Athena

## Soul Searcher

The words soul searcher take on a very literal meaning for Athesis. They are forever on the hunt to gather up all the pieces of their soul before they are able to move on to the next phase of death. This task was given to them by The First Elder and is deemed impossible to fulfill because the person has to grab every piece of their soul no matter how small it is. They travel through different worlds, universes, timelines, etc. gathering up these pieces as best they can. They have to live out the lives and essentially die repeatedly. This knowledge is not accessible to them in all universes and doesn't give them any power buffs. Athesis would know about their job of being a soul searcher in some universes, but have no clue about any of it in others. ***The soul fragment plays by the rules of the universe it is in. The soul will never break the rules of the universe it is in unless it is MEANT to break that universe.***

They can see their past versions of themselves if the universe allows it, but they will usually *never* call on past versions of themselves because it can them in a week long coma (at minimum) that makes them deathly sick and very weak. They do recover from said sickness eventually. The sickness will vary from universe to universe, fitting in with the scene present. The longest they've ever been in said coma has been about a century and when they woke the sickness they had had killed everything with it, leaving an overgrown desolate world with literally no people. in that world they lived until they were about 215 years old (115 + 100 years in coma) . They consider this world to be the saddest one they ever lived in.

The First Elder is a very powerful deity who can literally create and destroy everything and anything at will. They are the oldest being in existence and have literally destroyed the pantheon of gods they used to be apart of because they got greedy with power, claiming it all for themself and themself only. Athena really doesn't know what to think about the First Elder because they're not exactly good and not exactly bad. Athesis takes every word The First Elder tells them with caution. The First Elder has shared many memories with Athesis directly, namely them knowing each other since their first life. Athesis has also been in in said deities shoes for some time too.

Athesis has asked the First Elder 'Why am I the only you keep around? Why is it only me you wish to stay by?' The First Elder refused to answer that question for Athesis for the longest time, only answering it eight and a half centuries later. The First Elder was ashamed to tell Athesis that the reason why was because they were each others first loves. After talking about that life more Athesis learned that the First Elder was apart of the first humans in existence and Athesis was human-esque. Athesis was born as a 'human' to The First Gods, being an experiment that they set out into the world. They have blocked out that life almost entirely because of how fucked up it was. The only good memories that cAthena has from their first life was using a butter churner, singing to themself in the barn with the farm animals around them and being with the deity when the deity was human.

When the Deity became a deity they got along well with the others for a long time. Then the humans started to evolve and become horrors. Many of the gods had abandoned The First Humans at that point, The First Elder choosing to stick around before going on a rampage and abusing their powers to the fullest to destroy everything--including the world they were apart of. They kept Athesis's soul safe by placing them in a pseudo-world, only pulling them out of it two millennia later. Once they were pulled out their soul fractured into a million and ten pieces due to the sheer force The First Elder pulled them out with. They couldn't move on with everyone else because they had no soul to move on with.

## Life Before The Minecraftification

*DISCLAIMER: This is when Athena went by* Athesis*. For ease of reading and due to the flow of timelines the name Athesis will be used. Over the course of the three lives the pronouns will go from* she/her *to* she/they *to* they/them *from the third life onward. Please use do not correct these pronouns to they/them. Their appearance also changes drastically as well through these three lives. Do not correct this either.*

*Everyone mentioned in this section is a character made by* someone else*.

If you are reading this and recognize anything mentioned below, please* private message *me on twitter or tumblr and let me know please. These will also be very paraphrased as well. All three of these lives have been 7 months long at minimum.*

### Significant Life no. 1

**SUMMARY**: This is Athena's 'first' life, it is the most important to them. This is the life where they learned everything they know about worlds. Athesis has little to no memories of their life while they were growing up, their memories truly "starting" when they met **Ryder**. Ryder was a lot of Athesis's believed 'firsts'. First friend, first love, first partner, first everything. The consider this life to be their most precious and would not give it up for anything, even if it meant saving the world they were living in.

Athesis had no idea where she was. It was dark, there was trees and dead leaves on the ground. The air was damp with rainfall and did not help with she has no idea of where she is. The moonlight helped just barely with visibility, a hindrance that she was a little bit grateful for. She could feel the dirt and grime on her person, *"Gods I hate this right now."* They mumbled to themselves, putting a hand up to shield some of the rain from their eyes.

There was a clearing up ahead with little round blubs moving around in the area. People! There's people there! Athesis moved faster towards the vague people shaped things, sounds of fighting and wrestling leaving those there. *I need to be careful, I don't know these people.* She had hidden herself behind some bushes, watching the fighting happening in front of her. It was intense to watch. There was four people sparring eachother, shouting various tips and such to eachother.

## Life After The Minecraftification

### Pre-SMP

Athena has only known life as a wanderer between worlds and universes, rarely staying in one place for to long. They keep this part of them a secret to others, the only one who knows their past is Blaire and Viy. They have many trinkets they keep on them from different places, passing it off as something they made. These items are decorated through their base. They keep vast collection of dead flower crowns over their bed post, small tags with names on them adorning each one. They are shaped in a circle with two flower crowns in the middle. The crown on the right is significantly smaller than the crown on the left, a small tag with the name ‘Phrog-I will come back for you.’ tucked in between the dead flowers.

Athena used to be apart of an smp (with chefffbasil) called BasilSMP. It was there they formed a close sibling like bond with one of the members, Phrog. The two were practically inseparable, helping each other out and existing in each others company with peace. They long to go back to the SMP to see everyone again. It was the first place they felt at home.

### Early days

In the early smp Athena kept to themselves quite a bit, getting a visit from DreamXD once they built their house. That visit was unpleasant to say the least. They were quite unnerved for a time afterwards, scaring people off their lawn and out of their garden. They tolerated being in the Greater DreamSMP before fully committing allegiance to Eret. They liked to stay out of conflict and away from people. On the rare occasion they would help out those who were hurt, keeping conversations short and dry out of distrust for everyone around them.

#### **Election Era**

During the Election Era Athena sided with Coconut2020 because of aligning interests. They did cast a genuine vote for the party, expressing large distaste for the votes being thrown out because of fabrication. They continued to listen to the results of the election, fear settling in their heart when Wilbur announced that he allowed SWAG2020 and Schlatt2020 to merge. They protested loudly with Niki when Schlatt announcing the banishment of Tommy and Wilbur. They did their best to provide protection to the two as they ran, running with them for a second with a shield in hand.

They watched as Tommy and Wilbur ran before turning their head back to Schlatt and listening to the rest of his speech.

### Life in Eret’s Castle

Athena made the choice to get the job at Eret’s castle after realizing that they can’t spend their time on the server alone. Eret had been nothing but friendly to them and let them be after avoiding the kingdom tax (they do not believe in taxes). There was lots of debate and thinking on Athena's end before they say fuck it and walked into the palace. They asked what positions needed filling and discovered there was no chef for the kitchen. They took it upon themselves to fill in that role, cooking meals and treats for the staff and those who wander in.

### The Egg

During the Eggpire, Athena stayed away from it as much as they could. They had a strong distaste for the egg, Athena did pay the egg two visits: the first time to see what was "so great" about the egg when it first started to "sprout". The second time was for the red banquet. They catered some food for the event, making sure to only eat what they made. Both times the egg tried to very poorly recruit them into it's ranks. Athena's desire was not one that the egg could provide or exploit because they will never admit what they want to themselves. They are very anti-egg to the movement, yet very sympathetic to the people. It was a thing that control those who could be controlled. They don't like the egg, but will help those hurt by the egg.

## Personality:

Athena is a person of many layers and walls that have built up over the many years of their existence. How they are upon meeting varies from person to person, for some they are pleasant. Others say Athena is an absolutely horrid person to be around and can't be trusted. They keep their cards pressed close to their chest and are not very keen on sharing everything they have with everyone. They exhume a natural confidence and loud voice on the daily, making it a rare and frightful sight to see them worried or unsure of themselves in a dire situation. Athena likes to keep a level head when in a stressful situation. They can easily take control of the room and get peoples attention however the situation calls for it. They are not the best when it comes to expressing their emotions/ They often have to add feeling to their words when they speak so they don't sound so monotonous.

## Appearance:

Athena stands at 6'7, towering over many people with ease. It takes a lot for them to feel short when they're surrounded by others. They have tan-ish skin with wavy, vibrant brown hair that is cut short. It is loosely styled to visually look like a short mullet. They have a notably curvy body that is decorated with various scars, their most notable ones being the one on their face and hand--traveling up the arm. Their eyes are two different colors, their left eye being a very bright teal, near white and their right eye being a bright teal. They are very expressive and use their whole body when talking, having to usually get up and move around while doing so.

Athena will switch out their clothes depending on the season. Their most iconic outfit however is a red Technoblade Hoodie that has the sleeves rolled up to their elbows, paired with straight cut blue jeans and either one of the many pairs of converse they own, black combat boots, or one inch platform shoes.

Their Castle Staff uniform is akin to something that would be worn by an 18th century working woman. The clothes are tailored to fit their figure perfectly with the right undergarments. Their favorite garment they have is the stays they wear. No this does not make it difficult to breath or do work in.

They will wear long dresses and skirts on occasion, keeping the garments visually interesting with layers and various accessories.
