Amaranthine Mauveon

Amaranthine is the biological daughter between the moon elf Lavyla and the obyrith demon Pazuzu. Despite being raised solely by her mother, Amaranthine craves her father's attention and approval, even though she often has moral conflicts with his motives and wishes.

When her sister Alda is enslaved in the Abyss, Amaranthine becomes determined to prove herself to her father and rise in power above mortals and demons, and hold power in the Abyss through straight-up nepotism. With this power, she believes she can rescue and reunite with her sister, in addition to being empowered with what she believes is her birthright.

Despite this plan and all of Amaranthine's attempts at appeasement, Pazuzu has yet to award her any real unholy power. Taking advantage of her desperation and drive, Pazuzu enjoys commanding her to do tasks for him anyways.

Appearance

Amaranthine is a tall woman with a lean, fit frame. She has a prominent aquiline nose with almost a beak-like shape, and elf-like beauty from her mother's side— as long as the beholder doesn’t find aesthetic issue with her prominent nose.

Her skin is a saturated magenta, hair is an amaranth reddish-pink, eyes an eerie red, and wings are color bands of maroon and light coral. After being "grounded" by her father, she was punished by having the ends of her wings clipped, rendering her flightless. She has light burn scars on her forearms from handling Pork Chop.

Her ears are pointed like an elf's, claws sharp like a demon, and wings feathered like a bird. Thanks to having an atypical appearance for a cambion, she claims to be an avariel to avoid revealing her demonic lineage.

History

Amaranthine was born after her mother, Lavyla, kept pestering and bothering her husband, Pazuzu, for a child. Her mother not only wanted to settle down after adventuring, but she also wanted a sibling for her adoptive[1] daughter, Alda. Lavyla is likely semi if not entirely infertile due to health issues, so she kept demanding Pazuzu use his unholy powers to do something about it.

Personality

Amaranthine is morally neutral, but her need for approval and appeasement towards powerful entities like her father makes her prone to doing morally corrupt or evil acts, even if she doesn't always feel great about them. Yet she is just as prone to sucking up to a powerful benevolent figures as well; whichever she thinks will benefit her the most.

She tries to exude a better-than-you condescending attitude to people, particularly because of her deep desire for power and her personal belief she is due it by virtue of being her father's daughter. People are often off-put by her poor attitude and rudeness, although some might be respectful out of caution thinking shes nobility or part of upper society, considering how she acts. Indirectly supporting that misconception, she will sometimes hint at or say that her family is very powerful and influential, mostly for clout but occasionally as a threat.

Taking after her mom, she can also attempt to be smooth-talking and seductive to get what she wants, if she believe intimidation wouldn't work. However, unlike her mom, she will avoid putting out whenever possible, and is more likely to just use seduction to lower someone's guard down. Amaranthine, although not a virgin, is very sexually inexperienced, so she can only flirt so much before she has to default back to intimidation if her lack of skill becomes obvious.

She secretly really likes animals and children, because caring or looking after a creature dependent on her makes her feel important. It was because of this soft spot for animals that she kept her hellhound puppy, Pork Chop.

Trivia

• Amaranthine's sister, Alda, is older than her by seven years. The two siblings are close, but are prone to bickering and arguing a lot. Amaranthine thinks her sister is messy and unkempt, and Alda thinks Amaranthine is spoiled and prissy.

• Despite her mother treating both her and her sister very well, Amaranthine talks about her mom with exasperation, and is embarrassed her mother is proudly a prostitute-- a fact Amaranthine tries to hide.

• When someone really gets on her nerves, Amaranthine will sometimes drop a "do you know who my father is?" line in the heat of the moment, but will quickly backpedal and be vague/evasive about who her father actually is.
