Semideus/Siren RP Curses & Powers

[Azraeth]

First off, here's a lore teaser for the Semideus (demifae) and sirens: click. It should be noted that it's still being reviewed and updated, so there may be changes in the near future.

That said, David and I want to give people an opportunity to both flesh out Path lore and earn some free karma! For a limited time (I will run this until I have enough), I will be giving away 1 karma per original roleplay curse or roleplay power for the demifae and sirens. The only restrictions are that a power must not be a duplicate of an existing power or curse. I will update this thread as powers and curses are added, with credit to the original writer.

Please PM with this thread's title and your ideas as it will make it easier to keep track of them all. If I get similar ideas via PM, I will award karma to the first person who pmed me. Not all ideas are guaranteed to be used, as David and I have to make sure they make sense to canon and are fair/balanced against the other powers/curses.

A huge huge huge thank you in advance to anyone who participates.

Gently bumping this. I have so far only gotten a response from one person - I'm going to wait until I have enough to add them as a batch to maximize on time, then I'll add more personally.

Just letting you guys know. <3

Going to be adding the user submitted powers and curses now - though there has only been one person to submit any. I'll update this thread with the ones I add a little later.

For now, given the lack of interest, I'm going to close this offer out on May 31 at 11:55 PM EST. After which point I'll work on adding some that David and I come up with.

CURSES

Human Aversion: Although you're able to function adequately most of the time, you would prefer to only deal with your own kind and being around humans makes your skin crawl and may cause you to become violent.

Trayonetic Emnity: For whatever reason, you feel an intense desire to do harm to vampires the moment you are able to recognize them.

Technophobia: The longer you are near modern technology, the more violently anxious you become. Only by going outside and being part of the natural world, can you begin to calm.

POWERS

Treespeaker: Whenever you are near trees, you hear soft whispered songs which seem to come from their trunks, telling you the things they've 'witnessed' and what is happening in the forest. These songs are often obscure and difficult to decipher, like riddles. During winter, the voices grow much lighter, barely audible.

Windweaver: Your emotions seem to be tied to the elements. When you mourn, rains fall. When you are angry, thunder cracks and lightning strikes in the distance. When you are happy, the sky seems to clear. You have almost no control over this, though with years of training, you can cause deliberate minor changes in atmospheric conditions.

Touch of Purification: Coming into physical contact with almost any form of pollution causes it to slowly dissipate. You can clean befouled air by breathing it in or make water drinkable by running your fingers through it. You can even disinfect wounds by touching them

Call of Kin: (Usable only by Sirens) You can sense when other sirens you are blood related to are in distress or have been harmed. You may also feel this (to a much lesser extent) for any siren of your type (harpy, jorogumo, encantado).

Destructive Melody: (Usable only by Sirens) Your siren song is normally beautiful and alluring, but in the right circumstances, it turns into a deathly wail which is so loud that it can cause immense pain and disorientation. In the worst cases, it can cause bleeding from the ears and fainting. Roleplay only.

Pheromone Manipulation: You are able to modify the natural chemical substances you release into the environment (through scent, saliva, etc) which allows you to attract animals and humans closer naturally. This can be done for the sake of hunting, to find a mate, etc. Those under the influence of your pheromones find you deeply intriguing or alluring or appealing, seemingly for no reason. Vampires and classed humans are naturally more resistant to your charms, though not entirely.

CURSES

Sterile: (Only for Sirens) For whatever reason, you cannot produce young, you may be impotent, barren, or otherwise sterile in such a way that there is zero chance you will ever procreate, which makes you an unlikable pariah to other sirens.

Broken Song : (Only for Sirens) Something has happened (illness, curse or damage) that has broken your song. No longer is your voice alluring. Instead, it is broken and harsh. Though you can still manipulate and control other beings, it is significantly more difficult as your voice is now ugly and unappealing.

POWERS

Shifting Cloak: (Usable only by Sirens) Your natural form varies. When you shift, the type of spider, serpent, or bird which you resemble can change as you desire, though your core appearance and the ratio of 'animal' to 'human' do not change.

Beastspeaker's Blessing: You can gift a single animal with sentience, they are able to think about on par with a young human child, and can speak to you in a language only you understand. They will usually do what you ask, but given their cognitive limitations, they are not always 100% reliable. If you concentrate, you can see through their eyes or hear what they hear, though this takes practice.

Officially closing this and calling siren curses and powers done for now. David and I may re-open them in the future to add more if inspiration strikes though!
