## Biography

### Early Life

#### Born in the Void

Gaia was the first born daughter of the Goddess of the Abyss, Khaos. She was formed from the Dark Energy as an embodiment of life itself and eventually of the Earth. Her existence at the beginning was confusion, something her siblings all shared, until they all found their purpose and worked to achieve it.

#### Mother of All

Gaia, exercising her nature as the Goddess of Life, used her power of Pantheon Spawning, inherited from her mother, to produce three offspring by herself. The Ourea was first, Gaia's daughter who represented the mountains on the Earth's surface. Next was Pontus, her son who embodied the seas. And finally Ouranos, Gaia's male counterpart who embodied the heavenly sky and who she took as her king to rule over the cosmos.

She and Ouranos had a total of eighteen children together, including the three Arimaspi, giant grotesque humanoids with a single large eye, the three Hecatoncheries, massive creatures with fifty heads and one hundred arms, and the twelve Titans, beautiful powerful beings who presided over the concepts their progenitors embody. Gaia loved her children and wanted to have more. She visited her brother, Tartaros and talked him into making more children with her. They produce three children together, large and powerful, monstrous serpentoids.

#### Best Friends

Gaia was very close with her younger sister Physis, spending lots of time around her. Physis looked up to Gaia, saw her as a roll model, and allowed her to find her purpose as the first Mother Nature.

### Titanomachy

#### Banishment of Gaia's Children

Gaia loved all of her children, no matter what they looked like. This sentiment could not be said for her husband, however. Ouranos, used his great power to banish the Hecatoncheries and Arimaspi away to farthest corners of the Void so he never has to see them again. Gaia disposed what he did to her children and hastily divorced the sky god with no remorse. He new goal now was to take away her ex-husbands power and free her children.

#### Castration of Ouranos

Eventually, Gaia came up with the perfect plan to depower her ex-husband, Ouranos. She created a large scythe, large and powerful enough to weaken or even kill a Primordial. However, since Gaia did not have a physical form, she could not attack Ouranos himself, and therefore needed one of her children to execute her plan. She asked all of them but they all refused except for one, her youngest son, Kronos who agreed with no hesitation.

When Ouranos eventually returned to Gaia one night, Kronos revealed himself from the shadows, sliced off his father's genitals, and flung them into the Void. Once Ouranos was depowered and faded away, Gaia and the other Protogenoi stepped down, relinquishing the rule of the cosmos over to the Titans. She asked Kronos, the new king, to return the Hecatoncheries and Arimaspi to the kingdom, but he refuses. Gaia begs with her son, but the power-hungry youth does not relent. A betrayed Gaia relishes her mistake and looks through time to find a solution.

#### Looking in the Future

Gaia used her connection to terrestrial planets to peer through time and space and see how the Titanomachy will end, specifically, if her children will ever be freed. In her vision she saw that the war concluded on Earth and the Olympians taking over the kingdom. However, although the Arimaspi and Hecatoncheries are freed and joining the kingdom, the Titans where locked away in Tartarus.

#### Leaving the Pantheon

In the end, Gaia still did not get what she wanted, all of her offspring living together in piece. She gave up on the Pantheon she started and left them once the Prime Universe came into existence.

### Second Chance

#### Deal with the Collector

While Gaia wandered the Universe, she is approached by a mysterious and powerful entity known as the Collector. The Collector knew about Gaia's self proclaimed failure and offered her a chance at a second chance. To start over again with new children in a new world unaffected by the one she leaves behind. And there, she can make a family that truly loves each other like she always wanted. Gaia, intrigued by the Faerie's notion, agrees to try again and leaves with the Collector to the Meta Timeline.

#### Rise of the Titans

Gaia and the Collector travelled to Earth in the Meta Timeline where Gaia was able to properly exercise her Pantheon Spawning abilities to form organic copies of the Titans who took control of the planet. Gaia loved them just as she loved her original children and wanted nothing but the best for them.

#### Failed Again

The Titans had other plans however, repeating the mistakes of their counterparts and repeating history. Another Titanomachy broke out between the Titans and Olympians which resulted in the same way the one she left behind did. The Collector approached Gaia again saying that she can try again, starting over in a new timeline until she is satisfied. However, Gaia refused and abandoned the Collector and the Meta Timeline, returning home to the Mother Timeline.

### Queen of the Kami

#### Joining the Kami

Gaia made her way to the lower level of the Ether where she found a small village hidden within a great forest. The people there have recently suffered the loss of their princess and king, and are looking for new leadership. Gaia, going by the alias Fjörgyn to better fit in, introduces herself to the Numen race of Kotoamatsukami and becomes their new queen.

#### Run in with the Collector

Fjörgyn ruled over Takamagahara for several millennia until she stepped down and left her Kami son, Njörd as the king. She left the city and explored the other regions of Iðavöllr. As she was walking through a clearing she was found by an angry Collector who attempted to rip out Gaia's Creation Spark and force her to Pantheon Spawn the Titans of the Noir Timeline. However, Gaia predicted this would happen and hid her Creation Spark outside of her Avatar. Fjörgyn rationalizes and backs the Collector into a corner, forcing her to have a conversation like the adults they are.

The Collector is under strict orders by the Author to somehow produce the Titans for the Noir Timeline and needs Gaia to do it. However, Gaia realized that no mater the origin, her offspring was meant to war with each other. She did not want to feel the pain of her children fighting each other again. Desperate, the Collector began to beg prompting Fjörgyn to suggest she creates them herself, doubling down on her decision to not help before leaving.

#### Meeting the Æsir

Fjörgyn eventually found the city of Asheim and quickly befriended them. She met Asheim's ruler Odin and had a child with him they named Thor.

### Becoming Mother Nature

## Personality

Gaia, a formidable and multifaceted character, personifies the Earth itself and is revered as the goddess of all terrestrial planets. As the embodiment of life and the first of the primordial gods, she carries an immense presence. Gaia's journey unfolds as a complex tapestry, characterized by her intelligence, extraordinary power, and a compelling blend of maternal love and vengeance.

Upon her birth and mastery of her powers, Gaia's initial act was the creation of Ourea, Pontus, and Ouranos, a remarkable feat accomplished without the need for a male counterpart. She married Ouranos and bore numerous children, cherishing them deeply. Her love knew no bounds, even extending to her offspring with Tartaros. Her world shattered when Ouranos, in a fit of anger, banished their children.

In response to this injustice, Gaia crafted a weapon to depower Ouranos, entrusting her son Kronos with the task of orchestrating a coup against their tyrannical father. However, her trust was betrayed when Kronos failed to release his siblings as Gaia had intended, leading to a rupture in their familial bond. Endlessly looking through time, Gaia sought a future where her children could coexist harmoniously. Heartbroken by the bleak outcomes she witnessed, she made the painful decision to leave behind her friends and family in pursuit of a more harmonious reality.

Gaia's character is marked by her intelligence and wisdom. Yet, she faced deception by the Collector, coerced into creating a new set of Titans for another timeline. When history began repeating itself, she withdrew her support, unwilling to perpetuate a cycle of conflict among her children. In a remarkable display of her wit and resilience, Gaia protected herself from the Collector's manipulations, persuading the entity to let her be. The Collector's desire for her to create Titans again, as she had been tricked into doing before, was met with Gaia's unwavering refusal.

Her compassion shines through in her support of the struggling kingdom of Takamagahara, where she assumed the role of queen. Eventually, she bestowed her throne upon another child before departing once more.

In essence, Gaia emerges as a character defined by her role as both the Earth itself and the nurturing yet vengeful mother of creation. Her actions and decisions reflect a deep sense of love for her children and a fierce determination to protect them from harm, even if it means making difficult choices and confronting powerful adversaries. Gaia's character is a testament to the profound complexities and depths of a deity connected to life and the natural world.
