Character Board: Islyn, the Goddess of Home and Family

@pixel-letters @theguildedtypewriter @madmaxxieslibrary @i-doled Here she is, the actual true sweetheart of the bunch! Seriously, she’s the nicest and would give everyone hugs if she could. She’s just precious. ((If anyone else would like to be tagged in anything, just let me know!))

Don’t misunderstand; I know my siblings have their faults. But that doesn’t lessen my feelings for them, nor will anything else. I have been fortunate, that our blood ties are so strong, and so lasting... but isn’t that what family is? A simple, unbreakable bond of the spirit?

That’s what matters. That true connection, unbreakable and strong, is what defines a family, not blood. And that connection... your family... no matter what, that is the most important thing of all. 

It’s like... the rules don’t apply to her.

Thearial shows up to take a dying child to his realm; Islyn’s reaction: “No.” And he turns around and leaves while the child makes a miraculous recovery.

Eiris “Everything in the sea belongs to me”. Islyn swoops in, snags a sailor off the sinking ship, “This one is the sole provider of his family, and he is going home.” AND EIRIS DOES NOTHING.

There’s a fruit in the god’s domain that grants immortality/essentially turns mortals into deities? So Korith says that is must be used wisely, and tests must be given to these “worthy” mortals, and Islyn’s just like... “This is Billy, he’s a mortal child I adopted and he’s going to help govern my temples. Oh, and here’s Patty, she’s a sweet girl, she’s helping me in my gardens forever and ever. And this is Spot, he’s a good boy, and now he’s my eternal good boy, who’s a good boy?”

Ooh, yes, I have those! Which is… slightly surprising as I tend to have grumps and tomboys and people who would not appreciate those things in my head.

Anyway, the biggest one is probably Gwendolyn; she spends a lot of time outside -like Scarlet- but Gwen loves open spaces and flowers and can take a bunch of wildflowers and make a flower crown in no time at all! It’s where she goes to find some quiet, to doodle a little -things she never lets anyone see- and just relax away from a very… overbearing family. And alone in a field, no one is there to care if she’s a witch; she can just relax.
