Magic Bloodline - Ethereal
​
The Ethereal, meaning "otherworldly visions", are a very unique species of wolves among Starfalls species. No two are even remotely similar in contrast to each other, as there are so many classifications of them.
Ethereal wolves are in a sense, celestial like beings. They are gorgeous in all aspects, no two are alike because the sky is never the same. Even seconds apart. Each Ethereal wolf is either a Zodiac Ethereal, Starling Ethereal, or Skyborn Ethereal.
Lore
Ethereal were once thought to ride the skies on meteors centuries ago. It's said that one member of the Zodiacs long ago fell in love with a mortal on Starfall, and together they produced many children, though it was against their beliefs. Each containing actual stardust in their blood and veins, which is why all creatures do. However, once these wolves perished and their bloodline became more and more mortal, the magic effects of the Ethereal became less prominent.
Now, centuries later, it seems the very legendary creatures told of in old fairy tales have come to be real - And come back to Starfall. Some say they were seen riding the very star that fell into the lake of Starfall and brought the magic, some say they brought the magic here . . .
Skyling Ethereal
The more common of the Ethereals, a Skyling is a wolf born under any type of sky, of course there are many types of these, and none are born the same. While one may be born with a sunny day and fluffy clouds in their pelt, another may be born from the same litter of the sun beginning to set. Skyling Ethereals are most of the time not able to hide their main emotions. When sad, their pelt takes on a dull, clouded gray coloring. When angered, flashes of lightning may flicker, thunder may boom. When happy, their sky pelt may appear to almost dance with clouds, and the colors.

​
Starling Ethereal
Starlings are seen as the next up to the Ethereal. They have blue-black colored pelts, with a specific constellation somewhere on their body that moves as it does when the Earth moves. Their eyes are said to glow at night, like stars themselves - Along with of course the stars in their pelt. Starlings are created by a specific constellation choosing them at birth.
​
Borealis Ethereal
Borealis Ethereal are the next up, highest of the sky Ethereal before they go beyond our natural skies . . . Borealis Ethereal are known for their pelts of dancing colors, drifting along their bodies like that of the Aurora Borealis' themselves. They're rumored to be one of the rarest, and most beautiful species in the known realm.
​
Prismatic Ethereal
These Prismatic Ethereals, a beauty in all its delight. Their rainbow look showers their pelt only in the hues of the rainbow in its order. Their colors do not dance or waver, they do not glow. But no color on Starfall in another Bloodlines pelt could rival the Rainbow Ethereals in beauty or hue saturation.
​
Star Ethereal
These Ethereals take after a single star, and must be given the name of the star on joining for specifications on their bloodline. Their entire pelt glows in the color of the star, which usually is red, orange, yellow, green, white and blue. Their eyes flicker like flames, glowing as well. Hunting may be tricky for these wolves at night because of their glow giving them away.
​
Comet Ethereal
These Ethereal varients are beautiful, having colorations of a falling star wrapping them on their pelt. Like their nebula cousins, they have a strange tail that mimics the firey stream of a Comet itself. The same colors shown there would be displayed on the sides and face, as well as having some stream of Comet flowing down the spine and being at its heels. They take after a specific comet that will determine their color and brightness.
​
Nebula Ethereal
Nebula Ethereal, like their Planet Ethereal friends, are from space itself. They reflect the colorful and star-filled nebula in their pelts. Their tails have no bones, and are not able to be physically touched. They trail with a literal flowing nebula behind them where their tail would be.
​
Planet Ethereal
Planet Ethereal are the first of the above skies, known as space. They, like their head of species, are only found once per lifetime. Each Planet Ethereal embodies the very presence of a planet, no two the same that live at once. Their bodies are striped, patterned, and colored like that of the planets themselves. Each Planet Ethereal is the only Planet of it's kind until it dies, and another is born with that Planet.
​
Zodiac Ethereal
Zodiac Ethereal are the top hierarchy of the Ethereal, above Planet Ethereals. They each possess a specific appearance to their Zodiac. Each Zodiac also possesses their Zodiac Constellation, one of their eyes, behind a dark blue like the night sky - The other resembling the Gemstone of that Zodiac. Each Zodiac Ethereal also is the only Zodiac of each of the 12, until ones dies and another is born from a parent Ethereal.
