Personality |
Gaia was considered a quiet and gracious mother to all, though it was often said that her wrath could shake mountains and rearrange the seas. She is often kind and gentle, taking her time and never doing anything too quickly. She is wise and very few creatures can hear her voice, which is said to be the most beautiful in creation. Gaia doesn't know where she came from but she doesn't worry about it either, seeing all living things both good and bad as her children.
Mother Earth created her children and gave them minds of their own, preferring that they had free will and love them rather than be mindless puppets that could love her when she demanded it because then she would feel empty rather than any true love. She allowed them to take the forms of whatever the world decided as well, knowing that to truly be free they could not be like her. Thus came into being the wyvren goddess Tansa and the wolf god Siervo. She entrusted the world with them and feel into a trance like slumber as the earth, becoming the canvas for their own creations. Once the fighting between her two children began she awoke from her long slumber to beg for the fighting to stop because it was causing her pain. Despite the Great Calamity's wrath being locked away for a while and the wars ceasing, she was unhappy with the way her children fought and the wounds they inflicted on each other, both mental and physical. She soon began to weep as she watched the war against the wolves began. |
History |
Gaia, or Mother Earth, came into being long before the earth did, and she was lonely. She had brothers and sisters who all moved across the universe to create life on other planets but they left her alone and without any help. Without anyone near her or around her, and not knowing where she had come from or why she was here, she drifted aimlessly through the cosmos. Eventually she came across a place where there was simply nothing and she created a shell that she called "Earth".
Mirroring her own shell, others began to appear in great arcs around a large star, creating a swirling display. Nine others appeared, all which she named, but only her Earth was positioned correctly to create life. Gaia quickly poured her own existence into this shell, growing it larger and larger until it became enormous. Then she settled deep into the darkest parts of the center and began to create two beings. She created first Siervo, the winged wolf god that would later be known as The Ancient One. Then she created Tansa, the wyvren god that would later be known as The Great Calamity. She raised these two beings from infants to the point where they were strong enough to be given their powers. Because she was unsure how to create life and not feeling very inspired, she gave the job instead to these two. Gaia was powerful enough to create other gods, not quite as powerful as her, but powerful all the same. Unlike her they could not leave the world on which they were born and could not create other worlds or beings nearly as powerful as themselves at all, but they could create. Leaving it in their claws, Gaia turned the dark core of the world into the realm of the gods, a beautiful place where only she and her two children could visit. Then she vanished deep into the realm, to a place where even her children could not visit, and fell into a deep slumber in order to keep the world from falling apart. In her slumber she was all seeing and all knowing, feeling everything the earth felt and giving both life and death to the world in various places. Thus she created the various climates of the world, from the volcanoes to the arctic tundras, and then she left it to her children's devices. The Great Calamity created humanity first, which began to spread across the world. At first, it was good and the creatures were just. But the wyvren soon became blind to all else but their worship and they began to wage wars and pollute. Able to feel everything that was inflicted upon the earth, the pollution and wars caused Gaia to cry out. Her daughter was unable to hear her however and didn't stop, so she turned to her son. The Ancient One at first tried to reason with his sister, until it became clear she would not see reason. Unable to listen to his mother's sobbing any longer he waged war against his sister and her creature, casting her down into the sea and losing his wing in the process. He destroyed mankind and left the earth alone, allowing his mother to recover from the pain and the clean the earth for reuse again. Saddened by the war and wanting peace between her two children, she refused to take the Great Calamity's powers or destroy her, letting her sit in her prison created by her own brother. After she healed and rejuvenated the world, The Ancient One created the world of wolves instead and then the creature that lived within it. Then he created a realm to sort out the dead wolves from the good and the bad so that they could be allowed peace or given torment depending on their deeds to prevent wrongdoing. Another war began without provocation this time, and Gaia, knowing what her daughter was up to, prayed that her two children would be able to sort out their differences without destroying everything they had ever worked for this time. Gaia waits now patiently as the war wages on, watching and giving life, as well as taking it away. |
Abilities |
Gaia, or Mother Earth, is the most powerful of the three gods. Unsure of where she came from or why she is here, she took charge of her own destiny despite her loneliness of being separated by her siblings. She believes she may have been created at the dawn of the universe, but doesn't worry about why or how. She has the ability to create whole planets, some of which can grow without her power and turn into gas giants or otherwise drift along a large star which is known to inhabitants of her world as "the sun".
However in order to maintain a world that can give life she must sleep in its depths. In doing so she becomes part of the planet itself and is able to sense everything that is good or bad, or even everything wrong with the planet. When it is harmed she is harmed. She can speak freely to her two god children while she sleeps, and its said that her voice is the wind itself that rushes across the world. Her wrath can created natural disasters while her tears can cause rain to fall. Gaia became the earth in order to preserve life and all that live on it. That is why it is said that she is "Mother Earth" and the origin of all life. While she is aware that her siblings are out there in the universe somewhere, all assumingly as powerful or more than she, she hasn't seen them in a long time. Gaia can also create gods less powerful than herself to govern the world she made, and she can also take their powers away and make them no more powerful than the creatures they created or even destroy them. Being a kind mother however she refuses to do so, even when the consequences are dire. She believes strongly in second chances. |
