Demetra

Dicey Dangers, Core Rule

Game by Joel Hills

Demetra, Deity of Death

Demetra is a dragon whose eyes emanate a poisonous mist constantly, which makes her unapproachable by regular beings. Despite her intimidating appearance, Demetra is at a tranquil mind state most of time, but her sadness is triggered whenever she senses that someone is about to die.

Instead of making death a painful process, Demetra's poisonous mist is also somniferous. This way, she helps other people transition from one life to the next peacefully.

It is unknown for everyone what the destiny of the souls that fall under Demetra's death spell is. Some say that she eats their souls to end their suffering, while others believe that they’re sent to a spirit asylum where they can figure out what the next step for their souls will be.

If you find a brown scale near a dying person, Demetra has already visited them. Thus, the death process is irreversible and they will soon be covered in the dragon’s poisonous mist.

Appearance

Demetra is a dragon with an elongated body covered in dark brown scales. Her eyes are completely black, and are constantly giving off poisonous mist. As she’s always moving through the sky, her body is often mistaken by a cloud.

Since she does not possess wings, Demetra can’t fly. However, she has mastered the art of levitating, which makes her capable of moving through air or land as she pleases.

Demetra’s claws are sharp as blades. Despite having excellent combat abilities, she despises violence.
