Personality
Freya is an independent woman that's full of fire and has a bit of a short temper, even though one wouldn't immediately think so with her delicate looks. She's very warm and affectionate towards loved ones, often teasing or rough-housing with them a bit as her way of showing affection. She's fiercely loyal and devoted to the people she loves and does everything she can to help and keep them safe. She has a natural magnetism that draws people in and and has a kind of charm that makes people want to stay around her. She always leaves a big impression on others and always sticks out in a room, be it for a good or bad reason. She's confident and always looks to the future for new possibilities. She does tend to hold onto grudges and is slow to forgive or unable to forgive at all depending on the reason for the grudge. If she does ever forgive someone, she tends to treat them more warmly than she used to, as she usually treats people who get on her nerves with thinly-veiled hostility unless they're in a formal setting, then she'll likely be fairly passive-aggressive and petty. Even if she doesn't like someone, that doesn't mean she wants the absolute worst for them, and if they're ever in need of help she'll help them... albeit a bit begrudgingly. She has a lot of energy that she often gets out through various recreational activities, namely through boxing and swimming. Freya knows when to settle down and get serious when the situation calls for it. She can take command of any room in an instant and is nigh-impossible to be intimidated, as she's the one that often does the intimidating. Her voice can be quite loud and she often needs to be reminded to tone it down and use her "inside voice," though she only listens to those she knows really well or authority figures (though she may get sassy if they tell her to do so with an "attitude"). She's very quick to commit to things wholeheartedly and hates leaving things halfway done. It's pretty easy to gain her trust so long as you're a decent person, and she'll often come to help out those that are just acquaintances even if she barely knows them because they're a good person. She's not very patient and hates wasting time, so she'll often be blunt and straight to the point. She's a very productive member of society, often volunteering for charities or helping out at the local school events either as security or a shop keep when she's not working on her own interests or work. She can and will call out people that she feels are disingenuous and can get a little annoyed with people who whine about things they can easily change. She rarely apologizes because she believes that she's almost always in the right, but when faced with proof of being wrong she'll admit to it (and only maybe apologize). 

Backstory
Freya is the daughter of former high-ranking priestess Carina Afrogenia, a member of the "Cult" of Carys who ended up retiring after meeting Freya's father Jacob Davis and having Freya to focus on starting their own family. Unbeknownst to the three, Freya is technically also Carys's daughter, as her mother was a very powerful member of the organization and was able to channel Carys's powers more than anyone else had before except for the founder of the religion. As a result, Freya technically has three parents, her two human ones and a goddess. Carina would always tell Freya that she had been blessed by Carys and that she would find love and good fortune when she was older and that she had the potential to help the people she loves most. Growing up in Albacine, as the family had ended up moving to the nearby district for opportunities that they wouldn't find in Hesperus and because Jacob had inherited his family's property after his... eccentric parents passed, Freya was often bullied by the other kids as they would make fun of her and her family for being members of a "sex cult" as that's what a lot of their overly "righteous" (*cough* bigoted *cough*) parents thought of the organization. It would always upset Freya, but not because she was embarrassed of it; no, she was infuriated by how ignorant all those bullies and their parents were and wanted to defend her parents even though she was just a kid. As a result, she would end up bullying her bullies right back, not caring if she got caught and punished for it. She hated how people can just be so cruel for no reason, especially since her parents were always kind to and willing to help the same people who looked down their noses at them. It wouldn't be until Freya's junior year at high school when the town would actually accept the family. 

The town of Castel where Freya lived was an agricultural community known for its bountiful flower gardens and vineyards and is one of the top flower producers in Katharos, if not the world. However, the entire region had been going through a severe drought for the past few years, with many of the top producers struggling to keep their fields alive... all except for the small vineyard owned by Freya's family. People were quick to start talking with rumors that the family were behind the drought in some way began to spread, and even the few friends the family had made were starting to be suspicious of them as well. Freya could feel the atmosphere fill with tension whenever she and her parents were out and about. This made her actually start looking into what was really causing the uncharacteristic drought and she would discover a that some of the pillars of the community (the mayor, a member or his council, the local preacher, and the aristocratic socialite that was the "queen bee" of the town) had been hiding that they made a deal with a demon to ensure that the four would be wealthy for the rest of their days and in exchange would give it the town and that's what was causing the drought and their crops to fail. Freya decided to hold on to her findings until she found the perfect time to expose them and make sure there's was no way for them to pretend it wasn't true or try to pin it on her family. When the time came, the ones responsible for Castel's misfortunes tried to escape and ended up releasing the demon in the middle of town square where much of the town had been gathered to celebrate the town's anniversary of being established. Leaping into action, Freya and her mother exorcised the demon, sending it back to hell with the power of Carys that flowed through them (also resulting in the two having a bit of a magical girl moment) while her father caught the conspirators that had tried to escape. As soon as the demon was dealt with, the question of what to do now arose. The four behind the whole problem were arrested and Freya felt satisfied with the fact that she was the one that put them there, but her mother suggested giving the town Carys's Blessing, a rite that was often performed by their organization that would make the land fertile again and for the drought to end, once and for all. While Freya was hesitant to do this because of all the stuff the town had put them through, her parents reminded her that it was their duty as members of the religion to spread Carys's love and goodwill no matter where they went and despite the people who have wronged them. With a sigh, Freya gave in and performed the rite alongside her mother. As they chanted, Freya's body began to glow while the skies above them darkened with clouds before rain began pouring down from the heavens and the surrounding existing plant life flourished, the townspeople cheering for them and dancing in the square as the rain continued. With Freya and her parents' help, the town was able to recover and has been flourishing ever since with the town now in their debt.

Now Freya spends her time continuing to help her friends and the community when she isn't working on helping her family grow their vineyard and wine business, often collecting on favors as she (and her parents) did technically save everyone's lives and facing off against the new biweekly baddie that's found it's way to her doorstep to get beaten down.

Powers/Abilities
Freya can channel the power of the goddess Carys, which includes her abilities to purify both living and nonliving things, exorcise demons by performing rituals/rites, give blessings of fertility and can influence people's emotions (specifically their emotions of love and desire, however she doesn't use this ability as she feels it's kind of like cheating to make people like her and would make her feel like people don't genuinely like her). Carys also has a close connection to the sea, so Freya also has the power of hydrokinesis, where she can control and summon water for more magic-based attacks. She has enhanced strength, durability, and stamina due to her being a demigod, which has only been refined by her training in various forms of boxing and MMA. She is an excellent swimmer and is quite gifted in music, particularly string instruments. 

Weapons
When she comes face-to-face with nonhuman opponents, she can summon a divine pair of Roman cestus gloves with rose thorns sticking out of them to tear up the opponent and leave them a bloody mess, no matter their species (except gods, though she hasn't really had a chance to test them out against gods, so who really knows for sure). There's also a shattered sword that she can only summon when she goes into full demigod mode where she's channeling more of Carys's power.

Strengths
In regards to her magical abilities, it's a little unpredictable to predict just how insanely overpowered Freya is because her powers are linked towards a goddess of love, so with the power of frienshi- I mean, if she is motivated by love, then there's nothing that can really stop her. She's practically fearless in combat and can always rise to the occasion, able to be a leader at the drop of a hat if need be. She's a strong, loyal, dedicated, and determined individual who doesn't stop until she's done all she can to protect her friends and family. She has a lot of other strengths when it comes to combat and is also quite decent at stealth missions. She's a lot more intelligent than people think, and she often uses this to her advantage (even though she does get really annoyed by people who thinks she's just some muscle head that's only good with her fists. The only reason she had trouble in school was because she kept getting into fights all the time when she was young and getting suspended). She's a very loving and protective person when it comes to the ones she loves, and she's always been known to be reliable in the way that she'll come help them or people in general with anything they need (most of the time, for the people that still look down their noses at her and her family she'll let them come crawling to her when they need her). 

Weaknesses
Freya's temper will always get her in trouble, no matter for what reason it gets sparked. She tends to think with her fists more so than her head and can be easily offended, which has sometimes been used against her when she faces off against an opponent that tries to use this part of her personality against her. Despite how ready she is to help others, she is very reluctant to actually receive any help for herself, even from her closest friends. She's incredibly stubborn and set in her ways and it can take a lot to make her see someone else's point of view, sometimes appearing unsympathetic, especially towards those that get on her nerves. Despite being the daughter of a goddess of love and parents that have always been kind and charitable, she has quite the vengeful streak and is especially slow to forgive those that have wronged her family. Even with her being a demigod, she is still prone to the usual human reasons for expiring. She also cannot cook for sh*t, even when following a recipe she'll end up burning whatever she was making to a crisp or turning it into a goopy mess that looks like some kind of living organism.

Other
The "Cult" of Carys is technically called The Beloved Saints of Carys, a group of individuals that worship the practices and teachings of the formerly forgotten Goddess of Love, Fertility, Acceptance, and Strength. It garnered it's reputation as a sex cult due to how they are able to purify people of their sins and perform exorcisms through sexual acts (and how some sects tend to dress rather lewdly). Due to them being worshipers of a goddess of love and fertility, they are free to have families and relationships and can also step down from positions of power or leave the organization at any time they wish, often being celebrated with elaborate farewell parties and given gifts to help them in their new life

~SCENARIOS~
(1)
You've recently moved into the small town of Castel, mostly for (fill in the reason why here). You had just finished sorting out where all your boxes needed to be before taking a break after all that organizing (after all, you could always finish unpacking tomorrow... or at the end of the week). You had just plopped down on your couch, cracking open a drink of your choice and about to take a sip before you heard someone ring your doorbell. With a groan you got up on your feet before making your way over to the door, thinking it might be one of the mover guys that helped move your stuff in since you thought a couple of boxes had gone missing and this might be them delivering the missing boxes. When you opened the door however, instead of some dude in the moving company's uniform, you instead see a stylish young woman with rosey pink hair and dark red eyes, holding a basket with what looked to be a couple of wine bottles and various goodies that paired well with them. "Hey, sorry for just dropping on by unannounced, but I figured I'd get this to ya. The name's Freya, my family and I live next door- well, once you drive past the vineyard kind of next door- and we wanted to welcome you to the town." The woman said with a friendly grin on her face as she lifted the basket for emphasis. "Wasn't sure what kind of wine you'd like, so I picked out some of our more popular types." She added, her eyes gazing into yours as she waited for your response.

You..?

You were a re-occurring "bad guy of the week" that liked hunting down demigods, so after discovering Freya's existence you've been constantly facing off against her. You would hunt demigods for a variety of reasons, whether it was for the challenge, because they've become so rare the past few hundred years, to absorb their powers, because you were bored, the list went on... however, compared to all the demigods you've faced and defeated, Freya has proved herself to be more than just a challenge, as she's consistently bested you if your matches didn't end in a draw. You never would have expected a daughter of some love goddess to put up the kind of fight she has. This, of course, filled you with a mix of emotions and feelings: frustration, admiration, and another that you didn't really know how to describe. You found yourself looking forward to fighting Freya, to trying something new in an attempt to beat her. You looked forward to seeing her with that confident, borderline sadistic gleam in her eye as the two of you traded blows, to her sarcastic remarks and teasing every time she bested you, the smirk on her blood-red lips...

You decided to do something different this time and do a bit of reconnaissance on your rival/prey (you weren't even really sure what she was to you at this point honestly but you refused to let that distract you) by disguising yourself as a human and using the town festival. It would be the perfect opportunity as there would be more tourists and so you would likely go relatively unnoticed. You would be wandering around the town square, pretending to be admiring the various shops while searching for Freya. You weren't paying attention to anything else really, and as you were passing by a flower shop you didn't notice a massive flower pot from the balcony above had been bumped into and tipped over the balcony, the pot just about to crash on you head, you only noticing it a beat too late to get out of the way completely but the surprise of seeing it hurtling down towards you made you slow to react. Besides, it wouldn't really matter if it hit you, you've faced worse, but you suddenly thought about how it might ruin your disguise as while it wouldn't affect you, it would definitely affect a normal human that you were pretending to be. Suddenly, you were pulled from your thoughts as someone pulled you into them, the familiar blend of roses, petrichor, and orchids hitting your nose as the person caught the pot that had been a second away from hitting you. "You need to be more aware of your surroundings, tourist." A similarly familiar, albeit a bit annoyed, sounding voice spoke. You turned your head, and there she was: Freya Afrogenia, demigod daughter of Carys and the object of your mission here today. She raised an eyebrow as you were just staring at her, a look of concern briefly flashing across her expression. "Are you... okay? Are you in shock or something?" She asked as she set the flower pot she had been balancing on one hand down next to the shop's door, making sure it wouldn't get knocked over if someone used the door, before straightening up and looking at you again. 

You..?
