Description: An avian-humanoid race, Kinnara have aquiline faces, sharp cheekbones and light tan to dark brown skin. Their hair, which is naturally some shade of black, is either cut short or tied into braids or buns. Many Kinnaran's wear dhotis or sarees, loose flowing garments made of silk, satin or chiffon, some are plain white in keeping with old tradition while newer garments are dyed in various color patterns and embroidered with exquisite designs. Kinnaran warriors are armored in padded and treated quilted armor that is light enough to allow them flight, many use bows, crossbows or matchlock rifles though some opt for one-handed maces and light laminar shields.
Lore: The children of Indra, the Kinnara are the guardians of the Hyperborean skies, maintaining orbital cities in some to defend worlds from abyssal threats. Kinnarans also build their cities on the steppes or the tops of mountains and use the wild jungles as training grounds for their aspirant warriors, though nomads do live in there as well. Outside of Svarga, Kinnarans are generally peaceful and easy-going but those who protect the Pulsar, the core of Svarga have a deep-rooted distrust of outsiders along with bouts of xenophobia exacerbated by Yaldabaoth and her minions in their constant schemes to gain control of the dangerous divine artifact.
Eidolons
Saraswati: Goddess of Singing and Music
Description: Saraswati experienced minor changes during her ascension. Her singular pair of wings expanded and split to form four pairs of tawny gold and glinting silver while her eyes changed to a deep golden radiance with silvery-black pupils at the center. Saraswati dresses in a variety of sarees embroidered with complex geometric patterns, each one is a song written out in a series of patterns with each symbol translating to a certain sound, step or instruction. Saraswati does not wield any celestial weapon, though she can warp sound to her needs, either for defense or offense. Her harp, the Uaithne, translates music so that all who hear can understand the words, even extending to the animals of that world, and often lures in hordes of enthralled listeners when she begins to play.
Lore: Growing up in a time of peace and plenty afforded Saraswati the opportunity to explore the deeper mysteries with sound. She created numerous stringed and wind instruments to produce new sounds such as the clarinet, bassoon, trumpet, flute, harp, lyre, ukulele, fiddle, and harpsichord along with countless variations of each, producing a wide gambit of instruments during her mortal tenure. She also pioneered and perfected numerous new styles of music including Concerto, Sonata, Ballade, Divertimento, Arabesque, Capriccio, and Oratorio. Saraswati orchestrates the grand gallery that plays out in the clouds above Mahoroba, producing celestial music that can be heard faintly across the entire cosmos if one chooses to listen closely.
