I kind of like the idea of keeping her mute, at least for now. It would give her a dynamic that no other character we have has...but it's up to you lolHow powerful is Ariel? Obviously she knows a bit about magic, where would you say her skill level is at?

She can always steal a voice at some point, which will be fun to bring about. I don't see her being particularly powerful, since her initial power resided in her voice and without that she'll be a lesser witch, especially since otherwise she's not a strong, natural-born witch but is rather driven more by determination. Perhaps start her out fairly weak and have her progress, but at her peak I don't think I'd want anything especially powerful. 1-10, peaking at maybe 7?
