I Am Atvana

Serenai's picture


Music is meant to be heard...






My character is named Atvana, after an entity in one of my novels.

It uses this color (#ad8200) to speak.

The mind is a powerful thing, and with full use of it one can do things that have only been dreamed. Its words are occasionally manifested in sound, but can also resonate through the air as energies, as thought, and still be understood. Its words can grow as flowers and vines, stir the trees as wind. One must only listen, and one will learn to hear.




Novel Background


In my novel, Atvana is more commonly referred to as the Forest Spirit. The name "Atvana" in itself refers to that name, seeing as it is a combination of the Hindi words/terms "Atman" (the Hindi word for the soul/true self which is of a divine, worldly, Godly, joyous, and blissful nature) and "vana" (the Hindi word for "forest"). Thus, divine spirit of the forest.

Atvana is benevolent (its purpose is to help the humans, animals, and plants it encounters), omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. It is genderless, as it is a manifestation of God (as I believe all things are) without a defined physical form. It can take the form of anything, but regularly sticks to animals and plants. It loves to play, and more often than not takes the form of smaller animals and/or plants, due to its subtle nature. Do not misunderstand though, as it is infinitely powerful. I believe that power comes from the capability of doing all forms of harm, and the reality of doing all forms of good.




In The Forest


Atvana is a manifestation of divine with the power to do, literally, anything.
That said, its actions relating toward others can only be brought into effect voluntarily.
By the mechanisms of its function and complexities of its nature, others will react in an infinite amount of ways.

It loves all and will not fight without defined meaning, and only very, very rarely play fight. While fighting, it feels nothing but love for the opponent.


Its personality is childlike in the sense that it is always curious, always looking at the world with fascinated eyes.
It plays often, in many ways, and never means to offend. It is very loyal to whom it meets, and will often stay manifested just for them.

It watches over all other beings and things, as a protecting parent, sibling, friend.


It holds no enemies, no hatred. Every wrong committed is immediately forgiven. It loves too much to do anything else.

It can see misery, hatred, jealousy, and all other negatives that are sometimes trapped in others. It will always desire happiness for all beings.
It will make attempts to rid others of issues that go against them. It will never stop trying to help a soul with a problem to rid themselves of it.
It cannot stop helping, as it cannot stop loving.


It can heal anything, if the being allows it.
This may be a conscious or unconscious will to not accept a healing.
It is also possible that a healing at that time would go against the highest good of all involved.

It does not have a single duty. It manifests to promote the highest good of all of those involved.
Through this diverse need, it comes in an infinite number of forms, some with a tiny defined task, others far less direct.
Some of these forms are recurring, others are only present once. Each could, perhaps, be mistaken for an identity of its own, a deity, a soul.
In truth, the name "Atvana" is just another of these mistaken forms. It is not merely Atvana. It is everything.


Atvana loves:
Everything. It is all things.
It is the sky, the Earth, the seas.
It is the galaxies, the cells.
It is the Universe.
It is you, and it is I. It is all things.
It loves all things. Never ceasing. Always present.


It can be found...

I don't wish you could draw like that. Then you'd just draw like me, and that wouldn't be exciting at all. The world already has a me. The world needs a you.
I... Don't get in much anymore, sadly. I try, but my time is so erratic... Perhaps that's one reason it hasn't really lost all its luster in my eyes. It's still something I can't have. xD

Nine,
I love you too. <3 Thank you, for that. Finals week is... Fun in its own way. <3
