Distinguishing Characteristics
-
Friendly, sweet natured, chatty, sociable, curious, gossipy, naive, sometimes lazy; often speaks without thinking first, so might say out loud what's best kept private; dislikes conflict and aggression, so sometimes acts as a peacemaker among the gods; sometimes gullible; can be emotionally manipulative (e. g., using flattery) when she wants something, though this is never done maliciously; is Ra's favorite child (a "daddy's girl") and she knows this, taking advantage of it when she can; has grown up rather spoiled so is naive about the plight of others not as privileged as she is, but her ignorance isn't intentional, and she helps others when she can; as a cat goddess, is a skilled huntress, but prefers to be served, and regards her sisters Maftet's and especially Sakhmet's more primitive, bloody lifestyles with disdain--acts like a pampered housecat

Profile
DISCLAIMER: Please NOTE that some of my writing and character summaries feature ADULT/SENSITIVE THEMES, including but not limited to: violence, sexuality, adult language, bigotry, child abuse, rape, substance abuse, trauma, mental illness, illegal activity, suicide, "alternative" lifestyles, and the occult. Naturally, I will not post my more objectionable work here, though there will be references to the above in character profiles and in writing I might post to the site. I'll attempt to include the proper disclaimers when this occurs.
Character Summary: Coming soon! If you're really interested in reading it, let me know and I'll try to get on writing it faster!
