Homo Immortalis

Homo Immortalis are the biological apotheosis of human evolution. They possess incredible physical and supernatural power, easily on par or mightier than the New Gods dwelling on Earth. They were engineered by the Celestials from ancestors of Homo Sapien stock approximately 50,000 BCE. There are two primary tribes of Eternals-- the Forever People of New Genesis, and the Titanians who largely occupied Earth.

Earthbound Eternals dwelt on Earth in the city of Titanos. Some followed the Celestial edicts to continue their scientific research and others pursued their own interests. Strict breeding programs suppressed reproduction rates. A control group was created in an artificially-engineered demesne called New Genesis.

A 'lesser' form of Eternal, called Homo Descendus, were developed as wildcard experiments. These 'Deviants' were not part of the control group and were allowed to roam freely. With a high percentage of superhuman traits the Deviants successfully established a highly advanced culture on Earth well before the rise of any human civilization. They occupied Lemuria and resided in the eco-sphere of the Savage Land. Deviants were largely massacred by the New Gods ca 45,000 BCE after a civil war broke out among the Titanian Eternals.
