The Vermillion Clan

The Vermillion clan is a prestigious family of priests who hail from Arcadia, the root of priestly practices and studies. Noble and highly esteemed, their claim to fame is twofold; they are an old noble family with prestige and money accrued over a lengthy span and the weight of tradition, and they possess a unique doujutsu. They possess the Caesitas Lux, a doujutsu which has two powers; that of perceiving the world in an illuminated and clear fashion, and that of controlling the flow of time. It is an eye-power that requires extensive training and understanding to fully realize; most Vermillion never fully actualize the time manipulating powers of their eyes.

The power of that Doujutsu, and the clan techniques that stem from it, may be further amplified through possession of a certain rare gem that has been lost to the clan for quite some time; the Vermillion gem, a mere shard of which could permit a Vermillion to work wonders. Should a member of the clan gain possession of the actual gem once more, the results could be monstrous.
