Drama, callouts, and general community dysfunction will be touched on next.

005. I do not wish to see, nor participate in drama, callouts, or general behavior that will cause a disturbance in the community. While I understand some people are ultimately, not as good as I'd like them to be, many conflicts can be solved via one-on-one conversation.THAT BEING SAID; If the reason for callout, is especially hideous such as racism, pedophilia or something along those lines, while I WILL NOT REBLOG THE POST, I will take note and act accordingly - likely, resulting in a block of the individual.If we, you and I, have a problem ; I'd prefer we discuss it by some means, before any such escalation.

That being said, if you have made no effort to know my character, learn about her, or even approach me with questions it's unlikely we will interact, or i will follow you back. This is for my own comfort, and for my own patience. I cannot force someone to read what does not interest them, and I'd never want to !As for myself, I do have a poor memory on record ; if I mess something up, or ask the same questions over and over, please don't think it's a lack of care for your muse, canon, canon-divergent, or a much- loved oc.I WOULD LIKE, TO ADD A TRIGGER WARNING FOR CELESTE'S LORE ; THERE WILL BE THEMES OF SEXUAL ASSAULT, SLAVERY, FORCED BIRTH, AND OTHER DARK TOPICS.

009. I'm sure this is the aspect everyone was excited for, and that is SHIPIING! My main ship, now and forever, is going to be ELQUELLORA, and while MAIN sounds perhaps like a preferential treatment, it simply means that DuLo and I have put years into developing this ship, and the intricacies, nuance and depth of it, and that it has a very special place in my heart.HOWEVER, that doesn't mean, nor imply, that any other ship is less special. While she and I have agreed to open our accounts to multi-ships, I do not currently have ANY OTHER ACTIVE SHIPS, though I have had interested parties.Please don't mistake me ; while I adore, romance, and sexual chemistry, I love other relationships just as much. Platonic, familial, hostile, enemies, the entire spectrum is welcome here. If you're interested in a ship, of any kind or dynamic, please don't hesitate to voice so, send an ask / meme, or just approach me in DM's !Now, if I turn down an idea, please don't take that to mean I dislike you, your ideas, or anything similar. I simply may not see potential where you do, or see a relationship going in a different direction.

voice. soft, with an accent. singing is almost hypnotic in its' way. the voice of the lovely AURORA.

build. a smaller frame, with fat in some areas ; her thighs, and backside, for the most part. a body made for egg-bearing. while many would attempt to slim down, celeste takes joy in the body the gods have given her ; no matter how small.legs are far more birdlike than humanlike, and do bend at odd angles, almost making it impossible for her to sit on her backside.
scent. damp moss, freshly turned dirt, blooming flowers with a touch of a warm breeze.
clothing. as celeste is a lesser harpy, she does not wear clothing: it's not permissible for lessers to be seen in clothing. this changes according to verses.

youth To hatch, is hard enough.
One of two children, Celeste befell the misfortune of being the daughter, and not the son, of her parents. HARPY MALES, ARE A RARITY, AFTER ALL.celeste's parents, in this way, saw themselves blessed. A son ; Remus. An heir, to their bloodline, as opposed to their strange, starry - feathered girl.Remus grew strong, as the favored one, the golden boy, fed regularly while his sister was fortunate enough to be given scraps from his meals. and, it was by the age of three, where celeste began to suffer severe malnutrition, that she was faced with a choice: live, or die.with so much sorrow, with so much agony, did the little bird find a moment her brother was unguarded, and push him from the safety of the nest. remus would plummet, from their tree, and land at the ground below, heaving one last gurgle, before dying there.and it was by the time, their parents returned, that they realized her sin. and forever would resent her for it. for, from them, stealing their boy, their heir.two year later, by the age of five, a fledgling celeste, still unable to fly on her own, would fall herself, saved only by branches on the way down. her parents, never noticed.however, without help, a chick could not survive, and it was in her search for help, her cheeping cries, that she was found by mother helena, and her husband, father troy. a rooster, and a chicken harpy - simply one of many hens. helena, soft of heart, took celeste beneath her wing and nursed the poor hawkling back to health, raising celeste as her very own. with eleven hens total, the village celeste needed, was finally granted to her.it was only by age ten, that celeste could fly on her own, albeit a bit shakily. and though she loved her mothers, those kind hens that would raise and love her, she knew her place was not with them. bidding her goodbyes, she'd flown to the very nest that she'd fallen from ; only for her parents to be gone. they had, at once, taken flight, and were never seen again.and though this pain would linger, it was certainly, not the end of celeste's struggle and strife, in the life she lived.

adulthood The edge of seventeen ; a child still, and despite a youth that would break down even the proudest centaur, celeste remained optimistic. it was by this time, she'd come into her oraclehood full, the dreams and voices whispering at the tender age of thirteen.and though she knew not, herself to be something special, covetous eyes would know. would watch. for greater harpies, in their greed, were wanting things. it was at this age, of only seventeen, that celeste was ambushed in her nest, chained, and stolen to the northwestern dreadwood, where the collective of greater harpies had decided to nest.and of all beings, to steal her away, it was the notorious slaver and flesh-monger, lanuius. though lanius had a wife, himself, his wife was ordinary ; no oracle, no starhawk, and thus, was deemed unfit to produce his heirs.celeste, was given that responsibility, instead.bound and unwilling, she bore clutch after clutch to lanius, permitted naught to see any of them grow, safe for two sons, as daughters were culled with extreme cruelty. THESEUS, AND HIS YOUNGER BROTHER PERSEUS, were all that would endure.for too many years, would she endure this torture, as an incubator, as a slave, until she was twenty-one, when her chains were broken and she fled. she did not stop, for days and nights, flying, running, far from that place. with no means of tracking her accurately across otraybia, lanius was forced to accept the loss, of celeste, but clung to his sons vehemently. it's rumored, he sends his guard out to look for her, every so often.it was by now, celeste ought have developed teeth, and gnashed and bitten at any hand that would serve to aid her, but she'd, by then, had no energy. no drive, no want. for the first time in her life, short as it had been, she merely wanted to die. to disappear.a tree, close to her hens was found, and she dragged herself into an empty hole, resting there for days, silent. neighbors above, cardinals, would check in upon her and aid her in getting her onto her talons once more. a kind pair, leaving only when she was well enough.it was thanks to their kindness and willingness to aid, that celeste could find some shred of distraction, in her occupation as a medicine witch, a medic specializing in homeopathic remedies and healing pulled from the world around.even still, word in whispers would spread of an oracle, living still. and those who were able, would seek her out, hoping for some divine fortune. but she was merely a conduit, to the gods' will and voice ; no prophet or mere fortune teller.however, she'd take the mistakes and misnomers, the broken wings, and godsblight, over memory of her past. now, she does any and all possible, to forget.

cities of men. while human beings are, indeed, a part of otraybia, their major cities are scattered about the land, with none too close to each other. due to the cohabitation of the gods' creations and humans, this is for SAFETY, as close settlements would suffer heavier losses. the cities, are known as follows:ibas, itoria, sekayria, mytakros, lateon, barona, && dimetus.some, are sea-faring cities, while others thrive more agriculturally along riverbanks and lakes. it is to be known, that the gods' creations - inhuman creatures - are seldom welcome into the settlements of men.

landmark locations. otraybia is a vast landmass ; however, many residents of the land have labeled specific regions, as not only waypoints, but to pinpoint what creatures would live there. for instance, harpies are almost exclusively found in the dreadwood, be it northwest or the south. other locations would include, the bay of sorrows, satyrshire, the vast empty, gaia's cradle, && swamp hallow. there are many more locations, but these are some of those notable to both godsmade creatures and men alike.

as above, so below. otraybia, is a strange land ; while the earth, itself, is not hollow, there is a whole, other world just beneath the ground. a subterranean underground, known as ABBALON. it is here, where serpentfolk, insectfolk, batfolk, and the undead tend to live ; it's rumored, too, that some dragons are just beneath the surface, lurking in caves. there are many important landmarks in abbalon, as well, such as the lumen caves, the deadyards, ringrot forest, the godswood, && snap-spine falls. it's very rare, for creatures of abbalon to surface, and rare for creatures of otraybia to go below the surface. while the creatures of each land have no quarrel with one another, it's something akin to a culture shock, to venture to a land that is not yours.

the ugly cousins. as creatures of poseidon, harpies are not alone, in their creation. merfolk and sirens, too, were of his make, and found themselves to be more favored. of the three, harpies were the first created, yet the least loved. this, in many harpies, creates a bitterness toward their cousins, and they do not enjoy being compared to more fish - based creatures.celeste, as an individual, given her personality, does not mind speaking of the other species, but does harbor some hurt over her own being.

what is a celestial harpy? celestial harpies, or, starbirds are rare ; but they, as an entity, are almost mythic, in nature. harpies seen and blessed by gods, they often end up prophets of their time, if not incredibly powerful beings with abilities granted by the god that favors them most. they are most often noted, by starry-like markings on their feathers, that come to feature even current constellations, or starts of great notoriety, such as polaris.mind you ; these creatures are not gods, but will not move to hades when they die. they will, instead, become beings that ascend to the heavens and accompany the gods : not as servants, but as messengers, guides, and even watchers over the living.as a starhawk, celeste's blessing is oraclehood, that will SOON, GRADUATE INTO THE STATUS OF PROPHET. she does not know, of this status, nor of the power she will come to inherit, though she knows of the myth. as of now, there is no certainty in what ability she will gain.the last starbird, was a phoenix of black flame, and starry feathers — however, that was decades ago, and none are even sure if she is alive, to this day.

the gods' delight while celeste is not immune to harm, the gods to look upon her with great favor. however, as they often — in recent centuries — do not interfere entirely in the lives of mortal things, save to deliver punishment or a lesson, it's almost impossible to detect. however, it is not simply her PATRON, that looks upon her with such love, and such grace, but the entire pantheon, titans and primordials alike. all, will speak to her, in their own way ; be it the breeze in the trees, and the whisper upon the winds, or the pit in her stomach, that stays her from danger. She's noticed, though, that the women tend to favor her most ; Circe, Gaia, Nyx, and others are more clear, with their word.

BLEACH : THE ARRANCAR ARC

[ open / private | canon / canon-divergent / au ]

a shadow, in the desert ; a being of pure pitch, with wings as starry as the night sky in the world of humans, celeste attached herself to ulquiorra cifer, and, in a sense, acted as a protector, always flying near. they, at the time, enjoyed the presence of one another ; he, finding some sense of calm in her singing, and she, finding calm in his very existence. it was within no time at all, that celeste — as even a hollow — was smitten.then, ulquiorra broke himself, and his mask apart, and was found by aizen, taken away from the safety of her wings, her cries echoing through hueco mundo for days. aizen, would soon return for her, with an offer. one, that came with the promise of seeing ulquiorra again ; one she couldn't refuse.branded with the number of 70, celeste would act as an aide to aizen, not dissimilar to loly, or menoly. though she brandished a blade, as all other arrancar, celeste was a bit of an odd soul, and fenixia rarely saw any use. talons and claws, and shrillest shriek, was often enough for combat that never came.still, however, did she shadow ulquiorra, despite his changes. it was an impulse, an instinct, to remain at his back and keep him safe from others. that being said ; she does not ignore, or disrespect, the other lords of the castle. celeste has found herself fond of some, and is known to seek them out when the time is had.and, though celeste was never meant to be a hollow, never meant to be absorbed into an army, she is far from harmless. far from weak.IT IS AFTER, the shinigami leave hueco mundo, however, that celeste is left to pick up pieces. left to bury bodies, of those she'd once called friends, of those she once loved.the death, of ulquiorra, hit her harder than anything else in the desert could have. and it was that death, that shock and numbness, that made her easier prey for what was to come.

with aizen's defeat at the hand of kurosaki ichigo, hueco mundo was left changed. las noches, was left in ruins, and among those ruins, did king harribel attempt to rule, and ; for a short time, at least, did. the quincy army, invaded, and little time passed before arrancar, a race of few in number, were systematically exterminated, only the strongest taken in and caged, manipulated and molded to serve YHWACH, and his twisted idealism. brothers and sisters alike, felled by blade, by lance and spear, with no mercy.celeste, should not have been an exception.when found by quilge opie, her death should have been assured. she did not fight, she did not resist, entirely broken from the war lost only a handful of years ago. however, cast upon her was a grace, and she was permitted to live within the quincy's walls.a room all her own, she is seldom visited ; only by those select few that she chooses to entertain, chooses to speak to. left broken and sorrowful, it was rather uncommon, but not impossible to hold conversation with her. however, never, did she draw her blade for those that would act as her captors.bereft of her love, celeste in this era is gloomy, in a word, her voice even softer and more hush. there are some among the stern ritter she refuses to speak to, passing by meekly and with her head bowed. she'd never know, what would trigger their wrath ; and all knew, arrancar were expendable.

BLEACH : THE THOUSAND YEAR BLOOD WARㅤ

[ open / private | canon / canon-divergent / au ]

BLEACH : POST TYBW

[ open / private | canon / canon-divergent / au ]

with the defeat of YHWACH and the assured safety of her own, arrancar now being a protected peoples, celeste takes it upon herself — with ample encouragement — to act as a go - between to strengthen shinigami and arrancar relations.while it's a rather thankless job at times, she does her best to present the better side of hollows, assuring many that THEY, are not the mindless, savage beasts regaled in stories, passed down through generations. merely creatures, left behind and trying to survive.it is after the thousand year blood war, that celeste finds herself lucky ; ulquiorra has reconstituted, and finds himself living once more. after the exchange of celeste to ulquiorra cifer, from the hands and capture of quilge opie, they live together happily, cementing the reality of their relationship as partners, as they should have been always.he has his reservations, in a sense, about celeste working so warmly with shinigami ; but it is not as peaceful as it seems. celeste still harbors some hurt, in her heart, against them, for all they had done against arrancar and hollow-kind. however, it is her greatest hope, that they can humanize one another, and stoke peace for years to come.

a possessor and practitioner, of CURSED VOICE, celeste is relatively secluded, in relative comparison to most other sorcerers, who are either students, or mentors.where that hierarchy exists, she does not, teetering just outside of it.she originally began training in tokyo, but sooner dropped out, after finding fundamental and idealistic disagreements with how the world functioned, and the way it saw humans who were not blessed with abilities like her own.though her grading as a curse user is unknown, celeste is not one to be taken so lightly, with her ability able to cause serious damage to those exposed to it. however, it does it come at a slight cost, similar to inumaki, where celeste must rest and find soothing elements for her throat. AS OF NOW, IT'S SPECULATED THAT CELESTE WOULD BE A SPECIAL GRADE 1 SORCERER.celeste is not one to have any place in the culling games, or their stakes, and is relatively neutral. as a religious woman, she believes the outcome, is as the gods would intend. men feared, were simply men, and she had no hand in the final battle against sukuna.finding celeste, can be an extreme challenge, as she flits from place to place, often keeping to wooded areas and the tallest heights of skyscrapers, seeking solace in her loneliness. however... if one is wise, cautious and well meaning, the bird of prey will easily flock to them.

JUJUTSU KAISEN :

[ open / private | canon / canon-divergent / au ]

OTRAYBIA :

[ open / private | canon / canon-divergent / au ]

taking place in her established, original lore, celeste in this verse, is freshly escaped from LANIUS, by the age of twenty one, and in hiding, working still at her skill as a medicine witch.she lives a short flight from her many mothers and father troy ; but does rarely visit, lest they fall into trouble, because of her.it is here that celeste is somewhat skittish, distrusting of those that would seek her out, especially those of a more human - appearing type. she does not consider herself anything of a fortune teller, and does find offense to the suggestion.while her disposition is kind, still, celeste in this verse, is more prone to lashing out, in even her gentle ways. the pain, the wounds, are too new. her hatred against greater harpies burns brighter and hotter than any star, even if she does all possible to keep is softened and silent.it is in this verse, that abbalon and a variety of other creatures, such as centaurs, dragons and their ilk, satyrs, fauns, and many other gods' creatures will be mentioned and canon.(this verse is open to oc's & au's of others, so long as they adhere to my lore. for any questions, concerns or interest, please contact me.)
