 Don't be so sure.

She could be a construct of one of these races. Or a former citizen.

Those stuck me as slightly racist.

Generally speaking, a large percentage of the people who live in the time of the period of the fifth root race are part of the fifth root race. However Blavatsky also opines that some Semitic peoples have become "degenerate in spirituality". She asserted that some peoples descended from the Lemurians are "semi-animal creatures". These latter include "the Tasmanians, a portion of the Australians and a mountain tribe in China." There are also "considerable numbers of the mixed Lemuro-Atlantean peoples produced by various crossings with such semi-human stocks -- e.g., the Wild Men of Borneo, the Veddhas of Ceylon, most of the remaining Australians, Bushmen, Negritos, Andaman Islanders, etc."[25] All these aforementioned groups mentioned by Blavatsky except the purported "Wild Men of Borneo" (claimed by P.T. Barnum to be Dayaks of the Malayan race from Borneo, but who actually were two Caucasian mentally retarded dwarf brothers from Connecticut) are part of what was in the late 19th and most of the 20th century was called the Australoid race (except for the Bushmen, part of the Capoid race), both of which races, as noted above, were believed by traditional Theosophists to have been descended from the Lemurians.

 Ah, white men in the 1800s being racist. Go figure.

Anywho, if you look past the racist mysticism, the theory of Jones being a product of one of these races (probably the energy spirit race)

Well, apparently, my ancestors managed to flee the sinking their island home.

Yours were fifteen foot tall dinosaur punching giants.

I'm enjoying a book entitled The Solar System, by Arthur E. Powell.

It's quite interesting.

People/beings/humans have three bodies..

Physical.. Astral.. Mental.

It talks about the different kinds of people who had different qualities..

Example:

The Orange Group, which had individualized through vanity in the Fifth Round, were mostly born into city populations, drifting together by similarity of tastes and contempt of others, though their vanity led them to quarrel among themselves.

Separateness became much intensified, and the mental body strengthened in an undesirable way, becoming more and more of a shell, shutting out others.

As they repressed animal passions, the astral body grew less powerful, animal passions being starved out by hard and cold asceticism, instead of being transmuted into human emotions; sex-passion, for example, being destroyed instead changed into love. Hence, life after life, they had less feeling, and physically tended towards sexlessness. Whilst tended toward individualism at a high point, and this lead to constant quarrels and rioting.

Pride grew stronger, and they became without pity or remorse.  

Also, you were once a rock. Then a plant. Then a animal. Then one of these. Then eventually a human.

Souls gradually trickling upwards..

It's mostly snobby classism and racism.

If it weren't such a strange and interesting concept, It'd totally never look at it again..

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 According to that. Other sources say my ancestors were purple-skinned, hermaphroditic egg-laying zoophiles.

On the up side, the information on Lemuria and Mu and Meropis and other imaginary lands will make for a heck of an interesting read on the Warriors of Myth wiki.

You...do know I added locations, right? Asgard, Atlantis, Ruritania, etc...

You should go check that out.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

...fascinating.

I must have somebody make a picture of this Japanese demon for me!

Or, uh, maybe you can make more sense from this link.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Oh, I though it was the one with the eyeball in it's butt.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

 Hehehe...no, I think there's quite enough of THAT demon on the Interweb.

No, the demon to which I refer is the Obariyon. A clever shapeshifter that likes to cling to the backs of unwary victims and increasing its weight, often until the carrier is unable to carry it, and is crushed. And it spends most of its time invisible, so most Obariyon victims often don't even know what's attacking them.

Not to mention, should you manage to rid yourself of it (which is next to impossible without the aid of magic or divinity), it often rewards your efforts by bursting into a pile of money! And what do we do with money? SPEND IT. As in, PASS IT ON TO OTHER PEOPLE. Making the demon very clever at getting around.

Just...too cool.

To me that could be the story of an old rock formation that has a shape resembling a humanoid.

And thus it reminded me of a song from Simon & Garfunkel.

"I am a rock, I am an island".
