Facets

The Facets are a group who sought to claim the power of the gods as their own, only to end up as their aides.

=Overview=
 * WIP; see Timeline.

=Abilities=
 * The Facets receive the Blessing of their patron god, though this is typically redundant.
 * Archangels are capable of intercepting and answering prayers meant for their patron god as well as prayers pertaining to their domains. Domains are more or less just determined by the Facet's particular interests and talents, so there's some overlap amongst them.
 * They can teleport to and from the Cosmos at will.
 * Arietis created the Lustrous Regalia for the Facets, with each Facet wielding a weapon that correlates to their patron god's respective Astral Weapon.

=Trivia=
 * The Facets are based on birthstones, specifically zodiacal birthstones. For the Ophiuchus, Cetus, and Arachne birthstones, stones were pulled from the priestly breastplate: a sacred item from which the concept of birthstones originated.
 * The Facets were initially based on monthly birthstones rather than zodiacal ones. The only characters to survive the shift unscathed were Agate, Marin, Jacinth, and Hecate. Of these, only Marin changed species.
 * The Facets were initially envisioned as a group analogous to the archangels. Rather than ascending upon death, however, the original Facets were sacrifices that appeared before the gods in such poor condition that Karkinos needed to create new bodies from them. Some of these original Facets were actually multiple souls sacrificed at once, resulting in amnesia or splintered memories.
