Post by Sigyn Iwaldidottir on Oct 5, 2015 21:13:03 GMT
You know what Sigyn needs? More of her family members visiting the realm of Midgard. She has a lot of sisters, if you wanna play an Asgardian, Say no more! Here's the long list of her family. They all have the standard Asgardian powers and each of them can have abilities relating to their purviews. All of them, with the exception of Hnossa and Gersemi, have the surname of Iwaldidottir. The other two have the surname of Odsdottir.
The order this is listed in is their ages relevant to each other. Sigyn is the third born, so she's right after Syn and before Sjofn.
OTHER NOTES: Everyone but Hnossa and Gersemi is part dwarf, which ups their stamina to a bit more than your average Asgardian/Aesir. Each of the sisters also has a talent for something within the metallurgy or jewelcrafting realm, since they were all raised by their father mostly. (It can be anything as small as knowing how to correctly identify gems, to enchanting weaponry, to being able to work in a smithy, though this is not set in stone either.) They all grew up in Myrkheim together and all of them know the art of enchanting and crafting of the metal Uru, due to their Dwarvish heritage.
NAME Pronunciations!
Lofn=Lau-fen
Hnossa=Hyn-Ohsa
Snotra=Snow-tra
Narvi and Vali can chose to either use Sigynson or Lokison as their surname.

Idunn
Goddess of Youth; The Eldest
Idunn is the first-born child of Frejya and Iwaldi and is the eldest of her sisters, despite her appearance at times. She can be bossy and overbearing, but has a good heart. Her job is to tend the tree of Yggdrasil and give the golden apples to the people of Asgard. She takes this very seriously and is proud, regal, and stubborn...like her mother. She is also very compassionate and cares for her family, taking a typical older sibling approach to her sisters. Idunn does not like Loki, presumably because at one point she was captured by a giant (because of him) but also rescued (because of him). Possible Play-bys could be: Siri Tollerod (Pictured), Doutzen Kroes, or Christina Mikkelsen.

Syn
Goddess of Truth and Justice; The Warrior
Syn is the second born child of Iwaldi, and probably among some of the best shield maidens and Valkyries, fighting along side her mother and sworn sisters. She is the only one of her sisters who desired to be a warrior, instead of learning how to be one out of necessity. She is more intense and often speaks before she thinks. She is the most like her father and uncles, and is as of yet the only Asgardian who can make the same style and quality of weaponry and armor that her father's people the dvergar (dwarves). She is close to her father and older sister, and probably a little over protective of all of her sisters, even if she does look before she leaps. Possible Play-bys could be: Weronika Rosati (Pictured), or Willa Holland.

Sjofn
Goddess of Self-Love and Harmony
Sjofn is probably one of the happier of Iwaldi's children; She is closest to Nanna. Sjofn does not concern herself much with the affairs of Asgardian government or problems, and is more carefree than her older sisters. She is more concerned with helping people and avoiding wars and problems, rather than facing them if she can. She is also closer to her mother than her father. Possible Play-bys could be: Alexandra Daddario (Pictured) or Elizaveta Golovanova.

Lofn
Goddess of Passion and Forbidden Love
Lofn is the most impulsive of her siblings, and is often the one to get into the most trouble, albeit unintentionally. She often means well, but her godly duties tend to reflect the most on her. She is very passionate, and gets herself involved in some large projects. However, she has a tendency to leave things unfinished, and flies on to the next project....or person. Lofn encourages people to follow their desires, especially in terms of romance, which can lead to bad consequences. She is also the only one of her sisters who can and will lie, and is one of the few that can be mislead to join the dark side. Possible Play-Bys: Natalia Podolskaya (Pictured), Susan Coffey, Anna Easteden, Holland Roden, or Courtney Halverson

Var
Goddess of Oaths; The Guardian, The Oathkeeper
Var is probably the quietest of her sisters; she doesn’t really stand out from the crowd. Yet, aside from Idunn, she was the peacekeeper among her siblings, and is often the one sent to deal with diplomatic issues that happen in Vanaheim by her mother. She is soft-spoken and sweet, but she detests people who do not keep their word at all. She has never liked Loki and in fact, downright hates him, because he is a liar and a cheat and all around a terrible person. She is closest to Nanna and Snotra of her sisters. Possible Play-Bys: Hilary Rhoda (Pictured), Evangeline Lilly, Angelika Kallio

Snotra
Goddess of Wisdom and Virtue
Snotra is the most pious of her sisters, at least for as much as the Asgardians have their own higher powers. She is the most respectful of her elders other than Idunn. She is almost as soft-spoken as Var is, and is very close to her. Snotra is often called out for having her head in the clouds, but she's a good person. She also helps Syn and the other warriors by boosting morale when it is needed; She does embody the Asgardian virtues, after all, and is the third best warrior in her family. Possible Play-Bys: Natalia Vodianova (Pictured), Ksenia Kahnovich, Emily Rudd

Nanna
Goddess of the Moon, Joy, and Peace. The Youngest
Nanna is the bright ray of light in Sigyn’s family. She is optimistc, hopeful and bounding with energy. She is the goddess of the moon, and is possibly one of the most powerful of her sisters, at least in terms of magical potential. Like Sigyn, Nanna gets visions into the future, but she is also one of the best seers in Asgard, next to Frigga anyway. Nanna is a perpetual glass half full type of person, and though there are dark signs on the horizon, she knows that Asgard will pull through, as sure as night and day. She is currently bethored to Baldr, God of the Sun. Possible Play-Bys: Elle Fanning (Pictured), Imogen Poots, Lindsay Ellington

Hnossa
Goddess of Sensuality and Infatuation
Hnossa takes after her mother, though less so in the warrior sense. She is often concerned with material goods, and has a rivalry with Lofn in terms of leaving behind a long line of broken hearts and moving on to the next man after the infatuation dies down. Hnossa is mostly concerned with maintaining her fabulous lifestyle, not unlike the many celebrities of Midgard. However, despite all of her less than stellar qualities, Hnossa is still an Asgardian at heart, and is willing to do what she can to ensure its survival. She also deeply cares for her younger sister, and she would rather not have any of her half-sisters be miserable. Possible Play-Bys: Kate Bock (Pictured), Kelly Brook, Julie McNiven

Gersemi
Goddess of Beauty
If there is any other rival to Freya’s beauty in Asgard aside from Frigga, it is her own daughter Gersemi. Gersemi is not just stunningly gorgeous in looks, but she is also a sweet and caring young woman, and is best friends with her half-sister Nanna. She often has to defend her older sister from rumors spread by jilted lovers; She admits that her older sister has her bad sides, but says that Hnossa is a really great person once you get to know her. Gersemi takes more after her father in personality rather than her mother. She isn’t a sorceress or a warrior but Gersemi will do what she can, even if it is not much. Gersemi has a string of suitors, considering her beauty, but she hasn’t yet chosen any of them to marry. Possible Play-Bys: Frida Gustavsson (Pictured), Darya Lebedeva

Narvi and Vali can chose to either use Sigynson or Lokison as their surname.
Narvi
The Older Twin
Narvi is the older of the twins, though both of them are very young by Asgardian standards, as neither of them are a millienia old yet. Narvi is the more serious of the brothers, and although he is a warrior, he is also the one that takes after their mother the most. He has dreams of becoming a renowned warrior and hero in his own right, much like his uncle Thor. Narvi has a distinct dislike for his father, and feels ashamed to be related to him. Seeing parts of his father’s personality in his twin brother is disturbing. He is often the voice of reason between the two of them, though this is after Vali has dragged him off on an adventure. Possible Play-Bys: Richard Madden (Pictured), Tyler Hoechlin

Vali
The Younger Twin
Vali is the younger twin, and he definitely takes after his father. In addition to the normal set of Asgardian powers, Vali has the ability to shapeshift, just like his father. He also has magical potential, though it is up to you whether or not he ever decided to learn any magic. He is the prankster of the two twins, and often gets himself into trouble. While he is sly and slippery, at the end of the day, no one is ever truly hurt by his pranks. He is closer to his father than his brother is, but he doesn’t think that what his father has done is right. This is not to say that Vali cannot be persuaded to be on his father’s side, though. While he doesn’t always get along with his brother, Vali can’t imagine a life with out him. Possible Play-Bys: Tyler Posey (Pictured), Joe Dempsie
