The world is a cold, cruel place woven in a web of stasis but Gaia manages to poke a hole in the web from time to time creating a creatures who spread her love and compassion where ever they go. Some people call them Beacons, some call them angels, most people don't know they exist.

There have always been beings that act as channels for Gaia's mercy in the world, some of them plants, some animals, rarely some even people. Unnoticed by most people, they walk the world making it a better place by simply being in it.

They all have the same mission: Be a light in the darkness. Where ever they go the touch of Gaia herself can be felt. Peace and life calls to all those who meet them. They can lift the weight from even the most haggard soul of the hopeless by just being close by. They are drawn to those in need, often healing the sick and helping restore the weak.

Not warriors or strong in any traditional sense of the word, they often need protecting themselves and are considered by many to be a valuable possession.

Far to often the light Gaia gives to the world is sequestered away by greedy souls who use it for their own ends.
