The Demis

Cennad

Servants of Zin Aduro, beings of pure energy. They were very much akin in appearance to angels, though most of them seldom take a substantial form; it is difficult for them, and there is generally no need. They generally act as messengers for the Sun god. Zin once had three major Cennad that acted as his generals after a sort and executors of his will. These three were surveyors of Rachma and upheld what law there was in the Age of Gods. All three are now Fallen. The cennad known now as The Earthwalker was the de facto leader of the Three and upheld the Mind of the world. Szives Latu, the only sister, upheld the Soul. Haragta Loko oversaw the Body.

Stars

The same stars that watch over the night sky of Rachma. Created, like the Cennad, by a combination of the power of Zin Aduro and Nosbalada. They watch over Rachma once Zin and the Cennad have gone to sleep and report all that they see to Nosbalada. Act as witnesses. The brightest stars take human-like shapes. The most famous of the stars is, of course, Alethia, the fallen star who waits for the Earthwalker.

The Loa

Servants of the Death gods. They wander unseen through Rachma and escort many to their Trials. Usually they are a small horde of those whose souls were strong enough and resisted their trials for whatever reason. act somewhat as liasons between the Deaths and humans. They help oversee the Renewal process and guide reforged Souls to their new forms.

Mostly this is good for checking that we have everything, like Mixba'al, the Rachmian presence of Aether, which I had TOTALLY forgotten that we named. Obviously some of this has changed over time, and some of this info is already at the deities' respective pages. Like I said, notes. Anniezard 07:06, September 4, 2010 (UTC)
