name : amora aesirdottir ━ age : ??? ━ birthplace : asgard ━ occupation : king's sorceress ( former ) / enchantress ━ pronouns : she/her
orphaned as a youth for unknown reasons, amora was scouted at a young age by karnilla, the queen of the norns and odin's royal sorceress, as being a girl of exceptional potential and urged odin to allow her to take the orphan amora on as her apprentice. prior to karnilla's apparent act of kindness and altruism, amora resided in an asgardian orphanage and lived several years in relative normalcy.
karnilla twisted this eventuality in her favour after a vision of amora's profound and chaotic potential struck her - she displaced amora's parents, turning them into trees in her nornwood and removed any memory of their existence ; such a thing was orchestrated at odin's behest, a way to try and harness the girl's potential so that it might be controlled through karnilla's tutelage.
through her studies, she was devoted to the allure of sorcery but displayed a willingness to use her other gifts, often seducing individuals in exchange for greater knowledge. seen as defiant and uncontrollable, amora was warned on several occasions that her nature would jeopardize her promised role as the royal sorceress once thor became king - despite these warnings, amora kept true to herself and gained unprecedented power.
odin and karnilla's bid to control amora's power inevitably fails. it is in their fear and inadequacy that they banish amora from asgard, hoping that this will remove amora's power and ultimately kill her but they were too late. already a powerful sorceress named the enchantress, amora finds a way to survive away from her homeland with her powers intact and thriving.
she is kept in the nothingness of exile for a time, stewing in her hatred for odin which only widens her thirst for supremacy. her need for power and the manipulation that it breeds is more than dominance and hides a deeper need that she believes only she can satisfy.
