Physical Description

Identifying Characteristics

Emerald green eyes shot through with bronze possess an otherworldly depth and innately curious '10,000 yard gaze.' Softly tanned, unmarked skin is speckled with dark freckles across the bridge of her nose and shoulders. More often than not, ethereal inks are used to create mendhi like power rune systems across her body in order to increase and stabilize timelines. Waist length chestnut color hair is usually left free, but contains dozens of tiny braids throughout that hold trinkets, bells, ribbons and beads of all sorts and purpose.

Physical quirks

In almost a constant state of perpetual motion, Amserya is very rarely still in anyone's company. Whether its pacing, tapping her fingers against the closest surface, or flipping the pages of a book, time waits, nor stills... for just about anyone.

Special abilities

Omnichronal Perception: The user can see every event across all of the infinite timelines simultaneously. They know instantly when and how something happened or will happen regardless of what timeline an event occurred.   Temporal Presence: The user is present throughout time, they exist in the past, present and future at once, including alternate timelines. This ability allows them to be essentially anywhere and when they want to be as they exist in all points of time. They can gain boundless knowledge and know even the most arcane of secrets reality has to offer.   Dark Time Manipulation: User can create, shape and manipulate time of a darker, detrimental nature; that which damages, destroys, and consumes anything/everything they come across, representing the hazardous destructive side of nature, which in turn ignores most of the limitations and weaknesses of the normal time. Applications include: Unhealing, Damage Amplification, Age Acceleration, Infinite Time Looping.   White Time Manipulation: User can create, shape and manipulate time/temporal energy of beneficial nature; that which strengthens, enhances and causes anything/everything it comes across to flourish, representing the sustaining and preserving side of time/temporal energy. Applications include; Temporal Healing, Fertility Inducement, Flawless Healing, Purification, and Temporal Resurrection.   Time Frame Creation- User can create a universal time frame or time continuum, allowing them to decide how time flows/works for reality, including deciding how fast it goes, how long the minutes, days, weeks, months and years are.   Time Embodiment- Users become the embodiment of time. Users gain the power to control the timeline of all things whether to fast forward things or rewind them. The user can cause anything to rot, corrode, decay and turn to dust, or reverse things to the past to the point in which they have never existed. They can travel in time, and read, manipulate and remember past, present and future timelines/events.

Apparel & Accessories

Usually found in loose fitting harem pants and choli-style top, Ams style is anything befitting of a goddess, and somewhere more aligned with the mortals tied to the deserts of the world. Patterns and colors are plentiful in her wardrobe, with preference towards jewel tones and flowing fabrics. Constant accessories inclue the trinkets in her hair, a dozen thin metal rings containing opal like stones on her fingers, and the pendant around her neck that gives access to the Nexus; the fulcrum of all timeways.

Specialized Equipment

Archive Keys: A massive collection of keys in varying shapes and sizes that is rumored to unlock 'fixed' events in time.   Nexus Pendant: Capable of unlocking the private residence and Nexus of timeways below the Reliquary. Erebos and Odysseus are the only two with their own personal versions.   Epoch: Crafted of solidified time essence, Amserya's bow has never missed it's mark. Capable of firing multiple arrows, mythos speaks of it being able to launch arrows into the Past, Present and Future to devastating effect.   Tick & Tock: It's said the Goddess of Times whips are crafted from the hide of a dozen divine beasts that once roamed the universe, and tanned in the timeways themselves. The crack has been known to unravel entire timelines, rapidly accelerate aging, and even allow the victim to 'hear' time itself. However, it comes at the cost of losing ones mind to the inherent chaos of infinite timelines experienced all at once.

Employment

Principle Chronicler and Historian of the Reliquary Archives, a vast library that holds all of time and history inside the pages of a seemingly infinite number of books.

Failures & Embarrassments

The strenuous nature of controlling timeways comes at the price of Amserya having to submit to the mortal habit of sleeping, which is quite the embarrassment for her given the inherent weakness of such an act . While it isn't required on a nightly basis, she risks destabilization of herself and the Nexus if she doesn't rest for extended periods of time. This has catastrophic possibilities that could result in entire histories, pathways, and timelines being completely undone. The backlash of such events creates Antichronomic beasts that feed on the energy of destabilized time and grow more powerful to move onto other galaxies on their path of destruction.   As a result, Amserya has been known to sleep for extended (sometimes centuries) periods of time in order to maintain the neutral balance of herself, and the timelines. Only Erebos and Odysseus have the pendants required to entire the Nexus and the bedchamber that is situated over the fulcrum itself.
