Galatea (PTC)



Galatea is the name of a Promethean Lineage. Galateids are created from the most beautiful parts their creators can find, whether from a single or multiple corpses. They are animated via the Breath of Life, and they suffer from an excess of sanguine humour. Their Progenitor was Galatea, brought to life by Pygmalion; in the famous myth, she was a beautiful statue.

Galateids are created to be loved and to love others; they crave society and human company, but despite the advantage of their beauty are often ill-equipped for such things, lacking social skills. Even if they manage to learn such things, Galateids suffer from the Disquiet just as as other Prometheans do, and humans often feel confused as they are drawn to and repelled by a Galateid.

A Galateid's beauty can be a source of inspiration, and for this reason they are also known as Muses.
