Akabame, Goddess of the South

## Summary

### Story

Daikata had been suffering from stomach pains for quite a while, the pain was severe enough to have him essentially bedridden for days. In an effort to relieve himself, he triggered an eruption that blanketed the skies in clouds of ash; it worked, but only because that eruption gave birth to a new god. A crimson, birdlike creature wrapped in flames; and with one mighty flap of its wings, it dispersed the dark veil. Letting loose a powerful, earthshaking cry to announce its presence; this was the birth of Akabame. A lively and charismatic deity, she got along with just about everybody; this, along with her diligence in protecting the mortals from evil spirits, is what led them to worship her. As the goddess who represents the season of summer, she has the ability to manipulate fire, heat, light, and plant life; and with jurisdiction over the southern region of the planet, she uses these abilities to benefit the mortals she looks after. Though, as much as they loved her, they feared her just as much; maybe even more. Being the offspring of Daikata, she inherited his temperamental behavior; causing massive collateral damage when angered. This temper is what led her to create her floating island and severely limit her interactions with mortals. She was among the many who fought in the Uma Purge War, using her divine flames to burn the opposition out of existence. Since then however, she has not been seen or heard from; and thus, has faded into myth. Despite this, her influence is still present in the world; will she return?

### Personality

Akabame is a passionate and charming goddess, taking proactive approaches to her job as a guardian deity and allowing her to make connections with others fairly quickly; these factors are why she has such a devout following. However, she can be quite temperamental, resulting from her stubbornness and competitive behavior.

**Powers and Abilities:**

* **Godhood(Four Symbols)**: As a member of the apexins, Akabame is a transcendent being who exists in a state free from the constraints of the material plane; as such, she can act independently of it. Due to this incorporeal state of being, she requires avatars to interact with the lower planes. These avatars usually manifest as a tiger-like entity. Physically, spiritually, and mentally beyond all forms of harm or influence, her abilities are viewed as supernatural to outside observers; powers such as:
	+ **Godly Condition**: Her godlike physiology affords her incomprehensible levels of strength, speed and durability. Her divine senses give her cosmic level awareness allowing her to hear prayers across astronomical distances and see anything across time and space. Akabame can grow stronger through various styles of worship.
	+ **Immortality**: As an ethereal being who transcends the material world and its laws, Akabame cannot die through conventional means. Even if something could "kill" her, she can simply resurrect herself.
	+ **Ether Manipulation**: Apexins are composed of ether, a divine substance that exists in all planes of reality, this allows beings like Akabame to manipulate it as if it were an extension of herself. Through this, she has godly authority over elemental, cosmic, spiritual, and transcendental forces. Manipulating reality on a scale of atomic to conceptual.
	+ **Space-Time Lock**: Akabame's existence is on an immeasurably higher plane, meaning that alterations to the timeline will have little to no effect on her.
	+ **Sanctification**: She can bless various substances using ether, giving them divine properties; making them more powerful and particularly effective against malevolent beings like umas, who can be purified or saved through contact with these sacred objects. This even applies to her dominion, allowing her to manipulate sacred elements such as holy fire.
	+ **Divine Dominion**: Akabame is the goddess who presides over Undosa's southern region and summer, granting her an array of associated abilities; she can manipulate aspects of this season on a godly scale; from plant life to heat among other things. These abilities are amplified to nigh omnipotence when she's in her realm.
* **Divine Combat Proficiency**: She has a divine level skill in armed and unarmed combat. Akabame is so skilled and powerful, she can fight off multiple higher-dimensional opponents at once.
