"The Alpha star located in Draco, this white giant star was at one point a pole star in the past much like Polaris is today. Once known as the Judge of Heaven (much later than Vega, which star holds the original title) to the Persians, this star bases most of its lore from Egyptian sources thus theming this particular Cadenti! Though some further lore comes from Chinese imagery as well."





Personality

Though she hails from dry heat and sand, this Cadenti exudes a certain kind of frostiness that can be felt right to the bone. One sweeping glance was all you needed to get from Mesta and she would have her opinion made. On the surface, she comes across as cold, manipulative and aloof; almost calculating in each of her movements. Everything is done to get something she wants or needs, or even, someone. Femme comes across vain, spending a lot of time and effort on her outfits, right down to the perfecting details. Her particular interest lies in gold and jewels, but this is not unlike anything one would expect, for fineries are her favourite. As she moves, each step is taken with finesse - her body almost serpentine in motion, as though a great many years was spent teaching her to act like a queen. However, it is clear that the woman should be titled as such; the alpha to her constellation.

In private, Mesta is a little more relaxed. She adores her younger sister Adelia and is her self-proclaimed protector. She is slightly more distant from her other two siblings, Rastaban and Eltanin, only due to distance and time apart. To those she cares for, she can be thoughtful and almost kind, but still has a sense of roughness about her. She is firm believer in tough love and will not hesitate to act upon this. She acts like she enjoys her solitude, but deep down she craves attention and desire. However, due to the walls she has built around her heart, she has taken very few lovers in her time and believes she will never find her own mate - this is something she has come to terms with and, thus, fuels her frosty exterior.

Blood Boost Mesta is capable of activating an adrenaline surge in their body through the ingestion of blood. The adrenaline boost equates itself to the amount of blood ingested, ranging from a few seconds (a sip) to several minutes (a large drink). The adrenaline boost grants her added strength, stamina and perks to aid in sand manipulation. Blood consumed in excess will be rejected by the body and vomited back up. Coagulated blood will not activate a blood boost. Bone Dragon Physiology Mesta is able to transform into a dragon with a skeletal physiology.

Logographic Linguist The Thuban Cadenti is well versed in all languages that utilize logograms, enabling them to speak and write in any known language that utilizes them. Sand Manipulation This Cadenti is able to manipulate sand and small granules of earth which can be used to form temporary structures, weaponry and sandstorms of varying magnitudes. Anything made with sand will disintegrate if left alone/unmanipulated. If the user uses this ability while blood boosted, the user gains the ability to compact the sand into glass which can then be used for more permanent purposes. The user is only able to manipulate glass they have created while blood boosted.
