Sora Pulvia, the Spring Sprite

Appears Young, 7th born to the Moon and Sun
Aged around 20 in mortal form
God Status:
Goddess of Spring, Love, Life, and Fertility
Personality:
Zora is considered to be quite whimsical, gentle, and often times, mysterious. Many of her relatives believe that she is often lost in her own internal fantasies, making her unexpectedly distant despite her warmer personality. Another interesting thing to note is a sort of contempt for her other relatives, outside of the Seasons, and she has had a rather colder, uninviting attitude towards her own ever since the whole Brontes thing.

Sun and MoonSexuality:

True Form:
Powers:
Life Manipulation: This domain covers a large range of powers that Zora can use, but they all involve another being. Zora can create, but not destroy, any form of life she can think of and either help it by having it prosper or ignore it, leaving it to wither and die. A human's fertility is a great example and without Zora's blessing, a man or woman may fail to produce a child. She can stir emotion in Gods or Humans, helping guide, namely humans as Gods are more resilient to suggestion, along a certain path, but she cannot control them. She can also heal and repair life after damage or decay.
Weather Manipulation: Spring and rain usually go hand-in-hand and Zora has the power to manipulate clouds to produce rainfall. However, it should be noted that her power over weather is secondary and can find that the wily Frost may attempt to disrupt a perfectly good rainstorm.
Transformation: Zora's unique godly form gifts her with the power of flight and amplified powers.
Weapon:
-Flowered Crown of Harmony-
For life to exist in the mortal plane, there has to be a very particular balance achieved. While that isn't always the case, the Crown is a way to ensure that Godly influences on the world remain in check. The Crown allows Zora to dispel any conjuration, spell, or curse committed by any God or Goddess in her area of influence. The Crown is also an extension of Zora, herself, and removal of it will have a negative effect on the Goddess.
History (Pre-Earth bound):
Sora Pulvia was born a middle child of the Sun and Moon but it is often hard to distinguish whether or not she is older or younger than her Season siblings, as they were coincidentally born in the same year. Sora had both her father's and mother's favor in equal measure but never had the attention that Winter got from their father or the attention that Summer got from their mother. The days surrounding the Spring Equinox provided Sora roughly the same amount of time with both parents but never enough to become a favorite.
When it came time to assume her responsibilities, Sora was more than happy to escape the constant bickering and favoritism of her relatives. She found great solace in providing the mortal world with the sweet release from Winter's grasp. As the cycle of the Seasons continued, Zora, as she was referred to in mortal tongue, began taking a deep seeded interest in humanity as a whole and with her help, guided them to where they are today.
History (Post-Earth bound:
When her relatives were cast out, Zora felt like there were many to blame, instead of just the one, Brontes. The fighting among her relatives only made Zora feel distanced by it all and her distaste for what was going on only increased as they began a hunt for Brontes and she remains to be the only one not to have partaken, focusing more on herself and the mortal world. For many, many years Zora would continue her duties only really communicating with the Seasons, preferring their company over some of her other relatives. The sudden appearance of Brontes has stirred everyone up again and Zora feels a great bit of apprehension, mainly for
her mortal world.
Motive:
Zora places a lot of stock in mortals, despite all their faults. She would do anything for their sake over her family's sake.
