The Arcadian Charges

When Gaia formed the Arcadians from Shards nurtured in contact with her body, she divided those Shards into five varieties of being, each hosting a facet of her nature as no individual Shard could be host to all of them. These facets mirrored the five Callings and became understood as representative of the seasons of Creation (Which had yet to form in the chaos of unmaking the Primordials). These divisions of labor are known as 'castes' among outsiders, but this term is seen as limiting and misleading - they represent not a fracturing of purposes but rather a spread of various duties, and as such most Arcadians prefer to refer to themselves as 'Stewards' or 'Shepherds' of their aligned season.
