Wrath of the Sun, Solaris
A demigod who wanders the scorching wastes of the Sahara in search of the Waters of Life. As a descendant of the sun god, she is not bothered by the heat of the deserts. Her staff is imbued with the power of the sun itself, and her companion Fira keeps her company amidst the lonely sands.

Sorry, I can't do actual images on my device...
A tiny girl was born on a subtropical island off the coast of Japan, Okinawa, into the chaos and danger of the royals. Her mother was the Oceanica, or the Sea Empress, and no one knew who her father was. Some even wondered if she had a father, since her mother had been in solitude for all her reign, or if the Oceanica had been blessed with a heir by Coralina, the Goddess. Nobody knew for sure, so they all assumed that the infant had been born naturally. The reality was anything but. The girl grew up, but people started to notice that she had very strong charisma, intelligence, and skill. She quickly became an excellent archer, and anything else she put her mind to, she could excel at. By the time she was 13, her mother, who had started to fade, or pass on into the hands of the Goddess, had made her the captain of the leading military troop on Okinawa. When she was 21, when the she would be Named by the Oceanica, who would be embodied by the Goddess for the ceremony. The people of the sea had there naming ceremony then they turned 21. There were never any duplicate names, and Coralina was a forbidden name, since that was the Goddess. By this point, the girl had climbed to the top of the society, with literally everything accomplished. Before the ceremony, there was a commotion at the Acropolis, where the Oceanica and her daughter lived, and where anything from the goddess, whether a message or a physical gift, arrived. There had been a Calling, where every citizen of Okinawa would be drawn to the Acropolis to receive the Goddess' message. This had only happened one other time, when Nysii, the demon of the waters, had broken free of the guardhouse and was attacking the children of Okinawa. Luckily, the Oceanica was able to stop Nysii, and had her soul banished from the sea. Now, the people saw what the Goddess had sent them. It was the name for the girl. The Oceanica read it aloud to the people. The name was Coralina.

(Side note: the thing that inspired me to write this was my half-Okinawan (yup, it's an actual place) heritage, and the fact that I go there every summer, except this one (wishing everyone with a loved one or acquaintance who has COVID a complete recovery), so therefor it is my legit definition of summer)

The Firefly Whisperer
Being that she can understand & helps the fireflies, she is considered a queen of sorts to them.
& to show their thankfulness/graciousness, they put on a light show every night of the summer, to honor her.

This fancy lady right here is the queen and caretaker of all ocean life. Well, unofficial queen. She wears a crown but there really is no monarchy in place. She cares for all ocean life, helping animals who are sick or caught in human traps. How does she live underwater you ask? No one knows. Seriously, no one. In fact, she's part leafy sea dragon, so that probably helps somewhat. Where she came from? Another mystery.

"The Fairy Minstrel"
You wander about the fair, taking in the sights of the fanciful costumes, the sound of the fair actors calling out in their archaic patter, and the heat of the summer day. Vendors are displaying their wares, inviting visitors to add whimsy to their attire, or to take a piece of fantasy home with them.
As you wander about, nothing in particular enticing you, you hear a tune that catches your attention. A young woman dressed in a fairy costume stands in a circle of onlookers, plucking a lively dance tune on her lute. Her wings flutter as she sways to her music, and many of the spectators are tapping their feet. As more people come to listen, the rhythm begins to infect them. Soon, the people are dancing, taking partners, spinning and twirling with the beat. You can't help but join in.
As the dance becomes more wild, you find yourself dancing faster and faster. But abruptly, the music comes to a stop. The spell is suddenly broken, and people mill around, the fairy musician collecting her profits. As you wander away, you reflect on the peculiar fervor that had gripped them. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that there was something not entirely ordinary about that music.
Of magical nature or not, the event would remain a vivid memory.

Lazy Summer Goddess
With warmth comes a the gentle wish to laze around. The sun's heat brings about the drowsy days when all you want to do is lie in the sun and sleep. The summer goddess is no exception, she is one with the daydreams and visions that come with being half asleep. She lives in a time somewhere between reality and fiction. You may see her in your dreams, you may see her in the corner of your eye, but you will never see her head on. Know she cares for you and all the other summer beings. She is a gentle creature, who only wants to bring warmth and happiness to those she watches over.

She is the deepest part of the ocean, the Mariana Trench. She swallows all the light coming from the surface, allowing only the bravest and strongest creatures of the sea to venture into her murky, lightless depths, which no human has ever emerged from - or entered at all. Any creature deemed unworthy by her is swallowed by her giant squids or her henchmen, or crushed to death by the pressure she creates, which is heavier than five schoolbuses on top of a human being. No one can withstand that kind of pressure, only the "worthy" and her dwell in those dark, midnight depths.

An evil fire demon lives in the volcano. But it's summer and it's just so nice and toasty outside!
Meanwhile in California the fires are back- (it's a pain)
I write sometimes but I don't know how to write character bios?

Slipping out of the water she approached a human, striking up a conversation. Her goal was to drown and eat the human but it wasnt long before she found a smile on her face. Wishing the human a good day she moved to the next human. This human was tieing the tails of two sylesti together and laughing while they tried to get free. Starting a converation the person made it very clear very quickly that they deserved her vengance. Luring her victim to the water she grabbed hold and sunk down into the frigid liquid as it closed around them. With another more vicious smile on her face she swum towards her home with her meal. This little adventure to the world above would keep her fed till winter fest.
Under the water, entry image is the above water one xD
