Visiting Velocity, eventually joined by Melinoe.

Encounters: Melinoe, Velocity, a bunch of other deer


May 12, 2018

It's been a long time. Returned to the forest to find Culzean, along with a doe she'd never seen before. They played for a bit, at one point joined by another (a "page not found" deer, I forget the name) though Sub Rosa seemed to lose interest before long, later on even threatening Macaria when she was just curious and wanted to be friends. Did she do something wrong? Didn't take much for her to feel better, though, with Culzean distracting her.

Encounters: Culzean, Sub Rosa














Body
in-game set: swan pelt, golden butterfly antlers, crying idol mask (pictured above with devout pelt)

Size: #13
Macaria is similar to her sister, Melinoe, in build, face shape, and overall structure. She is tall but very thin, and her face has sharp, angular features. Most of her fur is short and silky. The resemblance to her twin ends there. Macaria has longer fur on her neck and chest, and much longer fur on her lower legs and tail. The long fur on her tail makes it look similar to a horse's tail, but it is not the same. She also has a long, slightly wavy mane similar to a horse's. Macaria has an almost ethereal, ghostly look to her, her body being surrounded by a bright, white aura. Her fur is white with a faint glow, it could almost be called pure white if it weren't for the golden brown stripe along her back, and the lighter brown nose and inside her ears. She has similarly colored markings on her face, resembling tear streaks. Her eyes are gold and glow slightly, with no visible pupils. Instead of antlers, she has a pair of golden, spectral wings on her head that she can make appear and vanish at will. Her mane is a warm off-white. She can usually be seen wearing an asphodel flower tucked behind one ear.




Soul


outgoing, friendly, optimistic, cheerful

Favorite places: the graves, crying idol
Likes: ghosts and other paranormal things, poppies, candles, hopping, making friends, anything related to death
Dislikes: violence, anyone that disrespects the dead




Behavior
• Opposite of Melinoe in many ways.
• Bows to the graves (I don't always actually do this in-game as it's a bit tedious) and communicates with the spirits.
• Treats everyone equally, no matter the species or whether or not they're mortal. This only changes based on personal experience with someone.
• Enjoys being social and playing, but takes her own duties very seriously.
• Likes to hop, sometimes will hop instead of walking just for fun.
• May be found around someone who is dying or will die soon (obviously I have to know this about the character), especially if it's a natural death.

History


Based somewhat loosely on Greek mythology. Some liberties taken.





A daughter of Hades and Persephone (of Greek mythology, not TEF characters), and twin sister to Melinoe. Macaria is called the Goddess of Blessed Death or Blessed Afterlife. She has some jurisdiction of the Blessed Islands and the Asphodel Fields (parts of Elysium, the section of the Underworld reserved for souls favored by the gods). She is also associated with peaceful death, particularly where a person has lived a long life and is ready for death with no regrets, and she sometimes acts as a psychopomp (a being that leads departed souls to the afterlife), leading souls to her section of the Underworld.

Macaria's curiosity and connection with her sister brought her to the forest, where she takes on a role similar to the one Melinoe has taken upon herself, though while she watches over the graves, she has nothing against others being there and even playing (and will even join in herself), as long as they don't show any ill intentions.

Powers/Abilities

immortality: Macaria does not age, and cannot die of natural causes. She cannot get sick, and she doesn't need to eat, drink, or sleep (though she may do these things sometimes, anyway). She could potentially live forever. Killing her is not impossible... although it is especially difficult, and death for Macaria is not a permanent state.
spirit sense/connection: Macaria has a kind of connection with spirits/ghosts. She can sense them and communicate with them, although this sense is not as strong as it is in her sister, Melinoe.
• "paranormal sense": Macaria can also sense anything paranormal or unusual (such as if a deer is not what it appears to be [of course I have to actually know this about a character for it to work]).
• Macaria is able to traverse boundaries between life & death, and light & darkness. She can enter the underworld (or "spirit world") freely, coming and going as she pleases. This also lets her exit and enter the forest at will.
• ghost-like abilities including levitation and the ability to pass through solid objects.




Possessions

• Asphodel flower (Asphodelus albus) from the Asphodel fields in Elysium. A symbol of home. Being from the Underworld, it never withers or dies.
