    Default [M] The Throne of Gods: Divinity's Requiem

    This is Rated M for violence, blood, gore, language, nudity, sexual content, and contradiction of religious beliefs that might be considered blasphemy outside of creative context

    The Throne of Gods: Divinity's Requiem

    Take a look at the other active story! (MoD - OOC/IC)


    The King of Gods is gone. The Throne lies empty, waiting for your ambitious hand to claim it.

    The Monarchs stand in your way, and a new era must be ushered in. The God of Ruin calls upon those who understand the necessity of celestial rebellion to topple the established hierarchy.

    There is no Order. There is no Freedom. Only Pain and Chaos shall reign.

    Will you walk with the Child of the Apocalypse and forge a new life? Will you seize the mantle of a Monarch and rule with an iron fist? Will you betray Ruin and lead the rebellion yourself? Or will you sit upon the throne in the end?

    Evil knows no limits.

    Name: Temperance

    Gender: Female

    Age: ~45,000

    Appearance:
    Spoiler: Temperance, Goddess of Virtue 


    God/Goddess of: Goddess of Virtue

    Faction: Formerly, Order. Currently, Chaos

    Powers:

    Virtuous Whispers: The gentle whispers of influence calling those targeted to reach for their better angels. Or so that was it's intended use. Temperance can use her powers of influence to sway those to her side, and act in a manner that is befitting of her will. The call of the greater good being hard to resist. At the same time, these whispers can be words of corruption, convincing those to abandon their morals and virtuosity effectively enacting her own journey from the world of order and light into the darkness of chaos. Operating chiefly on arrogance and insecurity of her fellow deities, influence is aligned with the power of will. Arrogance, insecurity, propensity for rash actions and temperamental emotion strengthen whispers become. Those of weak will or shakeable will are easier to influence. Virtue and Sin are inherently intertwined, one can easily become the other with just a little convincing. Though once someone is aware of what is happening, the effects of influence can be easily be broken.

    Good Works: The ability to channel her divine energy to other deities for brief periods of time. The virtues of the world as expressed through actions often directly correlate to the abilities or domains of other deities and as such they will benefit from Temperance's good graces, allowing the effect or impact of their abilities to grow so long as her grace is shared. Similarly when virtues are corrupted into sin, that too carries tremendous power which can further be spread amongst the chosen.

    Divine Light: Calling upon the energy of good will and order itself to summon rays of light to cut through darkness and her enemies, tempering her enemies into submission. Her only true defensive move that requires a fair cool down period once utilized.

    Equipment: Humility's Rapier, a thin yet deadly blade intended to humble her enemies particularly those harbor unparalleled pride.

    Personality: A once cheerful demeanor has been replaced with scathing sarcasm and dry humor. Temperance seldom conceals her own thoughts and often favors a direct approach to any and all who cross her paths. Where she was once judgmental, she finds little offends her. Only faint traces of humility remain within the shell Temperance feels she has become. Temperance has seen ages go by, and has slowly become jaded over time, often leading her to assume the worst of everyone who surrounds her. She prefers words over actions and would rather not get her hands dirty, instead opting to act through proxies, often weaker willed individuals.

    Background: Chastity. Charity. Temperance. Diligence. Kindness. Patience. Humility. Good Works. Faith. Sobriety. These humble words are the words of virtue, the divine tenants that those who wish to walk in the light should obey and embody. While modern humanity dates back 300,000 years, it is thought that consciousness as we may conceive of it dawned some 45,000 years ago, leading to the eventual creation of morality. And with that notion Temperance the Goddess of Virtue was born. A glowing beacon, a holy flame for those who wished to better themselves and their communities around them. The overwhelming desire to be good, or to do good once fueled the Goddess, a humble servant of Order, defining the moral code of those across the realms. Yet with evolution, comes changes in morality, the very definition of right and wrong bringing forth a profound loss of clarity. Virtue gives way to sin.

    The death of Suriyel and the fall of the Gods was forever a defining moment for Temperance, a goddess of humble beginning. The true order of the realms seemed forever lost. If the King of the Gods could be killed so easily and the factions associated with evil could rise up, what was the point of virtue? It was clear that holding such virtue could not stop the triumph of chaos. After a hard fought return to Elysium and the reclamation of her power, not even Luthious himself could convince her to stay true to her purpose and the restoration of Order as it was once known. A self imposed exile in the land of Carcari completed her transformation, using the tricks she once used to invoke the best in all beings, to slowly corrupt and invoke the worst. A desire to destroy those who she once idolized, to awaken them to the reality that she now experiences is her overriding motivation. Even the death of Baldramont seemed to further prove her point that the chaos of the realms reigned supreme. The end of all things hath hastened her growing wrath.
    Thanks to Hayabusa/Ryoku for the set.
