Heimdall is one of the main protagonists in Water Demons.
She is the current Vicereine of the pegasi clan, and a hybrid, from a unicorn father and a pegasus mother.

Appearance

_____________________________


Heimdall had a partially colored horn during adolescence.

As a hybrid, Heimdall mixes traits from both her parents' species. However, she seems to have taken more from the unicorn side, with her slender body, her white fur, long ears and tail, and obviously the red horn on her snout. She has feathers growing in her fur and base tail, and a little feathered crest on her forehead.
Her wings are big, with the characteristic three segments of the pegasi. She also has the typical black eyes of a pegasus, with yellowish pupils.

Personality

_____________________________


Heimdall is a rather calm and reserved mare; she doesn't express her feelings too much, as she was told to. Her high rank in the pegasi clan is a big weight on her shoulders, especially with all the expectations that come with it.

Even if she doesn't want to disappoint and mostly follow her mother's will, Heimdall doesn't seem to agree with everything her mother says, particularly on the subject of demons.

The Vicereine appears sad most of the time, and seems to be very impacted by the loss of her father, and the disappearance of unicorns.

Relationships

_____________________________


The Enchantress
As a daughter, Heimdall does what her mother says. However, she doesn't seem to fully agree with her mother on the subject of demons, even though she mostly does what the Enchantress expects from her.

Meteora
Heimdall enjoys the company of her pegasus cousin Meteora, with whom she can take a break from her Vicereine role. He often checks on her and tries to cheer her up, knowing the difficulties of his beloved cousin.

Mémoire
Heimdall is haunted by the presence of Mémoire, who appears as the manifestation of her fears and insecurities, similarly to Kiersten's mind monster. This entity often manifests during her moments of doubt, exacerbating her internal struggles. Even if the noctule is not alive anymore, he lives on in Heimdall's mind and memory.

Heimdall was born in the clan, from the union of a pegasus mare, the Enchantress, and a unicorn stallion, the Viceroy Vif-Argent. Since birth, her life was planned, as she was destined to become the next Vicereine of the clan. Due to unicorns' disappearance, she lost her father at a very young age and was raised by her mother, who raised her to do exactly what she wanted. It is currently unknown how Heimdall survived the extinction.
Since her first appearance in the story, Heimdall questions her mother's radical choices, especially regarding demons. She still decided to spare the noctule litter that her cousin Meteora found, even if it meant disobeying her mother.

It is later revealed that Heimdall is quite scared of adult noctules, as she had a traumatic experience with one when she was younger - this particular noctule tried to lure her out of the Nest by using her deceased father's voice. This has led Heimdall to be very wary of noctules - even if she still decided to spare the fawns.
After the discovery of a pegasus' body killed by Kiersten, Heimdall is forced by her mother to speak to the whole clan, and has to follow the majority's opinion on demons. She reluctantly agrees to make the demons pay for this, but it seems that this is not what she truly wants. A conversation with her cousin, Meteora, shows that she is quite lost about what she has to think about.

Later on, Heimdall confronts the Enchantress one more time on the subject of demons, only to be told the same thing over again. After wandering a bit in the Nest alone, she experiences a traumatic vision of the noctule who attacked her as a child - he is still haunting her, even in death, manifesting her fear of the future and the weight of her responsibilities.
