Ceraste
The Ceraste (singular - Cerast) are a species of magickal humanoid that resides in an empire on the astral called Mirabila. Mirabila has a very similar cultural and social climate to Ancient Rome. The Ceraste look similar to humans, and thus can have a variety of skin tones, hair colors, and eye colors, but they all have horns that begin growing shortly after a Cerast is born and slowly grow until the individual hits puberty. The horns can take all sorts of shapes or sizes, and a Cerast can have two or four horns, but traditionally, females tend to have more horns, while males tend to have bigger horns. Despite their somewhat demonic appearance, Ceraste tend to span the spectrum of Gray Arts, with some being lighter and some being darker, but very few dip any lower or rise any higher than very light gray or very dark gray.
Mirabila is a large empire that spans a wide swathe of the astral. That said, though Mirabila has a huge military that is constantly conquering and assimilating new land into the empire, they have even more civilians who are not involved in war. They have farmers, merchants, entertainers, craftspeople, priests and priestesses, nobility, servants, and so on. Basically, if you could find someone with that profession in the Roman Empire, you can find someone with that profession in Mirabila. Different Ceraste have different personalities, but for the most part, they are very proud and confident beings who have great pride in where they came from. They may be a bit arrogant, but make no mistake, one of the greatest virtues of the Ceraste is loyalty, both to their empire and to their friends. If you befriend a Cerast, you will make a friend for life, and they will defend you to their last breath in whatever ways they can. Ceraste are also naturally curious, and love to travel beyond the bounds of Mirabila, so there's a good chance you may run into Ceraste in other large cities in the astral. As an emissary from this plane to Mirabila, I have been given express permission by the Imperator of Mirabila to find companions for Cerast who are interested in traveling to another plane. As they are living entities, they may not be by your side constantly, but should you desperately need them, they will be there for you. |
