Wayja was a much esteemed and deeply idolized god of pleasure, justice and wealth were all crucial elements of his divine being and his personality was often described as self-indulgent and opportunistic. Often depicted as little, muscular, fair and bright Wayja was usually worshiped through alms and atonement for past misdeeds. Worshipers were in the minority and tend to come in the form of shepherds and hunters, but all were welcome among the followers of this god, but care must be taken that the right alms and atonement were followed. Wayja may have been very welcoming of people from all walks of life but was insistent that the proper respect be serve to him. Wayja had many lovers which doesn't affect the power Wayja provided, but lovers require require dedication and attention too and he was often between mortal lovers for much of his existence.
That all ended when he was among one of the deities that fell prey to the empress of Ilraven's ever-digesting stomach, leaving a small but devoted sect of followers that rankled under the oppressive system the conquered had to live under. They yearned for a champion..a symbol of their old way of life to rally behind.
Exousia Aheal became that symbol.
Half-divine. Half-mortal. Exousia was one of many mortal offspring of Wayja but only one of the few that benefited from his godlike potency but his mercurial nature was tempered by the upbringing Exousia received as a mortal to create an inspiring figure. She lived large, loved freely, and drank deep from the cup of life...She was larger than life, the type of person who nurtured the seeds of freedom and in another life maybe she would have had the chance indulge in a fulfilling life of merry adventure. Instead the girl, an angel as she learned her kind was called, was forced to take a stand against the mighty Ilraven empire by the wrathful people who worshiped her father and exalted her under a simple banner.
“Nolite pati regnum.”
That was the cry that they rallied behind but all it did was draw down an iron hammer to punish the insurgency. Exousia was forced to become a mighty warrior in no time at all, but her divine body and abilities could only hold out for so long before the 'resistance' crumbled around her to leave the confused and angry angel behind and it was decided that mercy would be shown. Since it was the hands of others that had lifted her up against her betters she would by bound by the hands of others until she learned to embrace a more...fitting mindset.
The armorers of the empire worked tirelessly to craft a unique suit of armor for the captive angel before curses were laid thick enough into the metal to fell any mortal that could be forced into it. Exousia though...she could take it and so it was forced on her. Clad her in harsh demonic hands that reacted to her actions and thoughts, to punish any behaviors that her handlers deemed unfitting and reward her for acting in a manner befitting a 'servant' of Ilraven. A new symbol for those who would rise up against the empire about what fate might have in store for them if they followed in the footsteps of Wayja's demolished flock. Now Aheal lives under a new banner at the discretion of the Big Sisters she is often beholden to or the nobility and royal family of Ilraven.
“Libero Nec Dolor”
Do not suffer freedom.
Seeking
Still a little bare bones, but primarily seeking play involving seduction, temptation, and corruption of one's values and mind. Aheal also makes for a great scourge of the wicked if pressed into it, plenty of ideas there as well. A good way to start thinking of ideas is defining if Aheal is reluctantly working with/for your character or acting against them.
More as I think it up but Aheal can be easily transplanted to other fantasy settings without too much difficulty.
Magic
Exousia is a miracle in and of herself and so it was decided that she would use that divinity to strike down the enemies of the empire and to keep the populace properly subservient towards Miria's will. To this end Divine Subjugation siphons off her divinity, much like Miria does her father's power, for use in magical spells that were seared into her mind when the armor was fashioned about her. They are as instinctual to her as the ability to tell who is in need of penance and who is not.
There was a time when she fought with a radiant morning star, using her prodigious strength to wade into her enemies with the stamina to raise her arm to crush an enemy's skull as often as her people needed her, but that is in the past and she favors an unarmed style now. Largely because her morning star was melted down when she showed too much defiance.
Ritual of Control Caster - A simple ritual used for a simple purpose, to bind a spellcaster's ability to use their magic to the will of the caster or one the caster designates, but this is an uncommon use of this ritual.
Orbs of Gold - A holy attack that summons 5 orbs of radiant force. Very accurate but not the most damaging attack since it needs to hit actual flesh and repels the target more then hurts them...unless they are susceptible to holy energy that is. In which case this attack can be devastating.
Negate Submission - A simple counter to conjurers and summoned beings but one that requires massive amounts of energy. As the name of the spell would imply, it is used to sever the control or pacts that bind summoner to summonee...which can lead to dangerous consequences for the summoner.
The Torc of Lords - Most do not know this, but Aheal always has this spell active. She might be an angel and have crimson wings, but they do not allow her to fly naturally. The Torc of Lords takes the form the thin halo of silvery light about her head which enables her terrifyingly fast flight. It also serves to weaken the wills of those around her without sufficient willpower and demand their submission to her radiance. Divine power is a neccessity for using this enchantment.
Shields of Howling Light - There are few capable of matching Aheal in combat considering she can fly and blast her foes from afar at her leisure...for those who can though, this defensive abjuration serves her purposes. Shields of bloody light circle about her body to deflect away projectiles.
The Six Evocations of the Scintillating Grails - Flesh, identity, intelligence, memory, sexuality, and willpower. The six grails of the mortal body which Aheal can selectively alter with these evocations. Normally this is just one or two grails for a situation, but given the time and motive Aheal can evoke all six at once to completely alter a person's body and mind. A corruption of Wayjian philosophy, to the amusement of her superiors.
The Thirty Sorceries of Void Absorbtion - Not a sorcery to be used lightly, by the time Aheal has finished all thirty invocations, the target of her fury will have been absorbed into the void. Return is...feasible but incredibly difficult for many beings since the void was used as a prison by the gods and it holds its prisoners dear. Those who do escape find that it yearns for their return and their escape is often temporary at best.
OOC
Please understand me when I say this, I like well-typed verbose role-play when on Aheal. I get English not being everyone's primary langauge and such so I'm primarily looking for the effort of being grammatically correct and spelling at least half way decent. No one's perfect after all, but tons of errors just pick at my brain and take me right out of a scene.
That said just whisper me if you have an idea and we'll see what happens. I do play with males but I can be a bit picky about which male characters I play with. Be interesting, stand out! Other than that...well..I enjoy being able to chat with people so if you want to talk an idea over, be sure to message and we can chat! I don't role-play as much but I definitely don't mind discussing ideas or fleshing them out with someone for later. Also, much thanks to Miria for letting me dabble in their big ol' sandbox!
Exousia tends to be a true switch on the pred-prey and dom-sub spectrums but has leaning towards pred and sub respectively.
