Changes: Celedon Physiology

Revision as of 21:31, 31 December 2018

The power to use the powers and traits of celedons. Variation of Mythic Physiology.

Capabilities

User with this ability either is or can transform into a celedon (Greek Golden Charmers, also Khryseai Keledones, latin Chrysaea Celedones), one of the magical singers crafted from the purest gold by Hephaistos, for the second mythical temple of the god Apollon at Delphi. As such, they were originally considered a type of Automaton, but shortly after their creation, Hephaestus endowed them with life.

As they were forged from the purest gold by the hands of a god, they are strikingly beautiful in appearance and voice and have the shape of either beautiful women, wryneck birds, or a combination of the two: a Siren-like bird women.

The most famous (and most powerful) of the Celedon's abilities is the ability to produce an entrancing ethereal song, similar to that of the Sirens. The song of the original Celedones was enough to soothe a god, as evident by their role in singing for the god Hephaestus.

Applications

Associations

Limitations

Only females can be Celedons.

 ==Capabilities==
-User with this ability either is or can transform into a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_(mythology) German] (pronounced "yer-mon"), a blue-skinned male spirit or supernatural being in Slavic Mythology, associated with fertility, especially the coming of rain and hail.
+User with this ability either is or can transform into a [http://www.theoi.com/Ther/AutomotonesKeledones.html celedon] (Greek Golden Charmers, also Khryseai Keledones, latin Chrysaea Celedones), one of the magical singers crafted from the purest gold by Hephaistos, for the second mythical temple of the god Apollon at Delphi.

-Because of their nature as spirits of rain and hail, German are capable of perceiving oncoming rain or hail with keen psychic accuracy. They can sense when it will begin, how intense it will be, how long it will last and what areas it will hit. This sense is so keen, in fact, that it is often used to determine the route of the German's travels.
+The most famous (and most powerful) of the Celedon's abilities is the ability to produce an entrancing ethereal song, similar to that of the Sirens. The song of the original Celedones was enough to soothe a god, as evident by their role in singing for the god Hephaestus.
-In addition, the German can turn invisible, intangible, inaudible, inodorous or even entirely imperceptible to the senses. They are also capable of flight and levitation, standing on clouds as though standing on solid ground, generating miniature rain clouds to ride on, and the like.
-Furthermore, their touch rapidly restores and nourishes plant life as though it were touched and fed by the rain. Simply walking over grass, for example, can leave behind the German a trail of grass grown knee-high.
-However, its most famous capabilities lie in its weather manipulation. After secluded observation of the inhabitants of a society, and judgment of the society's overall character, the German can decide between calling forth, intensifying, stopping or preventing the rains or the hail.
-Preventing the rains might even be so extreme as to result in a prolonged drought, while bringing forth the rain may be intensified to the point of devastating floods.
-Strangely, in order bring about or stay these events, however, it must first literally give up its own life, simultaneously stopping its brain, heart and breathing...of its own will. Though, fortunately, the German will immediately resurrect from the dead as soon as the rain has passed.
-And should the German ever be successfully (and permanently) killed, the weather will shift to bring forth (or withhold) rain/hail for the same number of ''hours'' as the number of ''years'' that he lived.
-Though, it must be noted: not all rain is caused by the German.
