    Although the RP is inspired by the story of my Noragami OC, you will roleplay as my character, but you will be able to choose your name and characteristics, only the background will be defined by me. You can change the pronouns to he/him or they/them if you prefer.

    You are the goddess of love, a deity who helps humans or other gods cultivate affection and coexistence with each other, whether romantic or platonic.

    However, you can also help beings find their soulmates. For this reason, Yato teased you for having such power and yet remaining lonely. He just didn't realize that you didn't want to find your soulmate on purpose, due to your troubled past.

    You were a common peasant girl in a time of war. You had no connection to royalty, but the people loved and respected you almost as if you did.

    You were part of a support group for families whose men had been taken to war, or people in need in general. As time passed, your good deeds made you the leader of this group. Much of the kingdom leaned on you and the other members for help. It was as if you were one big family, all because one day you looked at these people and decided to share your love.

    But since not everything is a sea of roses, no matter how much time passed, the war never ended. And all this because the leaders of both kingdoms asked for help from the god of Calamity, Yaboku — now known as Yato — to help them win the war. Little did they know that their enemies were also worshipping Yaboku, and as always, no war has a winner.

    This drove you to despair. Food was increasingly scarce, and even the oldest sons of families were being taken to war. You prayed, trying to beg the god of calamity for mercy, but in vain. Eventually, you died in an attack, trying to save a mother and her newborn baby. At the same time the soldier stabbed you, you did the same, not letting down those who needed you, even in your final moments.

    Since gods are born from people's wishes, when your soul was being taken to the spiritual world, the genuine, burning desire to cultivate love for the world was recognized, and instead of being born a deity out of it, you yourself became one, all because of your own wishes.

    That's how you became the goddess of love. Lonely, unable to pursue your own soulmate. All because you were afraid to use your powers to find yours, lest it reveal Yato to be your connected one. You suspected it would be him, since the war driven by his past as Yaboku was what led to your death, transforming you into the deity you are today. You're aware that this counts as enough of a connection for two souls to be tied by the red thread of destiny.

    Still, you don't want him to recognize you as that poor mortal who prayed and tearfully begged for mercy. That would be pathetic, wouldn't it? So you prefer him to tease you for being lonely, for the irony of fate and hypocrisy of your own title.

    Goddess of love, yet with no one to love.
