(( 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.

[ awkward. ]

. . . . .

[ turning away now, sigh~ ]
You could choose something else if you wanted.

[ Awkward for him maybe, but she doesn't seem phased by it. ]

Answer me.

[ pfft. ]

I don't answer to you, Jane Shepard.

Which option works better for you. Both items are the same energy to create.

[ Oh yeah, that's right. She has no power here. Not just with regards to rank, either... Physical strength's only of any value if you're stronger than the things trying to fight you.

It happens suddenly, the tense silence after his words interrupted by an almighty bang and the sound of wood splintering and falling to the ground from the impact of the hit...

and then more silence. ]

[ mirthful smile as he hears things breaking ]

... Do you feel better?

[ A pause. And then the sound of more things breaking.

This might take a while. :| ]

[ Okay, he'll wait here, fingers lacing together until she actually feels it. ]

[ She's such an angry thing that when she does eventually tire and slide down the wall to sit on the floor, she still manages to give it one last smack with her elbow as if it was the wall personally that wronged her. ]

I'm - done...

[ He seems to debate if that's true for a moment before nodding. ]

One down.

[ His chin rotates lower so he's turned more toward her voice. He takes the illusion that's been sitting there all this time and it grows a little larger until slowly, bit by bit, he runs a hand over each piece of the compound longbow and then snaps it once and sets it to the side against the floating chair. ]

... Now?

I can't -

[ Grits her teeth, cradling her bleeding knuckle in her other hand which hasn't fared too much better from that, either. But she's not going to say anything about it. ]

- make a promise - like that.

You won't be able to protect others if you can't promise to be careful yourself.

How can you protect others if you die?

[ L-laughs, head bowing forward. ]

You'd be surprised.

[ not funny ]

Then that is something I have yet to learn.

I'll repair the wall as soon as you finish your second act then.

[ standing, he steps closer slowly and holds a quiver out, it's just as tech looking as her armor used to be, and he's got it in the hand by the strap, it's full of arrows. ]

Try to be careful anyway. You'll upset Nemo.

[ Reaches up and takes the quiver though she doesn't pull it from his hands, looking up and watching his face. ]

... I'll promise to try if you answer my question from before.

[ tch. ]

How about a different question?

No.

[ -_- ]

Then don't be careful.

[ letting go now, catch!, turning- ]

[ Urk-! There might have been a hiss of pain as she flexes her hands to catch it. Watching his back. ]

Fine.

[ vanishes ]

[ See, this would be the perfect time for a tantrum but she used up most of her energy beating the hell out the wall. So she's just going to stay here for a little while. Yep. :|

Looks like Sigma's wall isn't going to get fixed after all! ]

[ Did that wall just fall out of nowhere and slam into the top of your head?

It did.

It seemed stable before. ]

[ Oh. That's cute.

Not. ]

Bastard!

[ The sound seems to come from her omni-tool. ]

[ >( ]

I thought your name was Coren.

[ Reappearing, hair ruffled. ]

...

I fixed your wall.

The perseverance for asking so many times, and the resignation for not getting what you wanted.

... those were enough.

[ arms crossing. ]
