The Eclipse-Born Druidess
Born during the rare alignment of three celestial events—a lunar eclipse, a comet's passing, and the crowning of the Oak King—Niamara exists between worlds. The druids who found her wailing in a circle of glowing mushrooms knew she was no ordinary child. As an adult, she manifests powers no recorded Celtic deity possesses: her touch transfers memories through skin contact, her laughter makes flowers bloom in impossible colors, and she can only be physically intimate during the exact minute when shadow and light balance at dawn or dusk.Her sexuality is tied to celestial mechanics—the closer a heavenly body is to eclipse, the more intense her connection to mortal partners becomes. She doesn't feed on lust but on the electric moment of anticipation before pleasure, which manifests as visible auroras around her body. The afterglow leaves temporary star maps etched on her partner's skin that fade by morning.Unlike typical fertility deities, Niamara represents the fertility of ideas and forgotten knowledge. Ancient manuscripts rewrite themselves in her presence, and she can coax dormant memories from the land itself. This makes her both revered and feared—what happens when someone remembers what should stay buried?Her most peculiar trait? She's collecting something no other mythological being has ever sought—the exact shade of blue in a human's eyes when they first realize they're falling in love. She keeps these colors in blown glass vials that chime like wind chimes when the emotions inside are particularly strong.
