Character
Name: Saga Thanatos Gender: Female Age: 25 Wing Color: Black Physical Appearance (Here you can either link us to a picture or provide descriptive text): Played by: Kate Nash
Has quarter sleeve tattoos on her arms. One arm having poppies and the other one having a swallow-tailed butterfly.
History: Saga was born under either a very unlucky star or an extremely lucky star. She was born to an upper-middle class family with a mom, a dad and her elder brother, Tobias. Well, when she was six she and her parents were in a terrible car accident that kill her parents but she didn't even have a scratch on her. So she and Tobias went to live with her Upper-Class Grand-Aunt in the North-East. There she went to school, made friends and seemed to keep on having her bad/good luck of bad things happening to everyone around her and not to her directly. When she was 10, she finally met a girl who seemed immune to her bad luck named Luka Prince. Luka lived with her three elder siblings, oddly named Red (a War fanatic), White (a lawyer who seems to either like doing charity cases or defending the evilest jerks ever) and Black (works at food banks) who were looking for their missing sibling named 'Pale'. Saga was eventually drawn into Luka's life and she seemed to play the role of 'class mate number 3' for the other girl, getting to catch glimpses of her friend's extraordinary life and trying to help Luka find her lost sibling. When she was 17 her Aunt passed on and she and her brother decided to start up a tattoo parlor with the money they inherited, while their cousin got the house they grew up in.
Saga enjoyed living her over all boring/normal life (except of course when she was somehow caught up to be a side character in Luka's adventures). Until one day a man named Ehsas revealed something to Saga and why she should stop trying to help Luka find 'Pale' even if it is just being emotional support. Luka was the human avatar for Fate and her siblings were in fact three of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. ('And really, judging by their names you should have figured something was weird about them!') which deeply disturbed Saga because she thought Luka would tell her something like that. When she decided to confront Luka; Luka lied to her about it even though soon Saga found out the truth from White. Due to her friend lying to her, she decided to stand up for herself for once and told Luka if she couldn't be honest with her she wasn't going to stay around and with that she left her friend, more upset with herself because she felt like she was being a shameless jerk over her friend not telling her these things.
Ehsas was pleased with this because it was going JUST AS PLANNED. He wanted Luka to be shaken up and feeling alienated from humanity so she would stop paying attention to her job as Fate so he could take his own destiny into his hands. One of those was finding Pale. Pale was the final horseman- Death itself. It turned out that Pale is supposed to live a normal human life, born, live, die and be reborn. Simply so the idea of being Death won't ever over power their mind and make them want to end everything quicker so 'Death' no longer has the negative title that all have associated with it. Death's true duty, when it all comes down to it is just to exist until the time comes for the current human avatar of Death to pick up the great sword and help end the world as we know it. So, Ehsas one day walked up to Saga while she was buying some doughnuts and whispered something into her ear.
'When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!" I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.' Something Saga never heard before because Fate set it up so no version of Death could ever hear it. Thats when something snapped inside of the girl, she remembered who she was. She was the Pale Horseman, she was Luka's missing sibling. She was the one that was feared by most even though people like to sit around and talk about 'Dances with Death' and remembering that everything dies.
And at that moment, Luka felt everything she had set up being torn down. People suddenly started to die recklessly. Suicides, murders, illnesses, as if suddenly everyone had the great idea to drop dead. So she went to find Saga while Red, White and Black went to go find the one who found out Saga was Pale. Luka found Saga in a park, sitting on a swing. She walked up to Saga and for once told her the whole truth. She always knew that Saga was one of Pale's lives and the only reason she always said she was looking for Pale was to protect Saga and made sure she never knew she was Death, she did it all to keep suspicions off of Saga. Red knew it, White, Red and Black all knew it also and they all wanted to make sure the world didn't end just yet so they kept on playing along and did their best to make sure that if someone ever figured out who Saga was to eliminate them and any evidence of the truth. If this were an anime or a comic book, Pale would have smiled at finally being told the truth and once more allowed Saga to be fully herself. Sadly life doesn't work like that and Luka knew it, so she was ready to wipe Saga's mind fully of the events of meeting Ehsas and finding out what she was.
And Luka decided to do something new in that park also as Saga wondered how she got there with a bag of doughnuts. Luka smiled and decided to tell the truth about herself and Red, White and Black. Saga wondered why her friend never told her this before and accepted it ('After all, it kind of makes sense considering your names and how you all seem to get into those odd adventures. But then why would you want to find Pale if you don't want to end the world?'
'So no one can tell Pale who she is and thus cause a lot of trouble.'
'Ah, Okay.')
So now Saga is currently living her life as a tattoo artist and listening to Luka tell her about her hunt for Pale and other misadventures, living a boring yet comfortable life- sans the memories of being the final horseman of the Apocalypse.
Personality: Saga is insecure and shy. She tries her best to be polite like she was raised to be and often feels like she fails when it comes to it thus making her always want to backtrack everything she said (which she often does). Once she is made to start talking, instead of saying anything of value she more often than not ends up rambling on endlessly about nothing and everything. She is a kind person, mostly harmless (the mostly is only added because she is a tattoo artist and she could always mess up your skin somehow.) She is easily pushed around and tries to make everyone happy because she honestly can't handle being in high-stress situations because her mind will go blank and she would end up doing something stupid.
Strengths: Saga can run fast (just a bit faster than that of an average human female), mostly because she is a coward. She is artistic only when it comes to tattoos. She is polite and mostly harmless, due to this people seem to trust her. She is level headed when it comes to most situations (that she is not directly involved in) and can usually offer advice if she doesn't end up tripping over her own tongue. Animals seem to like her (due to The Pale Horseman's dominion over the wild animals) and due to her true self being 'death' she has a slight otherworldly connection and because of that she can understand/accept/figure out mysical/supernatural things almost instantly unless it is purposely being hidden from her in particular.
Weaknesses: She is 99 percent average. It seems like she was born to fade away into the crowd, she isn't too strong, she isn't super smart, she is a bit naive. She is a coward. She is painfully shy and flakes a lot. If someone has seen someone die/died themselves they will almost instantly know she is Death/the Pale Horseman (but not the Grim Reaper. In her world the Grim Reaper=/=Death) and they will know they shouldn't talk about it (but really nothing is stopping them). When something is her problem, she breaks down like she was made of paper mache.
Samples (ALL samples must be set in Luceti-verse.)
First Person: Wings. Tiny little wings were sticking out of my back. Out of everything that I could possibly think stuck in this new world I have been kidnapped to this new world, the first thing that crossed my mind was 'I hope I don't get wing mites.' I shivered at the idea of little bugs crawling into my feathers. A frown form on my face as it sunk in slightly. I had wings. I felt my heart beat speed up and suddenly my thoughts started to cloud up. My tongue felt much larger than what it should be as I opened my mouth as I looked around.
Trees to the left, trees to the right. My eyes started to grow misty. I would not cry! I am not a little girl. I must be dead. Oh God, I died in my sleep didn't I? Who would call Toby and tell him I wouldn't be able to make it to work today? Luka! I wouldn't be able to go see the new 'Barry Trotter' movie with her and go have boba tea and visit the candy store at the mall! I was crying now. I didn't want to be dead! I must be dead and I ended up someplace where I was alone with a bunch of trees. It must be my fault because I didn't go to the doctor like Toby told me to and they were not able to catch some underlining illness and now I died and Toby will have to find someone else to help with the shop and he would have to pay for a funeral and he won't ever become an uncle like he always wanted and it was all my fault! I was now crying loudly, at least form how the birds seemed to fly away in a bothered fashion.
Third Person: There was a woman crying in the woods. Her hands were pulled up to her face as she was apologizing to no one in particular, the tiny pale green wings hanging limply from her back as if embarrassed to be attached to the redhead. She looked up from her crying fit and fouced upwards. "I-I don't want to be dead. Not that there is anything that is wrong with dying eventually because after all everything has to die but I don't want to die just yet." Saga was speaking in a rushed voice as if she needed to explain everything and from the looks of it she was going to counter act everything she said anyways. It tooka few minutes for her to get herself under control as she tried to put on a serious expression. More so in the hopes that doing this would allow her to become more serious. She didn't feel any better so she carefully took a step forward as she fought back more tears.
She buried her fingers into the soft white of the sundress she was in-at least that was a positive. She liked dresses so maybe this death thing wasn't going to be so bad as long as she could get out of the woods. Then she froze as an idea fluttered across her mind. She was in some woods. "I didn't kill myself! Why would I be in the forest of suicides?!" But then again this place was much too peaceful to be that, and there were no people hanging from the trees either but that would have required common sense for her to figure out and at the moment she wouldn't be able to pour water from a boot with the instructions written on the heel. "Oh god, is it because I didn't go to the Doctor and I must have died in my sleep and that counts as a suicide?" she felt herself get a little bit sick as she started to ponder her predicament and how she was dead but being dead felt a lot like being alive except for having wings and a nice white sun dress.
