Where does your character live: Shy lives in a world where religion is very strong and a proven fact. The Immortals gain or lose power by how many worshipers they have and so they will help mortals to strengthen or keep their numbers high. There is a variety of Immortals, gods and goddesses of everything imaginable, dreams, luck, cleaning, potted plants, ect. There are two major Immortals called the Father and Mother. The Father is a being of light and the Mother is a being of shadow, they are harmonious and balance one another out. All the other immortals are their children.

Notable merits and flaws: Shy takes her duty very seriously but it can weight on her at times.

Family history: Shy’s mother was the original Voice to the Immortals but because she recalled every live she grew weary and lonely. She fell in love with a creature that the Immortals made on a whim and then discarded as a monster. When she turned away from her duties to be with him the Mother struck her and her mate down for being disobedient. The Father pitied them however and allowed them remain in the land of the dead together rather than forcing Shy’s mother to reincarnate again. Shy grew into her mothers role and the Mother decided that in order to prevent her from her mother’s choices she took part of Shy’s soul and made her a mate. In every life Shy meets her mate and lives out a happy existence with them. Their gender and looks often change completely however they are always given the name Dai. The name however is common as people are encouraged to use the name if it ever crosses their mind during pregnancy. In fact it is one of the most common names. However Shy can always recognize her mate upon meeting.

When Dai is male he and Shy will often have children. The children are considered blessed by the Immortals and have taken leadership roles in various countries. Throughout the centuries it has happened often enough that Shy and Dai have sired the majority of the world leaders bloodlines.
