Age: ....Timeless being who can look like whoever and whatever she likes UM her PB is a young lady of Indian descent in her 20s
Gender/Sex: she clearly identifies as She but she can look like whoever and whatever she likes SHE TENDS TO APPEAR FEMALE
Appearance: Wears a body like clothes so no really she can look like whoever and whatever she likes HER PB is a Young Lady of Indian Descent so that's what she'll mostly run around looking like. She wears bright colours and is almost certainly in a different outfit every time you see her if she looks human/elvish. Quite possibly used to run around as a giant spider until Ungoliant slew the trees and gave everyone a spider phobia.
History: One of the Valar (that's your little G- gods), the Powers that sung the world into being, Vaire existed before time as one of the Ainur, the spirits created by Eru, the One (that's your Big G- God). Like all of them she has a 'domain' - in her case, she is The Weaver. She weaves the history of the world and hangs the tapestries in her husband Namo's halls. She is, essentially, some combination of the worst peeping tom in history, the papparazzi and your mom, because she sees it all. She dwells in Valinor with her husband and so far as I know has never actually been in Middle-earth physically. Or the spirit equivalent of physically, anyway, since she helped build it.
Personality: Vaire is very fond of the Children (ie Men, Hobbits, Dwarves & Elves, in no particular order), seeing as how it was either grow very fond of their antics or get really depressed about the good, bad and artistically questionable that she weaves. This also means she has particularly good blackmail on everyone in existence ever, and probably a sense of humour to go with it. She is utterly devoted to her husband Namo, and staunchly loyal. She probably considers Miriel something like a daughter, considering she spent centuries in the Halls weaving with her. She tends towards cheerful and bubbly, to balance out her husband's Doom and Gloom, but one who sees Everything cannot be lied to, and she WILL call your bluff. She's affectionate, and likes hugs and to do things with her hands, when she's incarnate, and even when she's not. She cares very deeply about the hurts of the world, but she might come off as cruel - seeing everything means that she's very fair, as she sees all the sides of every argument ever. Like her husband, she's also got a very good grasp of consequences, although Namo's domain is future, and her's is more past.
Abilities: I ASSUME SHE WILL BE POWER CAPPED but lets see
(1) Spirit being who wears a body as flesh - Timeless, Immortal in both the "does not age" AND the "technically cannot be killed sense" - you can kill her BODY, although presumably it would take a good bit of effort, but she can then go on to make a new one, hurting her spirit, considering she's basically a goddess/archangel would take someone/something of equivalent power level. IN GAME: One body. Vulnerable. Good thing she likes this one eh?
(2) the Valar can essentially "hear" the Song that made creation, and when Singing it can alter it to... pretty much do what they want. In Vaire's case, this is specifically related to Weaving - she can make clothes, tapestries, blankets, teddy bears, rope... Anything she can imagine, in any shade and cut and cloth and size. IN GAME: The Song is broken, thus creating new problems! She cannot make anything ex-nihilo. She needs to have something to work with to begin with, and she cannot make anything that does not already exist.
(3) Unfortunately the song is so discordant and weird right now that she can't hear what's going on anymore. She remembers what happened in the past but only in the past of Arda, and only her Arda.
(4) She also probably has whatever the timeless spirit being equivalent of a photographic memory is, to reproduce her tapestries - and her skill at making them is to the level of photorealism.
(5) She can probably do "magic" things like read your mind and patch up injuries and walk on water and transport vast distances simply by manipulation of the Song. IN GAME: SHE CAN TELEPORT... sorta... 2 days walking distance per day. By herself. THE REST REMAIN NERFED
(6) considering she helped build the world she probably has a supernatural appreciation of things like physics and biology and stuff...
(7) I assume being a spirit being wearing a flesh suit that she does not ACTUALLY need to do things like eat, breathe, and sleep, although she does all three because that's what you do when you have a body
Inventory: nada
Anything else: No really she almost certainly used to like hanging around as a giant spider, Tolkien calls her tapestries "storied webs"
