'''Celestrian''' is a race of angelic protectors who live high above the world [[Protectorate]], in the [[Observatory]]. Their duty is to protect their assigned village. They cannot be seen by normal [[human]]s, however, normal animals like dogs can. Celestrians can see ghosts and spirits. | |||
The {{Hero 9}} of {{DQ9}} is a Celestrian who falls to world below and becomes a mortal, thus losing their wings and halo. Celestrians guard the people below in return for [[Benevolessence]] which is needed for the [[Yggdrasil]] Tree to blossom. Celestrians were created by the Almighty One to help his daughter [[Celestria]], prove mortals have goodness in there hearts. The Celestrians believe that once the [[Fygg]]s bloom, the [[Starflight Express]] will come take them to [[Realm of the Almighty]]. | |||
==Origin== | |||
{{spoiler|start}} | |||
A long time ago, [[Zenus]] the Almighty One is enraged by the sins of mortals and decided to destroy them. However, [[Celestria]], [[Zenus]]'s daughter, believes that there is goodness among the mortals, and begged [[Zenus]] not to destroy them. [[Celestria]] transformed herself into [[Yggdrasil]], the world tree, and vowed that she will not return to her true form until she is proven to be correct. [[Zenus]], while sighed about her determination, created the [[Observatory]] and new life to watch over mortals that lived in the [[Protectorate]], and offer the [[Benevolessence]] to the [[Yggdrasil]]. [[Zenus]] named the new life '''"Celestrians"''' after his daughter, [[Celestria]]. | |||

*[[Aquila]] | ==Named Celestrians== | ||
All English names of the '''Celestrians''' (except The {{Hero 9}}) uses a name of a [[wikipedia:Constellation|constellation]] that symbolize a bird. | |||
*The {{Hero 9}} | |||
*[[Apus Major]] (bird of paradise) | |||
*[[Aquila]] (eagle) | |||
*[[Columba]] (dove) | |||
*[[Corvus]] (raven) | |||
*[[List of characters in Dragon Quest IX#Pavo|Pavo]] (peacock) | |||
*[[ | Some Celestrians are only mentioned by name on their Guardian statues, such as: | ||
*The Guardians of [[Stornway]], Tucana (Toucan) and Cygnus (Swan). | |||
*The Guardian of [[Gleeba]], Vultur (Vulture). | |||
*The Guardian of [[Swinedimples Academy]], Noctua (Owl). | |||
Several Guardian statues do not elucidate the name of the corresponding Celestrian. Some of these statues are worn (like those in [[Zere]] and [[Wormwood Creek]]), but others simply do not list the name of the Guardian. The statues in [[Coffinwell]] and [[Bloomingdale]] are among the latter. Additionally, there are three statues in the [[Realm of the Almighty]] that are inscribed with the text "Celestial Sentinel." | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*After [[Corvus]] was defeated, most Celestrians are turned into stars and rise to sky; however, [[List of characters in Dragon Quest IX#Pavo|Pavo]] stays in [[Quester's Rest]] and continues to provide services for the player. | |||
