The planet evolved a dominant sentient being that looks and behaves much like how Earth 
Humans do. However, when the 
Celestials came, they altered a select few humans, creating 
Immortals whose bodies are alive with 
Magic. The 
Starborne are infused with one or two types of 
Trigram Magic, while the 
Windborne are infused with one or two types of 
Phase Magic, and have the ability to summon wings. The Celestials’ work to imbue the land with magic also had a side effect of allowing non-biological 
Spirits to enter and engage with the material realm.

Mortal Beings
A being whose body ages and decays with time. Has a healthy age range up to 75 years, but can reach up to 120 years with luck and good health. Heals slowly, susceptible to disease.
Humans
Immortal Beings
A being whose body is infused with Magic. This allows them to age to maturity, and then continue to age so slowly that their finite limit is unknown. They heal quickly, are immune to disease, and only seem to die from injuries incompatible with life.
Celestials
Immensely powerful beings. They made radical changes to the 
Peninsula of Harmura and gave the world access to Magic. Their current whereabouts and level of involvement are unknown. Some believe they still watch and answer prayers, while others believe they left long ago to continue their experiments elsewhere.
Starborne
They are immediately distinct from Humans by their eye color. Their magic creates brightly colored, crystalline irises, as well as hair and nail colors not found in humans.
Tradition states that only sixteen were originally created by the Celestials, but their magic is hereditary and they have grown in number over the generations. They are most commonly found in 
Harmura and Shinra, but have also radiated outwards into the Continental Mainland.
Their magic pushes them towards certain instinctive behaviors, creating eight primary types of Starborne that have access to just one Trigram Magic. Those who have access to two show blended instincts that reflect their hexagrammatic makeup.
Ground Starborne
They build trust slowly through consistency, duty, and keeping promises. They prefer stability over intensity, and they show care by maintaining what already works.
Thunder Starborne
They choose boldly, test each other openly, and commit fast when they trust the direction. They treat conflict as proof of strength, but they cannot stand hesitation or public betrayal.
Mountain Starborne
They take everything in first, staying quiet while they watch and process. When they finally speak or act, it is firm and final, and their loyalty runs deep once someone is truly “n.”
Blaze Starborne
They amplify each other’s emotions, spreading excitement, anger, and inspiration like wildfire. They crave intensity and visible transformation, moving fast in love, loyalty, and conflict.
Abyss Starborne
They hold back at first, watching quietly and letting others reveal themselves before deciding what anything means. When they act, it is calm and inevitable, and their trust runs deep for the few who can handle silence and secrets.
Lake Starborne
They build relationships through honest exchange, where care and belonging come with clear boundaries and real accountability. They prize safe closeness that invites vulnerability without letting confusion or charm excuse harm.
Wind Starborne
They think in networks, bonding through connection, information flow, and steady influence rather than dramatic declarations. Love looks like weaving someone into routines and contacts, while conflict and accountability often show up as quiet loss of access and social pathways.
Tornado Starborne
They bond through shared motion and stress, respecting those who can pivot fast without clinging. They thrive in volatility, treating mistakes as something to correct immediately and intimacy as the ability to adapt together.
Windborne
When their wings are folded into the , Windborne are not immediately distinct from Humans. However, upon closer inspection, their eye color is slightly inhuman, and their hair carries an unnatural tint.
Tradition states that only sixty-four were originally created by the Celestials, but since their magic is hereditary, they have grown in number over the generations. They are most commonly found in Harmura and Shinra, but have also radiated outwards into the Continental Mainland.
Their magic pushes them towards certain instinctive behaviors, creating five primary types of Windborne that have access to just one Phase Magic. Those who have access to two show blended instincts that reflect their magical makeup.

Spirits
An entity that did not evolve in the material realm and does not have biology like the planet’s flora or fauna. Spirits vary widely in appearance and in degrees of sentience.
They are representations of concepts, places, events, or things. Some are bound to a location, while others may freely roam. They can enter and leave the at will, allowing them to vanish from material existence. They are almost exclusively found in Harmura.
Tradition states that the Celestials opened a way for Spirits to manifest in the material realm when they created the .
Spirit-Human Hybrids
Spirit-Human HybridsIt is rare, but Spirits can impregnate a human woman, with or without consent. The resulting child is a biological humanoid shaped by the spirit progenitor. All Spirit-Human Hybrids are unique, sexless, and infertile. They are almost exclusively found in Harmura.
These spirit hybrids can enter and leave the at will, but it requires more concentration than it does for Spirits. They have abilities that are outside the normal scope of Trigram Magic and Phase Magic.
Spirit Symbionts
Spirit SymbiontsSome Spirits can form a rare symbiotic or parasitic attachment to Immortals. This relationship alters the immortal’s powers and can even introduce abilities that are outside the normal scope of Trigram Magic and Phase Magic. These beings are almost exclusively found in Harmura.
