Name: Marissa
Age: N/A
Gender: Female
Race: Supernatural Being
Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Power Level: N/A - Not Legal for PvP
Timeline: N/A
Appearance: A tall young woman of roughly 5' 11" with blue-white hair. Her musculature is firm, but her skin and hands are soft. Her golden eyes are like suns and make those under their gaze either feel comforted by their warmth or in danger of their fire. Her divine clothing, like all the goddesses, is a draping, pure white gown that hangs from her shoulders, loosely bound to form by pure blue sashes and golden bands. When she appears in a less apparent situation, her clothes are typically black or tan slacks, a white blouse and a dress jacket.
Personality: Caring and fair sums Marissa up succinctly. In all of her dealings, she seeks not just the most just outcome, but also the fairest to the most people. No matter what the required action is, she'll take it without hesitation. This even led to her stepping down from the pantheon at one point, but she returned when the remaining goddesses fell into harm's way, and for their benefit, has not gone out of touch so readily again.
She is said to keep a pet eagle at her side as her closest animal companion.
History: The origins of the Eight Goddesses can be found in far more ancient references to Eight Sisters. These Eight Sisters were given Life at the same time as the creation of Life, itself. Each represents a greater whole and is charged with its maintenance. The term, charged, is not used because some greater being assigned them the task, but because they have no choice in the matter. Their very beings drive them to do so. The Goddess of Joy could not spread depression or the Goddess of Justice cruelty any more than the sun could go backwards through the sky. So it has been since the universe breathed its first breath, and so it shall continue until it breathes its last.
Powers: Goddess Power - There is no limit to what she can do so long as it does not violate her domain.
Equipment: None
Weakness: She cannot act against her domain, no matter what.
