Divines

Gracious entities that once gave the most precious gift to humanity; the ability to live and strive as a unified civilization.

Plenty of scriptures, forms of arts and even influenced dreams have attempted to visualise what the Divines would look like. Many people have come to a general understanding and agreement as to how to portray them, but it’s still impossible to this day to create an accurate representation. They are considered merciful beings, and even thought They are not actively interacting with Their creations, some humans still worship and respect Them more than they worship the Eterna.

Eterna

After the Dirantheal Crisis in 3502 aR, the Eterna were made to cure the damage that had been done to both humanity’s status and Ilah’s lands. They are human-hybrid beings made from Ilah’s essence on Ridjah, where they get developed in crystals. Once they’re born, they train to improve their basic skills and after a few months to years, they get sent to one of the other countries to serve their purpose.

They all have pitch black hair and white luminescent eyes with turquoise pupils. They have the ability to teleport fair amounts of distances by black mist. Each Eterna has their own signature weapon made from pure cosmic energy which they can conjure from the void parts on their bodies, which are mostly their lower arms and legs. These parts are immune to any form of damage, however, they are not immortal – despite them being able to live for thousands of years.

Eterna usually serve to protect humans against any influence of the Daemar, but it happens often enough for some Eterna to let their human side take over, fall in love and settle like their protégees. They cannot reproduce however, since they are still considered holy beings, but they are allowed to live their lives like humans do.

Daemar

The demons from unknown origins, causing the terrors which lead to the Dirantheal Crisis. They are invisible to the naked eye, and therefore considered by people to be manifestations of human flaws, turning unfortunate victims into their worst selves. Not much else is known about them, other than they drag a human down with them each time a Daemar is eliminated.

What they look like is only known to Eterna, but they spare the visual details to any human asking about them. Once they do get to know, or worse, see a Daemar with their own eyes, they go mad.

Humans

Humans are Ilah's creation, and have been walking on His world for over ten thousand years. Blessed by the gift of life, they honor the lands under the guidance of the Eterna. They have numerous and rich cultures, native to each settlement they call their homes. While most of them live in cities, there are plenty of smaller villages and hamlets occupied, for those who desire a life of solitude.

Over the centuries, their societies blossomed, developping additional skills such as poetry and the arts to bring themselves closer to their Gods.

Elesraen

The Elesraen are a fair folk, rumored to have first existed on Ilah not long after humans were created. Not even Eterna know how they came to exist. They’re native to Aemin and – in the past – to Dirantheal as well. Asro and Emoraen in Aemin are the only settlements which have pureblood Elesraen. They all have blue eyes, accentuated with star-like sparkles and tanned skin. A key feature to their physical appearance is their necks, which are noticeable longer than average. While shades of brown hair is mostly common, some tribes in Asro have platinum to white hair.

While they show great affinity with the planet and what’s beyond, they don’t worship Ilah like humans do. They do however, acknowledge Him as a deity and His influential presence in the world.
