| [color=#FBEC5D]In Depth Appearance[/color] |
[indent]There's no doubt that Ceil was given looks from her heartbreaker father. With dark brown hair with added red highlights, she's a gorgeous, blossoming flower that can make many people smile, especially because of how carefree she comes across. Young and filled with exuberant expressions, she stands at 5'3", weighs 125 lbs, and her frame is relatively slender. Though, one can tell the days she eats more versus the days she only consumes fruit and a granola bar. Rumor has it that her beauty resides in her striking and colorful eyes. Some people think they are green, others see hazel, and then occasionally people bare witness to a dance of gold and amber in her orbs. She likes to keep the true nature of her eyes a mystery. There's one thing people do become certain of and that is, when she uses her powers, they glow thunderous violet. 

Regardless if she's aware or not, her undeniably alluring eyes, wide and vast like the skies her father rules, and her seemingly naive and happy-go-lucky demeanor are what draw men in, for better or for worse. She is the spitting image of her mother, with a face that makes her look a lot younger than what she is and an attitude that can be questioned as insane. It doesn't help that her playful personality makes people underestimate her and treat her like a child. When she gets angry or serious, her nose wrinkles up. Sometimes she's the cutest thing in the world, other times she aggressively sexy. Individuals have called her a tease before, even if she's simply being a loving friend. Most days she wears clear contacts due to her nearsightedness, but she does wear red glasses that bring out her fair, olive skin tone when she's far too lazy to put her contacts on. Her heart is on her sleeves and and it shows in her eyes, her face, and her actions. Truly, she personifies the bright, morning sky, but never forget who her father is, for Cecily can be a radiance in your life or a catastrophic storm causing you to get lost at sea.[/indent]

| [color=#FBEC5D]Clothing Style[/color] |
[indent]Conventional, comfortable, and a tad bit eccentric are terms that would best describe Ceil's wardrobe. She sports casual wear that emulates the fact that she doesn't really give a fuck what society finds acceptable or not. Most people put far too much thought into their outfits when she simply wants to mix shit up occasionally. Oddly enough, she makes outfits that shouldn't work, work, because her smile and painted confidence is what brings her ensembles together. Honestly, if she can, she would wear yoga pants, a t-shirt, a sweater, and have her hair up in a messy bun. Perfect for strenuous activity or to cuddle up against someone. This doesn't mean Ceil doesn't know how to be fashionable and dress 'hot as fuck'. On the contrary, when she is in the mood to go 'all out' she always surpasses people's expectations. Those are the days she puts far too much time and effort into every little piece of her look. She'll primarily do this when she wants to grab a guy's attention.[/indent]

[indent][color=a187be]✦[/color] Daydreams - a lot. Dazing out in classes or while she's alone resting.

[indent]The daughter of Zeus is a walking contradiction. Her personality is truly hard to pin point because she's all over the place and great at molding herself with different people (like a chameleon). She's a people pleaser through and through, putting their well being first before her own. Ceil is the type of person who will wake up late at night to your phone call and make sure she's there for you. If you need to see a friend ASAP, no problem. She'll find a way to meet you somewhere, even if that means she has to drop her own obligations. People say she has a wise mind like her father, but also harbors his carefree nature, which leads to her stumbling into dangerous situations. The one thing that she will never relate to when it comes to Zeus (or so she thinks) is his need to jump from lover to lover. Most people that do not know her have a hard time believing she's as loyal as Hera - even to levels where she'll go scary lengths for you.

From being a rather silly person, who enjoys life and comes off as a geeky dork, she can also be fairly intimate. Nearly all the bonds she makes reaches people's hearts because of how supportive she is and the mere fact that she listens, wholeheartedly. Her father knows this will take a toll on her, but she must learn from her mistakes and therefore, he refuses to warn her of her folly. There's only so much she can do for her loved ones. What about focusing on getting her shit together and becoming the leader that she's meant to be?

Due to her sheltered upbringing her mortal parent gave her (which Zeus didn't necessarily agree with but it was far too menial for him to deal with), Ceil never really learned where to draw the line with how she treats men. All those she brings in her life, she treats like family, which may come across as misleading intimacy. At school, her friends have called her a tease because of how 'friendly' she was and just look at who her father is (yeah, snap judgments at it's finest). She doesn't know how she does it, but all her guy friends, even if they're taken, start crushing on her. Her self worth isn't the best because her father unintentionally points out her flaws (constantly), his high and low expectations of her, her own paranoia, and ultimately just being in self denial. People tell her she is beautiful, but time after time, she convinces herself they're just saying it to make her feel better. Even with all the inner sadness she carries, she is a joy to be around with. Ceil is the girl that smiles and makes sure everyone is happy, but when it comes to dealing with her own issues, she's a hot mess, usually resorting to alcohol so she doesn't have to think about it (yet, it always does the opposite effect). It doesn't help that everyone thinks she holds a lot of father's negative traits. Her father is a canny, cavalier, and carefree man, but he's also the scumbag of the universe and the vainest god you'll ever meet. Don't get her wrong, she loves her father but let's be honest, he's not the greatest guy - far from it.[/indent][center][img]http://static1.squarespace.com/static/542f19f4e4b08a892c53d838/t/567f2e497086d78817b6343a/1451175499321/ANB_BrandAssets_ArrowDivider_RGB_Violet-08.png[/img][/center][center][img]http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdag1oRYOF1qispq9o1_500.gif[/img]

| [color=#FBEC5D]Background[/color] |
[indent]Conceived and raised in the ghetto of Bridgeport, Connecticut, Cecily's mother had Chinese, Dutch, and Polynesian descent, while her father was a god. Not just any god. [b]The[/b] King of gods. Her mother was rather young when she gave birth to her. It seemed like Zeus saw a beautiful woman and wooed her until he could give her a taste of his sweet nectar. Ceil's mother did have a thing for troublesome men. Who would have expected she'd carry the child of the icon of those men? Zeus found out about the pregnancy and hoped for a son, but at last, life was never ideal and his mistress gave him a daughter. To say he was disappointed was an understatement. 

The woman with hardly anything to her name could not afford to raise the child on her own so she begged Zeus to take the child, give his baby girl a life that she could not. Zeus had other plans in mind. Instead of taking in the sweet infant of his, who resembled her mother tremendously, he gave the woman a promise. He promised he'd watch over her from afar but would not make any contact with her until the demigod was ready. He gave his mistress an ultimatum, she would keep his child and raise her to his likeness, for he could only acknowledge strong leaders as his own, and in return he would give her food, shelter, and clothing to wear. He would provide her and his child stability. When the time came for him to take Cecily, he'd offer his mistress 'paradise'. 

That was not what the mother wanted to hear. She hated herself for letting another man, a GOD, take advantage of her and give her no choice in her own life, but she knew that anything with his blood would be precious to him. No one says no to Zeus, especially someone of her level. However, instead of teaching her daughter everything about her father (instead of painting him in a brilliant light), Ceil's mother expanded the little one's mind, making her far more open minded to possibilities. She believed even a kind and forgiving person could be a grand ruler. To her benefit, Zeus was a man with many distractions and allowed his mistress to shelter the girl and mold her to a image she deemed fit. Without a doubt, this child would be conflicted when it came to being the two people her parents wanted her to be and finding herself. Her explorations was limited to school and books. 

Attending a grade school filled with mortals was not the most pleasant experiences for Cecily, since she was bullied for many different reasons. The fact that she allowed herself to get bullied furthered Zeus' disappointment and lack of faith in her capabilities of following his footsteps. Her mother transferred her to a religious middle school and then put her in an all girls' highschool, where her daughter could be herself and not be distracted by the unrefined kids and the savage-like men. This decision led to Cecily being a rather hopeless romantic, where she drowned herself in romance everything. The best romances were the ones that seemed so hard to achieve. Perhaps one day, she would find a transcendental love. A love that overcame all obstacles, no matter how much misery life threw at them.

One day, when she was walking home, a boy took notice of the beautiful demi god. That was the moment she realized that boys liked her, especially when he decided to pursue her. His intentions were purely based on her nativity or so that's what Cecily wanted him to believe. She wasn't dumb but it seemed like others liked her when she acted a certain way, most guys she met like oblivious and innocent girls, her close girl friends like someone that carried more confidence than them, and her father wanted someone who achieved, won, and led. Growing up and watching your main role model get used and abused by men gave Ceil some preparation for the darkness of the world, but that didn't stop her from wanting to feel loved. Unfortunately, like her mother, her luck with men sucked, but that is a story for later. 

On her 16th birthday, while she walked the grounds of her high school, Zeus noticed that his daughter was getting praised for her achievements but also that her powers were getting out of hand - it was time to teach her how to control what he gave her. He offered her an opportunity of her life, or well, she didn't really have a choice in the matter. He told her she was going to transfer to Olympus Academy (which unlike mortal school, started at the age of 16). Although her relationship with her father was distant, he having visited her a couple of times in her childhood, constantly making her feel less sufficient (unknowingly), Ceil felt that this was her chance to make him happy, to make him proud. Her mother was against it because once again, Zeus would win - Zeus always won, but Cecily needed to do this. She needed a change and... she needed her father to look at her with love. You can say, the Merrick girl was and still is searching for her father's love in other men. None of them being able to handle who she was - all jumping ship before it got too deep. But now, at Olympus, she can show him that she is his daughter and that she will go the distance to achieve his will - sorta, it's a work in progress. Now that she is 21, still battling her anxiety, she plans to make major leaps so her father truly acknowledges her as his daughter and not some child who lets people and her powers get the best of her.

| [color=#FBEC5D]Godly Parent[/color] |
[indent]Zeus, the presiding deity of the universe, ruler of the skies and the earth. He is the god of all natural phenomena on the sky and is the personification of the laws of nature. The ruler of the state and the father of gods and men.[/indent]

| [color=#FBEC5D]Relationship With Godly Parent[/color] |
[indent]Cecily never feels good enough for her father and along with the constant sharp words he gives her to add to her poor self esteem, he is a proud man and only expects greatness. He expects so much of her, yet shows very little in return. He's acknowledges her when she brings home a medal, but when she doesn't give him anything to boast about... his cold stare brings shivers up her spine.[/indent]

| [color=#FBEC5D]Godly Abilities[/color] |
[indent]Strongest ability:
[indent][color=#FBEC5D]Electrokinesis[/color] - The ability to mentally and/or physically manipulate and control electric currents and static electricity. Ceil can summon lightning, electricity, or even make a static shock powerful. She can electrify her weapons in order to make it more effective, causing a high damage attack. She is given resistance to electricity (she can still hurt, but it just takes a lot to kill her by what's she's made of).
[i]Extra:[/i] She has yet to call to the skies and bring lightning down on her foes. She did do it once, when she was irrationally angry but... that doesn't count.[/indent] 
The ability she is currently practicing:
[indent][color=#FBEC5D]Aerokinesis[/color] - The elemental ability to create and control and manipulate the air and wind in a variety of offensive or defensive ways.[/indent] 
Weakest ability:
[indent][color=#FBEC5D]Atmoskinesis[/color] - Weather manipulation, where one can control and manipulate the various forms and aspects of the weather itself.[/indent][/indent]
[indent]Flaw:
[indent]Power of strength is influenced by her emotion, her focus, and willingness to take a risk.
Her insecurities affect her genetic pattern, which makes her powers heavily sporadic and dangerous. [/indent][/indent][/hider]

| [color=coral]In Depth Appearance[/color] |
[indent]Standing at 5'4" and weighing 110 pounds, Lissie has a slim built and is as free spirited as they come. Her hair is platinum blonde and rarely up, since she likes her long locks when they're dancing with the wind. Occasionally, when she is in the mood, since [i]everything[/i] depends on her mood, she will put her hair up for funsies (not because she's trying to impress someone). Her eyes are a gorgeous baby blue with a hint of light green, depending on the lighting.

When staring at her, one would not think she's the daughter of Hecate, for Lissie comes across as far more innocent and angelic-like. Most people forget one of Hecate's titles are: Mother of Angels. But look-wise, everyone would presume the Goddess of the Moon would have a child of dark hair. Lissie's adopted mother would even 'doll' her up because of how big her eyes were and how her skin resembled that of porcelain. The young girl's mortal father died when she was only a child and although she never physically met her godly parent, Lissie knows Hecate is watching over her. Without a doubt, her godly mother treasures her precious little dove. If it wasn't for her mother, she wouldn't have received mysterious parcels with items she holds dear to her to this day.

Her attitude is that of a playful, vibrant child who just wants to enjoy herself, while harnessing her abilities and that shows in her appearance. Rarely do you see her and think something is wrong since she's full of brightness beyond anyone else - always smiling, laughing, and warming others hearts just by being herself.[/indent]

| [color=coral]Clothing Style[/color] |
[indent]Being raised by various different types of people, Lissie has obtained a couple of distinct clothing styles, Bohemian chic and sophisticated high-class. Her second family consisted of Gypsies and thieves, while her third family was formal, wealthy, and let a monotheistic religion influence their lives heavily - even though Lissie was living proof that the Greek gods and goddesses existed. She prefers the color palettes of light and dark. A fair amount of her summer dresses are lighter in shade while her clothes provided by her religious family consist of black. Both suit her in her opinion, since she has distinct features that these colors bring out. When she discovered that one of her parents was Hecate, the goddess of Witchcraft, Lissie took it upon herself to wear darker clothes and truly represent her godly mother. With that being said, she will wear her flowing dresses when she's simply enjoying herself and the nature around her - especially since those clothes are far more comfortable than some of her more conservative outfits. Hell, she's changed outside in the woods from one outfit to the next just so she can walk barefoot in the mud and dance around a bonfire.[/indent][center][img]http://s5.picofile.com/file/8128264976/Post_Divider.png[/img]

[indent]In an ideal world, maybe Felicity would be normal. Maybe she wouldn't have experienced what she did and maybe she wouldn't have had a life filled with struggle - but life was never ideal. And she was okay with that. Between the years of 14 to 16, Lissie got in a potion brewing accident that did a lot more damage than she truly realizes. It doesn't help that her familiar Ike has not told her that some days she just isn't the same Lissie. Magic can lead to dangerous things especially when you do not have a mentor to teach you half the shit you're doing. This accident led to Lissie having an alter ego (or what we call today, multiple personalities disorder). She only has two and honestly, she doesn't know which one she is more like. Her [color=silver][b]Aurora[/b][/color] side or her [color=black][b]Neomah[/b][/color] side. Well, she doesn't even know she comes across as two different people. Somewhere in her brain shuts off when Neomah is triggered and whether or not she remembers what is going on, is beyond her. Aurora is her kinder, softer side. The young girl who is playful and just wants to embrace life to the fullest, while Neomah is a creepier, less forgiving side. She becomes a woman, who would go lengths to achieve what she desires - not caring if she puts others in harm's way. Honestly, Felicity can't say, because at the end of the day she is just Lissie and has no idea she has two personalities battling in her inside. Her angel and her demon. It's hard to tell those two sides apart if you're not close to her. Neomah isn't dumb and knows how to put on an act, so it's noticing the faint differences that may help others in the long run.

| [color=coral]Background[/color] |
[indent]Change is inevitable. Change is something we must experience and accept, for it is important for us to release the past, those things that are hindering our growth, and to accept change. Felicity has had time to read in abundance about her mother, who encouraged her people to let go of what was familiar and to travel into the scary places of one's soul. To say Lissie didn't have a sad, unfortunate life, would be a lie, for most people would not want to continue after experiencing what she went through - but because of her journey, which was never an easy one, she's grown spiritually and feels more in tuned with Hecate. 

[center]The fates giveth and taketh away.[/center] 
[hider=Viewer Discretion Advised]Krasimir Dimitrov, a good man, with Bulgarian descent was a survivor of the Bosnian genocide. Do you know how it feels for a peaceful country to descend into an inescapable cage of violence, and so unexpectedly? In Southeastern Europe, Yogoslavia thrived off of Communism until it collapsed in 1991. Krasimir resided in Bulgaria at the time, which was filled with different ethnic groups who've spent many years, since the days of Rome, killing each other. Once the dictator passed on, all the factions (Serbs, Croats, and Bosniaks) turned on each other. Krasimir was simply a man with blood that many did not like. The moment things fell apart - nowhere was safe. You could be killed by a life long neighbor (who perhaps, you thought was a friend). It didn't help that the Serbs dominated the police force. Let's just say many Muslims and Croats were sent to death camps and you know where that leads to... 

Serbs butchered everyone who wasn't of their kind and the camps led to the massacre of well over 10,000 people (regardless of age or gender). While the Holocaust was done by German soldiers and policemen, more often than not the men were strangers, but the Bosnian genocide was committed by neighbors and coworkers. Sadly, as things go, the bad guys got away with murder and the people who lost so much, just wanted to forget. They [i]needed[/i] to forget.

Krasimir somehow survived and found hope in Hecate. He was in a dark place and lost all of his dear loved ones including his wife and children. How was he a guardian of his household if he let his entire family die? He begged for his life to end. He wanted to crush his body and lungs with a rock while laying in the nearby river, squeezing the very breath out of him while being filled with a rush of water. Before he got the chance to, the beautiful Hecate appeared before him. Stories said she was old and horrendous, yet here she was standing before him - fair as ever (and immensely mysterious). She saw in him dedication, heart, and heart-wrenching pain. She saw his need for flaming torches during his cold, lonely nights. The gods and goddesses could not control humanity, they can only see what is to come. He learned from this incomprehensible being that this was only a transition in his life, which would help him grow to be a better man. Within time, while he moved to Macedonia, she made a true and devout follower out of him and in return, he gave her a daughter. 

He named his healthy child Felicity, or great happiness, for he hoped this child would fill his empty void in his life and she did. The bright bundle of joy, for four beautiful years, gave her father a reason to live. To this day, Felicity still remembers the lullabies her father use to sing to her. He spent those years reading to her books about her mother, so that his daughter would know who provided both of them a chance for happiness. Along with the pure bliss of being a father once more, he gained a yearning to see Hecate again but no matter how much he called her - she never returned. As long as he had his beautiful daughter, Krasimir would not let sadness or fear rule his life. That was until one night, a group of people ambushed his home. It seemed that the remnants of the genocide and his past followed him to his new home. 

Quickly, he hid her under the floor board of the bedroom which had a peephole on it. He told her, "[b][color=f26522]Don't you dear say a word[/color][/b]" and she [b]wondered[/b] what was going on. She [b]heard[/b] the rushing of men with heavy boots and the loud roar exiting their lips. What they were saying... she didn't understand. It was fast. Too fast. She [b]listened[/b] to her father being forced to kneel down and him pleading for them to spare him. His hands rose up - surrendering and offering to give them whatever they wanted. She [b]saw[/b] the gun move toward his head and then... and then.. her eyes widened as he dropped over the peephole and blood dripped down. Covering her mouth, her blue eyes welling up, her father's blood dripping on her face, and her stomach churning on the inside, she could not let a scream out. Felicity couldn't let anything out. 

From this day on, she would be known as a mute.

After the execution of Felicity's father, the next morning friends of her father came to visit and found something they didn't expect. They found death. As they stared at Krasimir's dead body laying lifeless on the ground, they heard a faint knock from under him. There they rescued the daughter (allowing her to take her father's books with her) and cared for her as much as they could. Unfortunately, this family were a couple of gypsies and too were hated by many, so their resources were limited. It didn't help that they weren't financially stable, especially with the economic problems happening around them. During her short time with this family, she gained a Bohemian attitude and was able to explore her birthright abilities (since they encouraged her to learn). But her time with them was short lived since providing for an extra mouth became harder and harder for her second family each day. Rather than let her suffer, they made the decision to put her in the care of an Orphanage. Shortly after they left her in the care of new strangers, the Orphanage received a phone call from a family in the USA that described a child with distinct features that they were wondering if they had. Felicity fit what they wanted perfectly - how coincidental. When the family saw a picture of her, they thought that God had blessed them with an angel and they paid for her to come to America near immediately.  

She was quickly adopted by Mormons in Utah that had the surname of Underwood. They were staunchly religious and constantly pressured her into their beliefs. Mrs. Underwood was going to burn her father's books and almost did before the fire magically dissipated. Recovering one of her prized treasures, she was thankful she saved most of it and hid it away from the evil people that was her third family. Along with demanding her to draw for them, since they discovered Felicity had a great talent on her hands, she was put through serious abuse (primarily sexual since they didn't want to ruin her beautiful face). Behind her family's back, Lissie received mysterious parcels from her window side and even befriended a raven she named Isaac or "Ike" for short. Having no idea that the raven was her familiar, her mouth dropped when she heard he could talk. A talking bird?! No way! A couple months after her 14th birthday, her Mormon father decided he was going to marry her off to a man in his 40s and lucky for him, she could not verbally disagree. She couldn't say a thing and if she gave him "that look" he would put her in her place. She decided to flee the next morning taking anything and everything she could. 

At night, Will-o'-the-wisps would appear and lead her somewhere. Knowing her mother, she didn't question the occurrence. Instead, she followed it and the ghastly lights led her to an abandoned warehouse she would spend the next two years practicing her witchcraft in and learning basic survival skills in the nearby town (selling her drawings for money so she could eat and other little things). A lot of her practice has been on public property but she'd like to believe she's found her specialties in witchcraft. They're raw and need a lot of work, but at least she has a good idea of what she likes to do. It also helped that the Parcels continued to come (and find her). Her abandoned warehouse turned into her own study that no one visited because they believed the building to be haunted. 

There was one night she had an accident with potion brewing... after that day, she felt quite different, like not all days she was fully present, you know? Felicity brushed off the accident and continued to teach herself dark magic - having no idea she created something in her that was beyond her control. 

When she turned 16th, Ike told her that she should consider going to Olympus Academy. There was only so much she would be able to teach herself. What did she have to lose? No one would suspect she was homeless since she had enough clothes to give off the idea that she came from a fairly wealthy family. This could be her chance to make her mother proud and she was going to... there was no holding back. It was time to accept this new change and go with the winds of life! To Olympus Academy and beyond!

| [color=coral]Godly Parent[/color] |
[indent]Hecate, the goddess of magic, crossroads, witchcraft, the night, moon, ghosts and necromancy. Known for three paths: guardian of the household, protectress of everything newly born, and the goddess of witchcraft. The Moon Goddess, with kingdoms three-fold: the earth, sea, and sky. Protector of shepherds and sailors. Queen of the Night, both honored and feared as the protectress of the oppressed and those who lived "on the edge". Zeus respects her and Hades treats her as an honored guest when she visits the Underworld. She reminds us of the importance of change. 
[/indent]

| [color=coral]Relationship With Godly Parent[/color] |
[indent]Lissie has never met her mother but she is always being watched and taken care of. Occasionally, she receives parcels. She believes this is her mother making her ready for her and for her to become the holder of her own life. By the time she meets her mother, Lissie hopes she is ready and strong enough for her, becoming the daughter Hecate always wanted. 
[/indent]

| [color=coral]Godly Abilities[/color] |
[indent][i]Please refer to [color=662d91][b]Alexander Reisender's[/b][/color] Character to see the Common Lore of being a Witch or Warlock of Hecate.[/i]

[center][u]Felicity's Magical Focuses & Specialties[/u]
[i]Her magic is strongest at Night[/i][/center]
Minor Birthright Abilities
[indent][color=coral]Will-o'-the-wisp:[/color] Difficulty level - Medium. The conjuration of atmospheric ghost light, which can lead travelers to safe passage (or not). Truly depends on where Lissie wants to direct people.

[color=coral]Potioncraft:[/color] Difficulty level - Hard (requires constant studying). Affinity for an extensive knowledge of "Green Magic", including conventional herbalism, sophisticated botanical science, and potion brewing.

[color=coral]Summon Familiar:[/color] Difficulty level - Easy. She can call upon her animal, gifted by her mother, who dual roles as her guide and friend.[/indent] 
Advanced Birthright Abilities 
[indent][color=coral]Daughter of Mist:[/color] Difficulty level - Expert. Allowing mist to surround her, which allows her to create illusions, false memories, make monsters appear as something else, provide a hidden safe haven and places to hide, and to disguise people. The mist is magical, yet dangerous - being trapped in it for too long will cause one to forget themselves.

[color=coral]Vitalum Vitalis:[/color] Difficulty level - Hard. The balancing of the scales between one life force and another. She can transfer her own life force to dead or nearly dead in order to heal them. Lissie may faint. She can also drain life force to give herself more vitality but she would only do that if she must.[/indent]
Favored Practice - Medium Level (Easiest discipline because of how much she draws) - [color=coral][i][b]My pencil is my wand[/b][/i].[/color]
[indent][color=coral]Illustrated Reality:[/color] The more Lissie understands beings, people, and other things, the better her drawings will appear. With her pad and pencils given to her by her mother, she can draw into existence creatures, objects, and people.

[indent][color=coral]Magical Pencils:[/color] Each pencil is capable of different things. The "[color=coral]Animator[/color]" bringing things to life, "[color=coral]Permanence[/color]" for permanent note-taking (to reflect whatever her photographic memory can think of) but it's also hard to destroy the drawing once it's on paper (and complete). If the paper is destroyed, the image will grab a hold of something else - may it be another paper, a wall, or even a person. She also has ones she has yet to explore like "[color=coral]Mirror Image[/color]" pencil which is said she can send an image of the landscape she draws to someone. This may help if she were to get lost and couldn't find her way back home. 

[color=coral]Magical Chalk:[/color] She has three main ones: "[color=coral]Traveling Study[/color]", "[color=coral]Knife[/color]", and "[color=coral]Transmutation[/color]". One that can conjure up the door to her art studio, another one that cuts through things when she draws a complete shape, and another one that summons a portal that looks like a hole that leads to a black abyss. She has yet to take the chance to see where it leads.[/indent][/indent]
Her weakest and rawest ability: 
[indent][color=coral]Marionette Rituals - Dollmaking and Puppetry:[/color] In terms of making voodoo dolls, she needs a piece of the person she wants to put harm to - hair is usually the easiest means. However, one doesn't only have to put harm to dolls, she can provide them with good luck by enchanting the doll with spellcraft. Puppetry is an advance form of her doll making where she can influence people, both physically and mentally. However, to go about this ritual an animal such as a spider or a frog (that she has bonded over - doesn't necessarily have to be her familiar) must enter the other person's throat. That gives her more power to influence said person. 

To pursue the Marionette Rituals, you must make a doll of yourself and keep it safe. The doll is your contract to partake in the dark magic and becomes an extension of yourself - if it is harmed, you are harmed; However, if it is destroyed, you won't be killed but you will no longer be the same either. Most people are too afraid to find out what would happen once their doll is gone. Some abilities: You are able to see through the doll's eyes and even move the doll around using mental willpower.
