NEW LINEART CONTEST. SEE PAGE 7 FOR DETAILS
Ever wonder how the Northern Lights came around? You can thank these little creatures. They get their name from the Stardust they collect in the lanterns around their neck, using it to light the way of the lost. During times of celebration, the dust is released, giving the lights their. well. light. Their 'wings' help them to stay up and glide on air currents, depending on which hemisphere they are in.
Star Catchers can be found in both the Northern and Southern hemisphere in places away from cities. Both have grown adapted to the environment there. Both have wings they use to glide on air currents, their long tails aiding them in "flight" All have a container, often times a lantern around their neck holding a special item holding the stardust. If needed, they can use it to create actual wings of sorts if the air currents aren't enough to stay up or get up. It is very rare however for them to use the stardust in a way other than just for light, despite being able to harness it's abilities. All have four large ears, bird like front feet, and small cat like back feet, as well as small horns atop their head.
NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
Star Catchers in the Northern Hemisphere have short fine fur, with a line of feathers on their tail. these feathers are folded upwards until they take to gliding in which they unfold revealing two sets of feathers that lay flat on either side of the tail to help guide them. They are more fond of using scarfs and other materials to carry their lanterns. They are more fond of people, and are starting to be seen although few in cities around street lights, attracted to them. These are fond of collecting anything shiny, much like the southern hemisphere star catchers, but like to keep quiet to stay in hiding.
SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE
Star Catchers that call the Southern Hemisphere home have much thicker fur, and long whiskers with a mane leading down to their tail. towards the end of their tail, it ends in a long tuft of fur that although isn't the best in gliding, it does keep them warm against the colder weathers. These ones are a bit more uncommon to see near people at all, and like to use things like string to carry their lantern. The Star Catchers in the southern hemisphere are also fond of collecting noisy things like bells and coins that clink together.
LANTERNS AND STARDUST
The containers used can come in all shapes and sizes, though it is rare to see them differ from the common large lantern around their neck. Every Star Catcher has a special item inside the lantern they use to keep stardust. it can be anything from a rock to a feather, and it becomes the lifesource of dust in the lantern. more can be collected and used, but they never use what dust is on the item. All Star Catchers are attracted to different stars and star dust, meaning the colours can vary from catcher to catcher. At times of great celebration, or migration, they gather together, and the stardust that is left creates something similar to the Northern Lights. It is extremely rare to find one without a lantern or other container for the stardust, though it has been seen. ones that hold extreme power and control over the dust, able to keep it without a container, and use it as they please.
