Arien

The Arien, also known among themselves as the 'Firstborn', are a sub-race of serafi, proud of their strenght, magical prowess and lineage: they were the first type of serafi created by Eliur, designed to be proud warriors capable of taming the raging elementals that occupied it before their creation.

Unlike most serafi, which focus on harmony and balance, the arien focus on discipline and war-like virtues. They value honor, strenght and courage. The combination of their incredible magical prowess and arrogance has blinded the arien, which revel in the glory of personal combat and consider technology and ranged weapons to be cowardly. As such, their stoic culture is simple and primal, relying on warriors and magic alone to sustain itself. It lacks the technology the other serafi possess. The Arien are not egoistical creatures and are usually willing to sacrifice their lives for other members of their species. They are led by a monarch and a queen.

While arien respect other races and won't attack without a good reason, they have a strong sense of hierarchy, believing that the serafi are the superior mortal race, with the arien at the top of the pyramid, alongside the demi-gods and akin to titan watchers.
