SECTION FOUR: Abilities
Ability Format: x
Advantages:
+ Omnilingual
+ Partial Shifting
+ Flight
+ Travel Home
+ Walking Smartphone
+ Supernatural Beauty
Disadvantages:
- Elemental Weakness (Unholy)
- Aversion (Desecrated Holy Symbols)
- Magically Dependent
- Restricted Diet (Love)
- True Name Bound ("Anaphiel")
- Lure - Must comfort or aid the acutely forlorn in at least some small way, and cannot pass them by without doing so.
Spellcasting: x
Core ability:
True Form - Ana can turn into a glowing creature with a multitude of wings and eyes, which also simultaneously looks like a bull, a human, a lion, and an eagle. The human eye has difficulty pinning down which parts of it look like which kind of creature; any part of her true form not actively being focused on will look different when next observed. Looking at her too much can be disorienting or headache-inducing. She has the physical capabilities of all four creatures while in this form, along with the ability to levitate and maneuver midair on a dime. This form's size can be anywhere between half or twice as large as her typical human form.
Ana's mere presence in this form can be harmful to anyone sensitive to holy energies. Her entire body, as well as air breathed by this form within 5 feet, behave like holy weapons in this form. Injuries sustained by her in this form are always minor, unless inflicted through incredible force or with unholy weapons / magics.
Her true form fills sleepers and the recently awakened with terror. It cannot be covered by the veil very well, and is therefore liable to cause awakenings or experiences later suspected to be vivid hallucinations in sleepers. Those not well prepared to see it often suffer from panic attacks. Being exposed to more than one panicking sleeper at a time in this form will cause her to be recalled to heaven instantaneously.
Her partial shifting can add aspects of her true form to her human form. This can enable forms such as: a winged human with extra eyes, a human with bull horns and cloven hooves, a human with lion ears and a tail, a human with a lion/bull/eagle head, or a human with an eagle-taloned finger to help her get into annoying packages. Her partial shifting does not make her presence harmful to some people the way her full true form can, and does not make her substantially harder to injure.
Bonus: x
Core disadv: x
Nerfs and Flavor:
- Her restricted diet can best be sated by seeing love between others, experiencing love, or receiving love. She can eat food, but only if it's prepared or set aside for her as an act of love.
- Her particular brand of magical dependence is primarily satisfied with regular visits to heaven. If these are prevented for much more than a week, she'll most likely waste away and die. (Having her magic somehow drained out will also kill her per usual)
SECTION FIVE: Current Situation
Occupation: Not currently employed
Housing: None on this plane of existence
Wealth: a couple hundred dollars in cash. no income to speak of, but low expenses. Very few personal possessions
SECTION SIX: History
Date of Birth: Has September 25th as her DoB on her documents
Place of Birth: Heaven, she supposes
History:
Anaphiel's personal history stretches back almost as long as creation itself. They remember seeing some of the first humans and being excited for what those creatures might accomplish in their time on earth.
Much of her existence and purpose is shrouded in mystery, even to many of the much younger angels in the heavens. Such angels have varied opinions about her, her peers, and her philosophy, if she is acknowledged at all. Some find her so confounding that they assume she's either 'broken' or 'not a real angel.' This state of affairs can break her heart. She claims that this is a fairly recent development.
She has recently arrived in Polaris pass, taking particular interest in all the demon refugees from hell there.
