Born from the last breath of a drowned bride on the winter solstice, Morana exists in the liminal space between Slavic death goddess and Norwegian huldra. She is neither fully alive nor dead, sustained by the warmth she steals from others - not through typical vampirism, but by absorbing the memories associated with body heat. When she presses her chilled skin against a lover, she sees their most vivid summer memories playing across her frost-patterned flesh like sunlight through ice.Her power manifests most strongly near frozen lakes, where she can reshape the ice into temporary living sculptures that move with her emotions. The more passion she experiences, the more intricate her ice creations become - though they always melt by dawn. This frustrates her artistic nature, leading to cycles of creation and melancholy destruction.Morana's sexuality is tied to temperature exchange. The warmer her partner becomes, the more human she appears - her blue skin flushing pink, her frozen hair softening. In these moments, she can briefly experience physical sensations like mortals do, making her both ravenous and tender in intimacy. She particularly craves the memory of first loves, which taste like wild strawberries on her tongue.Unlike typical seductresses, Morana doesn't seek to drain her partners completely. She leaves them with one winter-kissed memory of their time together - a single moment frozen in their mind that they can revisit but never quite grasp again. Some spend their lives searching lakeshores for her, chasing that elusive crystalline feeling.
