SERIES. Original Character; for Meja's history thus far, please see here.
HERE'S WHERE YOU COME IN. If you would be so kind, relating to Hel's Vision, please do me a huge favor and fill out the following (and here are snow leopard cubs for your trouble):
SERIES. Original Character; for Meja's history thus far, please see here.
OOC preferences |
→ CONTACT: See here.
→ BACKTAGGING: Absolutely!
→ THREADJACKING: Go ahead.
→ FOURTHWALLING: On the subject of Norse myth, let 'er rip; Meja's world doesn't match the myths exactly.
→ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Good luck trying to offend me!
IC permissions |
→ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Go for it. She's a little physically awkward from being alone for 9 years, but she doesn't really mind it.
→ TELEPATHY: Her runes protect her from low-level mind reading; you have to actually be pretty powerful to get through to her. But if your character is, have at.
→ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Meja can take a lot (otherwise she'd already be dead), so you don't need to worry about killing her, in general. She's sort of like a Marvel superhero in that way. Throw her through a wall and she's just going to be annoyed.
→ PSYCHOLOGICAL VIOLENCE:good luck being worse than mePlease consult me first, but in general, I'm always up for pup torture.
→ CHARACTER DEATH: DS character death is permanent, so no thank you.
IC characteristics |
→ PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: 25 years old. Meja is 5'10", somewhat tall for a woman but not gargantuan by any means, with dark blue eyes and fair skin. She has a medium-strength Norwegian accent. Currently, Meja is extremely toned from a solid month of training and various types of combat. She has platinum blond hair, so blond it's almost white, which hangs down to jaw-length. She wears silver-blue Asgardian armor (shoulder pieces and gauntlets), engraved with wolves, though it's usually glamoured to look like very simple clothing with heavy, knee-high boots. Her white hooded cloak is usually glamoured to look like a longcoat. She also has runes on her palms and runes on the underside of each forearm, which look as though they were burned or scarred there; more about those below. Her right forearm is completely wrapped up in green silk-like cloth.
→ DEMEANOR: Meja usually has at least a small smile on her face. But at worse, she looks neutral and never unfriendly unless truly, truly pissed off.
→ ABILITIES: Meja is protected by Thurisaz on her left palm, and Ansuz on her right, as well as Haglaz on her right forearm and Laguz on her left. They give her her abilities, which can be circumvented by things like anti-magic fields which are also very harmful (more about that at the bottom). She's versed in several types of combat, including martial, and along with her skills with a great-axe she is decently versed in fighting with short swords, broad swords, and hammers. In addition, Meja is a veritable encyclopedia of Norse mythology (and some other myths), owing to her childhood. She's a pragmatic planner and rarely rushes into something without thinking about it first. She speaks Norwegian (her first tongue), English and a generous amount of Icelandic. She also knows greetings/swear words in a handful of other languages. Click here for some of her smaller facts.
→ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Family. She'll clam up unless you're close to her. Otherwise she's very open-minded, but if you're a scumbag around her, she'll side-eye you. Also, don't hurt her friends in front of her unless you like getting punched by a freight train. (...she'll probably just restrain you, but still.)
Abilities |
→ THE DAYBREAKER: Spreading from the runes on her palms when called, she can summon the Daybreaker, a great-axe that looks as though it's made of sunlight — but pieced together like stained glass. The Daybreaker, in addition to being an incredibly formidable weapon (as a real great-axe would be), shines like sunlight itself, which helped her ancestors turn trolls to stone before destroying them. While it hacks away, like a normal axe of its size would do, it also burns severely and can set fire to things, as though it was spitting hot oil.
→THURISAZ'S MIGHT: Meja has what most would term 'super strength', able to bend iron without much in the way of effort. She can also take blows that would ordinarily crush a human of her size, and cannot die of, or be affected by, mundane poisons or diseases.
→ANSUZ'S GRACE: She can fight, and run, for hours without becoming tired. She's also not affected by weak magic — it takes something substantial to punch through her abilities.
→HEL'S VISION: Her Vision comes from Haglaz on her right forearm, given to her by the goddess Hel to help her survive Ragnarok. The runic vision allows her to see: strong magical auras, spirits, things slightly phased out of reality, spots where people have died (marked by dark fog for recent deaths, and mist for older deaths), and shadowy remnants of almost-mortal wounds on the living (a shadowy slash where a person almost died from a knife wound, for example). Very, very strong auras will give her a headache, if she looks at them too long.
→LAGUZ'S PROTECTION: This is a further boost of her other runic abilities, given to her by one of Frigg's handmaidens, Eir, the Goddess of Healing. Laguz protects her from supernatural venoms and poisons, preventing them from being able to kill her. (They can still affect her to some degree, just not to a lethal point.)
Weaknesses |
→ ANTI-MAGIC FIELDS: Meja's runes will completely de-power, when she is inside such an effect, though not instantly. It's sort of like battery power being expelled at a suddenly massive rate. She will get progressively less tough until she is completely at human average, after only a few minutes. There is an inherent danger in her being inside such a field for a long period of time, however. Her brain and body has had to rewrite itself and adjust to the magic that typically roars through her system. When suddenly deprived, she will slowly begin to have minor problems (shortness of breath, migraines, dizzy spells) followed, eventually, by passing out. (After about 4-6 hours.) This is why the runes are passed down after death: adults cannot live without them, once their bodies have adjusted. Once she passes out, she will not reawaken until the field is turned off, eventually falling into a coma.

DOES HEL'S VISION APPLY TO THEM?: A resounding duh with this one, me thinks. Ciara's not like uber-powerful, but that whole being a magical wolf fairy would probably register.
WOULD YOU BE OKAY WITH MEJA SEEING SOMETHING ADDITIONAL ABOUT THEM?: There's nothing I can think of, but if I think of something, I will let you know. Conversely, if there's something you feel she should, lemme know and I'll give it a thought!
