Dellen

Dellen [de-len]
Water, Glass, Human Protection, Human Creation

❧ Played by Aviy
Appearance: Female and human, roughly in her 40's and too thin. She has pale skin and hair, but the coloring is just a little inhuman. The main color to her is a pair of incredibly deep blue eyes. She wears loose, off-white, Grecian-style clothing that makes her look both paler and smaller than she is. Her hair is often in disarray, and her overall appearance often appears untended.
Despite looking small, underfed, and wafty, when Dellen isn't having an episode, she has a very commanding and warm presence. There is, at all times, a surprising 'weight' about her that marks her unmistakably as divine.

Characteristics: Nurturing, monogamous, lesbian, obsessive, demanding, needy, devoted, nonfatal self sacrifice, yandere.

Likes: Faithful loving monogamous relationships, being understanding of her, sacrifice for the betterment of others, expressions of love (even twisted ones).

Dislikes: Death (human only), poly/orgies/unfaithfulness, material selfishness, rejection, lack of understanding, talking badly about humans, nature.
Shrine: Pale sandstone slab at ground level, behind it is a stack of precarious sandstone making a narrow pillar. On top of the pillar is a large bowl (but with cracks instead of bubbles) filled with crystal clear water.

Ritual: Stand on the slab and place your (CLEAN) hands in the bowl to get her attention. Once the agreement is made, place your sacrifice on the slab and sprinkle some water from the bowl onto it.

The Castle of Nations, th-the theme park I used to work in, there was some magic that brought us all to life. But away from here...

I. I have s-something that can... Th-There's something inside of me and it's dangerous and it wants to h-hurt people and I'm scared, I don't... I don't want it, I don't want that power.

canihelpyou: (I am so hungover right now)

B-But they're alive. They have a... A will of their own.
canihelpyou: (Showdown)

[personal profile] canihelpyou 2012-01-07 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
...Isn't that...

They're trying to live. Just like we are. I-Is that... You want us to kill them, and I know, I know people need to eat a-and they're like food too, I know that you have to fight to protect the people important, and there's no way I'd let them kill anyone here! But at the same time... I. I can't see the difference...
canihelpyou: (Lightbulb)

...

Miss Dellen, the girl that killed me... She didn't have her own mind either. Sh-She... She was sick, and angry, she was so angry that everything was... To her it was the same, she could only destroy. But... I don't think she was a bad person. Because... There was more to her, all she wanted to do was destroy but underneath that anger there was still a girl, someone frightened with her own will. What if there's more to these creatures, underneath that?
canihelpyou: (Not a scarecrow no fire plz)
