Writing Worlds with Words

Outsiders of Ithia: The Mirror-Rakes a Offered Hand.

*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 Solnatus of Tal Seir are the Mirror-Rakes. The Mirror-Rakes are suave, humanoid in shadowy suits, eyes like distant stars on the skin of night-sky blue. They are strangely handsome; stained with a certain degree of mournful tragedy. Their fingertips have retractable, glass-like claws.  

The Mirror-Rakes are strong, highly durable, and their glass claws can cut through all but the heaviest armor. Their claws rend more than flesh, strike deeper than skin, tear at mental stability, wound the spirit. They avoid violence when able, but will rend and tear those who threaten them or their master’s goals. 

Mirror-Rakes are creatures tasked by Tal Seir to seek out those in pain, lost, covered in wounds of soul and mind, and give them company. Comfort. They are an ear to those ready to give up on the world, a hand to comfort those who rarely feel such warmth; they are the presence when one feels as if they’ll be forever alone.  

Mirror-Rakes come in ranks of Status and Power. Boulevardier, Rake, Dandy, and Fop.
