Heirloom Star: Stellar Adventure

**Heirloom Star** (エアルーム・スター ステラ・アドベンチャー *Earūmu Sutā Sutera Adobenchā*), or simply *Heirloom Star* is a fanmade magical girl series. A prose fiction novel adaptation is also being planned for a future release.

## Plot Synopsis

Lampetia, a planet inhabited by personified stars and constellations created by goddesses Corona Austrina and Corona Borealis, is engulfed in war after Corona Austrina stages an uprising to overthrow her lover and fellow deity. Using the power of fear mongering to execute her rebellion, she enlists the embodiments of constellations from the La Caille family as her retinue, the Cirque du Peur, to spread the effects of fear across the planet and combat the forces that stand against them for Corona Borealis' behalf. Just when the Cirque du Peur's victory seemed certain, a young woman is summoned from Earth and granted protection from the constellation Lepus to become a warrior and face the epidemic of fear. After a difficult battle, Starlight Lepus is able to incapacitate the Cirque du Peur in a state of petrification, seemingly ending their reign of terror.

However, seventeen years later, as their wounds heal, the Cirque de Peur members are awakening one by one to finish what they began and extend their jurisdiction to Earth, and Starlight Lepus is unable and unwilling to fight. A new hero must be chosen, and high school student Yumemi Seiun is called upon to combat the Cirque du Peur and bring peace to Earth and Lampetia.

### Other Characters

* **Starlight Lepus (スターライト・リパス *Sutāraito Ripasu*)**
	+ Distinct from Yumemi's constellation persona, Lepus as she is originally manifested is a magical girl sent from Earth to resolve the epidemic of fear in Lampetia. Since then she has attempted to completely abandon her heroic identity, but still makes rare, fleeting appearances to protect Yumemi from danger.

* **Corona Borealis (コロナ ボレアリス *Korona Borearisu*)**
	+ The creator of Lampetia alongside Corona Austrina and her former lover. Like Austrina, she has the ability to create humanoid embodiments of the stars and constellations, and is missed dearly by many of her subjects. She is currently imprisoned by Corona Austrina inside her body, rendered to a bodiless state and her power scattered away from her.
* **Navi ( ナビー *Nabi*)**
	+ A girl from Lampetia who enlists Yumemi's help to save Lampetia and Earth in the original Lepus' stead. Her powers have significantly weakened since the first outbreak on Lampetia, and her abilities amplify as Yumemi wins more battles.
* **Megumi Seiun (星雲 巡美 *Seiun Megumi*)**
	+ Yumemi's mother. A strict older woman with a constant tired look on her face, she spends most of her time at home in her bedroom and almost no time cultivating a relationship with her daughter.
