TITLE
code notes:
fix whatever the fuck is going on with the palette below this. sigh.
set up vitals table, check out bootstrap options to see if any dont suck
—a spot for lyrics?
—still thinking abt a top column with the title. figure out what to put on the other side if so
—work on gallery further
—figure out spots for pagedolls to sit
—put abilities somewhere. either in the tabbing below or in one of these columns (update: maybe turn this column into a tab)
—ideally set up a stat bar
set a main active tab so it doesn't end up expanding downward
overflow:auto on the other tabs
—set up the shape of a connections box
—look back on the test code created for TH for anything that could be ported over

ability table at the forefront. secondary tab will have appearance info. would like the tabbing for this to be very understated, like the icons are off to the side and a little smaller.

Much like his element, Kasuf can be a volatile sort to interact with. He's rarely angry, surprisingly mild-mannered compared to other gods of poor weather, but he's prone to sudden bouts of anxiety or melancholy; it can be hard to tell how close he is with others, at least to anyone but himself, as he is quick to form tight bonds even if he struggles to express it in a clear fashion. He can often be withdrawn, attributed to his perception of his own destructive abilities.

Still he strives to connect with others, at times to his own detriment. His strings are easy to pull and this can be used for malicious or unkind purposes if one is so inclined; his overall amiable nature saves him in many ways, as he doesn't often make enemies, but he makes an easy target for a more manipulative sort.

Paradoxically he can be overly distrustful of individuals of a certain status, usually those with power over him. He also has a strained relationship with other gods of the sky, as their more temperamental and aggressive natures tend to clash with his own.

the winds, gentle and leading and warming but full of a strength, brought himself upon the ocean. between he and she there was a beautiful thing, though kept apart, his touch always skimming but reaching no further. such was the forbidden nature of their love: their realms were never meant to cross.

and still they found a way, with the tenacity of a passion more like that of mortals than gods. his winds brought the instability of birth's disruption, her ocean the lifewater that fed it, and between them cycled a fearsome storm, so destructive but so beautiful in its symmetry. their own galaxy, orbiting a center of immeasurable depth, absolute calm.

he was born there, of the eye of that creation. and the earth called him the storm, the gale, the squall- and the sky called him the twisted, the land-razer, the bastard god. but in birth he was called kasuf, and his mother the sea, his father the prevailing winds, called him beloved.
and here i can stick his history.

LINEAGE
SUFYAN— GOD OF PREVAILING WINDS.
sufyan is unusual for a meteorology, in that he tends to have a good relationship with mortals. his realm is very broad and thus he travels often; his treatment is favorable, and though he rarely shows himself as an entity, those who have gleaned his existence see him as a loving patron.
MARIYAH— GOD OF OCEAN CURRENTS.
mariyah can be volatile, as is typical for abyssals; her relationship with mortals is more conflicted due to the dangers posed to them by the sea, but she rarely shows them malice. the ocean life that rely on her are lovingly watched over, and she works to foster an environment that keeps them safe. she is more likely to take a physical form, but even less likely to be seen, as her presence is usually confined beneath the surface.
keeping record of details to include:
  • god of storms, usually spends his time as one. his shape depends on the geography of the area he's currently residing in.
  • spent the vast majority of his early existence over the ocean, exploring and refining himself. here he first interacted with birds migrating over the ocean. protected them and gave them warning so that they wouldn't get caught in his storms. the first songbird to cross his path was a veery; he blessed them accordingly, and now every member of the species shows an immaculate mental clock for the hurricane season.
  • eventually became curious about the land the birds were traveling to/from so he ventured inland for the first time. has grappled with the destructiveness of his existence in a place where he can actually cause significant damage.
  • he can detach from his storm and take a physical form, but he doesn't do this often. usually when he does he takes the form of a bird, to satisfy his wanderlust without having to create a storm-track.
  • he's almost never humanoid, and as a result, is not very good at making a human body. he'll often mistakenly manifest birdlike features; at its worst he looks almost like a harpy but usually just stray patches of feathers. it's also harder for him to 'hold it together'— since his native form is cloudlike, if he's not careful his body will essentially evaporate.
  • his feathers are a true black, absorbing light. his talons are gold, and shiny. sometimes he has a foggy effect about him, making it clear that his 'body' is really just very, very dense clouds. his eyes are pale, sharp blue when agitated or otherwise energized- they spark and flicker like lightning. otherwise, they are a very dark brown, nearly black. if he's agitated enough he will get staticky, and pushed past a certain point he will completely crackle with lightning, dancing over his skin and especially his feathers.
  • still very close to his mother and father. would like to add a little inlay for each of them. sufyan is the god of prevailing winds; mariyah is a god of the oceans. they rarely take a physical form although they're capable of doing so. both keep a keen eye on their son wherever they're able, and he convenes with them often. they still shelter him most nights when he sleeps, if he's maintaining a physical form. he doesn't need it but it's comforting.
  • deceptively heavy. the nature of his form allows him to essentially float if necessary, but if he were to be picked up without doing that it would probably be very difficult.
  • though other gods have little trouble maintaining their forms and don't usually have the same physical needs as mortals, kasuf finds it particularly strenuous, necessitating some form of rest or meditation. he naps frequently and drinks a lot of water to mitigate this (though he doesn't need to eat).
  • he's very soft to the touch and vaguely damp, like touching fog. if he's not trying hard enough to hold together, you could put your hand right through him— he likes to use this to startle people.
  • absolutely no sense of social cues or anything of the kind. interpersonal interactions are the kind of thing he has to learn by experience.
