Asari – The Magician
Appearance
- Average height is 6ft
- Facial markings follow genetic, familial patterns, but some asari can add tattooed patterns
Attire:
- Usually wears long, flowing, and sometimes sheer clothing
- Not uncommon for clothing to have cut outs or reveal more skin than other peoples
- Often use vivid colors
- Outfits with pants still tend to include cut outs in the fabric as well and can be more form fitting for maneuverability
- Priestesses and acolytes tend to have more intricate garb often with jewels
- It is not uncommon for them to walk barefoot
- Those in the Lesuss Monastery (ardat-yakshi) tend to wear hoods and may use more neutral or dark colors
Armor
- Light armor is the preferred choice and can sometimes include a sash or cloak
- Justicars wear gold armor with the helmet’s face plate designed after a asari face
Asari
are spiritual, following the teachings of the Goddess, Athame (Goddess
of prophecy and fate that teaches mathematics and medicine) and her
guides, Janiri (agriculture) and Lucen (the stars)
- They also believe in a unified whole of all peoples of one creation
- Death leads to their spirit becoming one with Alysim
- Temples often incorporate water, some even built around rivers themselves
- Celebrate
the springtime fertility ritual Janiris which marks the start of the
new year. During this time, they create wreaths of flowers and
distribute them among their friends and loved ones - Justicars are religious warriors, believed to follow a code designed by Athame herself
There is no set political structure as asari are in constant communication throughout Thessia
- Average citizens often develop thought alone before sending a representative to speak with a priestess
- The priestess then speaks to (or can be circumvented altogether) the Matriarch responsible for playing the region’s representative
- If need be, Matriarchs (or High Priestesses where Matriarchs are not available) then discuss the matter and come to a decision
- This decision can always been protested by citizens and undergo another process
The Councilor is anyone willing to accept the responsibility, usually volunteering herself
- There is then a vote among anyone wanting to decide on the issue
- The current Councilor is a High Priestess
