God Form: Snow white, long, straight hair compliments milky white skin and sky blue eyes. Those are words that describe the Second God. She has soft features that constantly have a subtle hint of sadness to them yet a regal appeal. Save for a red dot between her eyes her skin is untouched makeup or blemishes. She is a small, slender woman who is beautifully curved. She has the unmatched beauty one expects from a God. She wears an off white leather corset over an off the shoulder white silken gown. Little platinum butterfly studs compliment the gown, as does a platinum necklace necklace with a butterfly pendant. A delicate platinum chain is around each wrist and has a slender chain that hooks to a ring around her middle finger on each hand. A similar design is around her ankles and hooks to her middle toes.
God Glow: Mataya's God Glow is crimson.
Mortal Form: When Mataya takes a mortal form it is very similar to her God form but with slightly darker tones. Her clothing is also quite similar. She doesn't often take a mortal form, as she typically deals with mortals in a more indirect way.
Personality: Mataya is a God who wears her heart on her sleeve. When something upsets her it is easy to tell. She doesn't get super involved in the ways of mortals, preferring to watch and admire how they grow and change from a distance. When Mataya speaks it is rarely more than a single word. She does not generally defy the other Gods, content to go with the decisions they make unless it is something she really doesn't agree with aand can't resign herself to accept it.
