Overview
Ruled by the Benevolent Theocratic Eternal Monarchy, the Amaranthine are a race of ancients who remember walking the planet Eden before man. Though they appear to be just like humans, their physiology is vastly different on a genetic level.
History
REDACTED
Biology
Amaranthine Physiology:
Some of the Amaranthine have evolved due to their close proximity to a primeval energy, believed to be one of the ultimate foundations of the Universal Expression of Energy, along with their superior technology, into beings of genetic stability and evolutionary perfection. The denizens of New Eternia are stronger, faster, and smarter than homo sapiens, despite their resemblance to the same. The body of an Amaranthine is mostly energy without a trace of death. For example: Cosmos claims to be over 20,000 Eden years old.
Reproduction
Only the Prime Amaranthine chooses which Amaranthine can reproduce.
Diseases
See Weaknesses.
Technology
Their technology is highly advanced and is viewed as bordering on magic on some planets. In comparison to Eden, their technology is at least 100 years beyond ours, if Eden were to actually apply themself.
Culture
REDACTED
Law
The Benevolent Theocratic Eternal Monarchy issues the laws. The people pray for a single day before voting and then they vote on whether to accept the law.
Politics
Ruled by the Benevolent Theocratic Eternal Monarchy, the Amaranthine are dedicated to a democratic monarchy, allowing them to choose the next ruling family. Sometimes it will be the child of the previous monarch and sometimes it will be a new family.
The Benevolent Theocratic Eternal Monarchy is not just a single person but the entire immediate family, no more than seven (7). The Prime Amaranthine is the head of the ruling family and they rule all Amaranthine, everywhere. With the family acting as boosters, the Prime Amaranthine is able to reach any Amaranthine through the Eternal Mind Link, no matter where they are in the universe.
Powers
Some have no inherent superhuman abilities. Those Amaranthine with superhuman abilities choose to specialize in particular powers and attributes. Some of the Amaranthine show the following powers:
Cosmic Energy Control: All Amaranthine can control & project cosmic energy from their hands and eyes. Some are more powerful than others and some require specialized equipment to control it.
Immortality: The Amaranthine are functionally immortal; they cease aging physically near the age of 30. Unless they fall in battle, they are immune to the ravages of time, and could easily live for thousands upon thousands of years.
Invulnerability: Some of them are resistant to blunt trauma like punches, kicks, and blows from weapons like bats and maces, though not -completely- immune; unless the blows are dealt by a being with similar or greater strength, there isn't a chance of injury.
Psionics: All possess psionic abilities to varying degrees. This allows all Amaranthine to join the Eternal-Mind, even their "branch cousins" (those who are not pure Amaranthine).
Super Immunity: Amaranthine have an extremely evolved immune system. They have developed immunity to a number of toxins and diseases.
Super Reflexes: Some of the Amaranthine have a highly developed nervous system. Their reaction speed and hand-eye coordination is superior to that of a normal human. They can move fast enough to dodge a bullet before the gun fires and react with blinding speed.
Super Speed: Likewise all Amaranthine possess enhanced locomotive abilities well beyond the finest physical specimen amongst the mortal worlds. Many are such that they can move, think and act in picoseconds compared to a baseline human in terms of quickness and agility.
Super Stamina: Their stamina and endurance might far exceed that of a human. An Amaranthine may be able to manage their stamina on a certain amount of rest and sustenance (more than minimal) so that it seems they are able to constantly function, though this is not entirely the case. Tied directly to their strength and invulnerability, even their immunity to a certain extent, they can actually function at peak efficiency for almost 48 hours before needing to eat and rest.
Super Strength: Some are naturally stronger than that of a human man or woman of their build and stature who engages in regular intensive exercise. Their strength can be measured by their ability to lift hundreds of tons.
Abilities

Weaknesses
Midi-Nillicixoma: Amaranthine are vulnerable to a substance called Midi-Nillicixoma. Its origin is from a time when one of their number got tired of living and tried to create a substance that could kill his kind. It worked and Midi-Nillicixoma was created. Its effects are toxic only in sustained amounts or after explosive exposure. The average Amaranthine can be slain by an application of Midi-Nillicixoma from a Midi-Nillicixoma blast or bomb. Midi-Nillicixoma is hard to come by as the recipe, the lab it was developed in, and the body of the one who developed it, were all destroyed.
Habitat
Habitat: Eden standard.
Gravity: Eden standard.
Atmosphere: Eden standard.
Population: About 10,000.

Trivia
According to Genesis, the Amaranthine are actually incredibly powerful living ideas and their planet is actually an archetypal world of Platonic ideals: Cerebrale is a physical representation of the idea of Freedom, Grim Reaper of Decay/Death, Neptsidon is Change, etc.
