Maya | "My-a"
Full Blooded Fairy
22 | "Ages Gracefully"
Neutral | Leans towards Good
Single | Independent | Not Looking
Born in the secluded forests of Katalam located in Russia, Maya lived a relatively normal life for a Fairy. Her tribe consisted of mostly Earth Fairies. Still, her clan accepted her just as they had her mother all those years ago. With no mentor due to elemental differences, Maya has barely begun to scratch the surface of her Fae abilities.
As the past would state. Maya's mother fell from the Heavens long ago. A Fae servant to the Angels she'd no longer be. Maya's mother had always seen the logic in Lucifer's ways and thus made a choice. This lead her mother through trials like no other.
Some believe Lucifer was the reason for her Mother's death. Other's say Ceres (Maya's Mother) lost touch with reality when the Void corrupted her.
Either way, Maya was young when her mother "abandon" her. A dangerous quest became her downfall. Only now that Maya has chosen to venture out of Katalam's Woodlands and into civilization has she begun to unravel the great battle that was fought on the very grounds she thrived.
The Golden Child..
50% Arabic / 50% Unknown
Not such a Golden Child after all. Maya's birth was a complete accident. Not only that, it was completely against her mother's will. Her father not only ran experiments on, but raped Maya's mother on several occasions in order to create the "Perfect" Hybrid. Unfortunately, Maya was not that prize he sought.
Once her mother escaped to freedom, she kept Maya a secret from everyone except her Fae Clan. While Maya was completely unplanned and conceived under the worst of conditions, Ceres still loved Maya dearly.
While Maya does not know this history, it's expected that one day she will find out. Perhaps the origins of her half-brother will come to light. While Maya has heard rumors of a half-kin, she's yet to see or discover more about him.
Her mother has left her specific instructions. Being the good 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, thus her abilities mirror her origins. This doesn't stop her from having a deep affinity with the stars. She's always been not only fascinated but drawn to them. While the answer lies in her father's genes, Maya is not yet aware of this. The recessive traits of her father have left her with virtually nothing but his looks. Maya is still learning and has barely begun to develop her elemental nature. Most abilities will appear as her story progresses and she learns!
Abilities
Basic Water Magic: While still under heavy development, Maya has managed to form small water spears and other projectiles. Unfortunately, her control is very unstable and often isn't reliable in battle.
Fairy Dust: Often Sought after by hunters and witches alike. Maya has never used this dust on anyone and doesn't actually know the effects of it. The dust naturally forms and collects on her wings only falling off when there is excess. It is said to be highly popular on the black market.
Water Healing: Maya can use bodies of water such as Rivers, Lakes, etc. to heal herself or others.
Water Dancing: An enchanting dance that holds little to no beneficial effects. It is said to cure minor ailments such as poisons and other sicknesses. This ability has also been known to grant rest to the warry, and overall produce a calming effect.
Charm Dancing: A secret dance that Maya has discovered the effects of overtime. Once practiced alone for her own peace and comfort, the Fairy quickly learned of its alluring effects on other creatures. While it seems to affect animals and beasts more strongly, her dancing can soothe and draw in most anyone; some may simply feel a sense of ease while others could be afflicted enough to where Maya could impose her will on the target. It is her version of a Siren song. She's only ever used this ability on Jett per his request.
The Talisman of Absolute Law
Once a well sought after piece for its power. The necklace was stolen from the King of the Stars and passed to Maya's mother, Ceres. It is said the necklace was once guarded by an ancient Ronin Tribe in the mountains of present-day Japan. Maya's mother guarded this with her life, only parting with it before the Great War began. With the help of several Fae elders, Ceres buried the powerful artifact inside of Maya. The Necklace no longer exists, but its power remains. It is a power Maya cannot wield herself. In compliance with the rules put into effect by the elders, the Talisman will only show its face when its owner trusts a wielder.
Absolute LawThen & Now
Then: The Talisman of Absolute Law was a once heavily guarded object, that could only be channeled by extremely high magical abilities and immense stamina. The Necklace had the ability to bring lesser beings to their knees in unwavering compliance. Stolen by the King's servant in order to maintain balance and safety for others, Maya's mother acquired and protected the artifact in this state.
Now: Currently resonating with Maya's soul. The Talisman is dissolved, its power reduced to a weapon. While the weapon bares great strength and unknown abilities, it can no longer be wielded by just anyone. Maya makes that choice unknowingly based on her trust levels. A sigil, hidden to all eyes, will slowly become more and more visible to her trusted companion with time. Only when fully ignited can the weapon be summoned from the sigil located below her neck, between her collarbones. Maya is unaware of this power buried within. It only adds to the confidence her mother had in her. While this helped Ceres, the elders had another motive. When Maya dies, the Talisman as well will see its last light.
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. The two have recently met and not yet shared much information with one another. Maya is much weaker than him, but Vash seems oddly accepting. He appears to have a brotherly protectiveness about him. While he's eager to take Maya to his home planet in the stars, Maya has thus far declined. Perhaps this explains her affinity to the Stars all along.
JETT | GUARDIAN | ALIVE
Maya's protector. Jett had vowed to fulfill a favor to Maya's mother while she took her last breaths. However, Jett was not expecting a child of all favors. While Maya's mother trusted Jett with her life, she trusted no one with the knowledge of Maya's life. Thus Maya followed her mother's orders and sought Jett out. He protects her with his life, and she tells him stories of her mother from the past. These stories somehow comfort the Lost Soul
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) Father to Maya. She's never met him and was quickly hidden away from him by her mother. She retains several features of his physically, but virtually none of his Cosmic abilities. While Maya knows of his wrong-doings as well as his passing, she has no interest in learning more about him. Maya was his first attempt and creating the perfect Starcaller. Unfortunately, she was a failure. While she's technically Royalty, she has no interest in claiming her father's fallen title of King "Queen" of the Stars.
Comments
― A change of hands
Hunters were after her but it is a vampire that saves her. Save for the bite he'd taken from her and a fair amount of that fae blood that from what he saw firsthand, was addicting. He had had to pry the vampire off of her when he had attempted a second go on the girl. Mammon had been moving around when he found himself here, near the facility where the vampire's doctor was staying. They both had remained quiet and under the radar, with good reason. There came a time when the vampire would go about his own and lose his mind, attacking anything that seemed wounded or weak to a vampire's bloodlust. He had good reason for being here but that is a tale for another day. For now, Maya was now in Mammon's care. If one could call that good care. Maya had gone from a pair of fangs to a pair of wings, which, thrust as they moved through the air.
She was coming around and that drew his attention. They needed to land then, he thought as he touched ground up top a random building. Left foot first then the other. He had yet to say something, letting her find her bearings and focus. When she is able to, she will find herself in someone else's company, someone she probably forgot by now. He'd left a little something with her before disappearing. Maya had been left to fend for herself, given that she had made it clear she was more than capable? When Mammon had left, she'd stumbled upon a vampire, who, funny enough was tied to someone Mammon was an acquaintance to. That aside, you could say it's a small world. Of sorts.
Mammon recalls the initial thought but did he really need to cage the little fae? Inwardly he shook his head to the thought. Rather than pets, he needed to increase his following and those that could possibly strengthen the very foundation he was building. Could he possibly use a fae like this? Time would tell. For now, he had to take responsibility? Sometimes he humors himself, bringing a faint grin to his face. While it didn't seem that Maya was yet fully aware of herself, he stepped off the ledge of the rooftop and into the air both went again. It doesn't take long before he's hauled her elsewhere entirely, say his loft. There were no shady intentions behind him doing so, he simply needed her off the streets and attention drawn away from both her and himself.
Once inside, he places her on the couch, while he wandered off to get her a glass of water...
-appears from behind-
Me? disappear? You are mistaken. I like hiding in shadows, fairy.
But alas, what kind of news would you like?
Santiago's eyes rolled back, not simply because this was the first in so, so long that he'd seen another other than his jailor. Or the jailor's servant, but because this might be his first-ever escape. To be free, he thought and finally plot his revenge and what's more, retrieving his Sasha. Who knows where she is but what he does know, is that she is close by. How close? He isn't sure.
The fae was a breath of fresh air, a light in this eternal darkness he has been prisoner to for so long. Santiago was impervious to the sunlight but given he has not seen it in so long, who knows what sort of effects it might have on him now. He will just have to see, eventually.
Upon hearing her voice and her approach, he opened his eyes, casting their gaze upon the fae. "Maya," he said as if he'd known her in some other lifetime. Much like knowing his name, it was just there in her memory, rising to the occasion.
The curse upon him wasn't something trifle, it was old. Even though it seemed like a common practice amongst others of her kin or friends. Every spell carried something different, say, the ingredient or a countermeasure should someone attempt to tamper with this spell or that. His own eyes follow the curious hand, the stone seemed almost ancient and it vibrated to her touch. Though it was a reaction Santiago himself could not feel, being that he was encased in it but not part of it. Strange enough.
"What do I do now?" Her question was expected and he had an answer to that. He was still a vampire and because he hasn't fed on living blood in so long, he was unable to free himself from this hell. Santiago hadn't expected a fae to answer his plea and he isn't sure what manner of effects her blood might have on him. The last blood he'd taken was that of his demonic wife, Sasha. It had sealed his fate that day but he was also deprived of her that same day, having fallen prisoner and his likeness and very existence substituted by the likes of the devil who holds him here.
"Blood," he said to her. Surely she knew by now what he was, that when he spoke, fangs were evident. Though concealed partially due to his pale complexion. Blood was going to be the second step to his attempt of getting free and out of here, with her help of course...
"Hmm?"
Don't worry about not replying yet, I'm in no rush. So, do so whenever you can.
I'm simply lurking as I do every time that I get a chance. It's not meant to intimidate, much...
