She was far away in the land of her Lady's realm. So far from the Furies and Oraelia, frolicking with the animals she had come to love so greatly. They were her friends and that which she loved the most in her existence. From the smallest of mice to the largest of sky whales, they lived in the harmony she had created within the Garden Under the Sun. For what was a garden without life that could appreciate it?

The mortals would of course, for they were not able to not appreciate a realm where anything was possible. Where beauty was at every turn. Oh those pesky mortals. Always fighting and arguing. Never knowing that peace was so close to achieve yet so far away. For those who chose to dominate blocked every path.

But right now, Rhiona did not care about mortal woes. Instead she was busy creating something new in a small glade. She had made many animals and plants since she came to be but now she wanted to try something completely new.

Abstract of the mind but beautiful all the same. 

She outstretched her hands and then cupped them together, bringing them back up to her face. She breathed into them and a stream of light coalesced forth coming into a lively ball that wobbled back and forth. It tickled her and she giggled, giving it a scratch with a free finger. It pulsed and it's golden color turned pink as it's body changed shapes into symmetrical blobs that glowed with such beauty it took her breath away. Who knew something so small could contain the beauty of stars.

It was small, yes, but held promise. She set it down and watched as it hovered around a blade of tall grass. She could make it even more beautiful still. Rhiona then picked up a large rock and then crushed it within her hands so tight the pieces became hard. She then blew the rock onto the creature and it coated the vibrating light in a million crystals. It seemed to enjoy that as it's color changed to a lively gold again, it's shape becoming that of a disc as it flew around her head.

It reminded her of a shooting star. So she would name it, [color=goldenrod]”Lumin.”[/color] Upon hearing her voice, the lumin danced and in it’s excitement, it flew into her head, letting out a low buzz as it fell to the earthen floor. Rhiona sank to her knees beside it and gently scooped it up with a soft smile on her face. [color=goldenrod]”You must be careful, little one.”[/color]

The lumin buzzed, changing to a deep blue color. Rhiona looked it once over and blew upon it. It fluttered, changing its shape again to a circle. [color=goldenrod]”There, now if you hurt yourself, you can mend. Mend and give.”[/color] The lumin zipped off her hand and took flight around her head again. Rhiona giggled. 

She then grew the creature to the size of a royal joyf and multiplied its characteristics to create more of its kind. Around her they flew amongst the grasses and the trees, pairing off. Rhiona then blessed them with enhanced fertility so that they could make more of themselves. She did not know if they would be sent to Galbar eventually, but even creatures such as they could enjoy the company of one another.  

Satisfied with her newest creation, she sat down to hold one but felt… A presence that should not be. It was one of death and it had come to their realm. This could not stand!

Rhiona creates some critters then feels a presence of death. That’s it, that’s the post.

[hider=MP]
5/5
-3MP Lumins - These mastiff sized creatures are made of light and use millions of crystals as a frame to contain that light within. They can use these crystals to form mundane geometric shapes and patterns that are symmetrical. These forms are almost always changing, never keeping the same form for too long. Their crystals also refract their light within as they change colors depending upon their mood. They move around by hovering and flying.

Females of this species are slimmer than their male counterparts, who are larger in size. They breed by pairing for life and mingling their light together, placing a small bit of both into crystals that they also give from themselves for their offspring. They are biologically immortal as they do not need to eat, drink or sleep. They can be killed as much as anything else.

-2MP (Ability) Intrinsically Beautiful- To look upon a Lumin is to look upon a magnificent sight. Unlike other races with flesh and bone, Lumins are made of crystals that bring out true beauty in the forms of their color shifts and their ever changing forms.

-2DP (Ability) Ray of Life- They have been imbued with the essence of life upon their creation and are capable of spreading this life by use of their light. This ray shoots forth, letting plants grow and banishing that which is undead.

-2DP (Ability) Ray of Healing- They have also been imbued with the essence of healing and are naturally inclined to mend that which is broken. Not only can they heal each other, they can heal flesh and mortal like wounds, by use of their crystals.

-1DP (Blessing) Fertility- They are naturally slow to produce offspring and raise their young for many years as they grow slowly. But with this blessing they are capable of having a couple offspring per reproductive cycle and don't have many complications when doing so.
