Terminology


Asterria -  The name of the world similar to Earth (just several times bigger to accommodate the Celestials lol). It's a fantasy setting.

Barrier - Celestials are connected to the life force, however theirs are much more powerful than those living in the world. The dead body of a Celestial has an immense amount of flow that it can almost create life around it, almost for a lifetime.

Celestials - Creatures of various sizes that come from the Sky. Humanity doesn't know who or what they are or where they came from. When they die, their body falls on the world below, creating a shooting star/ comet effect. People in the world below use the body for resources/ shelter.

  • Major Celestials - COLOSSAL beasts. Only a few fell on the earth when the Devoured Sun Era started, and they're the beasts that created the major cities
  • Minor Celestials - not as big as the Major Class, but not as small as the Dwarf Class. Their bodies are typically big enough to host a small town. They're also typically used as a "major resource point", as in anyone from the cities/ towns are able to gather various resources there if they choose to.
  • Dwarf Celestials - Smaller than Minor Class, but they're still bigger than the average city block. Sometimes, if they're small enough, people can try to carry it back to their respective cities/ towns for better safety when harvesting.

Revitia- The life force of the Universe. It flows through all living things, including the elements that live in the world. Those who can connect to the flow are able to manipulate it, granting them the ability of "magic". For more information on the magic and how it works, see this page.

Star Seekers (Seekers) - The most dangerous job, but also the most important and valuable. These people are tasked to go out to find the Celestials the Watchers found and bring back the materials from the bodies.

Morcas (pl. Morcai) - Creatures that are forcefully severed from the flow of Revitia. But without the flow, the creatures mutate and turn into powerful monsters. Those creatures are neither "alive" or "dead", just simply in the void itself. They are able to feed on the pure flow of Revitia itself, granting them greater strength. During the Devoured Sun, those monsters advanced in strength and numbers. For more information on them, see this page.

Celestial Watchers (Watchers) - People assigned the task to watch the sky for new Celestials that fall. They try to keep track and calculate the nearest bodies to send out the Seekers.
