Persephone
- looks to be about 18 but is far older than that. She's actually thousands of years old.
- Female
- straight
- Appearance: Persephone is a very pretty young lady. Her hair most resembles the color of a stock of wheat. She looks very close to what her mother Demeter looks like of course with a few different features. Her hazel eyes always seem to have the lightness of spring to them. When she smiles she can make most people's hearts melt. Her skin is paler than most for having to be in the underworld for half of her days
- Personality: Persephone is a very loving young lady. She does not think badly of anyone until they give her a reason to think badly of them. She is in charge of taking those who have died to her husband by any means possible. She is a greeter and friendly in that respects at all times. She has a very innocent and kind heart. She loves natures and does not like to see anyone suffer unnecessarily.
She on the other hand can get very angry with someone who has done wrong to her. She does fight with her husband at times just when she is going back to see her mother. She will show her darker side if you provoke it out of her. Most who do that learn quickly to never do it again. She has a mean streak that can be overlooked and its bad when man or god over looks it. She is good natured no matter what her mood however. - History: Persephone was born to Demeter and the pride and joy of her mother. She was the idle daughter for any Goddess to have because she was so care free. She would go out and play with her fellow Nymph companions picking flowers and helping her mother with the harvest. However this mere innocent play would lead to devistation as she grew older.
As a teen she attracted the attention of the god of the underworld. He was told by Zeus that she could be his bride and when about trying to figure out how to do so. He planted a narcissus in the meadow where she went to pick flowers with her friends. When she pulled on it he took her. She was not at all happy about it but did not put up much of a fight once she was down in the underworld with him because she could not.
Her mother finally got her back only by the means of a compromise. She was to spend part of the year with Hades and part of the year with her mother. Mother and daughter were reunited and Spring came into being. All was right in the world. Now Persephone is hearing wind of things she does not like. She is determined to see what is up with her fellow gods and goddesses. She senses that doom in near and she's not liking that feeling.
