Difference between revisions of "Callisto (mythology)"

Callisto, along with his sister and lover Sinope, possessed the immortal lifespans of the Aldar. The descendants of Callisto, however, gradually phased out from their immortal state to mortality. [[Lucretius]], God of Philosophy and Knowledge, had predicted this as the inevitable result of interbreeding pure [[Chaos]] with an Aldar--the entropic energy of [[Chaos]] would gradually cause the Aldar energy to deteriorate over time.

While Callisto was on a hunting trip his son [[Anake]], angered by his mother's rejection of his advances, killed Sinope in her sleep, an event that would become known as [[Anake's Passion]]. 50 years later, in a rage inspired by the schemes of [[Thoth]] and [[Shaitan]], Callisto sought revenge for Sinope's death by murdering the sleeping Anake. Callisto then became entrenched in his own insanity.
