Some guard hidden Celestials, while others roam the wilds, shaping the land and inspiring awe or fear in all who encounter them. Their motives remain shrouded in mystery, as they operate on a scale beyond mortal comprehension.
- Elementals: Beings who embody and command the world's elements and magical forces. Their actions are often unpredictable, reflecting the chaotic nature of the elements they represent. They are believed to have been drawn to the Celestials' power, their essence intertwined with the magic that flows through the realm.
- Custodians: Guardians of lost knowledge and hidden Celestials. They protect sacred sites and artifacts, ensuring that dangerous secrets do not fall into the wrong hands. Their dedication to preserving the past makes them both protectors and enigmas, as their true intentions are rarely revealed.
- Seers: Those who glimpse the past and future, offering wisdom and warnings. Their visions, often tied to the cycles of the Celestials, help guide the Mythicals and others who seek their counsel. Their insights are both a blessing and a curse, as they often speak in riddles that few can decipher.
The Mythicals rely on the old magic, the pure power that flowed through the realm before The Halvening. Their magic is powerful but requires deep understanding and respect for the realm's natural laws. While The Halvening altered the fabric of magic, the Mythicals remained largely untouched, their ancient powers still intact. Their existence allows them to wield magic in ways that mortals cannot fathom, making them both revered and feared. Their approach is traditional, mysterious, and deeply connected to the realm's original magic and the fate of the Celestials.
It is said that the Mythicals only became known to the realm after the Celestials arrived. Some whisper that the Celestials awakened them, or that their presence somehow revealed the Mythicals to the world. Others believe the Mythicals were always there, hidden in the shadows, waiting for the Celestials to return. Whatever the truth, their sudden emergence has left many wondering if they are allies, guardians, or something far more enigmatic.
To encounter a Mythical is to brush against the eternal. They are immortal, ageless, and beyond the reach of ordinary understanding. Their presence is a reminder that the realm's deepest mysteries remain unsolved, and that some secrets are older than history itself.
