the plot.
DISRUPTION IN THE HEAVENS
An enemy as old as time returns from the black hole they were trapped in, now promising vengeance and eternal darkness. A battle amongst the stars ensues and this time, the constellations find themselves in a drastically losing position. More and more constellations are getting consumed by the umbra, the ending drawing closer towards a tragedy. Not all hope is lost, though. There are whispers from above and down below, speaking of a legend that is the crystal of Lux. Tales claim that this crystal harbours the light of the whole galaxy and is able to defeat even the most nebulous darkness. Up until now, to the constellations, it was only that. A myth. However, a recent discovery pointed towards the actual existence of this crystal. A symposium took place between the remaining constellations and in the end, the desperation overrode the risk. Four constellations were either selected or volunteered themselves to embark on this journey and find the crystal before it is too late. The last rumoured location? Earth.
A BREAKTHROUGH ON EARTH
They saw it coming. There was a prophecy amongst a secret organization of astrologists, speaking of four falling stars, perpetual darkness, and a crystal of light. Up until recently, no one from STELLARIS could decipher what the prophecy exactly entailed. However, once more and more constellations started disappearing from the dark heavens, it became apparent. And it was also no mere coincidence that the prophecy rang true, Stellaris their role crystal clear. Aid the constellations. The people of STELLARIS began to prepare for these ‘falling stars’ and four members were each appointed to a constellation to get them accustomed to earth and to provide help wherever needed.
However, wherever the light goes, darkness follows.
And with earth-shattering consequences.

lyra
Might as well be an angel in disguise. Is someone always there to help, always ready to lend a hand. Has a persona where she's always there to give a helping hand, ready to do whatever favours without hesitation. An undeniable people pleaser; you could use her as a personal gofer and she wouldn't mind, never minding having to go out of her way to walk. Conservator of harmony – even if it means holding secrets and telling lies. A faithful follower of the rules and fearful of anything that deviates from it. Volunteered to seek for the crystal, because that’s just who she is. A person filled with love and care.
― ᴘʟᴀʏᴇᴅ ʙʏ ɴᴀᴛᴀsʜᴀ.
Cassiopeia
A constellation with enough vanity to make her actually believe she is royalty. Firmly stands by the idea that she truly is the most beautiful of them all and therefore, superior. A person who loves and craves attention with something like desperation. Will do anything to receive the attention she thinks she deserves to the point of being pitiful. A person who, above all, loves so passionately that it’s hard to breathe underneath it. Petty and down-right mean at times, though that might just be a defence mechanism. She was one of the selected to seek the crystal and although the woman was more than displeased to leave her luxurious spot in the heavens, she embarked on the quest.

orion
A person whose ego was fed by being the most popular one amongst the constellations. A narcissist with a solid hero-complex; thinks he the best in his own way and always more than eager to save the day. His strong will to do great things and be admired often blinds him from seeing what the people maybe truly need. Meddles himself into businesses that aren’t his to be involved in, solely because he wants to play the hero. A martyr to the core; will save all the people he can save, even at a detriment to himself. Clings to the notion of being remembered like it’s the only thing that matters. A volunteer, because that’s what a hero does.

scorpius
Wickedly cunning and greedy veiled with a mask of charms. Has a mastery in manipulation and can be anyone you want him to be - or who he wants you to see. His gestures might seem caring, but in reality, they hold something hollow and self-centred. Many of his flirtations are shown to be a mere tool of manipulation, the words only aiming to gain an outcome that benefits him the most. Selflessness is not a trait he possesses, not hesitating to sacrifice others if it means that he would be the only one standing at the end of the battle. Born and raised in the shadows of Orion’s popularity, the man has grown to be envious and bitter, and only volunteered with the plan to ‘dethrone’ the popular constellation.
― ᴘʟᴀʏᴇᴅ ʙʏ ᴛʀɪᴘʟᴇs
dedicated study
A study in hard-work with an almost prodigious intellect. Goes through life with a level-headed attitude and handles matters with a logical approach. A perfectionist with bossy tendencies, yet unfailingly dutiful and loyal to her friends. Perhaps the odd one out in a secret organisation primarily based on belief rather than facts, but that’s because ______ Devotes herself to the appointed role with utmost perseverance. Someone, who can’t understand – for the love of god – why she was paired up with a narcissist with a hero-complex.
― ᴘʟᴀʏᴇᴅ ʙʏ ɴᴇᴏɴ ʀᴇᴠᴇʀɪᴇ
empathetic wallflower
A quirky girl, with a serene disposition and many eccentric beliefs and qualities. Nonconformist in a way she lacks the self-consciousness and isn’t afraid to show who she truly is. Has a demeanour and voice distant and dreamy – as if she is in her own wonderland. An open book when it comes to emotions and someone who doesn’t understand why people aren’t the same. Someone with a knack for embarrassing honesty and a curiosity that is yet to be satisfied. One who can’t help but wonder why the constellation she ended paired up with has two faces….
― ᴘʟᴀʏᴇᴅ ʙʏ sᴛᴀʀᴅᴜsᴛ ɢᴀʟᴀxʏ
indifferent duty
To be completely blunt - thinks this astrology belief is complete bullshit. A man of few words and even fewer emotions. Someone with their foot firmly planted on the ground, firmly telling himself that these beliefs should only be for the ones in the gutter who look up at the stars. Wears a mask with scars that are yet to heal. Is only in this whole ordeal because of his duty and love towards his recently passed brother - and immediately regrets it the moment he is paired up with a constellation with enough vanity to fill the galaxy..
― ᴘʟᴀʏᴇᴅ ʙʏ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍɢʟᴏᴡ
goodhearted mayhem
He, who laughs just for laughs. Someone who takes enjoyment easy in pranks and the simple things in life. He’s trouble in how he only barely knows when to behave, does his jobs well but with a cheekiness to it that makes his fellow members pray he doesn't go near anyone too important and strict. He loves his vices and never bothers to hide them, privy to sneaking out to enjoy the night no matter how it might be dangerous. The person who hopes to show the earth to the constellation, and maybe put a bit of the devil in the angel.
