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.

It is easy to forget these things. Do you want to make a sacrifice?

Yeah, but unless you want a story about fighting a monster and trying to save a lady, I'm a little short on ideas.

You could actually go fight a monster, and bring me it's lungs, heart, and ribcage.

Actually...

[D-deep breath, and pulling himself together some.]

Yes, ma'am. What clothes can I get for that?

Three full outfits, made of cotton.

That's not bad. Does it matter what kind of monster?

It does not.

All right. Looks like I'm really going to do this.

[After taking time to clean up from getting his back cut up, bringing the heart, lungs and ribcage of a monkey-thing. He'd try presenting himself nicely, but. Woozy from blood loss, whoo.]

...All yours, Dellen.

[appearing, and the sacrifices disappear]

Thank you, Kidale. Are you badly hurt?

I just had a lot more trouble than usual getting the bleeding to stop.

[hm]

What did you wish for these, again?

Well, I'd been hoping to get some changes of clothes for Becca and I.

I see. How about two changes of clothes and a heal, then?

Is that okay? I mean, sure, that would be good.

It is okay.

[spitting into her hands and rubbing them together until they glow. let's touching you until you heal]

What sort of thing would Becca like? A dress?

[Dellen is amazing. Best god.]

Maybe? She's drawn herself in one a few times.

[cute blue sundress for Becca =x something lavender for you undergarments for both are included]

Here you are then.

[Taking them, and bowing his head.]

Thank you. I think these will be perfect.

You are welcome.
