Cherished Items:
Unity Star Totem A mysterious object with origins beyond Earth. During the Initial Colonization of North America the totem was split into five parts and scatters across North and South America. This object is capable of great power once and is a relic gifted to him by his grandfather. At one time he had collected all [ 5 ] parts but in recent years the totem was broken apart once again. It is unknown to Ceiba what happened as he no longer has memory of the [ 3 ] months leading up to the event as well as the [ 3 ] months that followed.
Philosophical/ Social Viewpoint: As the Avatar of the Cycle he looked down at Humanity as a whole for their wanton destruction of nature throwing the various Forces into disarray causing the Rot (Black) to begin over taking the others on Earth. If left unchecked it would lead to the death of the planet. Though he still holds Humanity in contempt he strives to be compassionate in his attempt to bring the Forces into Balance on Earth.
Religious Viewpoint: Due to the nature with the various Forces of Life he practices Shamanism. He often enters trances to commune with the Various Parliaments of the Forces seeking guidance, wisdom, and strength. He has fallen from favor with all five of the Parliaments and is seeking redemption to once again become their Champion.
Romantic Viewpoint: It is difficult for him to be Romantic simply because he has worn so many skins that he can, at times, find it extremely difficult to relate to Humans. Finding many of their mating rituals and habits to be Bizarre and overly complicated.
Personality Ceiba is often described as being cynical and clumsy. He is also a man of many contradictions. He often seen as light heart and easy going yet has an intensity to him.
In costume he often seeks to infuriate others to the point of madness while maintaining a stern face. His use of transformations and abilities often have a humerus effect. While in Costume he does not filter his contempt for humanity. He fights not for the good of Humanity but for the Forces that gives life to the Planet Earth. As a result he comes off as much as a nuisance as he does a hero.
