  nyx has the ability to control the darkness and the night sky. she can also control the stars in the sky and their brightness. she can turn into darkness herself, traveling in the form of a dark mist.
• // PERSONALITY
  mbti: infj-a
  
  nyx has always been the more obscure goddess. few people know about her. she's the goddess who comes to do her job to raise the moon and stars into the sky when the day ends - and as far as others know, she only had one consort, her brother erebus. she's usually seen as much colder and distant than her main offspring, aether - the personification of the upper atmosphere - and hemera - the goddess of the day. by the other gods and deities, she's known as the more introverted one and doesn't go to parties or feasts. she has a rather misanthropic exterior, though she is polite about it and tries not to come off as unbearably solemn. but she knows that she's boring and she doesn't care - or at least, she acts like she doesn't.
  
  nyx can be very judgemental based on first impressions. if you accidentally look like an idiot when you first meet her, she will just think you're a clumsy fool for a long while. however, if you seem confident in yourself, you will gain respect from her fairly easily. she can also be judgemental overall and can give into others' negative perceptions to influence her own, but not before analyzing the person first. nyx is prone to overthinking situations and getting frustrated easily with bouts of held-in anger. she is very powerful, with abilities to create darkness and control the night so well that she was respected (and feared) by zeus himself.
  
  nyx cares deeply for those close to her and has fierce loyalty. she can be very protective and because of this, she doesn't trust just anyone. nyx is very decisive and knows what she wants. she is dutiful and while she hates unnecessary socialization and small talk, she knows what she needs to do and doesn't waste time. she is actually quite understanding and can be quite sympathetic. she has a motherly interior that allows her to be understanding and it isn't hard for her to apologize sincerely if she accidentally hurts someone she is close to.
• // RELATIONSHIPS
  
  main relationships:
  
  phanes - phanes is the hermaphroditic god of creation, life, goodness, and light in greek mythology. he was the father of nyx and she ruled alongside him before she was given his scepter, which she gave her her son, uranus, which he gave to cronus, who gave it to zeus. she has a closer relationship to him, ruling over the gods side-by-side. however, they are quite different, as phanes is very warm and compassionate while his daughter is colder on the outside.
  
  erebus - erebus is the primordial god of darkness and he is nyx's consort and technically her brother as well. they spent their entire lives with each other and are similar as they both appreciate solitude and darkness. they get along very well and they can show more of themselves around each other. erebus is one of the few people that nyx is comfortable around and she knows she can count on him.
  
  hemera - hemera is the primordial goddess and personification of the day. she is the daughter of erebus and nyx and she ended up being most like her grandfather, phanes. she is extroverted and kind, loving nature and the sun. sometimes, her loudness can annoy her parents, but they know that she means well. nyx cares deeply for hemera and she tends to be an overprotective mother stereotype when it comes to her and aether.
  
  aether - aether is the primordial god and personification of light and "upper air", the pure air that the gods and goddesses breathe. he is far calmer than his bubbly sister and consort, hemera, and that's what nyx and erebus appreciate about him. he is optimistic, but not overly, and he is very laid-back with appreciation for cool nights and springtime. he gets along better with his mother than his sister/consort does, but him being a free spirit, he sometimes dislikes his mother's protectiveness. however, he understands why she's like that.
  
  dionysus - dionysus is the only person that nyx considers a true enemy of hers. he's just so . . . annoying. parties all night, always drunk, always flirting (especially with her), yet never being in an actual relationship. he tends to be clingy and extremely impulsive in his decisions, which makes nyx feel as if he's irresponsible and childish. she tries her hardest to avoid lashing out at him, but it becomes hard at times and she has lashed out at him several times before, making him more wary of her.
  
  minor relationships:
  
  chaos - chaos was the personification of the chasm. depicted as a "jumbled mass", they were the first deity to ever exist and create. phanes did the deed with chaos in their personified form and nyx was one of their first offspring of primordial deities. as chaos was commonly in the form of a literal void, nyx apparently simply "popped out" of the void. nyx has no real relations to her parent, chaos.
  
  zeus - nyx has great respect for zeus and vice versa. it is known that zeus is nearly afraid of nyx and her power, but they are on good terms so nyx sees no reason for him to be afraid of her. not quite close friends, but more than acquaintances. they have had sexual relations with each other on ocassions in the past.

  Name(s)-
  Ares, The Spoken Curse, Greek God of War.
  
  Race-
  God
  
  Gender(s)-
  Male
  
  Sexuality(s)-
  Male
  
  Appearance-
  

  

  
  Domain(s)/Character Theme-
  God of War.
  Primarily located in Mount Olympus but often considers his domains to be Lacedaemon {Sparta}, Mani, Thrace, Macedonia, and Thebes. (Often visiting these locations from time to time, frequently visiting the Greece city of Lacedaemon through mortal rituals.)
  
  Pantheon-
  Greek
  
  Personality-
  Ares is seen notably as overwhelmingly aggressive, catastrophic, and seemingly unquenchable in battle as he's always 'hungry' for spilling the blood of his foes. Because of this the mortals have regarded him as a slaughterer of men which was of course in a negative light but his fearless courage and overwhelming strength was idolized especially in warfare. Unfortunately because of this, Ares is known to have an excessively violent temper which often results in his own humiliation at the hands of other Gods who 'tease' him for having such a wavering lack of restraint. Ares visible presence through fables is quite rare so a majority of his personality remains to be unknown but often times when depicted he is considered to be quite forceful with his wordplay as well as boasting with arrogance in his abilities.
  
  Powers-
  Berseker Physiology -
  Like that of Norse warriors, Ares is known for being an absolute terror on the field of battle when he's in a senseless rage called 'Berseker'. Ares can empty his own mental restraints causing him to 'fly off the handle', nearly any sensation of pain caused by an opponent is almost completely ignored and is used to benefit his adrenaline, further pushing him to see the enemy before him dead. This also makes his patterns of attack somewhat unpredictable with his swordplay becoming erratic and like that of a barrage of never-ending blows that degrade morale.
  
  Melee Weapon Proficiency -
  Nearly any weapon used by Ares in direct hand-to-hand close quarter combat ranging from blunt, edged, or pointed weapons can be used with mind-boggling proficiency. Ares can master the martial arts that focus on melee weapons and can improvise and turn almost any object into a weapon.
  
  Supernatural Conditioning -
  Unlike some of the Gods, Ares has a unique ability to hold his own when it comes to things that require a ridiculous quantity of effort. Feats such as strength, durability, and so forth are insanely raised because of his status as God of War. Although this may be true this does not mean he can't bend a knee to some mighty figures such as Zeus and a few others.
  
  Residence or sub-realm within Ascendance-
  

  

  
  {Speculations, lonely whispers traveling from unsullied ear to unsullied ear of Ares and his residence upon Mount Olympus. Miles beyond scarred land, narrowing through treacherous ridges of mountain-tops lays a lone amphitheater that give the appearance of being war-torn from countless eons of harsh weather complimented through the unsightly image of chipped statues and crumbling walls. Within this Colosseum-esque structure inhabits none other than the God of War, rambunctious sounds of clashing swords can be echoed throughout the non-existent ceiling, piercing through the clouds as Ares practices his combative techniques. It's told that he spends hours if not days relishing in the heat of warfare against several foes that challenge his title only for them to become apart of the dried muck splattered amidst the arena's floor which has appeared to conform to an inky scarlet from the prior battles.}

  • Aphrodite: "Goddess of Beauty, husband of Hephaetus! Ha, or so he thought. Only thing that oaf is good for is making weapons or toys made for children! As for his wife however? Well she's good at many things that I know from experience.
  • Zeus and Hera: "Mother... Father... You've created me this way. You say I bring shame? I've proven myself time and time again! Fighting countless battles and gaining endless praise from mortals from down below, is that not enough for you? My 'wrath' has brought you nothing but fortune.
  • Dionysus: "Well, what's to say about my brother Dionysus? Never do I see him without a chalice of pristine wine nearby, as expected from the God of Wine. I find his overly relaxed and optimistic views unnerving. I wouldn't say our personalities exactly co-exist with one another but his ways of celebration are at best cherished." { Safety Hammer }
  • Athena: "You may have beaten me once through foul-play, but mark my words... Next time if you face me in battle make sure it isn't through someone''s spear. For your safety sister, i'd make it your own priority to stay as far away from me as possible.

  Fun facts about Ares ~ God of War:​
  • Ares is one of the 12 Olympians, or the 12 major gods of Greece that sat on the thrones on Mt. Olympus. Ares was hated by his parents because of his violence. He is sometimes compared to Athena because she is also a goddess of battle but she does not have the horrid brutality that Ares possessed.
  • Ares originated from Thrace
  • Symbols of Ares include... The Vulture, Spear & Helmet, and Boar.
  • Ares is an overprotective father, or just a parent you don't want to challenge by harassing his children. Example being Poseidon's son Alirrothios who tried forcefully have his way with Are's daughter, Alcippe. Unfortunately for Alirrothios he was killed by the enraged Ares, ultimately resulting in him being the first individual trialed on the Hill Of Areopagus.
  • Aphrodite is Ares sister.
  • During the Trojan War, Ares fought along with the Trojans and took the side of Aphrodite. He fought for Hector, an infamous warrior of troy. Ares continued to fight until he was wounded by a Greek warrior who pierced him with a spear guided by Athena. Mainly the reason he does not show any sign of hospitality towards her.
• 
  Ares is the god of war, one of the Twelve Olympian Gods and the son of Zeus and Hera. In literature Ares represents the violent and physical untamed aspect of war, which is in contrast to Athena who represents military strategy and generalship as the goddess of intelligence.Although Ares embodied the physical aggression necessary for success in war, the Greeks were ambivalent toward him because he was a dangerous, overwhelming force that was insatiable in battle.
  
  He is well known as the lover of Aphrodite who was married to Hephaestus, and though Ares plays a limited role in literature, when he does appear in myths it is typically facing humiliation. For example, one famous story of Ares and Aphrodite exposes them to ridicule by the gods when her husband Hephaestus trapped them both naked in a bed using a clever device he made.The Roman counterpart to Ares was Mars, who was known as a father to the Roman people. Because of this, he was a less aggressive and physical form, revealing a more calm and understanding demeanor.

[FTR]

Name- Corvina Hexen

Race-Valravn (creature)

Gender- Female

Sexuality- Asexual (gray)

Appearance-

Spoiler: Beast Form

Roughly lion-size

Spoiler: Knight Form

Domain(s)/Character Theme- Raven of the Slain, a malicious magical being who specializes in the misfortune of others and grows stronger with each heart it eats. i.e Kings heart gives vast knowledge and added magical abilities, child's heart gives Valravn Knight form, etc.

Pantheon- European (Danish creature, from Russia)

Personality- Corvina is a snide, mean, scornful and plenty of other less than approachable traits. Her contempt to those around her comes from a personal acquaintance with the greed, vitriol, spite, hate and aggression of humanity and her natural inclination to be filled with these same feelings. Her race makes her evil for the sake of being evil, it's just what comes naturally to her. Corvina features a few character quirks worth mentioning. For one thing, she's not a fan of dogs, almost phobically so, and will make a point to keep them away from her or kill them if she can. Just as bizarre, she has an affinity for collecting shiny objects, does the avian head-tilt when inspecting something along with some other distinctive birdlike mannerisms.
Though easily changed with a spell, she has chosen to retain her Slavic accent for whatever reason. Circumstance aside, her mien is marked by an air of confidence and hauteur, as well as a toxic malevolence you can almost feel in the air, which can make her a bit of a pain to interact with. Business-wise she assumes the most professional and deft persona you could imagine, keeping to a strict code of customer service and good word. Aside from a near all-encompassing enmity, Corvina also has an ingrained desire for self-advance. For this reason, you will never find her sitting idly or wasting time. Be it reading the torture manuscripts of Red Temple Priests, gathering information and supplies for whatever transgression she's in process of or reading "The Key", she'll always be preoccupied with something and probably make it very clear to you.

Powers- In terms of strengths, she is very agile thanks to her nature and can shift into various forms, as most fully realized Valravn can. Her magic is quite obviously maleficium-based as her vast repertoire of spells and powers mostly lack any which don't cause harm either directly or as a result. Not totally unfortunately, her forearms and lower legs didn't get the make-over the rest of her did when she transitioned from Vilderavn to Valravn. While having a magical property all their own now, her bird like feet and hands make things like shoes or writing quite challenging. Obviously, sharp claws, are nice for defense but little else.
That aside, physically she is fairly weak and fragile, easily thrown about and savaged by more close quarters oriented foes...if they catch her in her human-ish form. In her "beast-mode" she is vastly more robust and strong but less able to tap into the focus that is required for higher level magic, requiring her to fight as the inverse of her usual self. When taking the form of Valravn Knight, all her traits simply multiply in strength making her a much more well-rounded and tougher adversary. She regularly transforms between these at will, save for the Valravn Knight which demands blood once summoned. For this reason she's hardly in knight form, both for not having much need to and a relative disinterest in single-minded blood-lust.
On to inventory, she has multitude of hex bags and objects of power to channel a greater amount of magic without as much stress on her physical being, hidden in her, almost dimensionally transcendent cloak.
-Obsidius Amulet (gives patron-like control over shadows)
-Cloak of the Raven King (bottomless inventory)
-Philosopher's Ring (negates difficulty of material alchemy)
-Key of the Perditic Lords, The Key (very powerful, self-writing grimoire that syphons information from those who read it. Don't accept if she asks if you want a read.)
Are among the more powerful objects of power in her possession. Her line of work has several rare and sought objects cross her in the form of barters or payments for contracts and favors. They provide distinct boosts in power and potency to her attacks as well as give her abilities in human form she wouldn't normally have; such as flight.
Being a hybrid of sorts, anyone who manages to partially bind the Ravn part of her to them as a familiar will be able to totally influence her until she breaks free of the binding. At which point you'll want to be as far away from her as possible.


Relationships-
Baba Yaga - roommate and tormentor mentor. Corvina is rarely seen very far from Baba's house, because her without supervision normally spells bad news. The house is mobile, so it's not so bad.
Corvina is a lesser being when compared to the rest of the inhabitants of Ascendance; or at least she plays herself out to be. Be that as it may, she'll regularly allude to audiences with various Chthonic and Knowledge/Magic deities (i.e Apep, Hecate, Achlys, Ahriman, Isis and Thoth), alarming as that may be to some.
Residence or sub-realm within Ascendance- Baba Yaga's house, the libraries and crypts of Ascendance.

Appearance-

Spoiler

Spoiler: Hard-light hologram

Domain(s)/Character Theme- Tech

Pantheon- Science?

Personality- Deacon is rather freaked out by really big things, in which he uses his hard-light hologram to make himself look like a god. And when I say this I mean have a more human look to him. Outside of his hologram he feels naked and vulnerable, so he looks for large gods/creatures/what have you as protection from the scary stuff. He is really smart though, which if he did get in a pickle he can try to outfox whoever is trying to attack him or trap him or is just chasing him if it ever comes to that. He hates fights and stays away from them, and uses profanity almost never. If he catches himself he will correct himself and apologize for his harsh language. And try to correct others if they use it as well.

Powers- Can manipulate any technology he can get his hands on, x-ray vision that only works on technology, and can shoot a super-heated, high charged laser from his eye. I also a sick DJ

[Loki777]

Name(s)- Loki

Race- God


Gender(s): Generally Male, can shift forms.

Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance-


Common appearance:




Loki n family!: Left to right: Hel, Loki's daughter,(Goddess of the underworld) Middle:Loki Fenrir (Loki's son the wolf) Jörmungandr (Loki's serpent child, disclaimer: Serpent not to s c a l e)



Domain(s)/Character Theme- Loki is the God of Trickery
Pantheon- Norse




Backstory:
Villain. It’s a word used to describe those that break the rules, that take what they want, and care nothing for those hurt along the way. Loki, the trickster God, would say villainy is nothing more than a point of view.

The point of view of fools too mindless to seize opportunity.

Of course, with Loki now on the loose, the implications are dire. The end of times may be at hand. The final battle, Ragnarok, possibly on the horizon, for it was foretold that Loki would break free of his prison and herald the horrific final battle that would leave the Gods slain, the heavens sundered, and the world in ashes. None are more eager for that time of chaos than Loki.

Before his confinement, Loki’s malicious mischief managed to affect every God in ways both beneficial and terrible. Yet Loki’s most heinous act was in the death of the God of light, Baldr.

Baldr’s prophetic dreams showcased his own death. Fearful for her son, Frigg, forced all objects of the world to swear never to harm him. All save mistletoe. Cruelly amused, Loki forged a spear from the plant and provided it to Baldr’s brother Hodr. The Gods had a new favorite game, hurling objects at Baldr and laughing as they harmlessly ricocheted. So Hodr threw the spear, but, to everyone’s horror Baldr was impaled. Hel agreed to release Baldr from the underworld if all creatures of the world mourned the God of Light. And all did, save one crone who refused. So Baldr died.

When it was discovered the crone was Loki in disguise, the furious Gods bound him in entrails and hung a venomous serpent overhead. Loki’s wife, Sigyn, collected the dripping venom in a bowl, but when she was forced to empty it, Loki was struck, causing such anguish his thrashing would shake the world.


Personality- Loki has a genius level intellect and possesses a great deal of knowledge of the mystic arts,. He is also extremely cunning and skilled, an expert battle strategist, and highly skilled and charismatic manipulator if he wishes to be. Loki is quite capable of compassion and other good natured behaviors but its generally more convenient and more beneficial he has found for him, regardless of all the trouble it has caused him at times. Widely known as a trouble maker to say the least by many from the past. He has now long since escaped from being bound.

Powers- ^

Master Illusionist: Loki is a master of creating illusions., Shape Shifting: Loki can shape shift virtually into any form to take the appearance of said form.

Mystical Arts Master: Loki is a master in the Mystical arts, which allow him to do well, what many would consider unnatural or Godly, Magical persay in nature.

Divine influence: Loki being the God of Trickery is masterfully skilled in influencing or deceiving lesser beings and sometimes even equal beings.



Relationships- TBD
