Meet Nepheli! (ref sheet by Cyborg-Steve)
As if I didn't need more OCs,
cyborg-steve goes and posts this cutie, and I couldn't help myself! (It's been a hard year okay)
I'm happy to have a cute sheep character I can call my own, and am eager to share her with the rest of you! Enjoy!
Name: Nepheli
Age: Old/Immortal (appears 24 at all times)
Height: 6'1"
Sexuality: Pansexual
Nepheli hails from a faraway island—a storm goddess that's existed since time immemorial. For as long as she can remember, she's been worshipped and doted on, currying her favor in order to bring favorable winds to the island's occupants and avoid unnecessary storms.
Then, one day, she vanishes. Did she return to the thrones of Olympus, or become one with the sky itself?
Nah. She just got bored staying in one place, and simply decided one day to see the rest of the world for herself. And now that she's got a taste of freedom, she's in no rush to return to her island home. Her people will probably be just fine without her. It's not like they have the power to control a living storm, anyway.
Nepheli is bubbly, outgoing, and a bit of a flirt at times. The only thing she loves more than travel is discovering new sweets to eat—and new wines to drink. Despite her immortal body, she's a bit of a lightweight, and it doesn't take much to get her giggly. She wears her emotions on her sleeve, and while it takes a lot to ruin her peppy demeanor, once it happens, everyone knows it.
Her wool, for lack of a better word, are clouds themselves; constantly billowing and swirling in rings around her wrists and ankles. Her wooly hair is much the same, eternally flowing around her head and horns. The color of clouds is a clear indication of her current mood; most of the time they're white and fluffy, but when she's sad, they turn dull and grey...and when she's angry, her hair billows out and turns black, with flecks of lighting dancing between her horns. The surrounding weather reflects her mood: drizzles follow her around when she's upset, and thunderstorms rage when she's infuriated. These mood swings never last long, and the storms pass as quickly as they come.
Being a storm goddess, Nepheli is able to manipulate clouds and fog in profound ways, either by walking atop of them as if they were solid surfaces, or swimming through them as if they were pools of water. Her divine power also allows her to change her size at will, which can range from a few feet to a few miles—it's not uncommon for her to poke her head through a cloud layer just to get a good peek at the world below. These changes in size are preceded by her fiddling with one of her lightning-shaped earrings beforehand. While she'll never admit if her jewelry is the source of her size-shifting ability, she's never seen without them, suggesting she keeps them on in case the urge to become the size of a mountain strikes her fancy. She also takes great delight in using her powers when she finds them suitable; some say she's caused lightning strikes whenever she pokes her toe on the ground at some of bigger sizes (although when possible, she'll aim for lightning towers).
Despite her divine abilities, Nepheli never uses her power with malicious intent. She's much like the weather itself—peaceful one moment, and tumultuous the next, but never remaining in any one state for long. She chooses to live among mortals just to have a good time—rain or shine.
(Also she loves LOVES foot rubs. You want to avoid getting rained out of a big event? Find your nearest storm goddess and give her a massage. The results speak for themselves!)
