The lower half of this celestial is fashioned after a six-legged horse and crafted from porcelain, ivory, gold and silver. Sparks fly from its iron hooves with every step. Despite its delicate appearance, however, this chassis wards off all but the most powerful of blows. The sagittary's upper half appears to be humanoid, but is swathed so entirely by bloodied bandages that one cannot be sure what lays beneath. That is save for a singular bloodshot eye, either left or right, that watches from the bandages. The celestial brandishes a latticework lance in which a shooting star is captured, forever plummeting.
Planar Martyr. Tales say that each sagittarion burned its body and lost its legs as they saved fragments from the first star to ever die. In doing so, this order of angels hoped to forever forestall the entropy that will one day consume the universe. In modern times the sagittarions continue their futile struggle. They defend life wherever they find it from the simplest insect to the largest monstrosity. Every natural creature, it is said, has a sagittarion watching over its species. Sometimes these angels will aid heroes in defending the last of a delicate songbird, while the next celestial might trample all those that try to destroy a strain of destructive locust.
