Artesia is a dark individual. She carries a gloomy aura around her at all times. She wears dark thread robes, usually looking like a column of darkness broken only by her pale, snow-white skin.
She is of average height for an elven woman and carries herself in a very proper way. It may not be immediately apparent due to the heavy black robes she normally wears, but she is very muscular, as she works out regularly. Her skin shows very few signs of age, though she has developed bags under her eyes and some wrinkles around her mouth from her near-constant frown. Her skin has become paler and is always a little cold to the touch, her hands especially. She also has a small beauty mark under her right eye. Her hair is dark black, and she keeps it long to about her mid back, despite the fact that it always gets in the way while she's reading. Her hair has a white streak on the left side, and two dark blue demonic horns running across her head, she has taken to a bit of it back behind her head.
It used to be that she very rarely smiles, and that is still mostly true. But those close to her would find that her smile is very kind and genuine. People that knew her dear departed friend could perhaps tell that she channels Aracena Mithtanil when she smiles.
Likes || Reading, The Night, Quiet, Tea
)Dislikes || Loud Noises. Germs. Death. Spiders
Fears || Being abandoned, anything happening to her friends, Jishrim
Religion || Follower of Theodra, Respect for the lost Silas, Dislike for Skraag, Hatred for Jishrim
Valiant: Pretty good tenets, very respectable. Ill never openly look down on a Valiant followerVisage: His kid killed and ate Silas so thats gonna put him down pretty low. Dislike the idea of sharing knowledge only to a few though I will say im pretty chill with the lying and secrets stuff. Dragons are cool too, does Visage still do that?
Ignis Synnove: The face of the mongrel dog inquisition. One of the worst gods on the pantheon if not for Skraag and Jishrim. "Respect those who are wealthy" what a joke. Only worship the light? With tenets like these its no wonder every one of her followers are the most insufferable people on all of Altera. The only positive about Ignis is that shes a woman. And at least if the Ingites started a mage war itd end in 5 minutes and id never have to listen to "For the Light" ever again. Maybe focus on Mr.SpiderMcKillsAlot and the dead guy on your pantheon and give the mages some slack. Easy D tier
Skraag: Have to hand it to Skraag. Aesthetically a very cool god. Skeletons are kind of hot. Its a real shame Skraag is so gross, evil also. Maybe if Skraag made his followers take a bath daily theyd get out of D tier, oh and chillax on the murder also.
Theodra: Easy S tier. The most respectable of all the gods. Each of her tenets are about self-improvement, protecting your family, and seeking out evil to destroy it. If all the divine fought each other Theodra would easily defeat all of them, not even a question.
Jishrim: F tier. I do not need to elaborate.
Korog: Perhaps I would respect Korog and her followers more if I had ever met one. But aside from Frost I really havent. Maybe they're all too busy crafting. She sure seems cool, hard work, protect your name and all that. But maybe they should take some time off the forge and socialize or something.
Sallana: Sallana is an interesting god. But im not very into polyamory, thats cool if you are, but its not for me. Also very much not into the "Worship only me" stuff, a divine isnt that great if you cant also worship Theodra alongside them.
Grey Lady: The most aesthetically cool Goddess in the pantheon. Sorry, Theodra. Wish shed be a bit more chill with mages but ill get over it.
Jax: Lady Jax, the goddess of luck and the sea. Im not much for gambling, and I get sea sick after the exodus. But a pretty chill god nonetheless. Hopefully, this Visage rivalry thing ends well.
Shalherana: If you hate Shalherana, it is probably because youre a bad person.
Strengths ||
-Fiercely Loyal: If you are Artesia's friend, you will have to do much to shake her off. She cares deeply for her friends and does everything she can to keep them safe.
-Intelligent: Artesia is quite well-read, and knows a fair bit.
-Quick Learner: Picks up on things very quickly, shes a note taker, and writing helps her lock things in forever
Quirks ||
- Misandrist: Artesia does not care for men. They are just... less. They're gross looking, usually have bad personalities, less intelligent, she could go on. She doesn't outright hate them, but she values the opinions of women over theirs and doesn't make friends with very many. And of course, the idea that an all-powerful divine would choose to present themselves as a man is quite humorous to her. OBVIOUSLY, Jax and Korog are women. Why wouldn't they be?
- Does not care about Human royalty or nobility: Keeping track of the nobility and lineage of a race that dies of old age in a blink of an eye is simply a waste of time. Humans can do plenty in their short lives, but why would Artesia care about a Queen when she's going to die and be replaced by another in no time at all? They aren't fit to rule over Altera. And obviously, men being the lesser gender aren't really fit to rule either.
Weaknesses ||
-Obsessive: Artesia is very obsessive. When there is something she is set on it is all-consuming.
-Deeply traumatized: The trauma of seeing Aracena suffer for so long, and the horrific reminder of their last meeting is a deep scar on Artesia.
-Selflessness: Artesia does not care much for herself. She would much rather have herself suffer than see the people she cares about suffer instead.
-Impulsive: A bit to quick to act on things, she's trying to do better, but she often gets herself in trouble by not thinking things through.
Artesia has an extreme thirst for knowledge, and a desire to know all things that the world keeps secret. Above all other things, she has the mission. She is usually very solitary and keeps to herself. She can be very difficult to talk to because of the walls she puts up, but she is an incredibly loyal friend. She cares deeply for the realm and wants to protect it.
Artesia was a very broken woman for a very long time. . . But shes doing better. She came to a village called Thiil a very lonely and scared girl, but a wonderful friend came into her life and helped her learn the beauty of the world, and of loving other people. That woman was hurt, corrupted, and ruined, by The Mad One. For many years after that Artesia wandered, lost, alone again. It took much self-reflection but she relearned the things that her wonderful friend taught her, and she has started to live again, for her.
True to her time as one of Thiil's librarians, Artesia has a thirst for knowledge, she wants to know more, know everything. She tries her best not to get too obsessive over new books and unfamiliar libraries, but sometimes she gets a little carried away. She is a very good researcher and is excellent at running through tomes and scrolls.
She keeps very high walls around herself, and rarely lets anyone in, though she has a particular weakness to any woman she's attracted to. She is a very loyal friend, and has a desire to protect the people she cares about.
While she has accepted her friends death, she does carry a burning lust for revenge. Her blood boils at the thought of The Mad One. Part of her quest for knowledge is an endless pursuit of the goal to kill him. Everything else in her life is a distraction from the mission. When she had nothing else she has the mission. Every step forward is a step towards completing the mission.
