Gods of Ithia: The Idle Heart.

The Idle Heart. Goddess of Lust, Unions, Whims, and Freedom. 

Known as The Idle Heart, The Idol, The Wanton, The Lady of Silk, The Untouched, and The Doll. 

The Idle Heart is a fantastic beauty, though deep iron burns scar her hands and ankles, showing she had once been crucified. Butterfly wings flutter from her back, and her skin is light pink. She does not constrain her form in clothes to save a silk shawl; she puts all of herself on display. She has visible muscles and gleaming eyes with heart-shaped pupils and no irises. When angered, more eyes open across her body, and on feathers that sprout from her back like thousands of peacock tail feathers turned bladed tentacles.  

The Idle Heart is the most fae of the children of Miecara, having been born of the Miecara and a half-bred fairy.  She is sultry, controlling, but tends to be both overly sweet and bitterly mean on a twisting whim. She doesn’t like being touched by anything and is often found floating about on her great wings or carrying herself upon her feather-like tentacles. She fears the touch of Iron. Idle Heart leads the Lust Coven from the shadows and through her lieutenants.
