Dead Gods Dream: A post-apocalyptic divine action-adventure RP

Ashte

"O'Menus, violence isn't the solution to everything," the goddess chided, sword taking on an oddly melted look and reforming into a shield. Honestly, having to be told to take peaceful solutions from someone as mistrustful of potential enemies as her... although, she was never one to skip the diplomatic effort entirely, it could be just as fun. "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar."

Like the goddess of commerce, Ashte had begun to feel the mortals above. Mortals with desires and goals, who no doubt needed guidance and instruction, if not a bit of hands-on experience... it might even be exciting, to rebuild from nothing. Maybe a group effort, this time? Everything had been so... determinedly individualistic, before, despite their rarely overlapping spheres of interest.

And if she could do some naval exercises without Trineon potentially ruining it all, that would be fun.

"Say, Aureia, I have a question before we go see what these mortals want," Ashte wondered, smirking and tilting her head, "Is this new look intentional? You're seeming awfully more cute than I remember."

And if it wasn't apparent, Ashte is a very, very, involved love goddess. Enough that the answer to "Can I have slept with her in the past" is preemptively yes, with as much potential awkwardness as that implies. :P

Ashte

Ah, oblivion... strange dreams, dreams that seemed much less fleshy and visceral than anything that belonged in her head, but dreams nonetheless. And then they were taken away, replaced by damp and wet... like so many, the Goddess of Love would rather return to her befuddling dreams than deal with all the hassle of waking up, and sought to burrow into the cold floor some more. Eugh, so cold, so hard, so lacking in other bodies and life...

Some form of instinct flared to life at the sound of violence, though, and as the girl was rising to a sitting and then standing position, an elaborate bronze weapon stabbed down into the floor before her. Nearly the height of a man, curved outwards, and with a sharpened axe-like blade, the oversized khopesh looked like great craftsmanship, even inlaid with mother of pearl and with a finely detailed handle of sandalwood... but it was just a creation of her memories.

And distinctly less than the veritable battalion that Ashte now remembered responding to unpleasant interruptions with. Huh.

Still, it was one weapon, so there was no harm in keeping it close at hand... her approach up to the platform was cautious, this unknown room was far from a palace or other civilised setting, so who knew what danger it presented? But... she couldn't help but relax on seeing what it was. One unconscious girl, and a bunch of gods that she knew, or at least knew of--one advantage, one supposed, to empire building was the many people you got to meet and that your subjects kept telling you about.

"So... fancy meeting you here, huh?" Ashte asked the others, reaching down to pick up the time goddess and plant her back on her feet. Nobody seemed too much of a threat, but the sword was still there... and besides, there were better things to start thinking about.

Four cute girls, a cute guy, and one grumpy one who could maybe do the brooding archetype if he calmed down. She could work with this.

Love Is War

• Name: Ashte
• Gender: Female
• Appearance: Extremely pretty... and of absolutely, absurdly average height. Well, it was absolutely average in the distant past. Now it might not be.
• Personality: A contradictory sort; to those with her love and favour, Ashte is doting and affectionate, forgiving of their mistakes and willing to give them multiple chances. To her enemies, there is no quarter until their complete defeat; no mercy will be offered until an enemy is crushed beyond the point of being able to rise up again. To those who have neither her love nor her hate, Ashte is reserved and haughty, a proud goddess who expects to be deferred to and loved first.
• Domain: Love and War. Of course, in the general sense this also makes her a goddess of fertility and beauty and organisation and such things; as a goddess so closely tied to mortal concepts, she enjoys the fuzziness of the boundary regions between domains.
• Abilities: In the old days, Ashte was a goddess who had nearly as many ways to face down her enemies as she did lovers. She could have perfect insight over a battlefield and relay orders with a precision and speed no mortal could hope to match, leading her troops in a perfect dance to confound enemies that would have thought them helpless. Her presence on the battlefield could be a rallying beacon to inspire ability and endeavours beyond normal limitations. Or she could show them all exactly how it was done, and take to the battlefield herself, with nothing more than martial ability and vast divine power. Or, often, all three at once; nothing makes a battle easier than waving a juicy but impregnable target in front of your enemies.
  In her current state, none of those remain, aside from some thoroughly mortal-achievable but superlative skill at arms. Instead, the remaining facet of Ashte's warlike skills is part of an ability that would allow her to be an army: conjuring and reshaping a scant pair of weapons to hover close around her and fight autonomously, if she doesn't wish to wield one or both herself. Of course, these still have a spark of the divine about them--they cut far more things than normal steel would.
  As for the other aspect of her domain, she's still extremely pretty. Anything that would permanently interfere with that won't stick. She's quite annoyed at how... immutable her body is right now, however. Some people have particular interests that can't be satisfied this way! It really loses out on regal, divine presence, too, to be so... not huge.
• Brief Backstory: Ashte's time as a major deity was rapacious and expansionist, inevitably coming into conflict with those surrounding her followers that refused to be swayed. Those that refused her love could only be treated as suspicion, as having ulterior motives--in such a volatile region, how could anyone that refused to ally or submit be anything but an enemy in waiting
  Of course, it's quite embarrassing--and obvious, in hindsight--that the real enemy would be someone only feigning adoration and abusing her good graces. Not that she's likely to be much more suspicious of her lovers this time...

I'm here, just trying to find an appearance. Hmm...

Dungeon Clearer! A Fantasy Adventurer RP

Corinne and Liliane

With the skeletons now out of the picture, Corinne recovered adroitly, although seemingly puzzled over something. "Was zis not a monastery? Zen... why are zese skeletons here?"

After all, one would think that the place most resistant to the intrusion of the undead would be a former holy site; even buried, the goddesses weren't known to be totally disconnected from their places of worship. For mindless undead to be attacking anything that came into their domain suggested that something had gone quite seriously wrong in the intervening centuries.

"Put that down. And go see if there's more skeletons ahead." Liliane, meanwhile, had approached the fairy. And gently tapped her head. If she was going to come along, the least she could do was take advantage of few things reacting to fairies and see if the path was clear...

Me, obviously?
