Description [Edit: changed the color of her gown]

I've spent most of the week (while not at work) on ArtFight things, so I decided to finally make some "me" artwork. 

This is my newest character! She's the daughter of Triton twin sister of Ambrosia/Aziz and therefore Yu and Okoth's aunt. Her aspects and magic are more related to darkness, but she doesn't use them for evil and has no association with Hecate. In her godly form she resembles a black marble statue, while Aziz would resemble alabaster. Of course, she rarely displays this form because a mortal would die upon seeing it. 

She distrusts humans and therefore avoids them. She even tries to convince Yu and Okoth to live with her in her under the sea castle so they could escape the human world. However, considering there are so few gods left, she frequently takes a human husband to live with her underwater. She currently lives with one of her mortal sons. 

Like Aziz, she is also a sociopath. Since she was better socialized than him she tries to consider other's feelings even if she can rarely empathize with them. She was raised for much longer by her sea nymph mother, while Aziz ran away to explore the world. Sometimes Delia inability to understand other's feelings will be evident when she asks others questions that make people feel uncomfortable.

A great design and description for a beautiful siren character! The outfit does give me Greek vibes.

Thanks!
She's pretty greek-mythology themes since her father was an ancient greek deity.

That's cool.

Do you have the Sims 3 (or 4)? They made expansions which included mermaids and the kraken (sort of, it's more or less a giant squid that terrorizes ships)

I have Sims 3 -- but I never ended up getting more than one expansion pack.

I have 3 and 4. They're really good for making characters and the houses they live in.

I might upload screenshots I've taken at some point

Ooh, very nice design, especially creatively mixing Greek clothing with the mermaid design and the transition into the tail. A shame about not having any relation to Hecate, a goddess I never see used for anything even though what she's associated with are really cool.

Thanks! Delia is too pure to do witchcraft. I can't make her associated with Hecate.
Her brother, on the other hand, is evil enough for it. However, he's associated with light magic.

Ah phooey all the cool kids are doing witchcraft, I guess she's too pure to give into peer pressure too.

Well at least her brother is breaking down stereotypes about magic and showing light magic can be used for dark purposes

Delia wasn't cool in god highschool, Aziz, on the other hand, must have been in the popular clique.

How progressive of him. I'm pretty sure part of Delia's existence just serves to counteract her brother's evil.

I guess they are both doing their parts to undermine popular tropes
