And I ended up making a sheet before even stating my interest again... Old habits die hard. Anyway, I made a fairly diversified character this time but hopefully not enough for being considered as having a broad range of powers. Tell me your thoughts, [@Man Jack Frost].

This deity has been fairly lonely for the last centuries."[/color][/hider] Appearance: Aldr has two main forms known amongst mortals. His main form seems to be that of a ridiculously huge Dragon with a body seemingly made of a molten rock and lava flowing through his veins - or what he calls as veins. He is said to have an an overall fearsome appearance, with sharp spikes all over his body, glowing red orbs for eyes and a jaw filled by teeth as big as normal houses, Aldr is a being often described as monstrous to the point that he brings destruction even when simply walking. His human-like form, though, seems to be far from being as monstrous as his other forms, being that of a handsome and lean young man with Crimson red hair and a single green eye - with his right eye assuming the form of a red gem and normally being hidden under an eyepatch. He seems to have a few inhuman qualities though, such as the previously mentioned fiery red gem/eye and dark scales occasionally growing to cover part of his torso, back and neck, going as far as to cover his cheeks in some situations. He seems to personally favour dark clothing, normally with silver embroidery, and seems to consider scarfs specially comfortable, often wearing them. He also seems to like wearing basic jewellery to a certain extent, often using silver for his earrings and rings. Name: Aldrnari Ignus Domain: Fire, Life (Rebirth) and Natural Disasters (Specifically Volcanism). Aldr is the embodiment of fire - one of the primordial elements - Life - Specifically the act of giving a new life to formerly deceased beings - and Natural Disasters, taking various abilities and gifts from these domains. [hider=Applications(WiP)] As the deity who rules over Fire, Aldr is said to embody the multiple aspects of fire, with a range that varies from things such as the warmth of a campfire, that protects those around it from the cold to the destructive nature of a fire that burns a city to ashes. [b]Embodiment of Fire:[/b] As the God who embodies this element, Aldr can freely generate, shape and extinguish fire in any possible environment, being capable of freely manipulating its temperature and characteristics to suit his needs and being naturally immune to any harmful aspect of this element. His control over this element goes to the point where doing things such as raining fire over those who defy his godly self and burning entire cities until nothing other than ashes remain is easily done with a snap of his fingers, making him one of the gods with the highest destructive potential. His existence is such that every single source of fire counts as part of his domain, making him able to project his counciousness into any source of fire to project his image and guide his followers, as well as directly use sources of fire to observe the situation in the mortal realms. For the same reason, he's regarded as the patron deity of all the fire mages as well as the source of their power, being able to gift part of his control to those under him to produce specially powerful fire mages. [b]Rebirth from Ashes:[/b] As the patron deity of Fire, it's virtually impossible to kill Aldr without extinguishing all the flames across the worlds, as every single source of fire counts as part of his being as he can easily reconstruct his physical body apart from these aspects of himself - fact that made the flames start to be regarded as a symbol of life and rebirth. This ability can be passed to his followers in the form of the ability of choosing to bath in flames to receive his favour, being reborn as creatures directly aligned to the element embodied by the deity. [b]Purifying Flames:[/b] Being the deity of Fire and Rebirth, Aldr naturally has the ability of using flames to cleanse beings from any external influence, guiding them towards a pure rebirth. This ability seems to be passed to his followers in the form of the ability to purify items and even some beings (Such as golems and undeads) into a pure state - without any influence, be it good or evil - removing any blessings and curses from the target. [b]Natural Disaster Inducement:[/b] As a patron deity of Natural Disasters, Aldr is capable of directly influentiating certain areas into suffering from natural disasters such as the birth new Volcanoes, giving him the ability of inducing things such as earthquakes, creating geisers of lava and ash clouds as well as the formation of volcanic fields - areas prone to suffer from intense volcanic activity. No need to say that he can also use his abilities to stop natural disasters from happening, shielding certain areas from natural disasters in despite of their natural disposition towards suffering from mother nature's wrath. While this ability doesn't seem to be shared with his mortal followers, it seems to be present in some creatures blessed by him - such as some kinds of dragons and other primordial beings. [/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] Aldr is quite the controversial being when it comes to personality, being depicted as both, a warm and gentle deity who helps mortals and provides comfort for them and a tyrannical beast who brings destruction to everything in his path. This is, as one may imagine, a result of the dual nature of his domain, that often influentiates him into assuming different personalities through his seemingly endless life - often displaying controversial stances according to the dominant aspect of fire in the current time period - and of the changes his appearance to suit the current dominant aspect of his domain. Aldr as an anthropomorphic deity, though, seems to maintain a fairly stable personality, being mostly seem as a person with a warm personality and passionate attitude, easily relating with mortals and deities alike - having an attitude regarded as excessively friendly by most - and passing the overall impression of a gentle older brother, deeply caring those who gather around him yet not being afraid of using discipline to correct their mistakes. He is often said to have a deep affection for courageous people and heroes, being a deity known in many tales for indirectly helping heroes in their quests - albeit equally often depicted as the main objective of the quest of some past heroes, that ought to pacify his burning rage in order to save their countries. That being said, even the human form of Aldr has a fiery side, being known for his burning hate towards those who defy the cicle of life - such as necromancers who trap souls and use them to fulfil their purposes, disturbing the cicle of death and rebirth - and tendency of directly sending punishment in the form of erupting volcanoes and earthquakes. [b]Other:[/b] - While he doesn't represent these domains, Aldr is often regarded as a secondary patron deity by Dragons, Craftsmen and Metalworkers. [/CENTER][/hider]
