When its a rainy day and you set up a comfy spot in your bed and write homebrew lore :)

Right now I am working on a Constellation: The Culchan.

The Culchan was first mentioned in I believe 2nd edition with the Temple city if Oxyl and the Culchan plains. This is a continuation of my Lustrare River Valley & Lustrated Temple Host/Lustrated Temple Host Empire project.

This is very WIP but I wanted to share the beginning of the constellation description. Definitely changes to be made, but Id love some thoughts :)

***********

Constellation: The Culchan

The Sanctified, the Cleansers of Chaos, Protectors of the Lustrum

The Culchan are the defenders of nature and the balance that must be held to preserve the purity of life untainted. Their legions full of strange purified chaos creatures and gigantic long necked behemoths The Culchan are surely the wrath of nature personified. Seers and Star Priests bring the interpretation of the Great Plan to bear with no subtley as the will of the Old One Tzunki is carried out: To bring back the natural order through purification, no matter who stands in the way and whatever the cost.

The Culchan more than any other Seraphon, and perhaps any race save the Sylvaneth, are attuned to life magic through their Old One Tzunki. During the early years of the Age of Chaos, the Slann Supreme Star Gazer Ka’Rapixca became stuck within his own mind upon discovering an ancient prophecy, the destination of his kins salvation, and new ways to fight the Eternal Enemy. Finding small spores of nurgle growing from their masters' nostrils, the council of Star Seers and Star Priests left in command of the constellation sealed Ka’Rapixca in his chambers to stop the spread when cleansing rituals failed. As the final Seer left the Slanns side the ancient mage-priest awoke, speaking before his eyes rolled back once again: “The Blood Moon and the Lustrum will cleanse all that needs cleansing, Tzunki provides as he is the master of water and tides, so as long as the water of the Lustrum flows and the Blood Moons Red gaze shimmers down, so then the Crow and Rat cannot fester in what is pure…”. Frantically the skinks began searching the stars and ancient plaques for answers, though to no avail. Months, years passed with no answers to the questions they seeked until finally a seer saw, no felt what they searched for: The Lustrum Node. With great haste the Temple Ships travelled the black of space towards the energy they felt before finding the Lustrare River Valley in Ghyran.

Hovering over the thick jungles of the Northern Lustrare River The Culchan temple ships observed through giant lenses from an ancient time, below they saw abundance of life. Human tribal communities flourished, the Slyvaneth hunted the forests and jungles, giant sauropod behemoths waded in the deepest parts of the mighty river that emptied into a great green swamp, and plains full of great herds overtook the southern reaches. Here the Seers and Priests magics felt amplified, at that moment the Hight Star Seer Itzli-Citalli pointed to a large lake in the middle of the river; the lake swirled with dancing rays of life magic. Of all the Temple ships of the Constellation five were the first to land and become Temple cities, the rest set off for other regions or realms in search of other nodes of great power to further Tzunki’s will. Tlacopan, the largest and strongest of these temple cities placed itself around the Lustrum Node and its lake. Within Tlacopan’s largest temple locked away their mind locked Slann even after what would become to be known as the Lustrum Ritual, battled the powerful infection of Nurgle himself or forever be lost.

i am retconning this for the time being as I begin to rework the lore of my temple host. To be clear, just the constellation is changing as I change them to Thunder Lizards who did not go to Chamon like most of the others, but to Ghyran and Ghur.
