Lenian Information




Lenians: A Magical race of creatures that look part human and part of another creature, and have a need to make a bond with a human to protect them.


(AKA. A species I made for my to-be comic.)


Where do they come from?



The humans on Planet Cressida (planet where the story takes place) don't know where they come from, the governments trying to figure it out have no idea. They think that when enough magical energy builds in an area, a Lenian just appears. They are only partly right.


In reality, Lenians originate from Cressida before they are born. Lenian birds that are female within proper age (referred to as Mother Lenians) grow pregnant every seven months with an egg. This egg, contains a new Lenian. What the Lenian is, is not determined yet. The species of creature mix, male or female, and even the abilities are chosen near the last days of being in the Mother, determined by her level of stress.

Mother Lenians are one of the most magic filled creatures on Cressida, yet they also are one of the smallest users of magic. This is because, when a Mother Lenian lays her egg, she uses all of her stored magic to transport that egg to the home planet of Lenians. Planet Neso.


On Planet Neso, the Lenian egg hatches to a life filled with training, learning, and caring. While the Lenian is training for Cressida, they have dreams of someone. That someone is who they need to find for their mission. After a few years of that, the Lenian may get a troubling dream about the someone. The dream is usually very unpleasant, making the Lenian to be come very stressed. With this stress, they use their first magic to transport themselves to Cressida.


Because all of the sudden stress on the body because of the dream as well as using magic for the first time, the Lenian tends to forget all about Neso. If they don't forget unwillingly, they will remember the dangers of letting others know, so they force themselves to forget. Few Lenians chose to keep memories of Neso.

Awaking to a new life on Cressida, all they think about is finding that one they had dreams about. They search everywhere till they find them. Once the Lenian finds the "Master" from their dreams, they make a bond by the "Master" giving the Lenian a name. With this name, Lenians unlock their magic abilities and will be able to find their master anywhere.  



Species mix of Lenians:



Almost any species of animals/bugs/myth is found as a Lenian, though due to the fact that they carry the characteristics of the animal they split with, Mammal Lenians are more popular as a companion. Some species of Lenians have "laws" that Lenianologists have studied.


Lenian Rules:



- About 1.2% of humans on planet Cressida have a Lenian Companion.
-All bird Lenians are female, with the exception of Eagle and Vulture Lenians.
-Only female bird Lenians are able to get pregnant.  
-Bug-based Lenians are mostly male, but butterflies, ladybugs, ants, and mosquitoes are known to have some females.   
-All Lenians carry characteristics of the animal they split with. ie. Cats attracted to lasers, Dragons having hoarding problems, Dogs getting sick off of chocolate, Fish having gills. ect.
-Lenians only have one element for magic powers, and only after they make a bond.
-Bonded Lenians are able to "see" some of the master's future, but only parts of trouble that needs the Lenian's help.
-Lenians can't see other Lenians interfering with their master's future.
-If the Lenian kills the one they are supposed to protect, they become one of the Curse'd.



Curse'd Nature:



Most Lenians are able to protect their master at all costs, but sometimes the unpredictable happens. When a Lenian harms another's Master, the Lenian will not be able to see it coming. If the Master dies, the Lenian will lose half of their magic power, and have an overwhelming need to fill the gap in their heart. These Lenians are not quite considered Curse'd.

Curse'd Lenians are results from a Lenian killing their own Master, or choosing their life over the Master's life. Monstrous changes happen with the Lenian, and most lose what was the most important to them (ex. Love to look at things-lost eyes, climbed trees for joy-lost grips on hands, ran when ever they could-lost use of legs. ect.). All curse'd Lenians got a hole on their back and have a rank sent, making it appear as if they are filled with just rotting flesh instead of having human insides. some common Curse'd traits are the tail stretches longer, and they grow gruesome claws and teeth. Curse'd Lenians still have their magic abilities, but it changes to become "darker" of a magic (ex. Magic over love-changes to lust, Magic over luck-changes to bad luck, Magic over generosity- changes to greed. ect.).
     


Other info about Lenians:



Few Lenians come to Cressida without any mission, or forget the person they are supposed to protect. These Lenians are either very carefree, or very troubled and look for something to fight for. These Lenians have a very small ammount of their magic unlocked, usually subconsciously. They are unable to reach their full magic ability until they find the one they are supposed to bond with.

   

Q&A


   
Ask what you want answered and I'll add it here.


Question: How do the Mother Lenians get pregnant?
Answer: Their bodies are continually using their magic to make new eggs. They do not need to make love to become pregnant.

Question:What inspired you to make these?
Answer: Well, I needed a persona, but I couldn't draw human ears. So I made a fox girl, and decided to make her a character, and then a part if an entire race.

Question:How fast do they metabolize theobromine?
Answer: Chocolate poisoning? They have the same reaction of the species they are.

Question:Can I make a Lenian?
Answer:Uhh… Sure! As long as you remember Lenians are copyrighted by me, and you credit me where needed, feel free.
So there you have it. Lots and lots of information about the Lenian Species. I tried to sum it up the best I could, but there are a lot of things to cover about Lenians still.

If you have any questions, or if I made some mistakes, or if you just want to talk, Comment! All comments are welcome ^^

That's how most of my races started out as well, a random OC I came up with.

Pretty informative, thanks.
