Outsiders of Ithia: The Eclipsed the Champions of Fates.

*The Celestials or Coelestis Exercitus, servants of the Gods are divided into Solnatus who serve the Seir’Ald, Orbisliberi who serve the Powers, and Astrumortus who serve the Fates. 

The Astrumortus of Zatolen and Mealis are the Eclipsed. These creatures have skin of gelatinous ichor of bleached white or pitch black or a mix of the two. They wear armor of silver, gold, black, and ruby with wings of fire and halos of crackling plasma. Those in service to Zatolen find their fire and bodies deepest black while those in service to Mealis are brightest of white. Those loyal to both Gods possess mixed features. Their ranks are easily marked by more intricate designs on their Halos.  

The Eclipsed are creatures of Power and Purity able to purify material to their base components, remove disease and foreign bodies from the living, summon fire that purges foreign magic, curses, and undeath, channel necrotic power, corrupt material binding two elements into an alloy, alter curses and diseases, and inflict pain. The Eclipsed are powerful known for their burning swords of Purity and Corruption. They can fly, glide, and hover. 

The Eclipsed are servants of Zatolen and or Mealis and serve as guardians of their planes and creatures of holy and unholy wrath for their divine servants. They guard holy palaces of the two gods and protect them from unwanted eyes.  

The Eclipsed are vulnerable to magic that causes confusion or inner conflict when not purely dedicated to one god. Much of their magical power stems from their fire and if extinguished, which is difficult, will be unable to draw upon their magic.  

The Eclipsed come in levels of power and status including Eternal, Solar, and Lunar.
