Creatures of Eden

== Magickal creatures of Eden ==
=== Centaurs ===
Centaurs are regarded as their own race because they are sentient, elegant warriors.
They were pushed out of their homeland in Europe several thousand years ago but since then
they have set up tribes on every continent except Antarctica. They are known as protector
spirits as well, there are many stories of people being saved by centaurs throughout history.
Although centaurs usually refrain from interacting with humans, to be friends with one or
welcomed into a tribe is a great honor. Centaurs usually hunt basilisks, lamia and sephiroth.
Satyrs are the happy, go-lucky servants of centaurs and are much more likely to interact
with humans. They often get supplies, food, ingredients or anything else the tribe deems
necessary. It’s not uncommon to see a satyr or two in public as people enjoy chatting with them.
=== Basilisk ===
Little known fact that the first basilisk was Nazir who was destined to lead the assassin
organization. Since then Nazir has had many offspring, most of which are hunted by centaurs. If
a basilisk lives long enough they can learn to communicate with humans. It is unknown how
long basilisks live considering Nazir is centuries old. Basilisks are extremely venomous and just
being in the presence of Nazir without prior training can prove lethal. Their breath can kill plants
& animals and their poison can even disintegrate bones. The venom is most commonly used by
the assassins of the Crimson Basilisk and can only be held in uniquely enchanted containers.
=== Phantom ===
Phantoms are interesting creatures because they are a cursed event rather than a
ghost-like figure. Unlike most perceived conceptions of ghosts, death is not a requirement for a
phantom to form. Phantoms are people who relive a cursed moment in history, which haunt
specific locations or buildings. If an extremely grim and drastic event occurs to a child; a
phantom may form in his place in the childhood home where this event transpired. Phantoms
are associated with a specific location and cannot leave that location. The event that caused the
phantom to appear repeats every day usually beginning at dusk. These phantoms can even
interact with anyone that enters the cursed threshold. During which they relive the important
details of that event while engaging with whoever is present. Phantoms can also teleport
anywhere in the afflicted area, so they don’t miss any important moments while reliving this
horrific event. Some people believe that phantoms are cursed creatures that can feel and simply
relive a terrible moment over and over and can be saved. Phantoms have also been known to
abduct and kill people that pass the threshold, even though their main purpose is to simply
serve as a cruel memory (usually dependent on the event unfolding). The only way to remove a
phantom is to either destroy the foundation of the afflicted area or use the Purge technique (only
goddesses can do this).
