'''Callisto''' is the first [[Human]] man, the son of [[Maya]] the [[Aldar]] after Maya's rape by the [[Unnamable Horror]]. His twin sister, [[Sinope]], is the first human woman. All members of the human race are ultimately descended from the coupling of these two. | '''Callisto''' is the first [[Human]] man, the son of [[Maya]] the [[Aldar]] after Maya's rape by the [[Unnamable Horror]].

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, 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. | Callisto, along with his sister and lover [[Sinope]], possessed the immortal lifespans of the [[Aldar]].

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. | 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]].
