High Entia have wings sprouting from their heads, giving them almost an angelic appearance. These wings are typically large, reaching down to the mid-thigh, with the exception of Half-High Entia, such as Melia Antiqua, who sport much smaller wings, although some pure blood High Entia can be born with smaller wings, half blood High Entia will never have full length wings. High Entia also are known to have silver hair and fair skin, and give off a regal air similar to an elf's.
History[edit]
High Entia were a hidden race on the Bionis for a long time, living at the highest point on said world. They are much more technologically advanced than the Homs of the lower Bionis, and during the Mechon invasions shut themselves up in their capital city, Alcamoth. They later regretted this decision and decided to begin to defend the Homs better from then on.
From far into their past the High Entia have strived to break the shackles of their creator Zanza who created them from cells discarded from the creation of dragon-like beings know as Telethia, as they are born from fragments of Telethia they strived to bury the gene that would change them into Zanza's monstrous slaves beneath the genes of Homs who were not created from Telethia and so would not change a perfect Homs and High Entia half breed will have short head wings and will be immune to the process that changes them into Telethia.
Society[edit]
High Entia society is organized and strict, with a single monarch ruling. The said monarch has two consorts, a High Entia First Consort and a Homs Second Consort. Children of the second consort are sometimes shunned because of their smaller wings and mixed blood, such as Melia Antiqua, the daughter of Emperor Sorean Antiqua and an unnamed Homs.
Their ways of living from their days on the head of the Bionis mean that most high Entia have integrated well into life within the cities of high elves. While relationships between the High Entia and High elves seem to go well they are looked down on from purests from both sides who believe that their blood should not be mixed with other races even those who are seen as equals usually a High Entia and High Elf crossbreed with have golden hair small head wings and they will have a more elf like face.
High Entia Names[edit]
High Entia names have a naming scheme similar to elves', favoring fantastical and "beautiful" names over common ones. Most female names end with an "a", such as Tyrea, Melia, and Lorithia, while male names are less obviously pattern-following.
