Niamh (NEE-av)

Neave Elsod

Niamh Elsod (a.k.a. Neave)

Hi, I'm Niamh, or Neave for short. Just a soul captivated by the vast Atlantic and the stories it whispers along the shoreline. A Capricorn by the stars and a dreamer by choice, I find my muse in the constellations and the rhythmic pulse of the ocean.
Picture this: red hair that's less about fiery legends and more a reflection of countless sunsets I've witnessed, each one reminding me we're all just a small part of an incredible universe. My attire? Think comfortable, functional, with a preference for the blues and greens you'd find on a calm sea day.
My passion is storytelling—real stories of real people and their lives shaped by the sea. In my hands, wood isn't just material; it's a canvas to carve those stories, giving them form and longevity. Folk music, with its deep roots and poignant melodies, connects me to a shared human heritage that spans across all cultures and times.
Relationships for me are about genuine connection. It's not about instant attraction but an evolving bond that grows with every shared interest and meaningful conversation. I'm drawn to the minds that light up with curiosity, to hearts that feel the pull of discovery, just like the gravitational dance between the moon and the sea.
I embrace my quirks—like a love for the stars and an interest in the physics that keeps our feet on the ground. I'm known for my calm demeanor, a trait that sometimes comes across as aloof, and for my contemplative nature that might be mistaken for indecision.
In the quiet hours, you'll find me gazing at the stars or walking the water’s edge, pondering our place in this vast cosmos. If you're someone who finds beauty in the tides' ebb and flow, in the silent music of the universe, then let’s talk. Let's share the wonder of the cosmos and the sea, and maybe find out where this terrestrial journey could take us.

Special abilities

• Hydrokinesis: Niamh has mastery over water, able to control and manipulate it in all its forms. She uses this power to aid in times of drought or flood, always careful to maintain the natural balance.

Inherent Divine Abilities

• Immortality: The gods are ageless and cannot die by conventional means. To maintain secrecy, they often live in hidden or shifting locations, or periodically assume new identities to avoid arousing suspicion over their unchanging appearance.
• Shapeshifting: Gods can change their form at will, allowing them to blend into different societies or environments. This power is used discreetly to avoid drawing attention, such as adopting the guise of different people over the ages or turning into animals in inconspicuous situations.
• Superhuman Strength: This power is used with caution, as overt displays can reveal their divine nature. When necessary, gods might disguise their strength as remarkable human feats, still within the realm of human possibility, or use their strength in situations where they are not observed.
• Self-Healing Powers: Gods can heal themselves from injuries instantly, but they do so in private to avoid revealing their divine nature. In situations where they are hurt in the presence of mortals, they might retreat to a hidden location to heal.
• Flight: When gods fly, they become invisible to ensure they are not seen by mortals. This power is often used for quick, undetected travel or to reach places inaccessible by other means.
• Dreams: Communication between gods is conducted through dreams to avoid physical meetings that could be witnessed. This method allows them to exchange information and make decisions without leaving any tangible evidence of their interaction.
• Divine Inspiration: Gods inspire mortals by planting thoughts or ideas in their minds, particularly in individuals who are already creatively or intellectually inclined. This inspiration is subtle, often perceived by the mortal as a sudden stroke of genius or an epiphany, without realizing the divine influence behind it.
