| ==== Legendary Abilities ====
| |
|
| |
| '''B-But I'm Just A Fluffy Kitten! *Tears*:''' You're innocent, or rather, everybody thinks you are. The king dies and they find you with a bloodied knife in your hands? Clearly you were preparing dinner. The sector defenses are offlined and you were the only one without an alias? Oh, isn't she cute, she just got lost on the way home from school! This isn't just the ability to deflect suspicion as it is the near mythical ability to sway the most suspicious of tricksy bastards.
| |
|
| |
| '''One Hundred Ten Percent:''' Your dedication and love for your subordinates has forged them into tools that smith-gods would weep to behold. Those who you command, whether bureaucrat or soldier or sailor, put far more into their work than they normally would. Under you, every one of their tasks, no matter how small, has the effort and drive put into a magnum opus. Having this trait tends to require high Charisma to inspire.
| |
|
| |
| '''Rabble Rouser:''' Some people have faces which launch a thousand ships. You have a voice which can start a thousand wars. Planetary governments topple at your words, no matter if they are fiery and passionate or calm and collected. You could take loyal soldiers of the enemy and in a week of conversation, have them all swear fealty to your cause. You are an instigator of rebellion with no equal outside of the trickster-gods.
| |
|
| |
| '''Tricksy Bastard:''' Like Odysseus, you are deceitful and tricky. You are possibly also a complete and utter bastard, also like Odysseus. You can pull off incredible feats of deception at short notice.

| === History ===
| |
|
| |
| Long ago, seven hundred Fir Bolg assaulted Asgard at the behest of Loki. While a mortal race, the Fir Bolg were shielded from divine intervention of any kind- a potent weapon against the Aesir and their servants. To combat the invaders, Odin, the All-Father assumed the guise of Dagda and had the Formorians raise an army of mortals, the Tuatha de Danaan.
| |
|
| |
| As Dagda, Odin hoped to create a new pantheon of deities and heroic mortals who would be 'Ragnarok Exempt'- that is, not factored into the calculations of CASE RAGNAROK, and thus capable of surviving such a hypothetical scenario. However, the Fir Bolg, angry at their defeat at the hands of the Tuatha de Danaan, told the Formorians of how their god was an imposter, a trickster using them as the Fir Bolg had been used by Loki. The ancestor of the Fir Bolg and the Formorians, the Einjehar Neit, confirmed the tale, and the Formorians rebelled against Dagda and attempted to slay or pervert the Tuatha de Danaan, whom remained loyal to the All-Father.
| |
|
| |
| For his sin of speaking the truth, Neit was forged into a mighty sword, and cursed never to speak again. Cast down from Asgard amidst a plain of swords, Neit was taken up by a young Tuatha de Danaan King, Nuada, and used to slay the Formorian king, Bres the Beautiful. Since that time, Neit has slumbered, while his blade was wielded by heroes and tyrants alike.
| |
|
| |
| In the recent age, however, Neit has begun stirring. While unable to communicate directly with those who wield him, Neit is able to enact a form of possession, guiding them indirectly, firming their resolve, and directing them on a quest to break his Geasa, albeit with little success.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Adel O'Shainn is a Formorian princess. Sealed away by her father in a great vault beneath the earth to protect her virtue (Obsensibly to protect her from 'Milesian invaders'), she escaped through the buried Plane of Swords, a haunted battlefield, the site of the first battle between the Tuatha de Danaan and the Formorians. There, she found the sword Neit, which guided her through the harrowing journey, until she entered the lands of the Tuatha de Danaan and safety.
| |
|
| |
| Once there, she encountered the Tuatha de Danaan's war goddess, The Morrigan, whom relayed to her the history of the sword Neit, and of the plight of the Tuatha de Danaan people, exiled from the stars by a powerful Milesian blockade. Moved by The Morrigan's tale, Adel challenged the Milesian arbiter Amergin Glúingel for his deception- having divided the heavens and the earth, and 'gifting' the Tuatha de Denaan their planet, while forever banning them from the limitless heavens. Shamed by Adel's truth, Amergin stepped down as Arbiter, although not before lifting the ban on the Tuatha de Danaan people, in exchange for allowing the Milesians to settle part of the planet.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Adel went on to break the curse placed on Neit Truthspeaker, and obtained permission from a local moderator of the Axis Mundi to allow Neit's spirit to enter the afterlife. As part of this deal, Adel returned Neit's blade to the earth, unforging it in the fires of Mt Balor. His spirit free, Neit gave his blessing to Adel and her people, before departing from this plane forever.
| |
|
| |
| Now she travels with a large contingent of loyal Tuatha de Danaan, searching the stars for the scattered relics of her people, searching for the fallen warriors, the ancient artifacts, and the lost history of her race. Ultimately, she seeks to end the Fir Bolg threat once and for all, and thus lay the foundation for a reunification between the Formorians and the Tuatha de Danaan.
