Avan

"I lived for so long. Nearly two million years isn’t something to laugh at. In all my years of life, I learned two things. One, my husband can be a colossal idiot. I mean, who destroys a star by accident. Two, it’s the little things in life that make everything worth it."

- Avan

Avan/Awan is the wife of Cain and the last of the Original Humans left in existence. She is a major upcoming character in the story, Highschool DxD: Til Midnight. Despite her youthful appearance, she is nearly over a million years in age due to her being an Original Human.

Avan is often known as the first witch having practiced magic after her town was besieged by monsters sent by the local pantheon that controlled her area.

Appearance
Collette is described to be a woman whose beauty was a divine gift that God himself crafted. She has striking crimson hair and deep blue eyes that are said to pull you in. Collette has fair skin and a slender build. When she is angry or flaring her power, her eyes shift to deep violet.

She is seen mostly wearing a green sundress with white accents on it. She ties her hair up into two short pigtails while letting the rest flow down her back. In combat, she wears a white battle dress with a white breastplate and black leggins with white boots. Avan also dons a snow-white cloak.

Personality
Due to her status as an orphan, Avan is a kind and fairly open-minded individual. She always seems to accept any idea from anyone and does not discriminate against others. Ruby describes her grandmother as extremely generous always putting the needs of others before herself. This has gained her a reputation of a Saint. Her kindness has impacted the lives of many such as Ingvild Leviathan, her beloved apprentice. Her presence seems to radiate kindness according to Vigne. In fact, her presence was enough to even pacify an entire mob of angry humans who displayed their disapproval at the existence of the supernatural. Due to her kind attitude, Avan despises those who take advantage of those who are helpless. Those that do bring down her immense wrath upon them. This was seen when she brutally and mercilessly annihilated an entire group of demons who pillaged her village.

Avan can be very stern and was seen as a major authority figure during the Great War. She could effortlessly command the loyalty and ear of her troops. Avan does not tolerate discord within her ranks often emphasizing teamwork as a major proponent within the dynamics of her team. She was a fair and kind leader often projecting a motherly or sisterly image for her troops, friends, and family.

Avan is described by her daughter and Lilith to be an extremely analytical person. Avan tends to analyze situations before acting. This made her a tactical genius capable of devising strategies capable of turning the tides of war. She can also make split-second decisions that can catch her opponents off guard. Her analytical habit also seems to apply to people. Avan has the ability to discern the abilities of her enemies, their strengths and weaknesses, and their overall temperament. This allowed her to defeat Cain for the first time taking advantage of his hesitation to harm a human.

Like the rest of her family, Avan displays a thrill and enjoyment for battle. No matter how much she dislikes this part of her, Avan loves battle often being extremely displeased when a battle bores her. It is said by her eldest children that the time their parents fell in love was the time they first fought as it brought out feelings in Avan for Cain.

Trivia

 * Avan is based on Theresia Van Astrea from Re: Zero much like how Cain is based on Wilhelm Van Astrea. I like a good old ship.
 * The fact that she is over a million years in age is due to the fact that I used the actual age of Homo Sapiens as a whole rather than mythological ages making her older than some of the younger gods. She is as old as the Titans from Greek Mythology, the Kaminonanaoya, and the younger gods of Sumerian Myth.
 * The fact that her two daughters have blue hair has always confused the two but other than that, Astaroth has her father's eyes and her mother's face while Vigne has her mother's eyes and her father's face.
