Homebrew Celestial (League of Legends) Species Details
SORAKA FLOODED THE DEAD FLESH WITH ALL THE power she could give, pushing through the pain. Coils of emerald light wound their way up the girlʼs arms.
The spear dropped to the ground. As Soraka worked, she watched the skin fade through black, red and purple to its proper dusky color... The girl turned away. She was silent a long time.
“Where, then?” she said at last, her voice rough. “I canʼt go home. I canʼt go back to them. Where else would I go?” Soraka smiled. “The world is vast. Your paths are many. I can help, if you let me.”
—Katie Chironis, Halfway Between the Stars and the Earth
HOPE. WONDER. INSIGNIFICANCE. IMAGINE WHAT THEYʼLL feel when I complete the stars.

Hands of Fate
Celestials are the weavers of destiny, with the power to guide fate toward its course. From the domain of the Celestial Realm, fully-powered Celestials exercise the breadth of their influence. Celestials, knowledgable in the different threads of fate, aim their efforts in preserving the multiverse's longevity. This might be interpreted as goodness or benevolence, but it is perhaps more accurate to acknowledge Celestial actions as being beyond mortal grasp. Indeed, some Celestials pursue more ambivalent strands and developments, such as creating change for change's sake.
Aspects and Visionaries
A specific type of Celestial exists, residing and originating in a plane called Targon Prime, known as Aspects. The Aspects personify a concept, such as war, justice, or change. These
concepts evolve through mortal affairs. At times that necessitate widespread transformation, or if a mortal proves themselves worthy in the ritual of Ascension, an Aspect comes
down and merges with a mortal. In this form, an Aspect can be destroyed by a being of equal power, or the Aspect may choose a different mortal host.
Humanity’s Guardians
Some mortal faiths are based in the worship of Celestials. But most followers have not born witness to an actual Celestial, nor have they seen their direct influence. Nonetheless, Celestials may take a hands-on or hands-off approach to helping humans. Stories around Mount Targon spread of a Celestial who sacrificed her immortal, animalistic form and exchanged it for corporeality—embracing all the weaknesses of humanity to better serve them. For all the cruelty of mortals, it seems there are entities dedicated to saving them.
