Coren (Event Only)

[oi_theoi]

(( OOC NOTE: COREN IS NOW A NEUTRAL GOD AND NO LONGER WITHIN THE HEADQUARTERS. ))

Coren Plasma, Birds, Illusions, Oaths, Lightning	❧ Played by Stormy
Appearance: A very pale, slender caucasian male who stands just taller than whoever calls him. His hair is a warm cinnamon, gently tousled, and inky smooth to the touch, and it falls in long layers, framing his face, stopping in a crop near his chin with several very long pieces coming from the back of his neck and falling to his rear. The longer ponytail of hair turns into feathers at the end, and when angered, his hair hackles and seems to break into feathers rather than strands. There’s a discreet illumination to his eyelashes and to the thinner portions of his skin in darkness and dim light that looks almost shingled the way pieces lay together. He’s usually in a uniform, the jacket a floor hugging double-breasted military style, lapels lined with feathers that graze along his chin. One hand is often covered with a large black leather glove, a single white owl perched on top of it. Characteristics: Distant, cautious, concerned, moody, reclusive, aloof, vengeful, distrustful. Likes: Characters who are able to break free from their emotional or physical chains and express or do exactly what they mean, grudges, feathered jewelry, bravery, protectiveness, attention, frequent visitors, those who sing, astrophysics, wings, those who have scars or something interesting with their eyes. Those who keep their promises. Dislikes: Wastefulness, betrayal, storms (especially lightning), injuries pertaining to eyes, nature gods (but not nature in general), insanity, things out of place.
Shrine: This god will make an appearance if you know his name and need his presence, or sometimes if you interact with the birds loitering around the area. For now, there is no shrine here. (( OOC NOTE: COREN IS NOW A NEUTRAL GOD AND NO LONGER WITHIN THE HEADQUARTERS. )) Ritual: You must call his name or interact with the birds to gain his attention.

Day 88, morning

[deretsune]

[ Having BRAVED THE PUPPIES!! a tense girl makes her way past the shrines...

...and stops to wander over to the birds, curiously. That's new. ]

Re: Day 88, morning

[confined]

[For now, there are just birds around the area, no signs of any new structures. They all look quite sleepy and content hanging off to the side of the other shrines.]

Re: Day 88, morning

[deretsune]

[ Cautiously reaches up to touch one, gently running a finger over its breast '-'a ]

Day 88, morning

[slayerofgiants]

[Well his mistrust of gods is controlled enough that he can at least check out the new god--

--oh, he offers bows and arrows and quivers. So conflicted.

Very hesitantly approaching the shrine. Yes, he loves birds, and they aren't acting crazy and violent. Carefully reaching out to one of the birds, very lightly brushing his fingers over its feathers.]

[ The blue finch ruffles its feathers, watching you. For now, there's no sign of anything but birds in the area, lurking to the side of the other shrines. A male's voice floats somewhere among the abstract aviary, and whispers in your ear. ]

It's fine if you just want to appreciate them.

Re: Day 88, morning

[slayerofgiants]

[Predictably, he quickly withdraws his hand and yelps.]

--Where...?

[LOOKING AROUND. You'd think he would be used to this sort of thing by now.]

Day 88, Night

[misterious]

[ New things always get her attention; and birds that aren't attacking the populace are certainly interesting.

Finds the smallest, least threatening bird and ghosts a leather-gloved hand over it.]

Re: Day 88, Night

[confined]

[ The voice that answers bounces around the room, and is soft and static filled. The bird flaps its wings and hesitantly hops away. ]

Day 97, Morning

[deretsune]

[ ...where did the birds go :(a ]

...Coren-sama?

Re: Day 97, Morning

[confined]

[ only a few of the birds linger, huddled together in the furthest corner of the shrine area. It's only after his name is called that Coren appears, poking at one of the smallest finches... His owl chirps to wake them. ]

I'm here.

Day 98, Night

[deretsune]

[ Perhaps a little later than she meant to come around, but, as promised; ]

Coren-sama!

[ ...Or perhaps it is somebody else. The voice is tiny, peeping, and there doesn't seem to be any other people in the shrine area at current.

Just an odd, tiny little bird. ]

Re: Day 98, Night

[confined]

[ The only response to the tiny bird seems distant but familiar. ]

[ The birds that are around are huddled close, away from the windows, and their numbers appear to be thinning. ]

Day 108, Very Early Morning

[cloak_and_sniper]

[ She's not looking very tidy at the moment but she's too tired to care and it shows. There's been no sleep for her since she relived her memory a couple of days back.

Barefoot, she pads over to one of the windows. There doesn't seem to be too many people about so far, thankfully. ]

Coren.

Re: Day 108, Very Early Morning

[confined]

[ It seems most likely, considering the lack of his presence and a few sleeping birds, that he might not come or hear her. If anything, maybe that static voice will answer her call.

But instead, a bird nudges out from the pile of others and then changes into Coren, uniform rumpled, It takes a moment to steady himself and stand straighter, and then he's back to normal once a hand touches the wall. ]

Jane Shepard?

What time is it?

Day 108, Night

[cloak_and_sniper]

[ Jane knows he's probably resting, but with things moving as fast as they are now she can't really afford the time to be polite and wait. Apartment 2B is still unoccupied and, though it only really has bad memories for her, it's quiet. ]

Coren.

Re: Day 108, Night

[confined]

[ It takes him just a moment longer to appear, he seems to be sitting up from something, and with him this time, a half circle chair appears in brown wood and he's tucked into the egg shape as he leans forward and places his forearms on his legs. ]

.. Jane?

[ A pause. ]

Did you sleep well?

Day 110, Afternoon, Apt Sigma

[cloak_and_sniper]

[ Scrunched up at one end of the couch, knees up to her chin. The bedroom door's open behind her so she can keep an ear out for the pair inside, they've only really managed to drop off at all from exhaustion and she knows it won't be long before at least one of them wakes from nightmares.

She left Nemo to snuggle down with Elliot, hoping the little bird might provide him some comfort after the events of the previous day. ]

[ It's just a soft static whisper that answers at first, before a small finch hops onto the couch on the opposite side, eyes glowing. ]

... What happened?

Day 110, late evening

[anoceanaway]

[exploring, pausing to watch the birds, quietly moving a little closer]

Re: Day 110, late evening

[ Just a little closer... ]

[ Most of the birds are out hunting, but a few stragglers turn to look at the new arrival with glowing eyes and tilt their heads to follow the movement. ]

[Singing to your birds]

Day 121

[anoceanaway]

[gathered up some branches and grasses and is painstakingly trying to pile them neatly]

[confined]

[ There's a quiet voice in your right ear, familiar, but wispy. ]

Right there is fine.

[ A single owl watching today where they had been so many birds before. ]
