Astral Senshi	The senshi of the Enlightened Ones, the Astral Senshi, are all native Atlanteans. Their powers are drawn from mystical forces (ether, whatever you want to call it) which are especially concentrated around Atlantis, as well as the force of one's own will. While they may not be as strong in terms of raw power, Astral Senshi abilities tend to have more finesse, more flexible applications. Also, Astral Senshi will almost certainly have some magical powers when they are NOT transformed, giving them a unique advantage. Physically, Astral Senshi have a distinct disadvantage, however - suffering from relatively poor endurance, reflexes, and survival skills compared to their Primal Counterparts.
Primal Senshi	The Senshi of Primal Forces are, by definition, Earthbound in origin. Their abilities are drawn from the Earth itself, and so they are strongest when fighting there, at their heart of power (Conflicts may take them to Atlantis, or other worlds/dimensions entirely. Hey, it could happen! ^_^;). Because of the nature of their abilities, Primal Senshi's attacks tend to be backed by more raw power than their Astral counterparts, but are less accurate or controllable. This is a general assumption, though, so bear in mind that all the senshi still have very personal, individual strengths and weaknesses.
The Brotherhood	The Acolytes of Marduk are the antagonists that threaten both kingdoms with ambitions of world domination. Each has been granted a power of chaos and evil by their leader, Marduk, and most are fiercely loyal to him and his cause. Their cult, The so-called 'Brotherhood of Redemption', serves as a front for their activities and provides them with the followers (*cough*pawns*cough* ^_^;) they need to fill their army's ranks, with Marduk at the head of operations, serving as High Priest. They can be either Earthbound or Enlightened in origin.
