Dorapan

(a.k.a. Panda)

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Dorapan is a halfway amalgamated ethereal being. She is shaped like a starfish whose five appendages feel lightly around Eusebia to anchor itself and as a protective measure.   The initial start is composed of the darker Mycenaeans who represent the meat of Dorapan. Then, the lighter coloured Agorans started to become incorporated and materialize as connective webbing between the arms and further moving towards the extremities in layers.

Special abilities

Gravity Manipulation

Dorapan has gravity projection powers along the many warts on her tentacled limbs. Every warts has a singular sucken pit, which it is thought, she might divert ranged attacks or distantly crush belligerents.   Through its ambivalent mechanism, it is thought that Dorapan is able to use some combination of dignitas and mitial to achieve this effect to an unusual degree.

Apparel & Accessories

Metal Bands

She possesses five arms accompanied with long ribboned bands that spiral in segments halfway up her tentacles. She wears a golden ring at her center with short, black sleeves that slide under each of her bands. A long black and gold skirt radiates from her center mass like the rays of a sun, and five golden helms with crests of fire crown the end tips of her arms.

Mental characteristics

Employment

Asphodel Leader

Dorapan mostly acts as an inspirational figure head for her people. When times are untroubled, the nitty-gritty of managing Asphodel falls to her council.   However, during times of crisis, she takes on a despotic role to galvanize all resources to the state's defense.

Hi there! You may not know me, but I am the sponsor of the Great Leader of Their People Summer Camp Prompt this year! Since you wrote this article, I would like to know, would you mind me reading it aloud on my Twitch channel this week? I have a lot to get through so it helps to do it live while people watch. I've scheduled to go live at 8am and 8pm Eastern Time every weekday. If you join and comment, I can go over your article right then and there! If you'd like to coordinate a specific date, let me know. If you aren't able to make it (or don't want to be present live), you can also always watch streams after the fact on my YouTube channel   BUT, if the answer is NO because you'd rather I not, it's okay! Not agreeing to be streamed definitely does not put you at any disadvantage for winning in my eyes. Please respond swiftly by replying here (make sure to click REPLY under my comment or I won't be notified), message me on my World Anvil profile page, Discord, or anywhere else you find me online.   Thanks again! Whatever you choose, God bless and much success! <3

That would be fine, though I can't say I'd be able to comment on your stream. Do let me know which date you would be reading.
