*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 Zatolen and Mealis are the Eclipsed. These creatures have gelatinous skin that is bleached white, pitch-black, or a mix of the two. They wear armor of silver, gold, black, and ruby with wings of colored fire and halos of plasma. Those in service to Zatolen are touched with fire and body of black, scarlet, and rust, while those in service to Mealis blaze white, silver, and gold. Those with split loyalties show their dedication by the percentage of loyalty reflected in their design. Ranks are marked by the intricacy of their halos, markings on their bones, and the number of wings. Arch-Coelestis sports six wings and three layers of halo.
The Eclipsed are creatures of Power and Purity, able to purify material to their base components, remove disease and foreign bodies from living bodies, summon fire that purges foreign magic, curses, and undeath, channel necrotic power, corrupt material binding elements into an alloy, alter the effects of curses and disease, and inflict pain. The Eclipsed are known for their powerful burning sword that radiates Purity and Corruption. They can fly, guide, and hover. They are extremely durable and can dim or brighten lights.
The Eclipsed are servants of Zatolen and Mealis, serving as guardians of their planes, creatures of holy and unholy wrath that descend to aid the summons of their clergy and guard the most holy and sacred of their places.
The Eclipsed are vulnerable to magic that can cause confusion or inner conflict when not purely dedicated to one of their patrons. Much of their magical power stems from their fire, and if extinguished, which is difficult, they will be unable to draw upon their magic.
The Eclipsed come in levels of power and status, including Eternal, Solar/Lunar, Bright/Shadow, and Comet.
The Eternals; Arch-Coelestis of the Eclipsed.
Ikas the Sadist: The Eternal of Bloodlust and Vengeance. He is divine wrath for those who defile sacred places and gives long, painful death to those who inflict terror and evils on the defenseless. He is crowned by three ringed halos bound to a horned cross of Zatolen.
Citan the Purifer: The Eternal of Purity, a Seeker of Sinners, and Inflamer of Mobs. He is crowned with three halos of fire and cupped golden hands behind him like a hood.
Obek the Guillotine: The Eternal of Execution, Purging, and Scouring. He is the removal of sin, the end of the heretic and sinner, he is the hand that scours its body of vice, and the ejection of impurities. He is marked by three halos bound to a twin-bladed axe blade and three orbiting skulls bound in lilies.
Toliver the Undeceived: The Eternal of Inquisition, Exposed Lies, and Broken Illusions. He is marked by three halos sporting a ring of burning eyes.
Markaris the Divided: The Eternal of Duality, Power, and Purity. A perfectly divided Eclipsed with three Halos backed by a sword, the arms of a scale hang off its guard in perfect balance.
