Herost Seltien

Summary

Herost-Seltien, also called Mind-finders typically stand between 5'8-6'6, and have moderate frames, typically being built in the mid-range of humanoid frames. Their appearances typically are similar to humans of the Tiorath strain (but slightly broader in build). However their hair is normally fairer. The most easy form of Recognition for their kind is the pair of small crystalline horns on either side of their forehead which match their eyes in color, and glow faintly when they are mentally stimulated. The also have growths of the same material that take the shape of small hexagons located on their palms and the bases of the neck and spine. These points act as magical focus points, and can be used to ground them to mystic focal points in a region of a world simply by lying flat on the ground with these crystalline structures making contact with the earth or grass on a starry night (At which time the horns are allowed to face the stars).

Culture

Herost-Seltien are one of the two most common forms of Seltien, roughly tied for population size with Celcene-Seltien. Herost-Seltien seek inspiration in all forms, but focuses on how these inspirations can be used to improve ones thought process, and are naturally drawn to those who actively attempt to improve their intellect. They spend two to four decades seeking their sources of inspiration, and spend two years cataloging and meditating on their discoveries in their homeland for every decade they spent seeking inspiration.
