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.

Ah...

That is... I'm Akito.

If I'm supposed to trade you for things, I thought it would be good for you to know who I was, and vice versa...

And, um... Also maybe find out what kinds of things you like to receive in trade.

...And maybe find out the names of and how to summon all the other gods too, so I can ask them the same.

[He nods, absorbing this information. Agito will be able to get offerings for her in trade easily.]

What do you trade in return for those things?

So if I were to find a small spot to stay in, I could give you things and you could help me put some necessities in it?

Ah, and what kinds of things can the other gods do?

It will work for cups and bowls though, ne?

[He pays close attention.]

What kind of things does Gerasimos ask for the alcohol? [Disinfectant, yay! *^*]

Ah... I suppose it would be easiest to ask... How do I summon them? I just have to hold the metal sphere for Zhen Ji, ne? But what about the others?

Can you make glass decorations, too? Things like blown-glass beads are neat! [And would be good for his upcoming Christmas. ;^;]

Ah... Thank you for the information, Dellen-san! It's very useful to know.

[:|a]

Do you like things like flowers?

A disagreement with flowers?

Ah- [How sad. ;;] Sorry.

Is that why there's no outdoors?

So you're the one who kidnapped me? Why couldn't you just let me be at peace? I've earned a peaceful afterlife. You could have brought in the 'me' that everyone else seems to know, instead.

Why bring anyone at all? If I'm dead, I want to stay dead. If I'm here, I can't watch over them to make sure they're okay.

I have loved ones I need to keep safe. Even if I'm dead, there are still things I'm sure I could help with. My soul would still be chained to the earth.

If you take ones who want to be left in peace, send them back! I'm sure there are enough other dead souls who would love the chance to come here. This place is nothing but a Hell to me! The worst kind of place!

So you've ensured that we have another life trapped in a lonely, miserable cage.

You're selfish. You've stolen away the last thing I had to look forward to. You've ruined it. You put me in a place where there's another him, yet I'm the one they look at as though I'm out of place.

Is it too much to ask to let me just die? If your children are all dead, then there's nothing left here for us to do except clear a tomb of what life still exists.

I've never claimed I wasn't selfish. This place isn't my home. This place has no sky. My future was with them. My life was devoted to them. In death, I wanted peace and the knowledge that they're safe.

This isn't life. I want to fly and play and be with my loved ones. These people here look at me and see someone else. I can't walk outdoors and roam the skies. It's dangerous to even find a place to be alone to think.

I'm not going to be grateful for this! We'll never be grateful. You brought us to a place where, if I ever want to see his face again, it's the face of someone else. Every time I want to see him I'll only see a face of hurt, because you brought the wrong person.
