Long-Lived
Physical Age:
Around her early twenties.
Gender:
Female
Race:
Daimone - Siren
Appearance:
As a siren, Thelxiepeia has a supernatural beauty that is both demure and seductive. Although she has the body and head of a beautiful woman, she has legs of a bird as in classic mythology. There are still feathers on her back, although her wings are missing. To show her age, she prefers to wear the old clothing of ancient Greek, which also has the side effect of covering her unnatural legs with her long dress.
Affiliation:
Unaffiliated.
Starting Personality:
As the norm for a siren, Thelxiepeia is seductive and a dangerous trickster, with a taste for humans.
However, she herself also has a strange personality: Hypocritical and decieving to the point of tricking herself. Many of her interests, such as her arrogance and attention-seeking contradicts her aloof nature and reluctance to sing due to her fear of someone not listening to her. And while she's distant and aloof, at the same time, she also acts seductively towards men and hostile toward women. Despite her inherent seductive, nasty nature, she herself is not completely evil, if not morally complicated.
History:
Born to Muses, Sirens once had wings, and so did Thelxiepeia and her sisters. They were companions of the Persephone. One day when Persephone was abducted by Hades, they searched for her, but failed. Goddess Of Harvest, Demeter had given them their wings, but as they failed, the goddess cursed them and took the wings away, and the Sirens in their shame, hid themselves away in an island. There, they mourned for Persephone, and using their singing voices, began to lure sailors to them, before revealing their true nature, and ripping them apart to eat them. This continued for a while.
Until a man passed by them, one day, by getting his crew to tie him up and fill his ears with beeswax. Thelxiepeia was reminded of the myth that Sirens could only live until a man resisted their song. She and her sister threw themselves into the water to drown on their own terms rather then die from some fate chosen by Gods. She had expected to die.
That was not the case.
Instead of Thelxiepeia dying, by some miracle, she was simply washed away. And woke up in a lake near Kura-Shi. There, she tried to do the same routine of luring people to their deaths, but after many years of people rarely coming to the lake, Thelxiepeia grew bored and lonely. For the first time in a long time, she put on a dress and began to talk to others in a normal fashion. Nowadays, while she is kind of creepy and strange, Thelxiepeia is known across the town with a fairly decent reputation. Just a traveller who comes by often.
Abilities & Skills:
Siren's Song: The most well-known ability, A Siren has a most-beautiful singing voice, close to birds, and will cause any men to fall under their trance. It doesn't work on women, but the ability is so strong, that it is extremely hard to resist the song even with assistance. However, due to Thelxiapeia's fear of someone ignoring her song, she rarely sings even for recreation purposes.
Supernatural Beauty: Thelxiepeia, like all Sirens, are supernaturally beautiful to attract gullible men if their songs doesn't enchant them. The kind of beauty is both innocently sweet and devilishly seductive.
Super Strength: Considering they can rip apart men and eat them, and that they are literally daughters to a goddess, this can be assumed.
Other Information:
Greek dress is stolen from a woman.
She believes that Sirens dying if some man passes them is a true fact, and what happened is a one-off miracle.
