Oracle Atali

Early Life
Oracle was born as Myrsten Atali, to Adamaris and Ryuichi Atali, in the Atali Tribe. Oracle was praised for her good looks, even if it drew a little too much attention from the clan's males. Oracle never experienced much love, but she didn't know why.

At the age of 8, Oracle discovered she possessed a limited ability to see into the future based on other's intentions, otherwise known as 'objective precognition'. Once Oracle and the Atali Tribe were able to understand her abilities, many began worshipping her, earning her the name 'Oracle', which she began to go by instead of her real name. It would take many, many years for Oracle to control this newfound power.

Death of Ryuichi, Birth of Kina
When Oracle was 12, Ryuichi died in battle, breaking Oracle's heart. To make things worse, Adamaris did not seem to care much for his death, quickly moving onto another man, a human named Junji. Adamaris would quickly fall pregnant, giving birth to a baby girl she named Kina 9 months later.

Progressing into Oracle's teenage years, she grew bitter, resenting her mother for falling in love with a human and bringing Kina (who was half-human) into existence.

At 17, Oracle sent an assassin to kill Junji in secret, putting the blame on a relative of his. Adamaris, in outrage attempted to murder his family to avenge Junji, only to be outnumbered and killed by the family's village. Oracle's uncle, Namboku Atali would take Adamaris' place as the tribe's leader. Oracle became the then 5 year old Kina's guardian, as Namboku refused to care for her, much to Oracle's dismay. To dissociate herself with her past, she completely ceased to go by her birth name, referring to herself as Oracle.

At first Oracle was okay with caring for Kina, despite hating her for being the 'spawn' of her stepfather, but never had the heart to abandon her. Nonetheless, Oracle was neglectful, emotionally and sometimes physically abusive toward Kina. At some point, Kina accidentally burnt half of Oracle's face using Dark Magic. After being treated for the burn, Oracle mercilessly beat Kina, leaving the latter traumatised. From that point onward, Oracle wore a white mask covering the right side of her face.

Discovering Kina's Homosexuality
By the time Oracle was 23, an 11 year old Kina met a girl named Mercedes Orisan, who saved her life after healing her in battle. The two became friends, and eventually fell in love. Seeing Kina's future with her abilities made her aware of their relationship, but didn't tell anyone about it, intending to one day use her knowledge as blackmail against Kina, despising the idea of homosexuality, which was almost unheard of in the Atali Tribe, and supposedly ancient demonic culture in general. Mercedes, despite being 13, also had a child of her own, which sadly in Oracle's point of view, gave her more reason to hate her.

Meeting Fleur Orisan
Oracle would soon meet Fleur, Mercedes' older sister while spying on Kina and Mercedes. Fleur didn't like Oracle being near her sister, trying to get Oracle to back off on numerous occasions. Fleur also had a flirtatious side, which very quickly got on Oracle's nerves. They met again several times, until Oracle gave up spying on her sister, just to get away from Fleur.

Over the next few weeks, Oracle began to realise that she was homosexual just like her sister, through her lacking love life and not being able to stop thinking about Fleur. Despite Oracle not wanting to see her, she knew it was at this point inevitable, so she ventured out to near where Fleur would usually be. She was there, and after having enough of Fleur's flirting, Oracle kissed her just to 'shut her up', or so she said afterward.

Oracle and Fleur began meeting up regularly, sometimes, if not frequently hooking up in secret, as Fleur was married and homosexuality was a crime at that time. Since their first kiss, Oracle had been developing feelings for Fleur, trying to deny the possibility of her being homosexual, attempting to convince herself Fleur was no more than a casual 'fling'. While Oracle was generally unkind to Fleur, gradually she began to treat her nicer. That was until one day, when Oracle's mask became loose and fell off in front of Fleur, revealing her partly burnt face. Oracle quickly put her mask back on, before running away from Fleur in embarrassment.

Presumed Death of Fleur, Taking in Sabel
Not long after, Fleur died of suicide, leaving Oracle heartbroken, knowing that she kept so much from Fleur. She would meet Sabel, Fleur's daughter who was a bit older than Mercedes' daughter, Sapphire. Knowing that Fleur's husband was an abuser, and that Fleur would want better for Sabel, Oracle took her in. Oracle did have some experience with raising Kina when she was younger, although she was not the best guardian to her.

This would cause a major shift in character in Oracle, seeking advice from Mercedes and Kina. In this, Oracle worked to repair her broken relationship with Kina, and over time, they began to bond again as they raised their 'daughters' alongside one another. Oracle tried her best to raise Sabel, both for herself and Sabel's sake, but also for Fleur...

Death of Mercedes Orisan and Broken Relationship with Kina
Years later, Kina and Mercedes' relationship would be exposed to the Orisan Tribe, the latter being taken by them. Kina and Oracle would try to rescue Mercedes, but failed. Kina, grief-stricken blamed Oracle for Mercedes' death, claiming Oracle had never changed, only trying to hurt her. Oracle was heartbroken, though also angered to hear this, subsequently leading to them fighting, tearing them apart once more, though this time Kina hated Oracle, instead of the other way around.

Oracle and Sabel moved away from Kina and her children, though allowing each other's kids to visit each other from time to time.

Arranged Marriage with Nabuyuki Kuroichi, Losing Sabel
Namboku would eventually arrange Kina Atali into a marriage, and would do the same with Oracle, but in her case to someone in a neighbouring clan, named Nabuyuki Kuroichi. Oracle, nor happy or displeased, went through with the marriage, planning to leave the Atali Tribe to join the Kuroichi Tribe and marry Nabuyuki. When she told Sabel, however, it did not go well. Sabel would run away from Oracle, leaving the latter sad, alone and falling apart mentally.

Just weeks later, Oracle would marry Nabuyuki, and had 4 children with him, thinking a new start would help her move on from her past, it didn't, and the Kuroichi Tribe was no better than that of the Atali Tribe.

Murdering Nabuyuki, Death and Entrapment in the Kuroichi Temple
Oracle later grew tired of Nabuyuki, attempting to kill Nabuyuki but being caught by him. The two fought, Oracle winning in the end, ultimately leaving the Kuroichi Tribe. As her eldest daughter and son were adults by this time, they would look after the two youngest children. Oracle was caught, retreating to an old temple near the Kuroichi Tribe base, where she was killed. Her soul became bound to the temple, as she was assigned by the gods to become the guardian of the temple. She would later be worshipped as the 'Prophetess of Fortune' (or 'Fōchun De Cybella').

Thousands of Years Later
Oracle, having been a broken and lost soul, could only wish to be free and finally leave the material world. She remained bound to her temple, but eventually found a path to venture in and out of the former Kuroichi Tribe's base. Now the Collett Clan, some among that clan worshipped Oracle, much to her dismay. She never intentionally appeared before anyone, and even a split second of seeing Oracle would be considered a blessing to those that worshipped her, though others would either try to ward Oracle away or were just outright terrified of her.

In the 1800s, a woman named 'Adrienne Castlebrough' (actually Sabel under one of her many aliases) would wander into the Kuroichi Temple, in search of Oracle. Not recognising her, Oracle hid away from her, as she always would do with anyone who stepped foot in the temple. Though after questioning 'Adrienne', Oracle realised it was Sabel. The moment she did know it was Sabel, Oracle suddenly regained a motive to 'live', or remain in the material world a little longer, to help Sabel and to make up for her guilt for failing her as her adoptive mother. Oracle would later briefly meet Fury Castlebrough, Sabel's daughter, and her partner, Akuno Collett. Though Fury didn't believe in gods, and Sabel didn't want to tell Fury who she really was, Oracle was inclined to, wanting to mend the relationship between them as well as getting to know her granddaughter.

Personality
Oracle was quite apathetic, and generally a very bitter person. She had no problem eliminating those that stood in her way, and once despised her sister as well as the idea of homosexuality, yet her morals are very conflicting. Oracle was, and still is notably secretive. Though Oracle never really acted like it, she did love Fleur, and deeply wishes she could have treated her better. Oracle never had a grip of how to love or what love was, having never truly experienced it before.

She cares a lot for Sabel, on an extremely protective level in fear of losing her as she lost Fleur, and eventually Kina, who she once hated for being half-human in her younger years. Raising Sabel drastically changed Oracle's character for the better, and while Sabel brought Oracle happiness she never could reach alone, she always felt as if something, or someone was missing. Oracle hates her past self and past actions, going to lengths such as starting an entirely new family to piece her broken heart back together, only to feel even worse about herself after many years.

After millennia of being trapped in the Kuroichi Temple, Oracle became even sadder, and more broken. She only wanted one thing at this point, and that was to be free of her temple and leave the material world forever. This would, eventually, change when she reunited with Sabel...

Appearance
Oracle is a very tall woman of above average build, with an hourglass figure. She had long, silky dark red/auburn hair, and violet eyes. Her right eye became white with black sclera when her face was burnt by Kina. She had very pale skin with black veins showing in some parts of her body. She often wore a white mask covering the right side of her face in public, which she eventually stopped wearing after she was freed from the Kuroichi Temple. In legends, upon marrying Nabuyuki, her eyes became a scarlet colour. Oracle also has two long-ish, swept back purple horns and a long black tail with a barely there red heart-shaped tip, it having mostly falling off representing her heartbreak.

Often she wore very long, flowy and fancy dresses, which is shown in many depictions of her made by the Collett Clan. Oracle often wore white gloves that blocked her powers when she didn't need them.

Trivia

 * Oracle may be a descendant of an existing god, which may explain her incredibly rare power of objective precognition.
 * It took several decades for Oracle to truly master these abilities.
 * Oracle's tail tip changed throughout her life, depending on her underlying emotions.
 * She was born with a full heart shaped tail-tip, half breaking off after Fleur's death. Adopting and raising Sabel did allow for part of her broken tail-tip to regrow, only for it and part of the other half to break away again after Sabel ran away.
