Art not mine, just wanted a visual.
Name: Onyx May Blackwood
Age: 19 years old
Gender: Female
Zodiac: Scorpio
Physical Description: While Onyx’s natural hair color is black, the ends of her hair are an orange color from when she tried to dye it red, and failed. The hair that she hates barely reaches her mid back, but she often keeps it in a high ponytail. Her eyes are gray, though sometimes they trick people into thinking they’re blue. Onyx stands at an average height of about 5’6, though she looks for many ways to make herself a bit taller.
Personality: Onyx is a bit unpredictable. She loves to joke around with her friends and have fun, but she can switch to extremely angry in a blink of an eye. She isn’t a stranger to losing friends because of her outbursts. Onyx is always ready to fight someone, no matter who they are. While she’s a bit of a hothead, she has moments of insecurity and depression. She makes those moments pass quickly, as she doesn’t want to show weakness to anyone – including friends. Despite all this, she has an EXTREME weak point for dogs, and she doesn’t care who sees THAT part of her. Onyx could be in mid fight with someone, but stop to pet a dog. Because of her personality, her and Hekate do not get along. She hates that she was only granted powers of healing and defense, and not ones of offense.
God(dess): Hekate
Abilities: Shadow Mimicry, Healing Powers, Necromancy. While she does have the ability to raise the dead, there are drawbacks. It only lasts a maximum of three minutes, the zombies do not magically have skin again, if they are only skeletons when they’re raised that’s how they’ll appear. The zombies have to listen to Onyx, but if they were strong enough when they died they would be able to try and fight her. Last but not least, she gives three minutes of her life to the zombies she raises, so she can get pretty tired out if she does it multiple times in one day.
(She also has the ability to create light shows using magic, but I wasn’t sure if that really counted.)
Background: While Onyx wasn’t exactly an orphan, she called herself that to other people. Her parents were cruel and abusive towards her and her younger sister. Onyx grew up knowing only the love she experienced from her sibling, so they often stuck together. When Onyx wasn’t allowed food for the night, her sister would sneak her some. It was that same action that ended in the death of her sister. She was caught sneaking food and their father beat the little girl to death. Heartbroken, Onyx fled her hometown. A knight of the king took her in, and once she became of age and showed interest, she was taught how to fight and hunt. She became proficient in these skills, though never reaching the talent of a knight or soldier. Whether it was out of pity or she saw true potential in Onyx, Hekate chose her as her host. Coming to her in a dream, she showed the woman the way to her ruin and relic. When Onyx took the torches, everything just seemed... clear to Onyx. It was as if they were showing her the way she needed to live her life through pictures.
Once it was well known Hekate had chosen Onyx, people flocked to her, hoping to have the torches show them the truth. However, they all quickly stayed away once Onyx's personality became too much to handle.
