Overview
The race known as Anomalous Gemini are what their name implies, by nature anomalous. The species has very little set in stone, with almost every aspect varying. Size, base appearance, and even the magics they use vary greatly from one Gemini to the next. The one thing that is the same with each member is their creation; being born of excess energies activated by some sort of event, each Gemini starts as a single being before forced apart into their normal form of Twins. Ageless and born without the need to eat or drink, the Gemini take up habits and personalities that originate from their birthplace and the magic that was used to bring them to life, but also evolve based off what they go through and the effect it has on them, including the influence of their own Twin.
Language
Auric is the language of the Gemini. Verbally, it is silent, as the Gemini use their arcane aura to communicate by manipulating it to interact with the aura of others in a way that forms different patterns that translate to words they can understand. Thid can be thought of as similar to thought transfer, but through arcane aura instead of directly through thoughts. In most cases a Gemini is born knowing this language, as well as the written variant which takes the form of vibrant and elegant images and runes when a Gemini uses their aura on parchment. If a Gemini uses this to write something down, they can store the records of an entire Era on just a few pages.
Both of these languages can be learned, but doing so traditionally takes a long time of training oneself to manipulate their aura in just the right way.
Appearance
Gemini are diverse in almost every way, from their general size to the smallest detail. In most cases a Gemini will take on an appearance which reflects the magic they wield, the magic which brought them to life. An example are the Gemini known as Sol and Luna. Sol was formed from a sun, amd thus his appearance is fiery and bright, his very temperature high enough to char paper just by touching it. Luna was of the moon, her hair and eyes taking on a silvery white hue to reflect the silver light of the moon.
However, a few key details always show who they are. These are the eyes and blood of a Gemini, as well as the Gemini Mark which every member of the race has somewhere on their body.
The eyes of a Gemini will always shine with their magics natural color, and will always glow bright when the Gemini is using large amounts of their power. Sol's eyes reflect the fire of the sun, shimmering a bright orange and red, while Luna's eyes shine bright silvery white, just like the surface of the moon.
The final point to identify a Twin is their Gemini Mark, each pair of Gemini having some kind of mark which represents each other on their body. Sol and Luna share a mark on the back of their hands, a simple tribal sun with a crescent moon in it's center. The marks always face opposite directions, and are always on opposite sides of their Twins' bodies.
Keeping these three details in mind, it should also be known that Gemini can even copy the physical appearance of other races to an extent. Records written by certain members of the race depict some Gemini taking the form of animals, varying humanoid races, and even a very rare few who had at one point taken the form of dragons, though their power was nothing compared to the ancient beasts.
Habitat
Anomalous Gemini have no set habitat, as who and what they are varies based off the area they are born in, as well as the energy used in their creation. From a barren desert to a lush forest, Gemini can be born anywhere, so long as three specific requirements are met.
Traits
The traits of a Gemini, much like their appearance, mainly vary between the different members of the race. Just as with their appearance, the location of the birth and the energies involved usually have an effect on their traits. Few things, each listed below, are set in stone
The first is that the personality of the Gemini is primarily split between the two Twins. Over time this can change, as one of the pair can effect and influence the other, as well as others around the Gemini can influence them.
Each Gemini Pair is connected with each other through a mental link. Through this they can communicate and even send information to each other. This link can also allow one to briefly glance through the eyes of the other.
This link is part of something called the Shared Fate Curse, named by the Gemini themselves. This curse, while linking their minds, comes with a massive drawback.
If one of the Twins were to pass away, the curse would take effect and take the life of the other. After all, how can one half of a single being live without the other half?
Primes
The Anomalous Gemini are a race of Pairs, or Twins. Each Gemini is born as only a half, with their respective sibling (or however they call themselves) is the other. So begs the question; what happens if the two halves become whole.
The answer is the Prime. Each Gemini Pair comes from a Prime, the being which split to make them. Merging to become a Prime is not something any can do, as it is one of the few things a Gemini is not born with knowledge of when it comes to their race.
A Gemini Pair usually only hears of this when their Prime decides, unlocking the knowledge of how to become the Prime within their memories. When this happens the Pair will make their own way to merge.
The Prime, when formed, takes on an appearance based on which sibling takes priority in the situation, and can only be formed for a few minutes before being forced apart once again.
This is something few Gemini will do unless their is absolutely no other solution to a situation. While the rather significant increase in arcane power is nice, the amount of energy it takes to maintain the form for even a few minutes takes its toll, and one if not both Gemini will be drained to the point of losing consciousness.
