Name: Korinna
Species: Nike, winged goddess of speed, strength, and victory personified
Gender: Female
Alignment: Dream
Current Phase: Small Sprite
Residence: Central Somnum's nursery

Power: Enhanced speed: With a moment's concentration and sometimes a touch of her hand, Korinna can provide a brief speed boost to herself, other sprites, animals, or vehicles. The duration and extent of the speed boost increase as she improves control of her power.

Other possibilities:
* summoning horses/chariots (since Nike served as a charioteer to Zeus during the Titanomachy)
* celebratory endorphin rush
* levitation of other sprites/items

<< Definitely open to other suggestions! >>

Personality:

work in progress (rewriting to get rid of internal inconsistencies ._.)...

Dreamcasting Style:

Korinna wants to see her Dreamers find the courage and will to succeed in their ambitions, really she does! That said, this stern little taskmaster also expects them to earn their victories. No cakewalks for her (un?)lucky Dreamers.

In her dreamcasting, the road to victory is paved with challenging (perhaps even nightmarishly challenging *shifty eyes*) obstacles to start with, but the final triumph and the rewards that follow make it all worthwhile. At least, that's the effect she's aiming for. Might take her a while to find the right balance, alas. It simply doesn't do to scare people off trying altogether, nor to end a dream on an anti-climactic note.

Future Plans:
* Even as a small sprite, Korinna will be happy to try her hand at running competitions and events. Her initial focus will be sports and other tests of physical skill, but she'll branch out as time goes on.
* I could see her working for a while in the postal service, where she'll no doubt try to make a race out of every delivery run.

Appearance:
I'd like for Korinna to have wings, and I'm happy to offer the rest to artist's choice. For further inspiration, here are some items associated with Nike in sculpture, coinage, and verse:
- a palm branch
- a chariot
- a wreath or sash for a battlefield victor
- a libation bowl and cup
- an incense burner
- a lyre for celebratory songs
Feel free to incorporate any or none of these items!
