STARLINGS

STARLINGS : Disclaimer and Notice!

STARLINGS are an open species! My intention when I created them was for people to play in my universe, but also be able to recreate the character in others! With their Starfallen visages, and powers, I had hoped others would feel like they could work in my universe while still being able to convert them over to others! Everything is open, but there are some things that are canon based on what im making for the story/lore, but that doesn't mean you can't run with it and have fun! I WANT you to create your own and explore the ideas and machinations i've come up with to inspire you to do your own stories, art, and more! If you have any questions, find me on bluesky under StevieNix!

Also note: Anyone can come up with their own class! The ones I create are simply a blueprint! I'd love for more people to "discover" new ones! If allowed, those could become canon too! :D

Rules:

You can create your own or adopt from me!
Even if you adopt from me, you can change your adopt however you please and even reshape it to fit in other worlds/settings/games!
You're welcome to create your own classes! What i've made are considered blueprints! Though your class might not be "canon", if you decide to share it, it could be!
Even with the rules on MUSES and the Astralux weapons, you're welcome to explore and experiment!
Starlings can be ANY gender!! I only do ladies cause im bias lol. I also have so many bases for individual classes for the "dolls" they're all female gender, but can be converted to ANY gender by the adoptee whenever they want or if they want! Gender is not a barrier! If you want to create your own, any and all genders are welcome

A round emblem with a dark blue background. on the top is a large star and over that is four wings and a smaller star. to the right of that is a full flag in a similar motif, and holding it in frame is a Celestrix (Celestial Phoenix)

Originating from the Pleiades, these elves have all been blessed by the stars themselves; The 7 Sisters.

Oracles on their home-world Atlantis, these celestial elves ascended from the Pleiades, would be named Starlings.

They would be tasked by Eris to map the cosmos. Each Sister of the Pleiades brings with her a different blessing, but all Starlings were granted the ability to see the lines between constellations. It was the basis of constellations that they made their maps.

As Celestial Mapmakers to start, their role would evolve, along with the discovery of what all their powers could do.

On winged feet they sped through the celestial space leaving cosmic dust and starfyre. The much larger wings on their backs were similar to that of a Starling bird. Black/Darker Colors and speckled like an egg on top, and white as starlight on the underside. Their wings were sprinkled with stardust, and trailed behind in their wake of starfyre, sometimes catching fire again.

Initially cosmic cartographers, their role evolved as they encountered diverse beings.

Starlings bond with a special star that holds a Celestrix. This bond gives them wings to travel and the ability to make their starfyre into a thread that connects the stars to make Constellations. They can also see the feint lines connecting the stars before becoming constellations! These are then mapped and brought back to Atlantis for archival purposes.

Starlings / Fallen Starling / Starfallen / Kindred
*Starlings - transform through a sacred bond with a star, which reveals their heart for their celestial journey.

Roles: Starlings can have several different roles based on their preferred class that they then utilize on different planets, but mostly on Eonid where the society evolves around them now. They can serve as guards, knights, nightgazers, and more and even take these practices into other worlds to use when needed! They can also volunteer to escort a Starcatcher/ Wishmaker on fulfilling their catered wish that they craft when taken to the Constellatte! Some of them will even go to the new Academy to learn new classes and have up to 4 to choose from! Others might make a living off of the fairegrounds and contests on the moon of Minastra!

*Fallen Starlings- deriving power from falling stars, possess similar abilities but are considered "dolls" in that they are dark matter and nebulae on the inside.

Roles: Fallen Starlings were created in order to escort Starcatchers on their crafted wish! A Starcatcher is someone who wishes on a Fallen Star, and is transported by the Magic Mists, to the Constellatte! There they are given a menu of worlds and options in order to craft a wish! These wishes usually involve adventure and treasure! After the wish is fulfilled, Starcatchers will often enlist their Fallen Starlings in tournaments and contests, but some will attain another wish and allow their Fallen Starling to evolve into a full on Starling!

*Starfallen - Elves born on Eonid OR Disguises Starlings use on other planets/realms.

*Kindred - Starling Elves with animal attributes and markings

MAGIC AND ELEMENTS

Every Starling is awakened with their own base element + Starfyre. Starfyre is the celestial energy they inherit from their Celestrix (Celestial Phoenix). This power "ignites" their element, allows them to transform the magic metal Mercitite, and see the lines that connect constellations by fueling their starsight.

A Starling can inherit and work with more than one element though! Sometimes individually, but other times, they'll even combine elements to make a new one and even new classes!

Ways a Starling can discover and inherit new elements:
- Their base element when they ascend/awaken
- Their Constellation / Zodiac
- One or more of the elements ruled over by their pledged Pleiades

All of these can play a part in identifying a Starlings powers, but are not limited! (Think Sailor Moon meets D&D classes). The only limit is your imagination! :D See below for Elements and Constellations!
