Design Note: This race is designed for the Lospiri Campaign Setting

Physical Description

Picture from Lies of Astaroth

Titanians are petite, beautiful humanoids with fair skin, exotic, voluminous hair, and clear eyes like crystal which can intoxicate weaker-minded people. They are very beautiful and their features are chiseled and angular, yet sloped to look naturally perfect. Their bodies are usually slim and very low on body fat. They have tear-drop shaped ears which are not as obvious as an elf's. They do still get mistaken for this often. As they grow older, they retain their beauty and gain a shimmering pair of wings on their backs. These resemble that of a fairy's and are very delicate and ethereal. To protect them, titanians can cause them to disappear and reappear, like magic.

History

During the Great War of the Courts, the valiant goddess Titania fought against all odds for the Seelie Court. She is said to have a body and physique which the titanians take after, only much bigger. The great Titania fell after many battles wore her down and traitors mushroomed within her own court. With her last breath, she praised the Seelie and vowed that, even with her death, the court would be defended by those who came after her. As if she spoke the words to life, born from her blood and lifeless body came for the titanians. They all mirrored aspects of their fallen mother and took up arms as inheritors of the Seelie Court. Like Titania, they bore the inner strength of battle and the mettle to surpass adversity. From the bones of their mother they made weapons, leaving her flesh. This flesh later formed the male titanians, which are not as belligerent as their female counterparts. As the titanians fought on, many scattered the lineage of Titania by having children with other races, which would come to bear the fallen warrior's spirit and zeal.

Society

The titanians managed to procure a single island out far in the east where they declared their court sovereign. They have a matriarchal system where those who can claim their undying loyalty to the court and prove it in a series of trials of battle are named one of the court. Those of the court reign in a parliamentary fashion. While males are eligible to compete for a position, their demurer demeanor is usually edged out by the more confident females, which are also a majority of the racial population. The trials are meant to mirror the hardships of Titania to never forget what their purpose is. All born from Titania's blood share this same duty, they believe. Therefore, even the males are treated with the same respect as the females, rather than second class citizens. They take care of a lot of the behind the scenes chores while the females attend war conferences and fight battles.

Religion

Titanians worship a matriarchal pantheon of gods and goddesses. At the center of their pantheon is the dead goddess Titania. By association, her husband, the god Oberon, and their children, Damh and Verenestra, are also important to them. These main figures are worshipped in yearly festivals denoting the seasons. Titania is the spring. Oberon is summer. Damh is the winter, and Verenestra is autumn. Spring is thus the most celebrated time of year, when zeal runs high in the titanians and they celebrate the blooming of life after quiet winters. Summer festivity is mainly to be grateful for loving spouses and celebration of both sexes and the love between Titania and her husband through thick and thin. Damh was rumored to be a quiet child, so the winters are passed in contemplation. Autumn brings about humbleness, as Verenestra was a kind figure who did little talking, but her helpful actions spoke volumes. Titanians believe the powers of deities that be are intimately involved in their lives. Most religious observation is personal and intimate.
