Curses:
Aphrodite has the power to curse other individuals. Usually such a curse revolves around love, or beauty to such an extreme level it is negative to the individual cursed. An example of this is a man who fell in love with his own reflection until he died. She can remove her curse, but not other curses unless they are about those specific topics, as well as powerful magic in some situations. Sometimes a curse given by her can not be broken even by her though this is a rare occurrence. Every once in a while a curse becomes inevitable once it had been cast.
Energy Absorb:
Aphrodite has the power to take in, and manipulate large quantities of energy. This is usually faith energy given to her by her followers, but any energy in high enough amounts would do. Given human energy, such as electricity, does not produce enough energy as belief energy is much stronger. She uses that energy as listed below...
- Shape Change: She can change herself to look like anyone. She won't gain any abilities, or skills, but she will look and sound just like them. Though she is not restricted to humans, as she sometimes takes animal shapes such as a dolphin. She prefers he own form, but there is no limit to how long she can look like this as once changed there is no upkeep to the change.
- Teleportation: Aphrodite can also teleport herself to extreme ranges. Earth, Olympia, Space are all within her teleportation reach. She must know where she is going, and with magic can be blocked from entering this way, but range is not an issue.
- Invisibility: This just makes her unable to be seen with human eye-sight. There maybe other ways to detect her, but at will she can become invisible or not.
- Branding: This is Aphrodite putting her mark on someone or thing. Once on it she will know where it is no-matter the distance away. This can be removed by her, or like other things strong enough magic though she will know when it is removed if she did not do it herself.
- Water Scrying: As part of her connection to water she can use this energy to view distant areas through the surface of still water. Waves, and current will make it much harder, and can break the connection so usually she will use some container to hold the water. This can be blocked, or detected through the standard means but it can also be canceled at will.
Inhuman Good Looks:
In her base form Aphrodite's looks are down right magical. Lesser minded people will sometime immediately fall in love, and even those with the discipline to resist could feel the pull of her influence. She can't turn it off as it is just who she is, but if she is in the room then because of who she is it is most likely she is the truly the most lovely one there, as it takes a lot to compare with the beauty of Aphrodite herself.
Mental Powers:
Aphrodite has limited mental powers that she can use at will. Most abilities are local to around her, but in those cases where it isn't will be covered under the power itself below.
- Telepathy: This isn't reading another's mind, but the ability to her the thoughts of her followers, or people praying to her. The thought has to be to her for her to hear it, but there is no range to this ability.
- Telekinesis: Aphrodite can use her mind to lift objects, and even throw them in a basic fashion. While it is propelled slightly the power comes in lifting more then throwing. She can lift about three tons in this fashion.
Object Control:
Any object that has a mouth, or eyes can be manipulated by Aphrodite. This is a one way link so any damage done to them are not done to her. She can be banished out of such objects (For example, a bull or a bust of Zeus) as well blocked entry as one would normally block her entry. Listed below is how she can manipulate the object to interact with her surroundings.
- Imposition: Able to put her image on flat surfaces. For example a painting, which would change the painting to her image other then the one it was before. She can speak, and see through such things as clearly as if she were there though she isn't. As long as it is flat and she knows that surface is there she can appear usually using a scry to see it before she appears on some wall, or door. Even a flat surface that had nothing drawn on it will show her face, though would go back to being empty after she is done.
- Possession: She can also posses statues, and move them freely as if it were herself. They have the freedom of movement as per the statue allows, and the strength/durability is linked to the statue itself. For example a stone statue would lift, or take less damage then an iron one. Other then movement she gives no special properties to the statue itself.
Olympian Attribute:
As an Olympian Aphrodite has the attributes of an Olympian. These give her strength, speed, stamina, durability, and agility (and/or reflexes). What they are are listed below.
- Strength: The ability to lift, pull, or manipulate things physically.. She can lift around Twenty five tons.
- Speed: How fast one can move for her it is flight, land or water. She can move around sixty five miles per hour.
- Stamina: This is how long one can go for.. She can go for several days at full capacity without getting tired.
- Durability: The invulnerability given to her as an Olympian is on par with the others. Without using her weakness (Magic) she is unlikely to be damaged with human weapons. It would take Strength at least equal to hers to do any damage.
- Agility & Reflexes: Her agility is beyond human capacity, as well as the speed of her reaction to things around here. This would include balance, coordination, or as said earlier reaction time.
- Flight: She can fly at her normal speed and Agility at will. Flight to her is just a normal movement type and requires about as much exertion as walking. Her power is what gives her lift, and movement so things like wind, or no gravity would not effect this flight.
- Healing Factor: The body of an Olympian has a higher healing rate then a human. They still heal the same way in most cases, though Olympians do it much faster. This means things like scratches can heal almost instantly, but other things like deep cuts, broken bones or things that would take months for a human would just be hours for her. Though she can not heal a lose of limb, as that is her limit, she can return to Olympus for higher magic to do so.
- AllSpeak: Aphrodite can communicate in any language. Earth, Alien, all languages can be spoke by her unless someone specifically blocks a language from her with magic.
- Immortality: Aphrodite will never age since she has reached adulthood. This also effects her in giving her immunity to human poisons, diseases, and infections as he body will just 'heal' such things.
Power of Love:
This is her main sphere of influence and is always on in some degree even toned down to the lowest setting. This is portrayed through a few ways (Listed below) at will. Please keep in mind that there is a difference between love, and lust.. You love a family member, and she tries to spread that dedication other the physical connection. Keep in mind everything is bound to OOC permissions before anything else.
- Bring the Love: She can at will bring the feeling of love to people. This can be to others, themselves, or even an object like an idol. While she already brings the love to every single person she can it is so stretched out that without specific help it is up to that person to see it. Focused in she can cause the same effects on one person in a much higher scale even driving some people into Love-Slaves that will do whatever is asked from their loved one without question, or self-preservation. This is usually temporary, but the longer in effect the harder it is to break even with magic.
- Weapons of War: The power to turn mans weapons of war to peace is a weird one. Guns turning into roses, or swords into chocolate. Any weapon that is used against her has the chance of being turned into something else, and once changed is now that new item. This does not work on magical items, such as Mjolnir in any fashion.
- Enchantment: Much like bringing the Love, but when directed to only her. This power can work on Gods, or humans a like to make them view her as beauty, and love her above all others. This does include bending ones will to her way, but it is expressed through love of her. Even Poseidon would have a hard time breaking an enchantment of love that she had placed on someone.
Siren Physiology:
Aphrodite aspect of the siren gives her abilities though many forget about her Siren side. Though used as Siren back in her history it has given her specific Vocal powers. This effect those within hearing range, and can not work on the deaf. Those with higher hearing then others would be specifically effected maybe at further range as it is a sound based effect. Finally keep in mind it needs to be a sentient being, so things like robots may not be effected.
- Vocal Pathokinesis: This sound, also called the Sirens Song, can manipulate others emotions from hearing her voice. The emotions could vary as well as humans emotions do, and can be amplified or lowered at will. This effect would last only for about a half-hour after she stops. Once heard distance will not bring one to their senses, but time and magic could clear ones mind.
- Illusions: With her voice she can make others see illusions such as loved ones, or other such romantic ideas. This does not have to be romantic as she can make a father see his family as it is the love that is important not person. These are illusions, and will tell the person what Aphrodite wants them to say. Though it is much stronger, once someone realizes the illusion usually the will fall, as they are meant to manipulate, and trick not hold up to intensive investigation.
OOC Note: As with all things these are consent based if these are being used at you we have probably already talked about it, and if any the information gathered from it. ;)
