[i]Anansi The Spider is most likely the most principal hero of the Akan Pantheon. Is he a God? Or a creature of folklore and myth? Nobody knows. He was most popularly known as a God of Trickery, but few know that he was a God of Virtue or Wisdom. He's most famously known as a trickster God due to his many adventures where he uses his cunning and wit to get over on his various foes. Most famously, Anansi got the stories from Nyame, the God of the Sky, by bringing him three different beasts (Onini the Python that swallows men whole, the Mmoboro Hornets that sting like fire, Osebo the Leopard of terrible teeth, and the Fairy Mmoatia that man must never see), a task that Anansi was supposed to fail. However, Anansi brought him all four prisoners as requested and was rewarded with stories... the stories of which he distributed across the world and they became known as Spider Stories.[/i][/center]

[center][color=saddlebrown]APPEARANCE[/color][/center]
[/b][/h2][/sup]
[center][i]"One look and now you're hooked."[/i][/center]
[indent]Jasmine is a very pronounced teenager in terms of appearance, some of it is because of her pronounced facial features because of her Ethiopian heritage. She just has that distinct Ethiopian facial shape. That means that Jasmine here is African-American to her very bone. Afro-textured hair, brown skin, thick lips, and of course the African facial-shape. She has a slightly nerdy vibe about her because she is utterly blind without her glasses, and hates the fact that she has to wear them. 

However, the girl is much more in line with urban girls. It's the way she dresses and acts, after all. Jasmine has the aura of a model, mostly because she loves to pose, and take pictures of herself. She's a girl that loves to be in tip-top shape, instead of being a slob. Because of this, the girl's body is pretty well-toned from exercise and the biz. She has the build of a runner because she's a track runner in school. The rest of her body is well-toned because of yoga-stretches, and bodybuilding.

All of this means that Jasmine is a tad muscular. Almost like she is aiming to become a model. She does have a bit of body-fat, and all it does is make the girl curvier. I'll go into that later. The girl isn't painfully tall at five-three, but her build more than makes up for it. She has a pear body-shape, instead of the famed hour-glass - but she makes it work. With her lower body being the wider part of Jasmine, her breasts aren't anything to write home about at 34B, but her hips and behind are wide. 

Her perfectly round behind is the butt of many jokes. Jasmine walks with a swagger in her step and sways her hips left and right. She gives off the aura of a vain female with all the looks she gives people that tells them she's the queen bee. Though, she certainly has a playful side. It shows when she smiles - and that's only when she's around the people she trusts very much.[/indent][/cell][/row][/table][sub][h2][color=black][b]██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████[/b][right][b]█████████[/b][/right][/color][center][color=black]PERSONALITY [/color]

[center][i]"I don't like it here, I don't want to be here, but maybe if you be quiet I'll start to enjoy this place just a little."[/i][/center]
[indent]A tad abrasive. Jasmine is a girl that is very vain and haughty about her talents and appreciates all the love and admiration for being her home town's finest. She has a lot of confidence in herself, and the skills to back it up, of course. She's normally laid back until someone sets off that flaming temper of hers, then she turns into a screaming maniac that is blunt as hell. Like, she'll give people the most savage verbal beatdowns on the planet. 

Jasmine is blunt in general, but honestly, she mostly reserves that for the people who annoy her the most. She speaks in a casual and friendly manner and uses the lingo and slang you'd expect an eighteen-year-old to use. Not overly energetic, but she puts enough passion in her interactions that leave a good first impression. Usually, put on a confident smirk. Certainly playful and confident with other people, and tends to spout jokes and the sorts. Jasmine is so confident in herself that, when she makes a mistake, she owns up to it, and takes full responsibility for it. Most importantly, looking down on people who don't.

The other main trait about Jasmine is that she's incredibly competitive. Like, she wants to be the very best in the world and will go to insane lengths to achieve that. She doesn't like being number two, and instead, will fight tooth and nail, going to illegal ends to become the number one. Either by bettering herself, or sabotaging the opposition. It all stems from an innate inferiority complex.[/indent]

[color=saddlebrown]BACKSTORY[/color][/center][/h2][/sub]
[center][i]"From Germany with love."[/i][/center]
[indent]Jasmine Nnamani was born in Germany to parents that were very important architects that made plenty of trips around the world. That made the money flow in for the young Jasmine and gave her everything she ever wanted. She was always a ball of energy... like, she was a limitless supply of it. Which caused her to act out without any real outlet. It would be years before anyone would even think of putting Jasmine in a sport. She started by first joining the local soccer (or Football) team, which served her well until she got into basketball where she did much better. Putting that energy towards winning above all else. Sure, she had the energy to do it, but Jasmine talented at sports that she was showered with praise at a young age... and that filled her head with the idea that she needed victory above all else, and made her incredibly arrogant. It wasn't long until the girl had become obsessed with the idea of being the very best.

With the world showering her with praise, Jasmine felt unstoppable... that is, until her parents got a divorce after her mother found out that her father had an affair with an American woman a few years ago, and fathered a child with her. She didn't even want anything to do with Jasmine, so she was left in the care of her father as the two came to America to find new business. Moving to another country was hard since she was leaving behind her life of fame... and then quickly found out that America had a big love of sports (even some large leagues just for women). The moment Jasmine touched down in New York, New York, she spent her time practicing and training for the WNBA. 

It wasn't long until Jasmine encountered her half-sister Phoebe Carmicheal. The two didn't get along that well... at all. Given that Jasmine thought that Phoebe was a loser, and not even worth her time. Which caused a noticeable schism between the two, but Jasmine didn't even waste time on Phoebe, and instead single-mindedly focused on becoming the best. It wasn't long until Jasmine became queen bee of her highschool merely by sports talent alone. Her name became known all over school... but, not all over New Yor! She tried her best to get noticed by sports agencies, but, just couldn't. That was such a blow to her pride that she went to some rather... seedy lengths to get to that level, she met with a few people that her father knows and they arranged a little deal. 

Soon Jasmine graduated from highschool with rather average grades, school was for nerds anyway. Jasmine was just going to try a little harder to achieve her dream of being in the WBA... and then the Return happened. It was a subtle change that Jasmine didn't notice unlike the other Gods and beings of myth unlocking their abilities. When she was practicing she found out that she was a lot more... limber than before. That she was faster, stronger, and tougher than ever before, at first she thought that she accidentally took some roids. However, when she discovered that she can shoot... web out of her hands, she realized something was wrong [s](Was she bit by a radioactive spider???)[/s].

The letter came and just for some answers she followed it.[/indent]

[center][i]"I'm... a spider. Yay."[/i][/center]
[indent][color=saddlebrown][b]Web-Weaving:[/b][/color] Anansi the Spider had the ability to weave thick webs out of his own hands. At his very peak, the spider could weave a web into the heavens... unfortunately, Jasmine is not capable of those peaks, she can weave a spider web about fifteen meters if that counts for anything. At will, Jasmine can shoot webs out of her hands Spider-man style but she can also create constructs out of the web. These are logically simple constructs such as a ladder but if she gets some time she can make a whole house out of the web. Not that's practical, at all. These webs are strong enough to hold a car in place and can even bind a God in place if she can trap them. Jasmine's webs are strong enough to hold and carry herself.

[color=saddlebrown][b]Spider-Transformation:[/b][/color] The stories about Anansi the Spider are... unsure, of whether or not he was a spider or not. In some stories he was a frail old man, in others he was part spider, and in some, he took the form of well, a spider. In truth, he was capable of all [i]changing[/i] his form. At will, Jasmine can take the form of a tiny little black widow spider - with all the abilities of a spider. Using this she can sneak around, hide, and dodge attacks. Jasmine can also assume a [i]partial[/i] spider form by growing two extra arms and legs - or just two extra arms look less weird. However, Jasmine can always wall-crawl regardless of what form she is.

[center][i]"I wish I was stronger... instead of a stupid spider."[/i][/center]
[indent]Now, Anansi was not known for being physically the strongest, or throwing webs like Zeus. He was known as a frail old man or a tiny spider that could get [i]splattered[/i] in a confrontation with his enemies. Which translates to Jasmine as she's not exactly a super durable or strong person, she's less durable than the other Gods. So she has to rely on deception and quick thinking like the God she reincarnated into... two things that she isn't good at. Jasmine can create a web of about fifteen meters and can create a small house out of the web at best... if she creates too much web she'll get lethargic/sluggish and will have to wait until her supply comes back.[/indent]

[i]In the sky he is the sun, in the atmosphere he is lightning, and on earth, he is fire, Agni is the great fire god of the Hindu Pantheon. Agni was stated to be the most important and powerful of the Hindu Gods, as he is the flames of sacrifice and the protector and friend of humanity. He is the God that brings offerings and sacrifices to the Gods from mortals through his divine flame. Some state that he is in fact the [i]creator[/i] God, but many see him as a God of destruction. Many do not dare to even have a ceremony or get together without praising the being, as while he is a powerful God of fire and righteous fury, he is also a giver. Agni distributes wealth to his followers long as they appease him first.[/i][/center]

[indent]Heidi has a relatively subdued presence around herself she moves around in plain sight without being noticed much like a cat. In the streets of New York even the best looking or stylish people get lost in the masses and Heidi takes advantage of that. She usually wears subdued, darker, colors and when she walk she takes slow cautious steps - but large steps nonetheless. Heidi has a weird aura around her for people who do in fact notice her, she has a smile on her face and always speaks in a tone that some people find strange. Sometimes her aura can come off as... flirty? It's hard to tell with the woman.

Heidi is African-American and doesn't hide it at all. She's got thick lips, very dark skin, and she always has her hair natural (and she always has a scarf on her head). She claims that she has power in her melanin and that she is proud of the way she looks. While she is proud of the way she looks, she has gotten a [url=https://i.imgur.com/CQCCvmd.jpg]sleeve tattoo[/url] on her left arm that ends before her wrist. It's the only tattoo that she has because she finds the process too expensive and painful for her! 

In terms of build, Heidi is relatively slim but she's kind of curvy and she's only about an inch over the female average. She's got a fat behind because that runs in the mother's side of the family (extending to even the men) and she has 38D-sized breasts. The lady works out a lot to stay in shape for her job so she kinda looks good... under clothing. Sadly to say she's still got a lot of baby fat that she's been trying to work off so she still has a bit of a gut. However, you'd only notice that once you get naked.[/indent][/cell][/row][/table][sub][h2][color=black][b]██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████[/b][right][b]█████████[/b][/right][/color][center][color=black]PERSONALITY [/color]

[center][i]"I'm a conductor, sweetie, we're all weird."[/i][/center]
[indent] a strange one, Heidi has lived her life being an outsider in whatever group that she was apart of - until she found the group that was really for her. The girl always had a heavy interest in spirituality and even some occultism and then some. She always speaks in a low volume and ends up rambling about a bunch of different stuff. Usually the symbolism of this, the meaning of that... and usually it ends up falling on deaf ears or nobody listens. The girl is very outward and likes talking with people about whatever comes to mind, and while Heidi is a talker, she's also a listener. She pays attention to what people say and pieces together their little puzzles... while also being a shoulder to cry on if she needs to be. Heidi believes that [i]everyone[/i] is a puzzle, one that she wants to piece together and figure out their psyche (or what makes them tick). She always likes guessing what people are going to do or say next and if they do something that she can't predict, then she gets thrown off. Heidi is a bit of a manipulator... she [i]is[/i] a stripper, after all. Using her knowledge of how people act she carefully chooses her words to get the best outcome.[/indent]

[center][i]"♬ Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today. I want to be a part of it: New York, New York. ♬"[/i][/center]
[indent]Born a native of New York to a pair of working parents (one of which is a Liberian immigrant), they tried to give Heidi a better life here in the states than they had. Though there was always something a little... off, about Heidi. She didn't exactly get along with other kids and was always seemingly an outsider. One that found enjoyment in isolation rather than interacting with people, which they found weird as the girl would rather bury herself in a book than party. Just what is wrong with her?! She says that she never really [i]got[/i] people as she grew up, and found find herself doing anything other than what they considered normal. Heidi, as a child, found it easier to stay inside and keep to herself, which meant that she stayed out of trouble.

Her parents constantly tried to push her towards social situations by the means of after school activities... which she didn't take to other than the writing club and her future passion: the theater. Yes, Heidi was a theater kid and once she went there she immediately took to their lot. They were open, they had fun, and they took a liking to Heidi herself. She was merely the makeup and costume artist but whenever someone had a cold or didn't want to do a role she was an actor. Something that she took a liking to... and despite that reserved demeanor Heidi was [i]very[/i] overdramatic. 

There's not much else to say that Heidi partied with the theater kids and made some true friends that made her parents happy. Then everyone graduated and then went their separate ways and Heidi went to college for the arts... as the stage was her passion and she was going to get a degree in that field! It was a grueling four years of college - full of stress, tears, enemies, hookups, and shitty jobs to pass the time - but eventually, Heidi got her bachelor's degree in the arts! The first thing that she got was a job as a conductor and it was everything that she could have dreamed of, and more...

... Until she saw her salary.

New York's a [i]very[/i] expensive state to live in and her salary wasn't enough to cut it despite how much she liked being a conductor in a big orchestra. She didn't like it but a friend of hers who played the violin in the orchestra suggested her for a little side hustle: stripping. Heidi was hesitant about it at first but she warmed up to it once she got on the stage, and the life of a stripper was peculiar enough for Ms. Thomas. It gave her a little extra money to avoid getting thrown out on the streets but she also wanted to move out where it was cheaper, the south sounded appealing. 

However she was getting bled dry through bills so that was a far cry but she remained hopeful... however, the Return happened and Heidi wasn't aware but she possesses the soul of the primitive God of fire, Agni. When she performed on stage one day she didn't realize it but the place was engulfed in fire due to her new Godly abilities flaring up and going out of control. The fire department saved the day but a bunch of people was still injured, including Heidi herself. She had to spend a little while in the hospital... which she [i]also[/i] set on fire. 

It didn't take a genius to realize that there was a pattern and that she was not "herself". The letter came and she didn't like the sound of it... but she also didn't have any other options here.[/indent]

[center][i]"Fire means passion, rage... love, three things that I am not lacking."[/i][/center]
[indent][b][color=dodgerblue]Fire-Manipulation:[/color][/b] The fires of Agni were stated to be more than just mere fire, a consuming force that transports sacrifices to the Hindu pantheon. Naturally... Heidi's pyrokinesis is a lot weaker than that. She's not capable of burning all to ash, but she's capable of producing one hell of a flame. Heidi's flames are not a traditional red but a dark blue color that symbolizes that [i]maybe[/i] they come from a different source. They burn a bit hotter than average flame but the average person will probably not tell the difference when they're on fire. It's simple, Heidi can produce this flame from her hands and in this environment - it's easier to produce the flame from her body, however.[/indent]

[indent]Water is naturally the opposite of Heidi's fire, and if you soak her in the fire she won't be able to use her fire until she dries off. Of course, her fire is susceptible that regular fire is so I'm not going to go over that. The big issue is that the fire burns up the air quickly and it [i]also[/i] produces a lot of smoke when she's in close quarters. So that makes it dangerous for her to use along with the fact that it causes dehydration so she'll have to constantly drink water.[/indent]
