ABILITIES/POWERS xx
••• VENOMOUS ENSNAREMENT ,, Venara possesses the ability to weave venomous spells and curses, poisoning the minds of her targets with her hypnotic gaze and beguiling voice. Through the entwining of enchantments fueled by her serpentine nature, she can ensnare the thoughts and emotions of others, casting a web of discord and emotional detachment that leaves her victims in a state of numbing apathy. Those affected find themselves lured into a trance-like state, succumbing to the chilling influence of her venomous spell, leaving them mentally ensnared and emotionally detached.
••• EMOTIONAL DETACHMENT ,, Venara's ability over emotional detachment allows her to induce a sense of numbness and disconnection in her targets' emotions. When under the influence of her enchantments, individuals may experience a profound apathy and a lack of emotional responsiveness. Their usual feelings and passions become muted, leaving them adrift in a state of detached indifference. This emotional detachment can cause those affected to experience a profound sense of inner coldness and isolation, as if their very hearts and spirits had been numbed by an unseen frost. They may find it challenging to connect with others on an emotional level, and their usual capacity for joy, empathy, and sorrow may become muted or obscured. In essence, Venara's ability over emotional detachment serves as a form of psychological manipulation, leaving her victims vulnerable to her influence and enhancing the discord and turmoil that she seeks to sow in their hearts and minds.
••• APORADRACON MIST ,, Venara has the ability to conjure a toxic, green-hued mist that embodies her entwining, venomous enchantments. This poisonous gas holds a hypnotic allure, entrancing those who inhale it and clouding their minds with discordant thoughts and detached emotions. The green smoke-like mist ensnares her targets in a web of confusion and emotional numbness, leaving them vulnerable to her hypnotic influence and venomous gaze. Those who are exposed find themselves falling deeper into a state of disorientation and detachment, making them susceptible to her manipulative capabilities and enhancing her dominance over discord and strife.
••• HYPNOTIC PRESENCE ,, Venara possesses a captivating and hypnotic presence, with the power to entrance and ensnare others with her gaze or voice. This ability intertwines with her control over serpents, allowing her to command and communicate with them, as easily as harnessing the hypnotic sway of her voice to exert influence over others.
••• DISCORDANT AURA ,, Venara can, if so desired, emanate a field of chaotic energy that brings unrest and disarray to her surroundings. This ability has been known to cause disorientation, confusion, and even temporary loss of control for targets within its range.
••• VENOMOUS TOUCH ,, Venara wields a venomous touch, capable of inducing a numbing sensation and a sense of emotional detachment in those affected. This venom mirrors the chilling influence of her father, Pompodis, while also symbolizing the discord and turmoil associated with her mother, Eris. A true product of her parentage combined. On a physical level, her touch can also inflict intense pain. If bitten, the venom persists over time, gradually amplifying the afflicted misery and sapping away their vitality.
••• SERPENT SUMMONING & MANIPULATION ,, Apart from being able to both communicate and manipulate snakes, the goddess can also summon her own. The snakes under Venara's command are enchanted creatures that embody discord and strife, serving as both protectors and extensions of her will.
••• ENCHANTED ICE SERPENTS ,, Venara has the ability to summon serpents made of enchanted ice, which possess venomous bites capable of inducing an intense, numbing cold in her victims. These icy serpents can slither effortlessly through her wintry domain, representing her influence over not only discord and strife, but also the chilling embrace of misery and despair. The venom of these enchanted ice serpents symbolize the pervasive effect of Venara's realm, spreading a sense of emotional numbness and isolation among those who fall under her influence. As a manifestation of her power, these serpents can serve as both guardians and embodiments of the goddess's discordant nature, adding a layer of mystique and danger to her presence.
••• GLACIAL SERPENT FORM ,, In times of heightened power or dire need, Venara has the ability to transform into a colossal serpent made of enchanted ice, embodying the entwining mesmerizing forces and venomous influence. The glacial serpent shimmers with an otherworldly, iridescent glow, its scales resembling crystalline facets that refract light in mesmerizing patterns. As it slithers through both wintry and lush green landscapes, it leaves a trail of frost and mist in its wake, captivating all who lay eyes upon it. The serpent's gaze holds an entrancing allure, capable of ensnaring the minds of those who meet its icy, hypnotic stare. In addition, its fangs drip with a numbing venom that induces physical freezing, and mentally, a sense of emotional detachment and disarray in its victims. With each sinuous movement, the serpent weaves through the air, leaving a haunting echo of discord and icy despair in its path.

WEAKNESSES xx
--------------
••• MUSIC & HARMONY ,, The soothing and harmonious power of music does bare the potential to disrupt Venara’s hypnotic abilities and thus weaken her influence, as it counteracts the discord and dissonance she embodies.
••• SUNLIGHT & WARMTH ,, Venara’s abilities are easier to weaken or neutralize when in the presence of intense sunlight and warmth, as these elements counter her association with ice, chilling influence, and emotional detachment.
••• TRUTH & CLARITY ,, Venara’s manipulative nature may be thwarted by the power of truth and clear, honest communication, which can dispel the confusion and disorientation sowed by her discordant enchantments.
••• EMPATHY & COMPASSION ,, The genuine emotional connections fostered by empathy and compassion can create a barrier against Venara’s abilities to induce emotional detachment, weakening her hold on those who embrace these positive emotions.
••• SERPENT ANTIDOTES ,, Certain ethereal antidotes or divine remedies associated with serpents and enchantments may be enough to counteract the effects of Venara’s serpent-based abilities, offering a potential defense against her venomous influence. (( — ADD MOROS CONCOCTION — ))

HISTORY xx
— The Psilloi — 1600s - 1848
— Carnival // Dancer — 1848 - ??
— Skotadi capture // Kynigos — ?? -
• MACHI • 1550 - 1844
• FIRST WAVE • SON OF POM
• DEITY OF BATTLES & ACID-LIKE TRANCES
• STATUS || machi was another member of psilloi that was known for his kindness. though not as soft as hormes and afelis, he was very gentle and tried to be the "peace maker" throughout the group. he had a knack for trying to calm everyone down when tensions rose, but often became a source of annoyance during those periods. he left in 1844 after a blow-out with cheirismos. his whereabouts are unknown.
• TRELO • 1601 - 1850, on & off after
• SECOND WAVE • SON OF POM
• DEITY OF BREAKDOWNS & ANARCHY
• STATUS || trelo was practically a carbon copy of his father, often butting heads with the titan and bucking up to him rather frequently. trelo had been a leader in his own sense in the group, having a portion of the "younger" members of psilloi that often clung to him and sought his advice as opposed to pompodis. he had infamously wrangled several of them: growing closest to cheirismos, dolos, and theikos during his time in the group. he left not longer after theikos' death in 1846, finding himself spiraling mentally and noting that his lack of control was directly related to the company he kept. he had a small period of total disappearance from the group-- approximately three years-- before he began returning on and off for periods of time. during his times back in the camp, he often grew close to the new members that had made themselves known.
