abilities
blessing: plant-life manipulationClaire continues to have the ability to grow and nurture plant life, and in this heightened AU, the gift of manipulating time so that all things grow in sync. When she's calm and happy, small flowers bloom in her wake, but if she's emotional in a way that makes her melancholy or angry, plants and flowers will wither and die.
blessing: healing via time manipulation Her gift of life (healing) extends to the ill and injured, something she cannot do in a non-AU setting. When she does use this magic, she gives off a soft blue and white aura, visible to all. In order to use this magic, she needs to generally know when to rewind to. Most of the time that's very obvious: '𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑏𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑝𝑜𝑛 𝑝𝑖𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑒𝑑 𝑠𝑘𝑖𝑛' for example. But in illness, she risks rewinding not far enough, to a time when the person felt well but sickness was already brewing.
curse: negative time manipulation When she is desperately angry because of something done to her or someone she loves, time will begin to rewind unchecked, too quickly, causing fractures and misalignments. The target of her unchecked fury will find they can never settle down or feel home again, even if that home was another's heart. The unbearable prospect of having no one will cause the unfortunate to suffer from stress cardiomyopathy, or 𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑡ℎ 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑎 𝑏𝑟𝑜𝑘𝑒𝑛 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡.
general info
History:

Claire's magic and ability to create life is something she continued to study and excel at, and her reputation grew as her blessings continued to be given. During the first hundred years, she stuck strictly to plants time magic. However, healing is ingrained in Claire, and the ability to manipulate time allows her to put the body back in sync with itself, to be put back together before the injury took place or an illness took root.

At some point, she assisted in the birth of a stillborn goat, but after holding the kid in her arms and concentrating on the exact moment things went wrong within its body, the infant let out a small bleat, then clumsily unfolded itself from her arms. Time rewound and mended, resulting in a perfectly healthy goat. After this event, she became more highly sought after and was elevated in status; eventually, requests were made for her presence or blessing for women in labor. To date, she has only sent her blessing and has not made an appearance at the live birth of a child. To appear would feel as if she's choosing which children deserve her blessing and who does not, a feeling she doesn't enjoy.

𝐙𝐀𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐔𝐒 ➢ Both intercept the same prayer of a young child whose mother has been the victim of a deadly attack. While Claire cannot bring anyone back from the dead, Zagreus's magic boosts hers, and for the first and only time, she's able to succeed. After, in her anger at the assault and trauma inflicted, Zagreus talks her down from losing control of her magic and breaking time.

Things to explore:
✸ Claire and a long-term relationship. 800 years is a very long time; she's forgotten everything, including the 'Fraser' part of her name. This is the time to have her romantically linked to someone, whether we've had a long history of CR or not. There's the possibility for more than one dalliance in that span of time, so I'm willing to talk something out, and work out what any implications outside of the event this may have.

✸ Claire as a parent. How would this work? She'll have 'adopted' kiddos of course, so to be called a mother, or to have that place in someone's life would be fulfilling for her.

✸ Her ability to manipulate time could be used for all kinds of things, and if there's a particular situation to play with this ability would be fun. Double points if it goes sideways and she begins fracturing time.
