Verden

"The only flower of the great forgotten one. The titan of wisdom whose follies are merely illusion to obscure his secrets and memories cultivated like the endless beauty that sprouts from his mother's body. Blessed Verden, the Aster, my Iris of all time, and the greatest flourish of Fatami, grow in wisdom like the endless reaches to heaven." -Book of Kumari, excerpt on Verden
Verden is a titan and the god of wisdom in the Oneto Pantheon. Worshipped in more subcultural areas, he is a rival to Sofic and known for his allyship to Kumari during the War for Arth. In some circles, he is also interpreted as a consort/lover to Kumari, and also as a fertility god due to his direct descent as the son of the late goddess of Arth, Fatami.
== Appearance ==
Verden is average height for a deity, around seven feet with a more built, rugged appearance with relatively low muscle mass, but some more detailed areas. He has dark tan skin littered with body hair and a thin beard and mustache combo with stubble. His hair color varies on the season, with it even alternating or gaining gradients depending on the time of year. His most consistent and notable feature is his eyes, which are honeydew green scleras with pantone red, unique, angular spiral-like eyes which form a diamond shape with a pupil dot at the center. His eyelashes are also a deep, pale seaweed green, their duller color contrasting with his more saturated eyes. He also has a strong, square jaw and chin, and a roman nose shape. 
As mentioned before, his hair color changes depending on the time of year, but his first appearance shows him with red hair, reminiscent of the Cosmos atrosanguineus species. It is indicated later on that this hair color is his fall color, although some illustrations draw his fall form with more orange hair. For his springtime color, he has shades of pink hair referencing the Dianthus caryophyllus flower, also known as the "clove pink" flower or more commonly, the carnation. His summertime form depicting pine green colors, the color of the needles of a pine tree, such as the Austrian Pine, or Pinus Nigra. For his winter appearance, he has umber brown hair, more specifically the raw umber color. 
For clothes, Verden's most prominent features are his bright, shining headband and long dangling earrings, which shine various colors. He wears mostly a long, bronze colored wrap robe and a dark yellow ochre bodysuit underneath, which covers his lower half and forearms, the area covering his arms appearing more like fingerless gloves which only cover his middle finger. Verden also wears a large cape made of various plants in a very bushy pattern, seemingly alive and magical as the cape itself is connected via his ears behind his earrings, and it displays magical traits like growth of itself or of other plants such as flowers. His cape is a feature shared with his mother, although she wears it as a sort of headdress and can be gleamed that Verden can wear it as one as well. 
== Personality ==
In contrast to his status as a god of wisdom, Verden appears very outwardly goofy and playful, never taking a formal tone with anyone regardless of their status or his personal feelings, making him an enigma to understand at times. However, his goofy appearance, while genuine to his loved ones, is a facade to others as a method of covering the fact that as a god of wisdom, he knows the secrets of many.

* Verden's wintertime form is the only one not based in color after a plant due to winter's status as a period of rest for plants.
