Offended at her remark, the nymphs petitioned Poseidon to punish Cassiopeia for her insolence, which he did by commanding the sea monster Cetus to attack Ethiopia.

Out of been her gratefulness for her parents for raising her up, the princess decided to sacrifice herself. After her death, Athena placed Andromeda in the sky as a constellation to honor her.

Andromeda is a virgin race, meaning that they are not allowed to have a sexual relationship with men outside their constellation. Failure to obey results in deadly consequences.

Ara
Ara is a southern constellation situated between Scorpius and Triangulum Australe. Its name is Latin for "altar".It was once mentioned that the race was created by the Cyclops, where the gods first made offerings and formed an alliance when they were about to fight the Titans.

Because of the history of their background, their ancestor had somehow cultivated the mindset of been laid-back and easy going. Their pace of life is relatively slower compared to other constellations and this attribute drives people crazy sometimes. Especially towards those constellation that are cash-rich and time-poor.

Their focus on life is healthy-living, most of them became good healers and their reputation spreads through the world. People from all around the world bowed down in respect to their healing abilities. Even the original 12 have their own special doctor from Ara.

However though they are mild-mannered by nature, their durability in battle is not something to be underestimated. They are capable of holding their own ground in battle, and is able to put their healing skills into actual combat situation. But they prefer not to engage in a direct confrontation and is content to be the backup resource while the other constellations fight. They claim that they are 'too peaceful' to engage in battle.

Aquarius has also been identified as the pourer of the waters that flooded the Earth in the ancient Greek version of the Great Flood myth. As such, the constellation Eridanus the river is sometimes identified as a river being poured by Aquarius.

An Aquarius always carries a small bottle of bottle of sacred liquid that is mixed with their own blood. It is rumored that the water is a secret ultimate weapon for them, others said that the water inside is capable of causing great floods if unleashed. However none of the rumors were confirmed by them.

Nevertheless, this is one constellation that you should not think about messing with them. Putting aside the fact that they are one of the original 12, under that extrovert facade that an Aquarius puts on, they are trained killers who is good at using their natural ability of control over water to hide their traces.

An Aquila never hesitates to kill and is remorseless in doing so. They particularly enjoyed fighting against skilled opponents, but typically rushes into battle without a plan. For them the process of fighting is more exciting than whether they wins the battle or not.

An Aquila is the master of the skies, and he commands all birds, especially the birds of prey. Out of those birds, eagles hold the most respect for them.
