Athrian

Basic Information

Anatomy

Athrian are rather bulky or thin, but always more than two meters high. Made of solid Aether they have no specific features that distinct female from male, as athrian is a genderless specie.

Biological Traits

Athrain are bound to live over for 500 years for a starter, yet, by laws of thermodynamics, the more they use their power, the more they reduce their lifespan, yet this does not stop them from going for at least 300 years old. Most of Athrian spend their life using little to none of their power.

Genetics and Reproduction

Athrian breed by temporarily fusion. Once the exchange of energy done, the energy lost is transformed into a crystal that will slowly grow to become sentient and form in the shape of an athrian.

Growth Rate & Stages

An athrian reach full size in more or less ten year, but actually can sculpt themselves at will. Maturity is often obtained at the same time depending on how the parent raise the child, if it does the human way, (slower) or by direct transmission of Athrian knowledge.

Athrian does not need any feeding, neither food nor drink. And sleep is only useful but not necessary.

Civilization and Culture

Major Organizations

Even if most of the athrians live in Meridia or other countries as mere citizens, some of them founded a real Arthrian state like the flying cities. Aegis being the first one, created by Emkar from the ruins of Riadrethan. Here, the complete art of Athria seem to resurrect from ashes, in the form of a direct democracy. The city split several times, creating new cities floating above the ocean. Their base is always the same, a huge crystal in the middle as heart, and then the main tower above it. Then the rest of the city develop itself around it at need. At the extremities, docks are found, to which are docked flying boats that can be manned only by Elzia.

the origin and exact reason of the fall, the event that make them appears on the world of Kray-Maven.

History

Athrians are fascinating, they are elementals, without a body of flesh and bones. Their shell is only magical dummies, similar to golem. Having no blood or organs, only one philosophical stone in place of heart, on the right of their chest. As they don’t have any organs, they are physically asexual, but still have male/female personality choice. Reproduction is made by exchange of magical energy between two partners, crystallizing in their hand in the shape of an egg of pure Aether, from which the new-born will develop. In their time on Athria, they had no physical form at all, evolving with their elemental properties. Yet nowadays these elemental form stays hidden under their shell that, if broken, will release pure elemental power, leaving their heart free. The Most powerful Athrian, having been given the title of Magister, are able to temporarily take their ancient form, or in the case of Eriathril and Enumbris, the form of a Calyster. If today Athrian rebuild their power and tiredness by sleeping, in Athria, sleep was a legend, and dream, another plane of existence, to the point they made it the base of their religion, the onirism. With time, they have found the power of onirism, that only one Athrian found how to use, making him a true god among them. Before the fall there was only five signs/ celan (fire), Sahime(water), Elzia(wind/lightning), Emkar(earth/rock/nature) and Calyster(pure aether) since the fall, Aether being too unstable, frail, they divided in two signs: Enumbris(shadow) and Eriathril(light), since then, all Calyster have disappeared, and are now a sort of extremely rare occurrence (one for a bilionth) of a birth when an Eriathril and an Enumbris make a child.
