Akherontis
If you are from Nordic folklore, that would make you either one of the Disir or the Alfar. Are you a Norn, a Valkyrie or a Fylgia? Or are you one of the Faerie Folk? The closest Scandinavian equivalent to a Wood Nymph off the top of my head would be a Huldra, or to a Water Nymph; a Nix.

A nymph, by my rather loose definition is a minor nature goddess.

I'm one of the Vaettir. I could go into detail about the 'races' in the Vaettir, but it's quite complicated.

It is not complicated, though, it's just vague. It's like saying you're a Spirit, without specifying what kind. Vaettir's the Norse version of the word Wight, it's the catch-all term for spirits in general. I mean, the Vaettirfolk are divided into the Aesir, the Vanir, the Disir, the Jotnar, the Trolls, the Alfar, the Svartalfar/Dvuergar, the Landvaettir and the Sjovaettir. But I really don't think there's an exact equivalent to Greek Nymphai, unless you include the aforementioned subbreeds.

You mean the one I'm wearing now, or the one with the red eyes?

Actually, now that I think about it, the red ones do look better. neutral

The red eyes, YES! THAT'S IT!

Okay, I guess you're right. Sorry about that. sweatdrop
The reason I said that before was that I thought that sometimes exaggeration is kinda tough to work while trying to get the true essence of a Greek god (imo).

But in this case, it works. wink
