## Overview

**Castor** is a King of Angels of the Heaven Pathway possessing two Sequence 1 Characteristics. "He" is the son of Paragon and Flegrea, and step-brother to Antigonius, Amanises and Mother of the Sky. "He" was born in the 2nd Epoch, making "Him" one of the oldest figures still alive on Earth. At the time of "His" birth, Castor was a Sequence 2.

Castor is an ardent believer of the Golden Order, though not quite to the point of zealotry. "He" is also a Beyonder supremist and sees all mortals as filth or lower beings. Due to "His" heritage and belonging to the extremely rare Heaven Pathway, Castor holds "Himself" in very high regard. Thanks to being the son of Paragon and Flegrea, Castor has the powers of three Pathways: Heaven, Star and even the incompatible Darkness Pathway. This makes "Him" incredibly dangerous, as "He" has many strange and unique powers.

Castor holds a deep grudge against everyone who caused the fall of Flegrea: this includes Adam/the Ancient Sun God, Lilith, Amanises and Antigonius.

Castor served as a Cardinal for the Church of Heaven and an Envoy in the Cult of Kosmos, serving Trinia Saint-Gold in both occasions. Castor was a major obstacle for foes of the Cult, serving as one of its staunchest defenders and being incredibly active during "His" time on Earth. Multiple high-case missions were bestowed on "Him" to complete, putting "Him" at odds with other Angels frequently.

When Lazarus Asmodeus was formed, "He" gifted Castor two Sequence 1 Characteristics, thus making "Him" a King of Angels. Castor then left Earth with Lazarus Asmodeus.

## Appearance

Castor is a Caucasian male with splendid gold hair, tied in a braid that falls to the small of "His" back. "he" has eyes of gentle gold and "his" skin is a caramel white.

On duty, Castor wears a gold mask that covers the upper half of "His" face with a giant opal imbedded over the eyes. A golden gauntlet ending in claws is on "His" right arm while a glove that goes to the elbow is on "His" left. A cloak covers "His" head and "he" wears a simple shirt with a gold chest area.

## Personality

Castor is a very haughty and arrogant person. Being born as a complete Mythical Creature, "He" never had any innate humanity and disassociates "Himself" from Humanity as a whole. Castor believes all non-Beyonders are worthless trash and should be either enslaved or exterminated. This view originates from "His" origin: Castor was born in the 2nd Epoch, where crazy Gods ruled as insane tyrants and Humans were cattle. A such, Castor feels absolutely zero empathy or guilt when massacring thousands of civilians.

As the son of Flegrea, a God of 2 Pathways and Paragon, a King of Angels from the rare Star Pathway, Castor views "Himself" as unique and special compared to all other life-forms on Earth. "He" also looks down on all others due to being from the Heaven Pathway, which installs cool disdain in its Beyonders. In that regard, Castor is similar to Gilgamesh in "His" arrogance.

Castor is a fervent follower of the Golden Order and prays at the Sovereign's altar daily. "He" will stand for no disrespect and will kill anyone that insults the Sovereign in the slightest, even "His" own subordinates and partners.

Castor does have a soft side: "His" mother and sister. Castor worries for Paragon and is eager to lighten "Her" burden. Furthermore, "He" is desperate for "Her" approval and strives to make "Her" proud. This has turned Castor into a completionist who **must** succeed in every task "He" is given. Castor also has incestuous feelings for "His" twin sister Pollux and the two are lovers. Pollux being harmed is one of the few things that can distract Castor and make "Him" lose "His" composure. In the words of Gilgamesh: "Pollux is 'His' greatest weakness and downfall".

## History

Born from the unlikely union of Paragon and Flegrea in the 2nd Epoch, Castor and "His" twin sister Pollux were both stillborn due to conflicting Pathways of Darkness and Star. Paragon brought the twins to the sleeping Trinia and manipulated "His" portion of the Crucible to resuscitate the twins. This switched Castor from Star to Heaven, though "He" also gained the powers of a Sequence 2 from the Darkness Pathway.

As a child, Castor was raised alongside "His" step-siblings: Antigonius, Amanises and Mother of the Sky. As the youngest and very different from the rest, Castor was bullied and isolated from the others. Pollux however, was loved and adored for "Her" beauty and charm by the others. Castor thus grew hateful of "His" siblings and sought to surpass "Them". Castor took after "His" mother and became "civilised", more so than "His" barbaric siblings. This drew further ire form the others, but also inspired the haughty Antigonius to do the same.

Growing up, Paragon would often tell "Her" son that one day, "He" would inherit Flegrea's Kingdom and that "He" was a 'Prince of Darkness'. When Castor asked "Her" how, as "He" knew Flegrea would never step down, Paragon simply mention that a cult was on the rise within the Giant King's Court and not even Gods are immortal. "She" then told Castor that the one that survives is not the strongest, fastest or scariest, but the most adaptive and versatile. "She" warned "Him" to always watch the current and flow with it, lest "He" be swept away instead.

Castor watched in horror as "His" father was struck down, but said horror soon turned to rage upon witnesses "His" siblings steal Flegrea's Authorities. Castor swore revenge on those responsible (The Ancient Sun God and Lilith) and also the "traitors" (Amanises, Antigonius, Mother of the Sky and Salinger). With the Ancient Sun God reclaiming all the God Almighty Authorities, Castor was forced to bury "His" anger and join the Sun God under Paragon and Gilgamesh.

## 3rd Epoch

Castor and Pollux were raised by Paragon and, at times, by "Her" subordinates. Due to the nature of the Star Pathway, Paragon could never truly express "Her" love for the children, despite the presence of it. This lead Castor to desire "Her" affection and approval more than anything in the world. It was also during this time that Castor entered an incestuous relationship with "His" twin sister Pollux. partly due to Convergence and partly due to being each others emotional anchors.

Castor spent most of "His" days in the Golden Capital and lived a sheltered life there. "He" was taught many things, such as history and qualities of governing. However, "He" lacked much societal knowledge, due to being raised purely be teachers and not interacting with others. This left Castor ignorant of several mater others consider "mundane" or common and also skewered "His" sense of right and wrong. All in all, Castor's upbringing left "Him" dysfunctional within a society with a longing for connections and familial love.

When Paragon went on conquests, "She" would occasionally bring Castor and Pollux along too. Castor apparently gained "His" first kill on one such mission: a Sequence 4 that had lost control. Castor described killing him as "merciful, yet undeniably disgusting" and gained a dislike for personally killing others, preferring to stain someone else's hands instead. Castor also discovered "He" had germaphobia after stabbing "His" hand through a woman's chest.

Castor was left ignorant of matters such as Rose Redemption and the Ancient Sun God's corruption, though "His" sister Pollux managed to piece certain things together on "Her" own. Castor was thus shocked and appalled following the "betrayal" and murder of the Sun God, especially since "His" mother and teachers (Gilgamesh and Trinia) partook in it. It would only be several decades later that Castor discovered the truth surrounding the matter. At the time however, the act of "betrayal" made "Him" further despise Amanises and Salinger, who were participants.

Castor stayed inside the Golden Capital during the Cataclysm and remained there for several centuries with "His" family and associates.

## 4th Epoch

Castor emerged after the Cataclysm and joined the Balam Empire after "His" mother, despite "His" furious personal disagreements. Due to "His" grudge towards Salinger, Castor did not enjoy "His" time in Balam and instead snuck out repeatedly to cause trouble or explore the Northern Continent. Castor would frequently run away to Trinia or Gilgamesh, who would humour "Him" by giving a tour of Solomon's Empire. It was here that Castor met True Creator and learnt the truth about the fall of the Ancient Sun God. "His" anger towards Medici, Salinger and the others subsided, though "He" still did not forgive Amanises and Earth Mother. Likewise, Castor was antagonistic towards Antigonius too.

Castor gained a rivalry with Azik Eggers, the son of Salinger, and would repeatedly challenge "Him" to all manner of contests. Despite winning a fair few, Castor would never acquire an overwhelming victory, leaving "Him" unsatisfied at all times. It was around this time that Castor was properly introduced to the Golden Order and told of "His" Void Land heritage, along with "His" connection to the Crucible. Seen as a miracle by Miquella (who fully expected Castor to die) "He" met the Empyrean several times through Projections. Castor would then receive Miquella's Blessing and the authority to command a small piece of the Crucible as "His" own. This further inflated Castor's ego yet also made the burden on "Him" increase, as Castor desired to live up to Miquella's expectations too.

## War of the Four Emperors

When war broke out between Solomon, Tudor and Trunsoest, Salinger joined the fight too. Castor took part in several small or medium scaled skirmishes and gained experience on the battlefield. A skilled warrior despite "His" young age and lack of training, Castor primarily fought Saints or Mid-Sequence Beyonders. According to "Himself", Castor killed 30 Demigods over the course of the War, and specifically targeted the forces of Evernight, Earth Mother and Antigonius.

Castor was present on the battlefield when Tudor, Trunsoest and Solomon killed each other and witnessed Gilgamesh steal the Black Emperor Uniqueness, along with Trinia's failed attempt to do the same to the Justiciar Uniqueness. Castor delivered the Red Priest Uniqueness to Salinger alongside Paragon.

After the War ended and the Orthodox Gods hunted down the enemy Angel Houses, Castor got permission from Gilgamesh (who was looting all the Houses) to deal with Antigonius. However, by the time "He" arrived, the King of Angels had already been sealed by Evernight. Castor thus turned "His" attention to Antigonius' House, purging it and almost single-handedly erasing it. Castor also took part in the annihilation of the Nation of Evernight, much to the amusement of Gilgamesh as "He" cooperated with Evernight during this.

Castor spend the next century in Balam with "His" family, as Salinger attempted to digest the Red Priest Uniqueness.

## Pale Era

Castor emerged when Salinger went mad and transformed into **Pale Death** after failing to accommodate the Red Priest Uniqueness. Working in tandem with Primordial Demoness, Castor received permission to settle "His" grudge with "His" step-sister once and for all. Alongside "His" twin sister, Castor cut down many Beyonders of the Darkness and Twilight Pathway and even killed an Angel from each Pathway. Castor then used "Their" Characteristics to forge Sealed Artefacts for "Himself" as a trophy.

Castor attempted to assist Trinia in unsealing True Creator but the plot still failed and Trinia suffered a serious backlash, causing "Him" to retreat for the rest of the Epoch.

Castor was on the battlefield that made Paragon retreat and saw Azik Eggers be slain. Being pushed back to Balam, Castor desired to stay and fight but was forced by Paragon to retreat with Gilgamesh. "He" thus missed Paragon's last stand and consequent sealing by the Orthodox Gods. Castor personally saw Pale Death die and Cheek be beaten back too. Castor and Pollux were then taken by Gilgamesh to the Golden Capital in the Forsaken Land of Gods for the remainder of the Pale Era.

Castor helped Gilgamesh in "His" Apotheosis Ritual by calming the Heaven and Star Uniqueness and also using "His" portion of the Crucible. Gilgamesh just barely completed the Ritual and altered history to erase "Himself".

## 5th Epoch

Castor emerged with Gilgamesh, Trinia and Paragon after both Adam and The Fool entered "Their" slumbers. Castor was a founding member of the Cult of Kosmos and Church of Heaven, becoming a Cardinal in the latter. Castor was tasked with dealing with fellow Angels or events with corresponding strength, and led the Faith of Kosmos when Trinia was not available. Using "His" authority, Castor sought out individuals Corrupted by Outer Deities and purged them. Castor also investigated the Transmigrators and even killed a few of them.

Castor engaged in several scuffles with the Churches and the Tarot Club by "His" involvement in matters about the Apocalypse (hunting Corrupted and Transmigrators) and fought Arianna and Alger Wilson and one point. "He" also faced off against Azik Eggers and was defeated, much to "His" great annoyance. One of Castor's first big missions was the acquirement of the City of Imagination Liveseyd and Ankewhelt's remnant consciousness within. Castor and Pollux spent several weeks attempting to break open the entrance top the Chaos Sea within Liveseyd, but failed in all approaches

When Audrey Hall, Hermes, Susie and Leonard Mitchell entered Liveseyd to investigate the foreign influence, a fight broke out between the Angels. Castor managed to hold "Them" off for a time but was forced to retreat and activate "Plan B", which was Trinia swallowing Liveseyd whole, Corruption and all. The mission was thus barely considered a pass and Castor was punished by Gilgamesh for nearly revealing the identify of the Cult.

## Church of Heaven

Castor spent the next several months helping Trinia manage the Church of Heaven, spreading small congregations in Intis and Sonia Island. Castor was also placed in charge of Cult operations in Trier alongside Julius Kingsly. During this time "He" crossed paths with Lumian Lee and identified the mark of The Fool and Circle of Inevitability on him. Despite this obvious irregularity, Castor ignored Lumian due to his low Sequence and merely reported it to Kingsly, who passed it on to Gilgamesh.

When Church of Heaven agents in Trier began to make trouble, a scuffle quickly broke out between Castor and believers of Evil Gods such as True Creator and Primordial Demoness. It escalated to the point where the official Beyonders had to intervene and ended with a Sequence 5 of the Church being captured. Being Castor's second-in-command in Trier, "He" attempted to save the Beyonder and ended up meeting Lumian and Fors Wall. Remembering the interference of the Tarot Club in Liveseyd (and Fors recognising Castor as someone that hunted Transmigrators), a fight broke out. The battle was brief, but Castor was unmasked and left behind clues that lead to the Church

Derrick Berg and Alger Wilson investigated the Church of Heaven headquarters and met Castor in "His" clergy uniform, cleaning the Church. Trinia then arrived and diffused the situation. "He" revealed Castor was punished for fighting in broad daylight and drawing attention: Gilgamesh ripped "His" tongue out, and Castor would not be able to speak for at least two weeks. Castor was then excused from the Church. When Alger Wilson states the Churches want to audit Trinia and detain Castor, "He" refuses, stating that Castor is an important member, proven by "His" punishment by Gilgamesh: if it was anyone else, their head would have been ripped off instead. Trinia stated "He" would have to kill them if they tried to take Castor. In danger of the situation escalating, Derrick and Alger withdraw but Trinia concedes to the search.

Castor stays low for the next few weeks and does not leave Sonia Island.

## Cult of Kosmos

Castor in present in the Cult meeting infiltrated by Fors Wall and Xio Derencha alongside Trinia and the Sages. When Gilgamesh arrives and reveals a traitor amongst them, Castor votes against removing everyone's masks. as it would be against the rules and an affront to the Sovereign. Before an argument could start, Gilgamesh finds a different spy than the two Tarot Club members and ends the meeting early. Castor leaves with Trinia and the rest of the Faith of Kosmos.

When the War against the Churches broke out, Castor was given free reign to hunt across the Islands and commanded Cult troops on Rorsted, Sonia and Gargas. Castor was naturally against the Church of Storms and Combat during this period, and quickly gained a reputation as a ruthless Beyonder killer. Castor routed the Church's from the Islands and firmly established Cult rule, though "He" would be hard pressed to defend the land as the War dragged on. Castor killed one Sequence 3 and several Sequence 4's during this time.

When the tides turned against the Cult and several Sages Sages (such as Julius and Lord Vile) began to fall, Castor started to purge "His" own men under Gilgamesh's orders. Castor sealed the exits when Gilgamesh recalled all remaining Cultists and executed them, putting an end to the Organization.

## Ascensions

During Trinia's Ritual, Castor and Pollux stopped other Angels and Demigods from interfering. Castor came close to being overwhelmed, but manged to survive using the Crucible at full force.

When Paragon began to ascend, Castor was specifically targeted by others and forced into a corner. In serious danger, Castor began to lose control and mutated into "His" Mythical Creature form: a golden knight with silver indents. As the battle progressed however, Castor further mutated under the effects of "His" 3 Pathways. By the end of it, Castor reverted to a building-sized Demonic Wolf with gold fur, silver wings and 8 legs. This form was a combination of the Heaven, Star and Darkness Pathway and Castor had little sanity in this state. Paragon eventually rescued "Her" son and managed to revert the mutation.

Castor and Pollux were absent for much of Gilgamesh's Ritual and only appeared after "He" stole the Lord of the Mysteries Authority from The Fool. "He" fled with the Authority, juggling it between Pollux and "Him" until "They" reached the Golden Capital. There, Gilgamesh used the Authority and rewrote History, successfully becoming a God.

The constant battles left Castor weakened and infected with various Concepts, making "Him" rest and miss Miquella's first strike. Castor stayed out of the following conflict, as "He" was too weak to have an effect. Upon the Ascension of Malenia and Miquella, Castor moved to the Western Continent with the Golden Capital.

Castor oversaw the merging of "His" mother with the others and the birth of Lazarus Asmodeus, being awarded two Sequence 1 Characteristics of the Heaven Pathway and becoming a King of Angels.

## 6th Epoch

Castor was given two Sequence 1 Characteristics by Lazarus Asmodeus and was promoted to as King of Angels. However, "He" was slightly weaker than a standard King of Angels due to interference from "His" additional Pathways. Castor left Earth with Pollux and Lazarus Asmodeus, going deeper into the Cosmos. When Lazarus Asmodeus returned to deal with Negary, Castor was not with "Him" and stayed in the Cosmos instead.
