Name: Sappho Hiuchi
Age: 100 (physically 25)
Birthday: June 3
Gender: Female
Species: Goddess of Creative Passion
Category: Supporting Character
Career: Jazz Singer/Voice Actor

Appearance Description:


Sappho is a notably tall woman, standing at 6', but she does not look anything more than human. She has a pretty average, softly feminine, slightly curvy build. Her eyes are grey, and her hair, which is usually done up in a ponytail, is naturally brown, but usually dyed in different shades. Tanktops and jeans are Sappho's usual outfits of choice, but she does dress up on occasion, and she experiments with various adornments, such as makeup, facial piercings, and temporary tattoos (because real ones would just heal). Her accent is a mix of French and Greek, though it has faded slightly.

Personality Description: A passionate and creative artist - though Sappho is a liberated, wild woman, she is loving, loyal, and kind as well. A performer at heart, the goddess definitely enjoys pushing boundaries, seeing art as an inspirational method of positive social change as well as entertainment. However, as much as she enjoys partying, new experiences, and even some rebellious social activism, she is no anarchist and doesn't break rules just for the sake of it. For Sappho, her family will always come first. Her open friendliness might make her seem flirty to some, but she is undeniably in love with her husband. As a mother, she has a tendency to be sometimes too lenient and friendly, or a little more like an older sister, but she is certainly not neglectful, and she tries to be a good mom.

Species Abilities:
Immortal. Ageless. Rapid regeneration - could heal cuts in seconds or regrow limbs in a day. Resurrection within a day to a week, but at a random liveable (ie not underwater/in a wall) location somewhere on earth, at least 1000 miles (farther the shorter time it takes) from where she died. Any clothes she was wearing/things carried remain where she died.

No noteable strength or speed, but top athlete's agility. Immune to poison/disease. Healing magic stops her regeneration as long as it's active. If she drinks a healing potion it will make her seriously ill and unable to regenerate until she can throw it up. Can be permanently killed by weapons/magic meant to kill gods.

Like a Drug - Their blood, saliva, tears, and sweat produce a drug-like effect similar to ecstasy when injested. Not physically addictive, but potentially psychologically so. Takes effect almost immediately, but only lasts about 45 minutes. Needs a small amount for effects to work, but drinking more does not increase effects. 30 minute cool down time after effects end before the same person can be affected again. Must be taken directly from her, loses effects within a minute of being exposed to air/removed from her body, if not injested. Does not effect non-biological beings such as robots and golems. Causes: Mild euphoria, feelings of closeness with others, calming, enhanced sensation, perception, and sexuality. Mild confusion, blurred vision, sweating, and rapid heartbeat. Does not bypass poison resistance or magic resistance. Has little noticeable effect on themself, about 1/4 as strong.

Twin amplification - When performing with her twin, both their voices are amplified like they're using microphones.

Draws the attention, both positive and negative, of nearby drunk or otherwise intoxicated people to herself, though they are not necessarily attracted to her.

Attraction Aura revenge - anyone with an attraction aura that affects her, would feel the same attraction to her, if they are at all attracted to females/feminine people. Only in effect while it is affecting her.

Voluntary Liberating Aura - Affects any sentient being within 15' who chooses to allow it, otherwise just produces a barely noticeable tingling sensation. Within the aura people can stop being affected or accept the effects at any time, simply by thought, with no consequences. Lowers inhibitions. When performing with twin extended to 25' and also enhances creativity in naturally creative people.

Grape Harvest - Can grow grapes from her body. One grape is equivalent in effect to a wine glass of wine. She can produce 24 grapes a day, but as they are not actually alcoholic, can't use them as food.

Sensitive to chaos magic and auras that increase discord or argument. She is aware of their effect, but can't resist. Also can't resist inhibition lowering and emotion intensifying auras.

Gets tipsy within 5' of any alcohol. Alcohol resistance - needs to drink 2x as much as an average human female to feel same effects, won't get a hangover or die of alcohol poisoning. Actually needs to drink alcohol to survive, although it can be obtained from fermented fruit as well. Can die of starvation.

Biography:
One of a pair of identical twins born fully grown 100 years ago in Greece to a somewhat unlikely pair of Greek gods, Sappho never had much of a family. Eris, their mother, didn't stick around, but their father, Dionysus, was a bit more helpful with getting his daughters situated and started off in the human world. Though the twins kept in touch, Sappho's sister didn't stay with them long, heading off to North America within 2 years of their birth, while Sappho elected to remain with her father in Europe. It didn't take long for her to part ways with him, and she spent most of the 20s in France, then travelled around Europe as a jazz singer.

About 50 years ago, Sappho met and fell in love with Asusuke Hiuchi when he travelled to Europe, then married him a few years later. Her twin came to visit before they got too settled and convinced them to come to California with her.

In California, Sappho broke into voice acting while husband was studying. She was never exactly famous, mostly working on independent productions and sticking to her singing as a career, but she did have a decent amount of fans. Sappho and her husband had been trying to have a child for many years when they finally had Euphoria. (Something about the combination of her and her husband's natures made forming a child difficult.) But Euphoria was too difficult to raise as a human, so another suggestion from her sister brought their family to Manta Carlos. She looks forward to the new experience and reuniting with her twin.

Additional Information:
Child of Eris/Dionysus
Wife of Asusuke Hiuchi
Mother of Euphoria Hiuchi
Identical twin to Ambri Dio
Languages: Greek, French, English, basic Japanese.
