Chronomyst

The Chronomyst are a deeply religious and philosophical race who spend much of their time in trance-like meditations exploring the inner space. When one with their god, Chronos, the Chronomyst float through time and space at a different rate than that experienced by those not ascended. They have discovered a way to use this to access star lanes and accelerate through them.

The Chronomyst are largely composed of organic optical components, and their intelligence consists of light rays bending and bouncing through their internal lenses and mirrors. Bright light heightens their mental acuity and allows them to focus more deeply in their communion with Chronos.

Chronomyst society is unstructured. There is a never-ending gathering called The Conclave where individual Chronomyst come and go, reflecting light rays, defining and communicating the evolution of their culture and beliefs. The Conclave of the Chronomyst is one of the wondrous sights of the universe: a never-ending, intricate dance of colored light that every Chronomyst joins for some part of its lifetime.
