Character Name: Ariadne
Ghost Name: cursed + damned
Age: 20
Sex: Female
Height: 5'5"
Abilities: Well she is totally cursed here. Her abilities are a result of Anubis deciding to use her as a conduit to spy on the Olympian Gods. He is able to see and hear through her at will and it is extremely painful for the girl being she is only mortal. It takes its toll on her both physically and mentally and she is often ill. Also the curse involves an inner compulsion to be in the vicinity of Gods when they are earthbound. When Anubis needs to, he can cause her to "see" and "hear" the great beyond where the Gods reside and that is even worse. The impact to her mind prevents her from understanding what she is seeing and hearing. Ariadne does not yet understand what Anubis is doing to her exactly, all she knows is that he is causing her pain. Sometimes she can hear him in her head whispering. When she dies, she probably won't go to the Elysian Fields, she will go to Anubis in his underworld.
History: Ariadne was born to a couple of explorers who often made money returning various artifacts to their rightful owners. They had a love of life and wanted to learn everything they could about various cultures. So they travelled the known world. When Ariadne was born, her parents had to slow down to take the time to raise their daughter and be more grounded and responsible. Things were good, she had a stable homelife and learned about healing through herbs and about worlds that awaited her outside the village.
When she was old enough, her parents took her along to a trip to Egypt to explore the tombs built there and it was very exciting. The people here believed in different Gods and had a whole different outlook on things. This was to be their last trip. What happened here changed Ariadne forever. They were exploring a crypt that was apparently cursed, the locals warned them not to go, but her parents' curiousity and need to learn was too great. Besides, there was an artifact to be seen. Of course, they removed it from its rightful place and that angered the God Anubis. There was no warning this was ill advised. The God normally would have made them all die grisly deaths but instead, he cursed their child without them knowing it seeing that a war was coming with the Olympians. What an opportunity! Greeks visited THIS tomb and at THIS time...Anubis was pleased.
The curse changed Ariadne. She became a drinker and drug user to stop the agony caused by the God and maybe even to block him out of her. The only reason she has not killed herself is because her parents still live and she is afraid to. Anubis would get her for sure. Her parents know this must have started in that tomb, but they aren't sure what is going on. So...people think she is a lunatic or a drunk and don't believe anything she says. It was only recently she realized it was Anubis hurting her. What will happen when the Gods of Olympus find out?
