Shannon, Goddess of the Moon (SHANN-uhn)

Lady Shannon , Goddess of the Moon

Shannon is the Goddess of the Moon (and all moons), and is one of the minor deities of the universe.

Divine Domains

Moon(s), insanity, tidal forces, agriculture

Artifacts

Shannon's poleaxe/staff, Khonsu, is her weapon of choice.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Shannon is fairly short and slim, resulting in her not having much presence to other people.

Special abilities

  • Godly Condition: Minor or not, Shannon is still a goddess. As such, she is afforded the same natural boosts as all of the gods:
    • Divine Form: Like all of the gods, Shannon can gather all of her essence in one place, and shift into her true form. This form is unknown by anyone other than the gods, as well as immortal races such as angels and devils; upon seeing it, an individual would disintegrate into nothing but ash.
    • Godly Detection/Perception: Shannon can sense both life force and magic, regardless of cloaking, illusion, or any other means that would render the user invisible or untraceable. The only individual she and the other gods cannot detect is Eris.
    • Godly Magic: The only one more powerful than Shannon in terms of magical power and ability is Eris.
    • Godly Reflexes: Shannon's reflexes are impossible to outpace. Only Eris is faster.
    • Godly Regeneration: Shannon's natural regeneration of injuries and wounds is much faster than that of any race, allowing her to heal even near-mortal wounds within seconds.
    • Godly Senses: Shannon's senses are among the best in the universe. This includes better sight, better sense of hearing, taste, smell, and touch.
    • Godly Speed: Shannon's speed is impossible to match. Only Eris is faster than her.
    • Godly Stamina: Shannon's stamina is nearly unlimited. Only Eris can outlast her.
    • Godly Strength: There is nearly no upper limit to the feats of strength Shannon can perform. Only Eris is stronger.
    • Ichor Properties: Rather than blood, Shannon posesses ichor, a golden fluid and the blood of the gods.
    • Immortality: While Shannon can be wounded, she can never truly die, and will resurrect even if her body is utterly destroyed.
    • Multipresence: Shannon has the ability to be in multiple places at once, doing many different tasks at the same time.
    • Omnilingualism: As a goddess, Shannon can inherently speak and comprehend all languages, even code languages.
    • Teleportation, Type VI: Shannon can teleport almost anywhere, covering lightyear distances on a cosmic scale. She can take mass up to the size of a skyscraper with her when teleporting.
  • Lunamancy: Shannon is a lunamancer, a rare type of magician that specializes in lunar-based magic. She is also the most proficient lunamancer to ever exist. Her abilities include, but are not limited to:
    • Insanity/Lunacy Inducement: Shannon possesses the ability to induce madness in people, both temporarily and permanently. She can control the traits of the insanity she induces, making the person more violent, more carefree, or delusional and nonsensical. What type of madness is induced is entirely up to her.
    • Lunar Attacks/Lunar Energy Manipulation: Shannon can use moonlight and lunar energy to attack, defend, and heal.
    • Lunaportation: Shannon has the ability to appear wherever there is moonlight, as well as the ability to teleport instantaneously to any moon in the universe.
    • Lunar Constructs: Shannon is capable of making things out of "solid" moonlight, such as weapons, armor, appendages, living creatures/guardians, and barriers. She also can create duplicates of herself using moonlight, each duplicate seeming as real as their maker.
    • Lunar Empowerment: Shannon grows stronger wherever there is moonlight.
    • Lunar Energy Mimicry: Shannon has the ability to turn herself into pure moonlight for an unlimited amount of time.
    • Lunar Flight/Surfing: Shannon can fly using lunar energy.
    • Lunar Regeneration: Shannon's regenerative abilities are enhanced when in the presence of moonlight.

Apparel & Accessories

Shannon commonly wears a black, collar-length dress with light grey star shapes on it, as well as a pair of white socks and black "mary jane" shoes. She wears black, square, half-rimmed glasses.

Specialized Equipment

Shannon's staff/pike, Khonsu, is an unusual weapon. It is a polearm/poleaxe that has a large, golden, crescent blade. There is no top to the polearm, no spike of any kind; the blade simply sits bare at the end of the shaft. The curved edge of the blade faces outward, with the points facing Shannon when she wields it. It doubles as the staff she uses when performing magic.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Shannon was created by Eris at the beginning of the universe. Shannon did not intervene at first, as Evelyn and Erebos volunteered to be the first ones to create life in the universe. After Evelyn and Erebos went to war due to different views between their children, Shannon was one of the ones that watched on in worry for her siblings. When the Light-Dark War ended, Shannon was asked, along with the other gods, to continue making the universe. Shannon had a very minor role in the universe's genesis, but she still views it as an important one; she created all the moons of every planet in the universe.   After all was said and done, Shannon was one of the gods that wished to return to the Realm of the Gods, seeing her work completed. However, Eris refused to follow, declaring that he would remain in the mortal world to meddle around and observe as he saw fit. Shannon, among the other gods, tried to convince Eris that leaving the world to grow on its own was the best choice, but he refused to heed their words, and as a result, Shannon and the other gods had no choice but to take up arms against Eris.   The War of the Gods is often colloquially called the "Ten-Minute War", due to the speed and fury with which the other gods were beaten by Eris, Shannon included. As with his intervention in the Light-Dark war, he was merciless and brutal in his retaliation, and it is said that after the war was over, Eris was nearly bent on erasing the universe, along with the other gods, deeming it a failure, thanks to both the Light-Dark war and the Ten-Minute war. However, he hesitated, as he cared for his new family, and Shannon, along with the other gods, begged him to reconsider. Emotionally spent, Eris acquiesced, and a treaty between the gods was formed, stating that, excepting any major existential threat to their creation, Eris was not to interfere. However, he could remain in the world of mortals to observe.   Shannon has rarely been seen in the realm of mortals since.

Morality & Philosophy

Shannon, while trying her best to to appear professional and act as a proper goddess should, is actually quite airheaded and tends to be lost in her own world more often than not.

That said, she has a good heart and is very kind, even if she doesn't usually have any answers to someone's problems.

Shannon and Thetos were created together by Eris at the beginning of reality. Although Thetos and Shannon like each other, Thetos often ends up unintentionally intimidating Shannon, much to his dismay. Shannon finds it hard to tell what Thetos is thinking or what his mood is like, since he lacks facial features, and so has to guess from his tone of voice and body language what his current mood is. Both wish there was a better way to get across their intentions.

Silas thinks Shannon is worthless and unreliable in everything she does, and has no trouble telling her this to her face, which causes some of the other gods to step in and defend Shannon, knowing her self-esteem is somewhat low.
