[indent][indent]
[color=DAA520]Key spells[/color]
[list][*] Teleportation- For now Clara can teleport up to 100ft at the blink of an eye. She can also (attempt) to teleport to different places, the further away she is from the target the less forgiving the spell is amidst distractions and detail mistakes. If she knows the place extremely well or has a circle set up she's also more likely to succeed
[*] Conjure elements- Clara can call a strike of an elemental magic to hit her target like a lightning bolt.
[*] Summon animals- Clara can summon a small group of animals to surround her. They tend to be inclined to follow her commands... she thinks. Too bad she can't understand them[/list][/indent][/indent]

[color=DAA520][b]Personality:[/b][/color]
Clara is a extremely energetic, she seems to be constantly bouncing from one thing to another, unable to keep her mind or body still. She seems to always have a couple of hyperfixations at anytime that she can and will spout random facts about, sometimes and not so appropriate times. She is naturally a very curious and inquisitive person but she doesn't quite understand social cues often leading her to step over boundaries and create awkward situations. Clara does have a big heart and cares a lot for the people around her.

Clara seems to still have a childlike naivety and whimsy to her that may lead to many to believe she's simple-minded but Clara is actually very intelligent, just not so much wise. She can be rather impulsive and lacks a lot of awareness, often walking herself into a lot of trouble. She is rather eccentric, she genuinely doesn't care how she's perceived so will often make bold choices without a care. She's not all that sensitive but it's hard to know if she genuinely isn't bothered by anything or doesn't full process the meanings behind some insults. Clara is also very creative; her outlets lie in many forms she's picked up over the years but the main ones she's kept up with is writing and playing songs on her guitar and painting.
 
[color=DAA520][b]History/Bio:[/b][/color]
Although Clara's maternal family had been in Tanner for many generations they were never really a prominent family. While they were ever-present in the coven and their doings they were never in the spotlight or given much pull over the coven, and that's just how they liked it. After a struggle to conceive Pheobe and Jacob were over the moon to welcome Clara into the world.

From her most formative years Clara was an extremely active child. She seemed to constantly have pools of energy, more so than many of her peers, however, she didn't utter a word before 5 years old. She also tended to keep mainly to herself in the playground, seeming to prefer her own company most of the time. As she got older that disinterest seemed to turn more into a struggle to make friends as she seemed to be unable to work out unspoken boundaries and social cues. Clara learnt to be content in her loneliness at this time, part of her was never really bothered by it, she was often wrapped up in her latest fixation. She jumped from one thing to another like a 'hobbies dolphin' as her mother would put it.

Clara really struggled in school. Although part of her enjoyed learning she struggled to stay on task, her mind often getting distracted and the classroom environment often made her overwhelmed. She was very quickly singled out as a kid who needed help in school, that help often coming in the form of easier worksheets and more input from her teacher. ll the while, her younger sister was constantly top of her class. All this left Clara feeling like she was stupid which led to her slacking off on her studies and rinse and repeat. That all changed when Clara's power started coming in.

Clara was 15 when she first exhibited signs of her powers, namely her illusion magic. She became absolutely enthralled by her magic, not so much on strengthening it but on the [i]how[/i] it works. Clara spent hours and hours into researching amd questioning in an attempt to understand it. In this she found not only did she know more than she thought but she actually [i]enjoyed[/i] studying. 

After Sophomore year Clara dropped out of school and worked in her family's game shop until she was 18. She took a couple of remedial courses to get into college and went on to study a bachelor of science majoring in human biology in attempt to understand how magic works. Unlike school, Clara excelled greatly in college as she had more freedom over her study. After finishing college Clara returned to working the game shop, taking occasional trips to other covens to network amd learn more of what they know.
