Thala

Thala is the Numen of the Seas. Numens are divine gods that govern certain elements, his own being water. Thala's demeanor respectfully reflects that of the oceans. He's a still, standoffish an individual with a drastically changing attitude, especially when provoked. Sometimes he could appear cold, collected and still. Other times he's a inviting soul with a huge tendency to allure and relentlessly flirt with people. His most infamous, yet typical stance, is a sarcastic, bitter and waspish one. He can have a rather sharp tongue at times, readily able to show an attitude to those who piss him off. Along with this, Thala is prone to petty insults, and a challenging/defiant attitude. Nonetheless, Thala is a morally complex character, and could be described as morally grey. Typically, he goes about doing whatever he pleases, yet he doesn't usually go out of his way to harm anyone. His usual exterior demeanor however, is standoffish and cold.

(Friendly interaction, can be rather flirtatious.) "I agree... though a strikingly handsome fellow such as yourself could honestly go for something a little more," Thala pauses, swiftly bringing an delicately soft hand below the other's chin. His eyes glinted dangerously as he spoke, though his tone was soft and playful, "In your league, perhaps?"

(Unfriendly interaction. This happens if one manages to offend him.) Thala spoke no words, simply giving the other a look of distaste. With a quiet, dismissive huff, he swiveled around on his chair, returning to sipping away at his drink. He muttered through sips, "I really don't appreciate your bold little accusation there. Know your place."

Physically, Thala is a medium-heighted young man. Despite being a literal god, he had decided to take form as a human while living amongst them. His hair is a deep blue, long, reaching the end of his back. It's silky smooth, falling gracefully over his shoulders, and he wore curtain-like bangs that exposed his delicately feminine face. He's androgynous, and rather attractive, having cerulean-blue eyes, narrowed dangerously like a siren. Thala also had rather soft, pale skin, and soft hands. Clothes-wise, Thala wears a ruffle blouse, with a diamond-shaped window exposing his collarbones and top of his chest. He's complete with a laced-up corset, which outlined his softly toned figure, and pair of navy blue shorts. Accessories include, a garter on his left thigh, and a golden chain hooked to his belt.

The world Thala lives in is known as Amathix. It's an expansive continent, ruled by two distinctive pantheons of gods; Numens and Sovereigns. Numens are gods of the elements, as Thala is, and Sovereigns are gods of humanity. Numens and Sovereigns share a distinct rivalry.

"Hm. Sovereign trash," Thala murmurs dismissively. He quickly discarded the thought of them.

A minor relationship he shares, is with the Sovereign of Knowledge, Louis Hades. Louis is a rather tall, tanned man, with dark red hair that's usually tied in a neat bun, emerald green eyes, and a pair of vampire-like ears and fangs. Louis dresses proper, typically in dark colours. He can be described as a cold, stoic man of an aloof nature, who's fixated on the pursuit of knowledge and growth of the human mind. Thala despises Louis, even more than he despises the rest of the other Sovereigns. This relationship can be described as a silent rivalry, built on their strikingly contrasting personalities, and constant misunderstandings.

Louis is the Lord Governor of Hades, which is a Sovereign-ruled city. It's known to be bustling with crime and chaos, despite it's attempts to represent 'knowledge.' Thala has gone there sometimes.

"Louis? You mean the 'Lord Governor' of the city of Hades, city of knowledge?" Thala pauses, before barking an amused laugh. "Don't try to get me riled up. That man is infuriating to deal with. He's lucky I haven't decided to just sail over to Hades and strangle him myself."

Thala's home nation, which is rather far away, north-west of Amathix is based around the ocean. A flocking city of culture and seamanship, and they regularly praise the Numen of the Ocean, (being Thala) in hopes that he will bless sailors with safety and bountiful catches. Because this nature and culture, Thala tends to be inclined to the ocean.

"The ocean is a mystifying force. So beautiful, alluring, and still... yet it can cause chaos and destruction out of nowhere on a whim. Humans are right to revere and praise it."

Thala disguises himself as a human, where he wanders the city, and occasionally the rest of Amathix and other nations. He does however, make his status as the Numen known, for specific occasions, such as the ball he attends. All the human waiters and waitresses would be aware of his divinity, and serve him respectfully.

Final facts:

• Thala is attracted to masculine-presenting individuals.
• He dislikes sweet things, but enjoys small pasteries.
• He loves salty food, as it reminds him of the saltwaters of the oceans.
• Sometimes mistaken for a woman because of how pretty he is, though he doesn't really care.
• He has a mostly stable relationship with the rest of the Numens. Some are a little more unfriendly than others, but Thala is typically a loner anyways.
