[QUOTE="Shemeska, post: 1476406, member: 11697"] The Quasar are a race of celestials that are more construct than living being. They appear as vaguely humanoid beings composed of pure light, sometimes with a somewhat half-elven aspect. They are native to the swampy 3rd layer of Elysium, Belarian, but largely as a result of being created there rather than being true children of that plane. They were created by a group of lawful Aasimon in the dim past, originally intended as servitors to the Aasimon, much as the Aasimon serve as servitors to the deities. They did their work too well and the Quasar had free will with which they decided to first question their orders and then disobey them. The Aasimon tried to force their place upon them when the true deities of Elysium stepped into the conflict and ordered a halt to it. They declared that by the nature of Elysium, such enforced lawful will had no place, and the Quasar were to be free to do as they chose in their good aligned nature. The Aasimar grudgingly allowed this. The Quasar are few in number and largely stay in Elysium, though every so often one of them will descend into the Gray Waste or another lower plane and give their own life to obliterate as many fiends as they can. The rightious fury of a self sacrificing Quasar is one of the most terrifying sights for a fiend to ever see. Imagine a celestial glowing brighter and brighter as it fights until it erupts in an explosion of holy energy that incinerates everything around it as its last living act. How you got a half Quasar in Toras's case, that's bit of a backstory for his character that I'll leave at his discretion. [/QUOTE]
