I just realized that after all this time Undatec is just a ship name... [hider=Best girl] [b]Name:[/b] Slough [b]Alias:[/b] Rottenbone, Deepwood Ghoul, Ragged Deer, Atrophy, Woodland Hollow, Deer God [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Domain (Portfolio):[/b] Life / Nature [b]Domain (Portfolio) Description:[/b] A truly great power resides within the body of this beastly god. In terms of magnitude, it is impressive even among the strongest of gods, but lies for the most part unused inside her frame, eating away at her from the inside out. The incredible life-force dormant within Slough leaks out in the form of the rot dripping from her body; from pools of it new creatures can emerge and new plants can grow. Soil infused with this rot becomes fertile, creating entire ecosystems over time without the slightest bit of cognition on Slough’s part. It can also heal living things, or mutate them. In addition, Slough holds a connection to nature. If fleeing, Slough can disappear and reappear wherever its power has touched, and if there’s nowhere to flee its power will create a protective ‘womb’ around her to keep her safe. Lastly, the power within Slough has one other outlet. It draws souls, regardless of location or age, into it, replenishes them, and leaks them back out into new living forms via Slough’s secretions. In effect, this is a form of reincarnation. [b]Alignment:[/b] Neutral Good [b]Personality:[/b] Slough is, as one might expect, little more than a beast. She seeks food to keep herself alive, and has no discernable ambitions beyond that. If she is even aware of her own godhood, it is only the crudest sort of understanding. Flighty and easily startled, she tends to flee at the first sign of trouble, and is comfortable only when surrounded by a tranquil nature—at least, as comfortable as one cursed with eternal suffering can be. Reflecting the wildness of nature, she is extremely difficult to control or even approach, but with a lot of time and patience a wise individual knowledgeable in the ways of animals and healing can gain Slough’s trust. [b]Appearance:[/b] Unlike most gods, Slough maintains a single form, which is in itself a curse far greater than her wiser fellows may ever bear. She is an exceptionally large deer, whose stringy fur is easily mistaken for moss, and who despite being female bears magnificent antlers. To say that she is emaciated is a vast understatement; most of the flesh in her torso, including all of her organs, is gone, leaving only hunks of rotting flesh and tufts of fur around her spine. Her face, too, is nothing but a skull, with eyes covered by strips of tender bark like bandages. Slough’s body is constantly rotting, exuding a foul-smelling black pus that oozes from her body. Simply living is a ghastly pain for [url=http://orig07.deviantart.net/aacc/f/2010/175/0/8/the_spirit_deer_by_sea_dragon.jpg]her[/url]. [b]Musical Theme:[/b] [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAD0BtEv6-Q]Take Flight[/url] [b]Description:[/b] Despite possessing one of the greatest powers in the known universe, Slough desires nothing more than to live comfortably and at peace in the world. Creating new life even without meaning to, Slough is an extremely valuable resource for other gods wanting to make new creations for fast-track those already in the works, but her nature prevents this resource from being accessible. After all, if empowered by another god, Slough can make life for them easily. Nevertheless, Slough is not capable of development on her own, and will depend entirely on the actions of gods, heroes, and mortals –whether indifferent, harmful, malicious, corruptive, transformative, healing, relieving, intellectual, or blessing- to shape its existence.
