Maya | "My-a"
Full Blooded Fairy
22 | "Ages Gracefully" | Pisces
Neutral | Good Leaning | INFJ
Single | Independent | Not Looking
Born in the secluded forests of Kaladon, nestled in Russia, Maya led a relatively normal life among her tribe of Earth Fairies. Despite her elemental differences, her clan accepted her much as they had her mother years before. Maya lacked a mentor due to these differences, leaving her to only begin exploring her Fae abilities.
According to the past, Maya's mother descended from the Heavens long ago, once a Fae servant to the Angels but no longer. Her mother had found resonance with Lucifer's philosophy, a choice that led her through unprecedented trials.
Some speculate Lucifer's influence led to her mother's demise, while others attribute it to Ceres, Maya's mother, losing herself to the corruption of the Void. Nonetheless, Maya was left at a tender age when her mother departed on a perilous quest. Only now, as Maya ventures beyond Kaladon's Woodlands into civilization, does she begin to uncover the profound conflict that once raged on the very grounds she calls home.
The Golden Child..
50% Arabic / 50% Unknown
Not such a golden child after all. Not only was Maya's birth a complete accident, but it was also completely against her mother's will. Her father conducted cruel experiments on Maya's mother upon her capture, subjected her to unspeakable horrors, and manipulated her in order to create the "Perfect" Hybrid. Unfortunately, Maya was not the prize he sought.
Once her mother managed to escape to freedom, she kept Maya a secret from everyone except her Fae Clan. Despite Maya being conceived under the worst of conditions, Ceres still loved her dearly.
While Maya remains oblivious to this history, it's expected that one day she will uncover the truth. Perhaps the origins of her half-brother will come to light. Maya has run into her half-brother on several occasions. He never seems too far when danger is afoot but lately has respected Maya's demands to be left alone.
Her mother has left her specific instructions. Being the dutiful daughter she is, it's likely Maya will follow: "Find Jett, stay with him, and don't trust anyone else."
"The Stars, They Call to Me"
Maya is a Water Fairy, her abilities reflecting her elemental origins. Despite this, she holds a profound affinity for the stars. Fascinated and irresistibly drawn to them, Maya feels a connection that she cannot fully explain. Unbeknownst to her, this attraction may stem from her father's lineage. Despite her ignorance of her father's genetic contribution, her physical resemblance to him hints at a deeper, unexplored heritage.
Still in the early stages of her development, Maya has only begun to scratch the surface of her elemental abilities.
Abilities
Basic Water Magic: Maya's proficiency in Water Magic is still in its early stages. She can conjure small water spears and projectiles, but her control over these abilities is unstable and unreliable in combat situations.
Fairy Dust: Highly sought after by hunters and witches, Maya naturally produces fairy dust that collects on her wings and falls off when in excess. She has never used this dust on anyone and is unaware of its effects. It is rumored to be valuable on the black market..
Water Healing: Maya can harness bodies of water such as rivers and lakes to heal herself or others.
Water Dancing: A mesmerizing dance with limited practical effects. It is believed to alleviate minor ailments like poisons and sicknesses, and has a calming effect that can soothe weary souls.
Charm Dancing: Initially practiced for personal solace, this secret dance has revealed its alluring effects over time. Maya's movements can enchant animals and beasts more profoundly, while also inducing a sense of ease or, in some cases, exerting influence over others akin to a Siren's song. She has only used this ability on Jett at his request.
The Talisman of Absolute Law
Once a coveted artifact known for its formidable power, the necklace was stolen from the King of the Stars and eventually came into the possession of Maya's mother, Ceres. Legend holds that the necklace was originally safeguarded by an ancient Ronin Tribe in the mountains of present-day Japan. Ceres cherished and protected this artifact with her life, relinquishing it only before the onset of the Great War.
In a ritual overseen by several Fae elders, Ceres entrusted the potent artifact to Maya, embedding its power deep within her. Though the physical necklace is no more, its formidable power remains dormant within Maya. However, Maya cannot wield this power herself. According to the elders' decree, the Talisman will only manifest its power when its bearer fully trusts someone to wield it.
Absolute LawThen & Now
Then: The Talisman of Absolute Law was once a fiercely guarded artifact, accessible only to those with extraordinary magical abilities and immense stamina. Possessing the power to compel lesser beings into unwavering compliance, the necklace was stolen by a servant to the King of the Cosmos to maintain balance and safety. Maya's mother, Ceres, acquired and safeguarded the artifact during this period.
Now: Currently resonating with Maya's soul, the Talisman has transformed into a latent power, its physical form dissolved into insignificance. Despite its diminished state, it retains formidable strength and mysterious abilities, accessible only to those Maya trusts implicitly. A hidden sigil, invisible to all but her trusted companion, gradually becomes more visible over time. When fully activated, the weapon can be summoned from the sigil located beneath Maya's neck, between her collarbones. Unaware of this hidden power, Maya unknowingly carries on the confidence her mother had in her. However, unbeknownst to Maya, the elders harbored an ulterior motive: upon Maya's death, the Talisman itself will cease to exist, marking the end of its luminous legacy.
Relationships and Meaningful Interactions
VASHARTI "VASH"| BROTHER | ALIVE
Maya's half-brother. Vash boasts a different mother, but he's yet to reveal who that is. Their recent meeting has been tentative, with little shared information between them. Despite Maya's lesser strength compared to Vash, he shows a surprising acceptance and protective instinct towards her. Vash is eager to introduce Maya to his home planet among the stars, which may explain her lifelong affinity for them.
JETT | GUARDIAN | ALIVE
Maya's protector, bound by a promise made to her mother in her final moments. Jett had not anticipated being entrusted with the care of a child, but he honors Ceres's trust without hesitation. Maya reciprocates by sharing stories of her mother, providing solace to Jett's soul. Recently, however, Jett has begun to slip into madness due to an undisclosed illness. This illness has caused him to act irrationally, even to the point of attacking Maya in a disassociated state. Maya has used her Charm Dancing abilities to soothe Jett during these episodes, a skill he had continually requested. Despite his illness driving Maya to flee from Jett's care for her safety, she remains steadfast in her vow to "fix him."
CERES | MOTHER | DECEASED
(My Retired Character of 9 years) Maya's Mother. Ceres cared for her daughter dearly and her quest for power was the final piece she needed to keep her daughter safe. Ceres ended up claiming the Void's power. This eventually drove her to gentle insanity. With a crazy plan to face the King of the Stars, Ceres and Jett eventually became Amir's downfall. This came at a cost; Ceres did not leave the battle alive. However, she entrusted Jett with Maya's wellbeing and happily said her final goodbyes knowing her daughter was free of her looming Father.
AMIR | FATHER | DECEASED
(Retired character of Vasharti's Player) Maya's father, Amir, a figure shrouded in darkness and never met by Maya. Ceres concealed Maya from him out of fear and kept her ignorant of his cosmic abilities. Maya bears physical traits of her father but lacks his cosmic powers. Though aware of his misdeeds and passing, she harbors no desire to delve deeper into his legacy or claim his abandoned title as King "Queen" of the Stars.

Comments
||Yay! I'm happy to hear that! (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ I just tossed a message your way containing the details, but I forgot to ask -- do you prefer comments or messages when it comes to writing? I typically use comments since it's easier for me to keep track of them, but if you prefer messages, I can adjust.
(Thank you, same with your page as well, loving your page as well and sure I would love to write with you!)
(Thank you or the invite)
||Hello! I apologize for the late reply, I haven't been able to write as much as I wanted recently. I'm still very much interested to write with you if you still have any spots available (if not that's okay, no pressure! ˙꒳˙). I'm actually tempted to dust off one of my sirens since they technically belong in the same ongoing story arc with my Cass, and after a bit of thinking I already have a small initial plot that I can suggest, but feel free to let me know!
{Hello my darling friend, I simply must apologize that it has been quite awhile since I had last sent anything, unfortunately few health and work matters kept me absent.. I hope you had a good summer and things had been well for you? If we were plotting, we can continue or we can start fresh, whichever you prefer. }
-That is okay! I was on a hiatus as well. Work has been crazy lately. Would you say Maya is a bit of an outcast in the Fairy community or close with the members of her tribe? Maleficent is known for her dark magic, but she is capable of possessing a connection with nature. She can do essentially what fairies are known for, but chooses not to. Technically that means Mal could really teach her anything she wanted to learn. I am trying to come up with an idea as to why she would help Maya.-
Meanwhile―
Tired and unsuspecting he slumbers. It was taxing existing where he did, without real nurture or presence. All but one presence would now and then visit. Though did so without warning or at many times without notice. It is happening again as those tired eyes close like many times before. From an unwelcomed smoke that seemed to appear out of nowhere does he step out from. Looking onto Santiago with a look of contempt, much as it was then, is so today. Dancing, electric crimson eyes focus their sights upon that porcelain face whose eyes are closed now. Janos' eyes smolder to a completely black, looking like empty sockets at this point. He rose a hand, stretching out to Santiago's stone face. With an itch, wanting to destroy that somewhat somber face, Janos doesn't. For many reasons that he sneers to himself.
With a deep breath, the devil turns with a whirling storm. He doesn't quite leave the chamber but turns to the furthest wall. Looking around as if for something, he waves a hand at the emptiness before him. With such, a mirror to the outside. " Searching for help? " he asks at no one in particular but was directing his words at the motionless Santiago behind him. He hadn't bothered turning, nor looking over his shoulder. Instead, Janos continues to look at what appeared before him. But this showcased nothing he wanted to see. There was no connection to Santiago's thoughts and that was irritating. With a clawed hand, Janos strikes at this and turns, finally.
Slipping both his hands behind himself, Janos stands there facing Santiago once more. Silently...patiently. Though that patience is rather thin, he had to make do for now. He had told himself that he would stay in the dark and watch this scenario unfold before he quashed it, seeing the light of hope fade from their eyes.
...Her eyes...
The thought slips through like a whispering wind in his mind while his head turns to the side for no particular reason, maybe for thought alone.
Yes...he thought as he looked around as if for something in particular. There were barriers to this place, some of which will need to be taken down for what was to transpire. Things he was going to allow, to an extent. A trap of sorts, if you will. It almost makes the devil smirk with amusement that they would think themselves successful when really they would only assume before being cornered like mice.
Sometime later―
Santiago's eyes opened slowly, slower than usual. His gaze was cast upon his hands where he held them close to one another. Tracing the lines in his palms for no reason, but he felt the ease he always does when he did this. The rustling of the dead greenery is a soothing lullaby for the vampire. Closing his eyes for a mere moment or so, a face comes to mind. His lips part with a quick, yet soft sigh. " Sasha... " The name rolls off his tongue so easily.
His eyes fly open and do more than just that, his shoulders seemed freer. He'd continue as if he could actually come free entirely from where he was imprisoned. Well, almost, because he attempts to move entirely away but isn't able to. He turns his attention down to his hips where he notices he is still encased in stone. A heavy exhale forces its way out of him without reserve. So, it's like that...he would say to himself. Santiago lifted his attention back up and looks around. The atmosphere wasn't as burdened, right to the point of him being able to fill his lungs, not that he needed to. But it is a function he was able to do.
" What gives...? " were the words that slipped from him as he squint his eyes looking into the darkness that hugged the walls. Nothing...so why was he able to sense her? It was faint, but something nonetheless. Desperation settles into him every nerve ending. Again, he looks down to his hips and just slams his fingers into the stone in an attempt to free himself. Whereas he could have lost much were he a human, there is little to no harm done with this. And like some desperate animal, he continues till he figures there was no getting free...
Outside near Maya―
The path that would have been obstructed to her is clear, but the dangers were gone. Instead, they were clear as day, unwelcoming. But this wasn't going to be a feat she would find impossible, there were ways and no doubt the female would find her way to her destination without a hitch. Especially with someone, or something clearing her path. Because curiosity was a damned thing...
||Of course, I'd love to see what kind of story we could come up with someday soon. ^^||
||Hello there and thank you. ^_^ I haven't gotten the chance to read through your page yet, but I'm looking forward to it.||
