A star is a luminous celestial body seen in the night sky and possibly, for the brightest stars, during dawn and dusk. The closest star to Golarion is its own sun. Stars are often grouped together to form constellations. However, some stars are known in their own right.[1]
Most stars in the Material Plane contain portals in their cores leading to the Positive Energy Plane, through which mature souls enter the Material Plane and find their way to mortal vessels. These portals are fiercely guarded by the Positive Energy Plane's jyoti natives.[2][3]
Stars in the Night Sky of Golarion
- Alboras, a bright star used by navigators, whose rise marks the beginning of the Osirian growing season.[4]
- Cynosure, the pole star[1]
- Taru Seco, a binary system comprised of Taru Major and Minor; the second-brightest object in Golarion's sky[5]
Stars in Religion
- Asmodeus uses the Archstar as his unholy symbol.
- Desna makes her home in a palace on the star called Cynosure.[1]
- The Old Cults believe that the star Alboras is the home of a Great Old One.[4]
- Associated with deities granting their followers the Void Domain, deities may instead grant the Stars Subdomain.[6]
