[b]28 | Emily Gwendolyn Reed | She/Her [/b][hr][i]"Don't worry about where I came from; worry that I'm right here."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The unofficial and self-proclaimed "fourth" in command was a former friend of Ashley, Daisy, and Auri. Emily was initially a shy and unconfident girl who was used to getting trampled all over until someone pushed her a bit too far, and she finally decided to work on herself. She wanted to grow a backbone and lash out at all the people she felt were taking advantage of her, and unfortunately, she was unsure of where to stop. So she became a nasty, over-the-top queen bitch of the school that, sadly, lacked the smarts to back it up. 

When the Stygian Snake went on its rampage through St. Portwell, Emily was nearly [i]killed[/i], but Britney Williams saved her. She was mysteriously adjoined to an Apparition named Babylon the Great. Emily joined the Sycamore Tree Coven and spent most of the fight against the Stygian Snake trying to make herself the leader, sometimes over-stopping the damn thing. However, she still assisted in the battle against the Stygian Snake, and afterward, she found out that Britney forcibly adjoined Babylon to her to use her as a meatshield. She was [i]not[/i] happy about that and spent most of her time in the Sycamore Tree Coven antagonizing the other members (primarily Samantha and Britney), and was a[i] huge[/i] part of why many members of the group left. Soon, despite her strength, Emily was voted out of the Coven and could not be happier.

Emily was happy to hear those sluts broke up, but she got the idea to form her [i]own[/i] Coven. As Emily entered college, she found a group of other Paranormal women and formed the 8th Street Coven, named after the street under which they formed [i]their[/i] pact. Initially, Emily wanted to learn more about magic so she could learn what magic could do for her. Still, Emily intends to declare herself the ruler of St. Portwell's magical underworld. Thus, she has been directing her little cult to go around and steal artifacts from whoever she can and enthrall any Apparitions she could find.

Her arch-nemesis is the Spring Maiden of the Greenwood Coven.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Adjoined - [i]Hellfire.[/i] 
[indent]The abstraction of Babylon the Great that Emily uses by proxy, the ability to summon hot flames in the environment. Emily can either generate these flames out of her body or spawn them in the environment - as it's a technique for Emily to create a wave of fire. These flames are [i]far[/i] hotter than average, bright red, infused with the screaming faces of Babylon's victims. Emily is entirely immune to the negative effects of heat, and she can teleport anywhere in sight.[/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]An ancient Apparition famous throughout the All-verse due to her... antics. Initially, in a separate universe, there was a town so overtaken by greed, corruption, lust, and sin that a pastor desperately sought a reason for it all. That reason came in the form of Babylon the Great, who made the situation in the town [i]worse[/i], but she was ultimately teleported to another universe before she could do more damage. 

Babylon has destroyed universes, enslaved them, and [i]worse[/i]; however, for every time that she succeeded, there has been an equal amount of times she was foiled. Recently, she was sealed, but Britney Williams released her so she could be adjoined with Emily G. Reed to defeat the Stygian Snake. However, after the Snake's defeat, neither wanted to be separated from the other, and the two have been bonded. Usually, Babylon remains inside of Emily, but she appears and chats when the moment is right.[/indent]

[/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The boisterous and bubbly woman serves as the second-in-command of the 8th Street Coven but acts more as the enforcer and bodyguard for the Reed sisters. As a child, Vashti encountered a benign apparition that left her One-Eye-Open and obsessed with the world of the Paranormal, her ramblings about magic and seeing spirits alienating her from many of her peers. However, when the Stygian Snake arrived, all her previous talk drew the attention of a mysterious person who offered Vashti the gift of magic if they would join the fights against the Stygian Snake. Vashti accepted, but the offer was a trick, cursing her with an affliction that made her appear monstrous, behave irrationally, and occasionally transform into a wild and uncontrollable reptilian Apparition obsessed with proving itself to be the apex predator known as the Leviathan whenever she was threatened.

While Vashti tried to help the Coven, she was often more dangerous to the group than anything. The Coven’s magical expert, Britney Williams,  was able to help Vashti try to control the Leviathan long enough for her to assist in the final fight. However, after the Stygian Snake was defeated, Britney admitted to cursing Vashti and forcibly adjoining Emily to an Apparition. Thanks to this, Vashti and Emily would form a friendship primarily fueled by their mutual hatred of Britney. While the Coven could seal the Leviathan and break Vashti’s curse, she left regardless when Emily was voted out, having spurned most of the members against her anyway due to joining in with Emily’s toxicity.

Eventually, the two would form the 8th Street Coven. Although Vashti had first hoped that their Coven would focus on learning about magic to help others who'd gone through similar experiences like Emily and herself, it's impossible to deny that there was still a lingering hunger to be at the top of the food chain buried inside her. In the end, Vashti had no complaints when the goal of the 8th Street Coven shifted towards conquest. She seems invigorated by the idea, feverishly encouraging confrontation with the other organizations.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Agent - [i]The Leviathan's Veil.[/i]
[indent]The shawl Vashti used to hide her monstrous appearance when the Leviathan cursed her and ultimately served as the Apparition’s prison. At first glance, the Veil seems to allow Vashti to generate a localized storm that follows above them and grows in intensity over time. Depending on the local weather, this starts with little more than a slight drizzle or a few flurries of snow and eventually escalates to an intense thunderstorm with hurricane winds and flash flooding or a freezing blizzard with whiteout conditions. However, as the storm is active, Vashti gains the viciousness and brutality of the Leviathan without being cursed to transform into the creature. Her nails and teeth can tear through metal, punch and kick through concrete,  and her skin is essentially body armor, allowing her to shrug off most mundane and even some magical attacks. Vashti’s movement is unimpeded by her storm. She is immune to the elements generated by it, allowing her to easily see through the poor visibility caused by a prolonged downpour or slide through the snow.  [/indent]

[b]25 | Jacqueline Mackenzie Reed |  She/Her[/b][hr][i]Take it easy! I got all the answers!"[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The beloved younger sister of Emily G. Reed and her twin sister, Miranda Reed, are (together) the third-in-command of the 8th Street Coven. Jacqueline is the opposite of her sister, Miranda, where Miranda is the girly of the two; she is more adventurous and fearless (with a hint of brutality). Jacqueline grew up the more tomboyish of the two and loved exploring St. Portwell's woods, which she claims crafted her into the person she is today. While the girl is ruthless, she has a deep reverence for nature and the outdoors (which makes her a bit more sympathetic towards 8th Street's rival, Greenwood) - and is the ultimate free spirit. She would do anything to maintain her independence above all else. 

However, much like her sister, she is a loving and compassionate person who, deep down, reveres the rest of the 8th Street Coven as sisters and loves each one. This hidden compassion leads Jacqueline (alongside Miranda) to attempt to quell her older sister's brutality and try to keep 8th Street on the straight and narrow. She doesn't want to see them get hurt or arrested if (or when) they finally go too far. Jacqueline is a skinny Caucasian girl who usually dresses for practically rather than style - so expect jackets with lots of pockets, cargo pants, etc - and is a bit more athletic from hiking.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Agent - [i]The Expert's Book.[/i]
[indent]The Expert's Book is an artifact given to Jacqueline Reed by her older sister, Emily, and it is a [url=https://i.imgur.com/SHDNY41.jpeg]leather book inscribed with golden runes[/url]. The book gets its power from a Sealed-Apparition known as [i]The Expert[/i], a being with a vast wealth of knowledge and wisdom that is willing and [i]wanting[/i] to share. However, the Expert is not just a passive source of information; it has a distinct personality and has chosen Jacqueline as its host (Or in its words [i]"Scholar"[/i]). 

It's an Apparition with a quirky, annoying, and exceptionally [i]pedantic[/i] personality that communicates with Jacqueline through the words on its pages and occasionally nudges Jacqueline towards specific topics, suggesting it has its agenda. The Expert chose Jacqueline as its host because of her adventurous spirit and thirst for knowledge, and this bond is not just a matter of preference; there is a magical bond that makes the book useless in anyone else's hands. The Expert is connected to Jacqueline's soul, and The Expert has no obligation to share its knowledge with anyone else. So if separated from it, the book pages will remain blank until Jacqueline reclaims it. If someone kills or injures its current Scholar to take the book, The Expert [i]will[/i] know and permanently lock itself out to the killer and any of its associates. Only when the current Scholar willingly gives up the book or dies will the Expert choose a new Scholar, but they must be worthy of the Expert's power.

To use the Expert's Book, Jacqueline has to ask it a question (either out loud or internally). Its pages come alive with countless pages filled with comprehensive knowledge of the subject or topic she wants to learn about. Plenty of this information is useless, so Jacqueline sometimes has to comb through the book to find valuable information. The book has a "slotting" system, where it can only learn about one subject at a time and gets discarded and replaced with the subject. This ability allows Jacqueline to gain near-omniscient knowledge, but only within the bounds of her questions. As a limit, she can only inquire on a subject [i]once.[/i][/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The beloved younger sister of Emily G. Reed and her twin sister, Jacqueline Reed, are (together) the third-in-command of the 8th Street Coven. Miranda embodies a more traditional and "girly" persona and a kind and empathetic nature that sometimes puts her at odds with the ruthless practices of the 8th Street Coven. Miranda [i]abhors[/i] the manipulation and intimidation used by the rest of the 8th Street Coven and often tries to push for a more ethical path. She often finds herself openly questioning the behavior of Emily and the others (and desperately hopes that Jacqueline isn't taking after their sister). 

She sees herself as the only thing stopping the Coven from going off the deep end, and [i]only[/i] remains in the Coven out of love for her two sisters and a sense of family. Above all, she's a gentle, nurturing, and empathetic soul amid the 8th Street Coven's more sinister activities. Much like Jacqueline, Miranda is a skinny caucasian girl with brown hair, except she keeps her a bit shorter... ironically. She usually tries to dress more "feminine" than her sister in dresses and skirts.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Adjoined - [i]Mother Mallory's Gift.[/i]
[indent]In life, there was a [i]legendary[/i] Adept with Green Lux, known only as Mother Mallory, who was known for her potent healing abilities and kindness. She wandered all over the All-Verse, healing people's wounds until she died, and the All-Verse got just a [i]little[/i] bit sadder. Emily located Mother Mallory's Apparition (or one spawned from her [i]legends[/i]), captured it, and adjoined it to Miranda - granting her the ability to use her abstraction by proxy. The most basic ability is that Miranda has an [i]incredibly[/i] potent healing factor, as in she can regenerate from minor injuries [i]instantly[/i], and major ones can heal in less than minutes. She once regrew an entire arm in [i]seconds[/i] and has demonstrated insane amounts of resilience to go along with this ability.

However, Mother Mallory's Gift's [i]primary[/i] aspect is that Miranda can transfer the wounds of others to [i]herself[/i] and regenerate them. She can transfer anyone's wounds to herself on touch and heal them in seconds. Thus, Miranda acts as the 8th Street Coven's healer. However, she is unaware of the upper limits of this abstraction as she never had to push herself that far, and not to mention it [i]hurts[/i]. Miranda suspects that taking on too many wounds at once can [i]kill[/i] her, but she'd still do it in a heartbeat.

Miranda has learned that she can transfer wounds to others if they consent, but she rarely does this.[/indent][/cell][/row]The leadership of the 8th Street Coven, which is comprised of Emily's closest allies and little sisters.[/table][/hider][hider=Underlings][table][row][cell][h2][b]"Greta"[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Faust[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/CMAHqMs.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A member of the Old Coven that wasn't under that sycamore tree but was another pivotal member as Greta was a healer and support in the fight against the Stygian Snake. Greta is a native of St. Portwell who was unfortunately named after her late grandmother, whom she "inherited" the artifact known as the Alchemist Ring. However, her Grandmother wanted the ring to be buried with her so it'd be lost to time as the Alchemist Ring was a chaotic instrument, and she wanted to [i]finally[/i] bring an end to it. Her grandmother trusted Greta to follow through with her wishes, but curiosity got the better of the girl, and when her grandmother finally passed, she discretely slipped the ring off of her. 

Greta used the alchemist ring and [i]experimented[/i] her little ass off, learning about all the beautiful things the ring could do. She created a healing potion and various other potions and wanted to use this artifact to change the world! However, she needed test subjects, and being a natural introvert, finding people to experiment on was hard. So, the young Greta went out at night and slipped homeless people her unique concoctions. This was when the Stygian Snake had long begun its rampage through St. Portwell, and one night, the Stygian Snake attacked and nearly killed her. 

The Sycamore Tree Coven, naturally, saved her, and she was roped into the Coven - which she only joined to test out her special potions. She provided potions that healed and enhanced abstractions, [i]and[/i] turned people into monsters when needed. When the Stygian Snake was defeated she was the one that made that special potion that removed everyone's memories whenever they so much as took a sip. However, Greta had a natural drive to go out and experiment with her abstraction! She had infinite test subjects to experiment on in the Old Coven and kept her head down while everyone was bickering about this and that. She had her little special lab in the old Coven's lair where she had [i]hundreds[/i] of potions she made to save the world! 

Various monsters began to pop up around St. Portwell, and the fearless second-in-command of the Coven, Daisy Hunter, got suspicious of Greta. Daisy knew that Greta could create potions that created monsters, and she was very reclusive... which led to Greta returning one day to a destroyed lab and Daisy accusing her of creating these monstrosities! Greta defended herself and eventually cleared her name with the help of Britney, Emily, Auri, and the others. However, the damage was already done; Greta's perception of the old Coven had already been long marred, and Greta left the Coven with a bitter taste in her mouth.

This led Emily to personally reach out to Greta and invite her to a better Coven, the 8th Street Coven. Greta didn't like Emily initially, but she and Emily bonded over their mutual hatred of the Old Coven's leadership. Greta Faust became a longtime member of the 8th Street Coven and had a renewed lab in the 8th Street Manor. She supports Emily's goal of taking over St. Portwell only because the city is in absolute chaos, and they're the only chance of bringing some order. Greta is a small and pudgy woman who stands at four-ten and has a noticeable gut; she dresses and appears punk with bright red hair.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Agent - [i]The Alchemist Ring.[/i]
[indent]A [url=https://i.imgur.com/qJ4Aen0.jpg]ring[/url] that Greta has taken from her grandmother against her wishes. It is an incredibly powerful and dangerous artifact with many different applications and uses, as Greta can create any number of potions by mixing different ingredients that she [i] believes [/i] will create her potion. With this abstraction, Greta is a very flexible and essential member of the 8th Street Coven. Below are the potions that Greta has devised so far:

[indent][b]Healing-Potion:[/b] [i]Aloe vera gel, Honey, Chamomile Flowers, and Lavender Oil.[/i] A simple glowing green potion that'll cause whoever drinks it to heal their wounds. The more they drink, the more they'll get healed from their injuries.

[b]Monster-Potion:[/b] [i]Bat Guano, Mandrake Root, Belladonna.[/i] A glowing orange potion will cause the consumer to transform into a monster that reflects some aspect of them. This transformation is usually painful and lasts for a few hours - and it causes the recipient's wounds to heal temporarily.

[b]Explosive-Potion:[/b] [i]Baking Soda, Citric Acid Powder, Aluminum Foil Shreds, Iodine Tincture.[/i] Greta's primary combat Potion is a glowing red serum kept in a glass jar that'll go off like a pipe bomb if it shatters. It's incredibly dangerous and once knocked down a brick wall, and laid waste to a squad of Das Sonnenrad footsoldiers.

[b]Fire-Breathing-Potion:[/b] [i]Red Dragon Chili Peppers, Dragonfruit Juice, Cinnamon Whiskey, Ghost Pepper Extract.[/i] A dull-red glowing potion that allows whoever drinks it to breathe fire at will. It is independent of abstractions, so one can breathe fire [i]and[/i] use their regular abstraction.

[b]Invisibility-Potion:[/b] [i]Juniper Berries, Slippery Elm Bark, Camouflage Green Tea, Clove Oil.[/i] A failure of a potion that Emily demands Greta to make. As the name implies, it allows whoever drinks it to turn invisible... and it doesn't work on their clothes, and Greta is not the kind of person who likes casual nudity. On anyone.

[b]Smoke-Screen-Potion:[/b] [i]Charcoal Powder, Pine Tar, Eucalyptus Oil, Clove.[/i] When thrown or shattered, this potion creates a dense cloud of smoke, providing cover and obscuring vision.

[b]Stamina-Potion:[/b] [i]Ginseng, Beetroot Extract, Ginger Root, Lemon Juice.[/i] The Stamina-Potion provides a temporary surge of energy, allowing whoever drinks it to perform strenuous physical activities for extended periods without fatigue.

[b]Acid-Potion:[/b] [i]Hydrochloric Acid, Sulfuric Acid, Vinegar, Lemon Juice, Ground Limestone.[/i] When shattered, this potion releases a highly corrosive acid that splashes over a wide area. The acid rapidly dissolves materials such as metal, stone, flesh, etc.

[b]Shape-Shifting Potion:[/b] [i]Chameleon Skin, Mandrake Root, Butterfly Wings, Ginseng, Nightshade Berries.[/i] This potion grants the consumer the ability to shape-shift into a different person for a short period of time. The exact form taken depends on the intent and focus of the user, as they can mimic someone they already know or temporarily remove a imperfection. 

[b]Abstraction-Enhacement-Potion:[/b] [i]Ginseng, Ashwagandha, Blue Lotus Flower, Cinnamon Bar.[/i] A glowing blue potion that boosts the abstractions of others the more they drink (and she is unaware of the upper limits, if any). For obvious reasons, it does not work on Greta.[/indent][/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h3][b]Phoebe[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Carmicheal[/b][/h3][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/3ETSEKr.jpg[/img]

[b]29 | Phoebe Tatiana Carmichael |  She/Her.[/b][hr][i]"I'll never let myself get outstaged again."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A native of Los Angeles, Phoebe grew up in an upper-middle-class environment, and she was the resented daughter of her father. You see, her father, Ian Carmicheal, isn't her actual father, and she was the product of an affair between her mother and her partner. Her father knew this, resented Phoebe, and treated her as the black sheep of her family - and mistreated her at every opportunity. Which made the girl feel like trash, and she, throughout her life, tried her best to rise out of it and become great. Throughout school, she was the Queen Bee, tried to be the best at soccer and basketball, best at arts... and yet, in the end, it didn't make her feel any better. Though Phoebe wanted to be home and play video games, her home was where the hatred was. 

The second Phoebe graduated high school; she was shunted away to college in St. Portwell, which was for the best as it allowed the woman to slow down and find [i]herself[/i]. She quickly learned to love being by herself and was usually stuck in her dorm room playing video games - which was an escape to her - where she was underestimated due to her race and gender often. Despite her more reclusive nature, however, she was drawn to being a performer, and as a hobby, she became a streamer who kept her identity a secret known as "Juicy-Fruit," a masked gamer. It started as a hobby she did on the side that gradually grew bigger and bigger due to her skill, confidence, and ability to put on a larger-than-life performance on stream... until she came out and unmasked herself. 

Some people turned their back on her, others became far more supportive of her, and Phoebe, as Juicy-Fruit, was always a divisive figure in the community due to her over-the-top ego. She eventually reached fame and fortune in which she could support herself full time off the streaming and dropped the whole college BS, went no-contact with her family, and got her apartment. Things were good; despite getting into numerous controversies, she rivaled a rising star, Kimberly Walton. Kimberly was a superstar who gained fame off being a "Ghost Hunter" who went around the country fighting monsters and ghosts, and Phoebe made sure to hate on her whenever she got the chance. After all, Kimberly boasted that [i]magic[/i] was real; that mere notion made Phoebe laugh.

However, Phoebe received a crash course in magic when, one day, she was pursued by a man-eating monster that broke into her apartment. She was in the middle of streaming, and if one of her viewers hadn't pointed it out, she would have been a hashtag herself! Phoebe was chased out of her apartment into the cold streets of St. Portwell, where she was cornered by the monster in an empty park... the experience made her undergo her Kindling Event. However, Kimberly Walton conveniently appeared and killed the monster - letting her know that [i]she[/i] was the one in her stream that got her to turn around. Phoebe was confused as Kimberly quickly explained magic to Phoebe, then disappeared. 

For a few weeks, Phoebe went off-grid, and chased after Kimberly, desperately trying to learn about any magic but getting the cold shoulder by the girl. After Kimberly left St. Portwell, Phoebe naturally went to the internet and chased any lead she could... however, Emily. G. Reed personally reached out to her. Phoebe was talked into a personal meeting with 8th Street Coven's leadership and wanted to learn about magic. Magic was new and exciting to Phoebe, and she would rather be out fighting monsters than sitting at a computer table talking to Simps. Phoebe is quick to be sarcastic and point out the holes in her leadership's plans. Phoebe is a half-African-American (with some Caribbean), a half-Korean woman who is tall and bony (at five-eleven) with notably dyed green and yellow dreadlocks.

She isn't aware of this, but James Carmicheal is her cousin.[/indent]

Adept - [i]Red & Green Lux.[/i] Channeler: Her necklace.
[indent][b]Ice Bitch:[/b] 
[indent][b]Cryomancy:[/b] Phoebe's main spell that allows her to create and manipulate ice at will. With focused thought, she can conjure intricate ice constructs, form icy barriers, or craft deadly projectiles to hurl at her foes. Her cryokinetic abilities allow her to shape ice into various forms, making her a dangerous and versatile fighter.

[b]Ice-Blast:[/b] Phoebe can create freezing blasts of cold energy in various forms (beams, orbs, etc.). These blasts freeze objects upon contact and encase them in a layer of ice.

[b]Chill:[/b] Phoebe can immediately lower the temperature of an area of her choice, either by a few degrees or to absolute zero. Due to her immunity to cold, she can function just fine in these pockets of cold.

[b]Ice Form:[/b] Phoebe can selectively or fully transform her body into solid ice. In this form, her body will be anatomically the same as her human form. Except her flesh and bones will be made out of ice - her organs will still be visible through the ice - and she will be absolute zero. In this form, Phoebe can manipulate her body shape and transform her hands into blades/maces/etc, and she'll be very durable. However, she'll be very slow and have a hard time maneuvering.
[indent][b]Ice-Regeneration:[/b] Phoebe has developed a spell in which she can absorb liquids (well, liquids that can freeze), shift them into her Ice-Form, and heal the wounds. Through this method, she can regenerate from otherwise fatal wounds in mere moments.[/indent][/indent][/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Brianna[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Wallace[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/ckiaJEN.jpg[/img]

[b]27 | Brianna Harmony Wallace |  She/Her[/b][hr][i]"It was the most beautiful place I've seen."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Another member of the Old Coven drawn to Emily's 8th Street to achieve her own ends. Brianna grew up a very mousy and reclusive woman in the town of St. Portwell; there isn't anything epic or amazing about her upbringing: She was shy, kept to herself, and was more interested in her family's library... which told fantastic stories of her family, Daniel Wallace, being a great dimensional explorer. Inside his library were the chronicles of his adventures, which ended when he met Brianna's mother, and they settled in Shimmer. There was something about a place known as the "Oasis" and "Luminescence," but the Stygian Snake attacked her house, killed her parents, and razed the library. Brianna was distraught but filled with aspirations of revenge... a desire that fueled her Kindling-Event. 

Briefly, Brianna went on a one-woman rampage against the Stygian Snake, taking out several of its dark minions... that was when she came in contact with the Sycamore Tree Coven and joined them. She joined the expedition to find the necessary artifacts, being a backup portal opener if one of their primary teleporters went down. Fortunately, that never happened, and Brianna was there to watch the Snake get sealed into the Sycamore Tree, then she left. She knew her true calling wasn't in Shimmer or the Sycamore Tree Coven... it was in the greater All-Verse. Brianna followed in her father's footsteps and traveled the All-Verse, cataloging her various adventures while searching for this "Oasis" and "Luminescence" that she could vaguely remember. 

However, during one of her adventures, she learned about an artifact known as the [i]White Compass[/i], something that could take someone into the Oasis and Luminescence. However, she heard that it was in the Pit, and like any sane and rational adventurer, she threw herself into a red crack and ended up in the Pit. A hellscape like no other, full of horrible monsters (which makes her a [i]little[/i] adverse to her Coven sister, Cynthia). However, it was an exciting experience; she explored the place, searching for the White Compass, almost dying countless times and gathering many artifacts. Until she came across a temple where it was stored... and it was gone, she saw a Recollection of a man named James Vanburen taking it... and that sounded very familiar to her. 

Leaving the Pit was easy for Brianna, as the place appeared to be sentient, and it [i]hated[/i] the fact that Brianna was only there to plunder. She returned to Shimmer and searched for James Vanburen and, unfortunately, heard that he was dead... and his descendants were less than friendly towards her. She had zero leads on where the White Compass was... but she eventually fell into Emily's 8th Street Coven. Brianna didn't like Emily, but with her insane aspiration of stealing everyone's artifacts, she had the best chance of getting the White Compass. So, she begrudgingly serves as 8th Street's teleporter. Brianna is a short and mousy woman at five-three who is chubby but hides her extra weight well. However, she always had wider hips and backside.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Adept - [i]Red & Purple.[/i] Channeler: Her cell phone.
[indent][b]Photomancy:[/b] Brianna can use magic to create light and manipulate existing light sources. She can create flashes of light, holograms, and more... but the keystone to this spell is the ability to create "hard-light" constructs. She can create anything that comes to mind, and this gives her extreme amounts of versatility.

[b]Portal-Creation:[/b] A spell that allows Brianna to create a spiraling portal made out of spinning light that she and her 8th Street allies can travel through. Before, it only allowed her to [i]only[/i] enter a brand new dimension, but she has adjusted it to allow her to teleport to places she has been before, as well. 

[b]Reflective-Teleportation:[/b] A far faster and linear form of teleportation, but it has its limits. Brianna sticks her phone out and fires a beam of light, which will reflect off any surface. After focusing, Brianna can teleport to the other end of this beam of light.

[b]Teleportation Nullification Veil:[/b] A particular spell that Brianna devised during the battle with the Stygian Snake that'd negate its ability to teleport and escape them. After some experimentation and fine-tuning, she perfected the Spell and managed to block the Stygian Snake from escaping during the final battle. However, this spell is so potent that it works on [i]any[/i] form of teleportation. Essentially, Brianna creates a transparent dome that can be up to thirty meters in diameter, and any teleporter, portal-creator, and whatnot will either not be allowed to teleport while in the veil or cannot enter it with teleportation.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h1][b]Cynthia[/b][/h1][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/O4JY8Rb.jpg[/img]

[b]22 | Cynthia, just Cynthia |  She/Her[/b][hr][i]"Cynthia finds this human annoying. Cynthia looks forward to silencing you."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A predator among humans, close to a wolf in sheep's clothing as they get, as Cynthia is not an actual human even in the slightest. Cynthia comes from a species of Abominable that lurk in the Pit known as [i]Abyssal Hunters[/i], creatures that hunt and devour Paranormal Beings in the Pit. Cynthia would have just been another Abyssal Hunter who would have done nothing more than kill people and breed more of her kind if it wasn't for a woman named [i]Tiffany Beck[/i]. 

After the Stygian Snake was defeated, Tiffany was one of the many who rushed into St. Portwell to see if she could fill the power vacuum before it was too late. She was a Purple Adept who cracked the code and created a method to enter and leave the Pit freely, and she heard about the Abyssal Hunters. She traveled into the Pit, found a pack with young, and simply kidnapped the newborn and researched the thing while feeding it her enemies. Tiffany discovered that the Abyssal Hunters had intelligence on par with humans (capable of human speech, too!) and raised the beast as a sort of child. Tiffany taught it how to read, write, talk, and societal customs, to the point where the thing could blend in with humans!

She named it Cynthia and applied a spell known as Glamour, which allowed Cynthia to change between human form and Abyssal-Hunter Form. 

Tiffany turned Cynthia into her killing machine that hunted down and stalked all her enemies, forming an organization to take over St. Portwell. Which would have made her a formidable opponent in the present... if she hadn't crossed Emily G. Reed. Emily and the newly formed 8th Street Coven clashed with Tiffany Beck's faction, but the tide was turned when Jacqueline Reed found out about Cynthia's true nature. Emily convinced her that Tiffany was an unworthy pack leader, and she got through to the beast by saying she was nothing more than an attack dog to her! Cynthia turned on her master and brutally killed Tiffany in front of the entire 8th Street Coven and joined them - accepting Emily as her new pack leader. Becoming one of their longtime members who was a great help during the conflict with Das Sonnenrad, where she ate several of Kaiser's Chosen. [i]Alive.[/i] 

Cynthia has a strange personality because while the Abyssal Hunters have human-like intelligence, they're still wired differently. For starters, she uses the third person to speak and sometimes acts like an excitable puppy rather than a person. However, she must resist the urge to eat every Paranormal she comes across and save her appetite for the enemies of 8th Street. She doesn't consider herself human thanks to Emily and aligns herself with 8th Street only because she sees Emily as a superior "pack leader" to Tiffany. While under glamour, Cynthia appears to be an African-American woman modeled after a younger Tiffany. One that stands at five-four, with an afro that was dyed blonde.

In her true form? Well...[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Abominable - [i]Abyssal-Hunter.[/i]
[indent]The Abyssal Hunters are a hazardous species of pack hunter Abominable that inhabit the Pit - though it's theorized that they previously resided in a destroyed universe and adapted well to the harsh nature of the Pit. They have human levels of intelligence... while having animalistic strength. To begin, Cynthia's "master" had a spell applied to her so she could switch between human form and Abyssal-Hunter form at will, exploding in a cloud of pink smoke. Her [url=https://i.imgur.com/RO5UXix.jpg] proper form[/url] is a white, four-legged creature with a mouth full of teeth and two long, razor-sharp talons on her feet, and she is twelve feet long from head to toe. The Abyssal Hunter's physical capabilities are far from superhuman, however. Still, she is strong enough to throw a human around with her bite alone (speaking of bite, you do [b][i]not[/i][/b] want to get bit by her), her sense of smell is on par with a bloodhound, can run thirty miles per hour, mimic voices, and durable enough to tank most non-Paranormal attacks.

However, they have an ability that is known as Emotional-Field Attunement. Cynthia can see the auras of any Paranormal-Being in sight (even in human form), and she can focus on them and automatically adjust her Emotional-Field to resist their Abstraction. For example, against a Cyromancer, she can be incredibly hard to freeze and can tank their frozen attacks like nothing. Someone with super strength will find their punches hitting her at half their strength. However, she can only do this to one Paranormal-Being at a time.

As a failsafe, if the "Pack-leader" (Emily) shouts "Cynthia heel!", then Cynthia will transform back into her harmless human form.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]"Lee"[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Evans[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/L8WAVGU.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The Stygian Snake terrorized many different universes, hopping from dimension to dimension whenever daybreak arose. Many don't know there was a dimension [i]parrel[/i] to Shimmer in which an [i]alternate[/i] Sycamore Tree Coven formed to defeat the Stygian Snake. However, given that Shimmer's Sycamore Tree Coven defeated the Stygian, this alternate Coven didn't suffer nearly the same number of casualties and had no purpose. However, this alternate Ashley Stone [i]apparently[/i] took the Coven down a darker path, and they became an antagonistic force that took over St. Portwell's magical scene - killing or imprisoning anyone who objected.

Where does Lee come in all of this? Mercy Evans, his older sister (who died fighting the Stygian Snake in Shimmer's Coven), objected to the direction that Ashley took the Coven. Mercy formed a resistance group, the Vanguard, and rebelled against this Coven. Mercy went home and told her younger brother all about this, and Lee thought it was [i]soooo[/i] cool and saw his older sister as a hero! Eventually, they ambushed and critically injured Mercy outside their home, and she gave Lee the artifact she used: The Hero's Gauntlet. 

Lee vowed revenge against the Coven and used the Gauntlet to wage a one-man war against this Coven. He seemingly made headway against this powerful organization, but in his attacks against the Coven, he [i]somehow[/i] made things worse. Releasing dangerous and powerful monsters into St. Portwell and leaving St. Portwell's power vacuum open for [i]worse[/i] threats to take their place. The Coven desperately tried to convince Lee that he got [i]everything[/i] wrong and he should stop. This plunged St. Portwell into chaos while eroding Lee's sanity while claiming to be the hero that would liberate St. Portwell from the evil Coven. He finally faced Ashley, Auri, and Daisy and prepared for an epic final battle. They chucked him through a portal, and he ended up in Shimmer.

Lost, scared, and alone, he eventually found Emily G. Reed, a member of Mercy's Vanguard in his home dimension. He told her everything and... Emily essentially manipulated him into joining 8th Street under promises of helping him defeat the alternate Coven if she helps him. Since then, Lee has been a member of 8th Street who quickly found himself abhorring Emily but swallowed his pride because she is familiar to him and out of hopes that she does help him. Lee is a skinny, somewhat well-built caucasian guy due to hitting the gym, and stands at five-eleven. 

Due to his experiences with his universe's Coven, his perception of the Sycamore Tree Coven is permanently marred.[/indent]

Agent - [i]The Hero's Gauntlet.[/i]
[indent][url=https://i.imgur.com/T6G1rin.jpg]The Hero's Gauntlet[/url] is an artifact created in an alternate dimension that changed hands quite often until it fell into Mercy Evan's hands... then Lee Evan's. The Gauntlet, at its basest, raises Lee's strength, speed, reflexes, durability, and healing to slightly above peak... not quite superhuman, but he's going to give an average person a challenge hand to hand. However, the artifact can allow its wielder to summon several magical weapons wielded by the first heroes to defeat Babylon The Great and stop her from destroying the All-Verse. The weapons and their abilities are below:

[indent][b]The Valiant Blades:[/b] The go-to weapon for Lee, and it is essentially a glowing-gold sword that has no supernatural properties in particular... other than the fact that the blades are functionally indestructible. He can create the blades from regular-sized swords to comically large claymores straight out of a videogame.

[b]The Blazing Arrow:[/b] A flaming bow and arrow that Lee can use to fire explosive arrows... upon contact, the arrows will create an explosion of fire.

[b]The Zephyr Dagger:[/b] A glowing dagger that Lee can use to summon powerful gusts of wind by swinging the short blade. He can create a tornado by spinning it around as long as he keeps spinning it.

[b]The Quake Hammer:[/b] A mighty hammer made of stone, he can slam the hammer on the ground and create powerful earthquakes that could potentially knock down an entire building. At the very least, he can disorient and slow down foes. 

[b]Aegis Reflector:[/b] A transparent, triangle-shaped shield made of glowing purple energy that will reflect any magical projectiles that make contact with it.[/indent][/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Nadine[color=2e2c2c].[/color]King[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/NoOfsCw.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Not a native of St. Portwell like many others, Nadine was born and raised in New Orleans... where clashing necromancer families rule the city from the shadows. Nadine has no connection to this and grew up in the poorer parts of New Orleans to parents who were getting by. However, they were a victim of the feuding magical families, and they were killed, leaving Nadine a bitter child who was kicked around the system while desperately searching for a cause of all of this. However, this attracted the Baron, an ancient necromancer Apparition, to Nadine, and he adjoined himself to her. He became Nadine's magical mentor and explained to her everything that had happened... and helped Nadine discover a new purpose in life. 

She vowed to destroy the magical families that ruled New Orleans, but that was easier said than done - while the Baron was powerful, they were powerful [i]and[/i] numerous, so the young Nadine had to get creative. She acted as a double agent, spy, information broker, mercenary, and so forth, constantly pitting the families against one another until she managed to evoke a fatal war between the factions. Eventually, all the families were destroyed, and she developed a sense of nothingness... this didn't make her feel any better, and eventually, other factions moved into New Orleans. 

So, with the Baron, Nadine left New Orleans to fall into chaos and traveled the West Coast, acting as a "supernatural expert" con woman. She traveled, deceiving people out of their well-earned funds by casting curses on people and engineering Paranormal phenomenon (that she could conveniently solve). Eventually, however, she ended up in St. Portwell right after the defeat of the Stygian Snake, and the city was rife with marks... However, Nadine was confronted by the Sycamore Tree Coven, who were investigating her. After a brief confrontation, Nadine was run out of the city by the Coven.

Humiliated, Nadine went back to drifting from place to place... until she was reached out by Emily G. Reed, one of the people previously a part of the Coven that defeated her. Emily knew that there was more to Nadine than what met the eye, and the Baron and Babylon the Great were old friends. Emily wanted Nadine to be part of her new 8th Street Coven as her supernatural expert - it wasn't a gig that Nadine was used to. Still, Nadine was tired of wandering around scamming and saw some potential in Emily's plans.

If not, then [i]Nadine King[/i] didn't exist. 

Nadine is a [i]tall[/i] (at six-two) African-American woman who usually has a handful of different rings and vibrant earrings. She usually keeps a scowl on her face and is silent, but when she speaks, 8th Street listens. She is the most quiet and mysterious of the 8th Street Coven - to the joy of Emily.[/indent]

Adjoined - [i]The Baron.[/i]
[indent]One of the many apparitions that spawned from the legend of Baron Samedi... [url=https://i.imgur.com/aCfCqB0.jpg]the Baron[/url] himself is more inspired by what Baron Samedi was not. Where Baron Samedi was a peaceful Loa that welcomed people to the other side, the Baron is a more malicious and villainous Apparition that seeks power. The Baron is a necromancer Apparition deeply intertwined with human emotions, particularly those associated with life and death. The Baron can tap into the leftover emotional residue left behind by grieving hearts and tragic and tumultuous events - creating a bridge between the human realm and the realm of the undead. Through this link, the Baron can summon various undead minions that are typical Necromancer feats. The Baron can summon hordes of zombies, skeletons, wraiths, and whatnot - and he can somewhat manipulate these minions' forms. He can create massive rolling blobs of flesh and even towering monstrosities, even given enough time.

The Baron is naturally connected to grieving hearts and can sense the auras of people grieving their loved ones from over a hundred meters through solid objects.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Malik[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Jakane[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/oOTkbBA.jpg[/img]

[b]26 | Malik Wyatt Jakane Jr. |  He/Him[/b][hr][i]"I am Malik... of the soaring wind! Of the raging sea!"[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The theatrical and hammy Malik Jakane (Jr)!

A resident and native of Miami, Florida, and son and the only child (that we know of!) of Shayton. Malik grew up utterly oblivious to what his father was doing to give the boy what he wanted; after all, Shayton was a very distant person, making him a distant father. He would appear now and then, mainly for important events and to see his son, and then disappear. Which... did not bode well for Malik's development. However, the boy was naturally personable and outgoing, surrounded by friends constantly, and Florida was [i]the[/i] place to be for summer activities. So, Malik didn't grow up unhappy, and he grew up with aspirations to become an actor (and was naturally drawn to theater) and travel the world - to be there on the world stage. However, when Malik turned 18, Shayton felt it was time for him to come clean to his son about what he was doing and that [i]somehow[/i] pushed Malik further away from Shayton. 

It was an emotional moment that caused Malik to undergo his kindling event, and it was a secret that he kept from his father (who could have helped him a great deal). Once Malik graduated, he went to college to make a man for himself and pursue his dreams! He first went to Miami University for a bachelor's in Computer Science. However, this was merely a fallback plan to gain some extra skills. His true calling was acting, and after applying, applying, and [i]applying...[/i] he managed to get into the prestigious St. Portwell School of Acting! Since then, he has been working to become the actor of his dreams. 

Malik was very well-rounded and outgoing in different places was his thing - his favorite restaurant was the one that Pearl Cho's parents owned. He became very close to the girl that moonlit as some nature-based superhero! The two dated briefly, where she revealed the world of magic, and Malik thought that was [i]crazy...[/i] because he, too, had magic. She roped him into the Greenwood Coven (Where he was the Knight Storm for a stint), where he acted as the sole male member for a time. However, in the war against Emily, Malik came up with a genius idea: practice his acting by acting as a [i]spy[/i] for Greenwood. Ruby approved the idea, and Malik put on the guise of a ruthless thug while transmitting all the information he could back to Greenwood. However, Malik is [i]not[/i] built for this and is miserable in 8th Street and wants to go back to smoking weed with Greenwood.

Malik is a second-generation African immigrant; his father was Liberian, and his mother is Nigerian. However, Malik identifies as American while taking in his parent's culture. He is tall, at six-three, and very thin and lanky due to years of exercise (he doesn't want to be a fat actor!). While with 8th Street, he usually has a scowl and puts on the facade of a violent thug who is a massive softie behind closed doors.

He has no clue that Shayton is in St. Portwell and would rather not know.[/indent]

Adept - [i]Red Lux.[/i] Channeler:
[indent][b]Aeromancy:[/b] The first spell that Malik devised was an Aeromancy spell! Reflecting his peaceful nature, he can summon gusts of wind, tornadoes, and whatnot that gelled well with the Spring and Fall Maiden's Aeromancy. What was essential to the spell was that Malik had developed a form of flight by riding the wind, baby! However, apart from his guise as a member of 8th Street, he has temporarily retired the spell, only using the flight aspect.

[b]Storm-Cloud:[/b] One of the Spells that Malik had developed as the Knight Storm, Malik can summon a telepathically-controlled storm cloud that can be used to create [i]any[/i] weather phenomena. Whether it be rain, snow, hail, [i]lightning,[/i] fog, wind, etc. However, while in 8th Street, he does not use this spell lest he gets outted as the Knight Storm.

[b]Starsailor:[/b] The primary spell that Malik uses as an 8th Street spy... Malik can shoot miniature stars out of his hands that appear as they would if they were in the night sky. These stars are [i]hot[/i] and can burn anything they come in contact with, but they dissipate on contact with an object or after a few moments. He can manipulate their direction somewhat and do something similar to [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7YE2Qd1YIk]the ol Hellzone Grenade.[/url][/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Flora[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Benard[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/bJPSC5y.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Flora is a native of St. Portwell who grew up in an idyllic little suburb only a stone's throw away from the coast! She grew up playing with friends and cousins and idolizing her older sister, Geneva. Geneva was everything Flora was not; she was tall, dazzling, personable, and talented! Flora was... just there for the most part, and her accomplishments were typically passed over in favor of her sister. To the point where she used to claim that she has been "sixteen, clumsy, and shy, for over fifteen years now!" Geneva went to college, and Flora was stuck as a receptionist for an accounting company. She spent several years dodging her boss's "offer for promotion" while miserable, only watching the fantastic life that Geneva was living through social media!

Things changed once Geneva got a boyfriend... it was a gradual change. She started posting dog whistles that went over Flora's head to outright posting fascist propaganda. However, the most significant change was that Geneva was [i]finally[/i] paying Flora attention and treating her like a sister instead of a prop! However, it wasn't long until Flora realized just [i]why[/i] her sister was treating her nicely all of a sudden. 

To recruit her into Das Sonnenrad. 

You see, Geneva's boyfriend crept into her life, corrupted her mind and worldview, and made her perfect for the Das Sonnenrad cult. Using his abstraction, he deduced that she had Adept lineage, forced her to undergo a Kindling Event, and made her one of Kaiser Draeger's Chosen alongside himself. Geneva roped her sister into the cult only to gain favor with Kaiser Draeger, and she gave her sister the Aegis Piercer to act as one of Kaiser's footsoldiers on the streets of St. Portwell. Flora knew it was wrong, but the high she got from [i]finally[/i] getting attention and approval from her sister was none other. So she happily cut down men, women, and children alike to keep that high. 

However, it wasn't long until she came down and what had happened to her: she was love-bombed into becoming a soldier for a Neo-Nazi cult only so her sister could get the approval of a Hitler-wannabe. She wanted to shoot Geneva with the Aegis Piercer... but she knew that Das Sonnenrad didn't take kindly to deserters (as in they were typically made an example of), so she had to play the part until Flora saw the writing on the wall: Kaiser Draeger had made some [i]serious[/i] enemies and they were systematically tearing the cult apart, stronghold by stronghold. Flora knew this was her chance to get out of this: she contacted Emily G. Reed of 8th Street. She allied with 8th Street and told her where the remaining Das Sonnenrad strongholds were and, most crucially, where Kaiser Draeger was.

During the final battle, Flora [i]tried[/i] to get through to her sister, but she was too far gone and was willing to die for the Cult. The Winter Maiden killed her, and the Specter Knight claimed her soul. She escaped the Das Sonnenrad sanctuary, and it didn't take a genius for the Das Sonnenrad remnants to figure out that she had betrayed the cult. Naturally, they came for her neck, and Flora barely made it out alive. She went to the PRA's new Regional Commander, Meifeng Liao, and she told Flora to pound sand, that she had [i]zero[/i] sympathy for Nazis, and to go accept the consequences of her actions. Flora falls into 8th Street with no other choice, who utterly hates her guts but finds her too valuable to get rid of. It was the only way to keep the leftover Nazis off of her, as they were afraid of 8th Street wiping out the rest of them. So, Flora acts as the begrudging punching bag and foot for Emily G. Reed's 8th Street Coven. Flora is an average-height Caucasian woman who is skinny with a face full of freckles and reddish-brown hair.[/indent]

Agent - [i]The Aegis Piercer.[/i]
[indent]A magical artifact and weapon used by the famed Amazon tribe to protect their home island. The Amazons had an array of magical weaponry that would be fantastic by the outside world's standards, but the standard issue to them. They used The Aegis Piercer to defend their island, but several were smuggled off the island and sold to the various black market groups... and one ended up in Flora's hands. [url=https://i.imgur.com/2MriPed.jpg]The Aegis Piercer[/url] takes the appearance of a crossbow made out of stone marble... and despite looking too heavy to wield, it can easily be wielded by the scrawny Flora. It is a devastating and helpful weapon that is standard-issue for a reason. It essentially has a limitless supply of arrows; just by pulling the trigger, an arrow will [i]always[/i] appear and fire at the enemy. Interestingly, the arrows can bypass [i]any[/i] defenses and end up in the target. 

These arrows are imbued with dimensional traveling ability and can temporarily phase in between different dimensions to bypass any defenses and end up in the target - bypasses any defenses, laws of physics, or common sense. This has different levels, as the Aegis Piercer is mentally linked to Flora, as it can either bypass a wall to get to the target on the other side or pierce through the armor of an individual... or even go through one person to get to the one on the other side.

However, these arrows have no supernatural properties beyond being supernaturally armor-piercing and are just functionally regular arrows.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]George[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Nelson[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/Z21u1JV.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A member of the Old Coven... he was famous in St. Portwell High as one of its biggest bullies, who used his incredible size to intimidate others. He was famous in the wrestling ring as George the Juggernaut! However, one day, after beating some nerds at the old arcade, George was attacked by the Stygian Snake's minions, who nearly killed him. Until he was saved by the old Coven and discovered that he suddenly had an Abstraction, he was roped into the Coven by Britney Williams, primarily comprised of the people he bullies! Working with the people he intimidated was difficult, but he felt a rush like no other when fighting the Stygian Snake and its minions! This abstraction he had made him cocky and even [i]bolder[/i] in his bullying and bullying members of the old Coven during the campaign against the Stygian Snake. 

This all culminated in the final battle, where he rushed in, took a fatal blow, and was left for dead by the members he had scorned! If it wasn't for the kindness and compassion of Jade West, he wouldn't have made it. He was mad, and instead of reflecting on himself, he blamed the Coven. He eventually became one of their enemies, a persistent nail in their side that acted as dumb muscle for various factions. He was defeated time and time again, and this made him no different as he loved the rush he got from these magical fights! The collapse of the old Coven didn't stir George at all... as he fell into the hands of Emily G. Reed.

Emily told him the truth: that Britney forcibly adjoined him to his Apparition under hopes that he would die fighting the Stygian Snake. This made George feel no way or the other, except that Britney wanted him to [i]die[/i] before her little secret got out. Emily knew that George liked to fight, just for the thrill of it all, and invited him to a Coven where he would get all the fights he wanted... and he gladly accepted, becoming 8th Street's enforcer and strongman. George is notable for being [i]freakishly[/i] tall at seven-five (like they made News articles about the guy!) and very well-built due to his abstraction.[/indent]

He can perform [i]ridiculous[/i] feats of super strength, such as throwing trucks, punching through concrete, and tanking bullets like it was nothing. It's unknown where the upper limits of this Abstraction land. Still, they come with a subtle telekinetic aspect that allows George to defy the laws of physics with some of his feats, such as pulling a chunk out of the ground, throwing it at someone, and throwing a car without falling apart when he swings it. George is also durable to boot, but only to physical attacks - you can still burn, electrocute, and whatnot.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Aaron[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Sawyer[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/cARQivC.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A native of Chi-town... he grew up in the mean southside alongside his younger sister, Kenya. Chicago wasn't a safe place to raise kids, but their parents did their best to give their children a better life than them. However, Aaron, despite it all, found himself drawn to the bad crowd, the kids who idolized the gangster lifestyle. By high school, Aaron was selling drugs and illegally had a gun that was given to him by an older friend... and he eventually ended up getting arrested for possessing drugs [i]and[/i] possession of a stolen firearm (that gun he was given? Reported stolen). Given that he was a black youth already committing crimes, he was tried as an adult and sentenced to over twenty years in prison before he got out of high school. 

The stress triggered his Kindling Event, and with his White Lux, he navigated the prison system more easily than others. He developed a sharp edge and cunning that helped him survive these twenty years that he had to look forward to... however, when he was in his early twenties, his sister, Kenya, visited him in prison in a private room with some people in suits. These people turned out to be Meifeng Liao and Cindy Keagan, who guessed correctly that he had an abstraction and gave him a choice: Get released out of prison now and join the PRA, or rot there. Naturally, he chose the former, underwent training, and had his sister as his partner.

It was a culture shock, but Aaron would rather be in a suit than a cell. However, old habits die hard, and it wasn't long until he was making under-the-table deals with Paranormal organizations, tampering with evidence, and skimming drugs and money. He knew it was a great way to get thrown back in jail (or worse, "accidentally" fall out of a window), but this was all that Aaron knew. However, his sister Kenya caught onto this and demanded that Aaron stop, and at the request of his loving sister, Aaron ceased and went clean...

... Until the Lighthouse incident. 

Like many other agents, it was a traumatic event that he doesn't like to talk about. What is significant about the whole thing was that his sister Kenya was the one to end it all... and then she went missing. No one in the PRA cared about her and brushed him aside when he demanded that they search for his sister, but they already declared her dead. Out of frustration, Aaron left the PRA, and Director Alcott allowed him to do so without throwing him back in prison, as the Director felt that wasn't right. So, Aaron went from place to place, working for different crime-lords across the states (including Dollhouse, briefly), and sometimes being an informant for the Police and/or PRA. 

Until he ended up in St. Portwell... where he came across the lovely Emily G. Reed; dealing with her was like rubbing his nuts against sandpaper until they go raw, but she had potential (and she fought Nazis), and she needed someone who was used to working in the criminal underground in her ranks. So, Aaron is a defacto member of the 8th Street Coven (only because he detests Emily G. Reed too much to call himself one of her people), acting as a bridge between 8th Street and the criminal underworld - allowing them to make deals with different factions and finding artifacts for them. Aaron is an African-American man who is skinny but stands at five-eleven.[/indent]

[indent][b]Spotlight:[/b] A spell Aaron devised to avoid fights: he can focus on a person and, using his Pink-Lux, influence people subconsciously into paying attention to that person. People's eyes will be drawn to them, and will pay more attention to them over other events. This somewhat bypasses Emotional-Fields, as the Paranormal will have the ability to resist.

[b]Emotional-Amplifier:[/b] By focusing on a person, Aaron can intensify their current emotions to exponential levels - causing them to quickly spiral out of confront. A mildly annoyed person will break out to throwing hands in seconds, a happy person will be able to ignore even the worst moments, while a sad person will be catatonic. Emotional-Fields inhibit this spell somewhat, it will take more effort and concentration to bypass this Emotional-Field.

[b]Danger-Sense:[/b] A keystone spell in Aaron's arsenal, this spell allows him to instinctively sense when he's in danger or when someone nearby has hostile intent toward him or his allies. This sense manifests as a tingling sensation or a heightened state of awareness, allowing him to react quickly to threats. This spell works automatically and has saved him and 8th Street countless times since he joined.

[b]Connect The Dots:[/b] This spells Aaron understands the cause-and-effect relationships within a action. By focusing his attention on a specific location or person, he gains intuitive insights into the links between events and "fills in the blanks for him." For example, if he walks into the aftermath of a fight, he can know what sparked the fight and how many people were fighting in it. 

[b]Radar-Pulse:[/b] A spell that continuously sends out a pulse of White-Lux that travels out in a range of thirty meters. This pulse bounces off living beings and returns to him and gives him a sort of "map" of people or other Paranormal-Beings in this radius - trumping most stealth abilities that don't specifically counter White Lux or information gathering in general.  He can sense if someone is entering the range, moving within it, or just lingering. It doesn't give him more information beyond the location of whatever is within its range.

[b]Knowledge Absorption:[/b] A spell that allows Aaron to gain intuitive knowledge and insights on his environment. It works by creating an invisible thirty-meter field dome around him, and it's a sensory field that gathers information in his environment. It gives him information on basically everything within that field, such as details on objects and people, information on computers and books, and even residual magical energies. The longer it remains active, the more information he gathers, including distant history - but that would require the field to be active for [i]hours[/i].

[b]Lie Detection:[/b] This spell activates the moment someone starts talking. Aaron sees an aura, and this spell basically monitors their aura for dishonesty. When they lie, the aura changes color, and Aaron will know that they are lying. Mixed with Connect the Dots, there's just no lying to Aaron.

[b]Abstraction Intuition:[/b] A spell his sister taught him helps him learn about the paranormal and their abstractions. When an abstraction is used in his field of view, he instinctively senses and understands their nature and gains information such as what Paranormal-Being they are, what their abstraction is, and any other information relating to their abstraction. This spell also allows him to see the auras of Paranormal-Beings and essentially automatically tells him if they are Paranormal or not.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Carol[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Doyle[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/C2TcLfp.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The spicy member of the Old Coven and current member of the 8th Street Coven. 

Carol was a native of LA but moved to St. Portwell when she was young because her parents thought it would be a better environment for her (and they have family there!). There wasn't anything of note about Carol's past; she was just a regular ass girl. However, the Stygian Snake's rampage was where it all began, and her entire house was knocked over by the Stygian Snake, which killed her entire family. She was barely alive... and she saw Britney Williams. Suddenly, she was brought back to life, and... she looked down and saw a fucking hourglass fused to her stomach. She was confused about all of this, but Britney brought her back to her cult, and they explained everything - about how magic was real, and now she had magic too (which Britney was [i]oddly[/i] knowledgeable about). She was still confused but honestly went along to stop the Stygian Snake and avenge her family!

The Stygian Snake tore her in half during the final battle. 

However, at this point, Carol began returning to the same spot where it all started: her destroyed house. She checked the hourglass in her stomach, and it would gradually drop sand from the second the day started, ending at midnight, where it would teleport her back to the exact spot where her old house where her family was killed. It would also revert her to her exact appearance, preventing her from aging alone while triggering her to see her old house. Carol went to Britney, who explained that the hourglass resets Carol back in time to the moment she received it, with its ability to restore anyone or anything she touches merely being a sub ability. 

Then, it came out that Britney did this to her and others without their permission. Naturally, Carol was pissed off about this, and this naturally drew her to the likes of Emily and Vashti. When those two left, Carol was right behind them, given that the Old Coven had more interest in arguing and fighting each other than getting this damn thing out of her. Thus, Carol was one of the founding members of the 8th Street Coven and wholly supports Emily's dream of magical supremacy only so she can stop assholes with God-complexes like Britney. However, her goal is to get rid of the hourglass and gain a new abstraction, which Emily claims she's working on (she's not). When she was fourteen years old, Carol appeared to be herself, a small girl at four-eleven with very short blonde hair. Despite her aggressive and firey attitude, she doesn't look intimidating or assuming.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Agent - [i]The Hourglass.[/i]
[indent]The Hourglass is a valuable and potent artifact that Britney forcibly fused to Carol to force her into the fight with the Stygian Snake. Carol admits it is a powerful artifact, but she wants nothing to do with it. Its most notable ability is to gradually revert anything she touches in time (reverting it to a previous state), and the longer she touches it, the further back in time it goes. This can reach a point where she can do things such as reverting materials to their raw form and turning people back into [i]fetuses[/i] (and yes, she has done this before). She can exert more energy to make this process faster, and this abstraction can work on the Paranormal, but Emotional-Fields make it work four times as hard. If someone consents, she can pierce through their emotional field; using it offensively on the Paranormal is impractical. With this abstraction, she can easily repair damage and heal wounds - even resurrect the dead. 

However, this isn't the true ability of this abstraction and is merely a [i]sub-ability.[/i] The primary aspect of the Hourglass is, essentially, immortality. Upon her first death, it created a fixed point (a [i]checkpoint[/i]) in time that she automatically returns to once the clock strikes midnight. Once midnight hits, she will be teleported to where Britney gave her the hourglass - her parent's house that the Stygian Snake destroyed - and reverting her physically back to that point. So, any alterations made to her body will be restored, any aging, any wounds, and it will even bring her back from the dead. 

While it is a powerful abstraction, Carol wants to be normal![/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Maya likes to claim that the 8th Street Coven has no leader, or if asked will say its [i]her[/i], but in reality she’s more like the gum on the bottom of Emily's shoe that she can't get rid of no matter how hard she tries. Maya grew up in Seoul, Korea in an incredibly strict household where the only fun she had was educational games. She got into St. Portwell college for Chemical Physics, and immediately moved (just after the Stygian Snake was seeled). She fell in with a bad group, then a bad relationship that turned incredibly abusive. This triggered her kindling event, and the aftermath led her to losing all her friends…

Then she heard about the little coven Emily was putting together. Maya was one of the early members, joining pretty much as soon as it was created. She was looking for companionship and a way to explore her newfound magic - but she was quite happy when the coven’s focus shifted. Taking over the city's magical scene seemed pretty good. While with the 8th Street Maya has graduated and gotten a very well paid job at a company run by one of the cities Elite (literally, they’re a member of this group). This means she can help 8th a bit with information gathering on one of their enemies... At least the little she finds out and overhears at work.

It’s hard to tell why Maya is still in the 8th Street Coven. Her and Emily are [i]constantly[/i] at each other's throats - Maya just can’t help making snide comments towards her, which leads to arguments and threats, but ultimately the two of them agree with each other more often than not (which neither would admit to). She also doesn’t really have anything to gain. Maya doesn’t take any issue with Emily’s brutality, she’s glad to go along with that, she just takes issue with how controlling she is and her constant slut shaming. And she will not shut up about those issues she has. But 8th are also the only people she knows in the city, so she’s chosen to stick there. 

Maya is an incredibly loud, abrasive person. She doesn’t deal very well at being told what to do, which just adds to her constant clashing with Emily, and is very stubborn. Maya can be good company when she’s enjoying herself - she’s incredibly flirty, which definitely [i]never[/i] causes problems for 8th street. Maya is a short (five-one), slim Korean woman with dyed red-brown hair. She often dresses in a cuter style, which completely clashes with her bitchy personality.[/indent]

[indent][b]Sound Manipulation[/b]: Maya’s main spell, she can create sound waves and manipulate already existent sounds. She primarily uses this to emit powerful waves of sound waves that cause physical damage, either in a burst of sound in a radius around her or a more directed but slightly weaker blast from her hands. These sound blasts knock people back and cause all sorts of damage. She also uses it distort already existing sounds. She can make a sound incredibly loud and grating to the point it causes auditory damage, mess up how something sounds so it's unrecognizable, and the like. 

[b]Sand Blast[/b]: Similar to how she uses direct sound wave blasts, Maya can create and control sand and send out a powerful blast of it from her hands. This is only from her hands, and a limited amount of sand, but it’s strong enough to hurt - and blind if it hits the eyes.

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Called Amy by Americans, but known as [i]Aiko[/i] by Kura. She is a second-generation Japanese immigrant who was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. She grew up with other siblings that her parents thought were better than her, and they neglected her needs, which was unsuitable for the girl's development. She grew up being rebellious and acting out in any way she could, which led to her spending many afternoons in detention or suspended.  However, the Nakamura family moved to St. Portwell as a teenager, and she came across a mysterious kanabō ... and it spoke to her when she touched it. 

It was very spooky, but Amy kept it hidden underneath her bed of weird interest in it, realizing that the supernatural was real. Eventually, she met Kura Yoshida, and the two became best friends. The two became far closer when the Stygian Snake attacked, and they were forced to fight for their lives. However, they were saved by the Sycamore Tree Coven, and eventually, the two joined. Amy grabbed the kanabō, then gained the powers of the Oni and used them against the Stygian Snake, being there when the thing was defeated and sealed into a tree. However, Kura returned to Japan afterward.

Amy remained in America, keeping in touch with Kura, and became an MMA fighter as a Strawweight fighter afterward. However, she went missing after Father Wolf murdered Kura, and when she returned she immediately joined the 8th Street Coven for mysterious reasons (She claims is to get a shot at the bastard that killed her friend). Amy is very short at five feet even and is very athletically fit, with muscles she forged by years of going to the gym.[/indent]

[b]Abstraction:[/B]
Agent - [i]The Oni's Club.[/i]
[indent]In ancient Japan, three powerful Apparitions that called themselves Onis were defeated by old [i]Oni-Kariudo[/i] (Demon Hunters) and sealed inside a kanabō. The Nakamura family kept this kanabō until modern times when it was merely a family heirloom... however, this family heirloom grants whoever's holding it their power. Empowered by the Club, Amy possesses superhuman strength and durability that allows her to toss someone effortlessly, flip over a car with one hand, and tank supernatural attacks. The kanabō itself is supernaturally durable, allowing Amy to unleash devastating attacks without fear of damaging the weapon. In addition, it grants her tactile pyrokinesis, enabling her to generate fire only at the touch range. She channels this pyromancy into her strikes, which can inflict severe burns.

However, as Amy fights, the Onis can exert their influence upon Amy and thus channel more power into her. They fuel her rage, and eventually, she will go utterly [i]berserk[/i], turning into a rampaging beast that can be [i](vaguely)[/i] directed at a target (and the ones close to it). The longer Amy fights, the more powerful she becomes; her strength, durability, and pyrokinesis will increase to exponential levels as her pain will be numbed, and she'll be able to ignore her injuries as she fights. It is unknown if there is any limit to how strong she can become. However, there's only so long she can be berserk, and eventually, her body will give out as she collapses due to exhaustion.[/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Native of Los Angeles, Violet and her best friend Pink (though they call each other sisters) drifted from town to town and ended up in St. Portwell because once they turned 18, they were put out. Violet grew up the pariah and outcast of her family and peers because she was born intersex. She has a woman's general appearance and shape to the point where she's [i]unmistakably[/i] female but was born with male genitals. When growing up, Violet was excessively mocked and shunned for this feature because regardless of [i]what[/i] she did, people always found out, and she could never escape it. She, in time, learned that regardless of what was between her legs, she [i]was[/i] a woman and dressed excessively provocatively and feminine to show the world. 

If the weather allows it, Violet would dress in the most racy outfits possible (booty shorts, crop tops, mini-skirts that, if they were shorter, would get her arrested for indecent exposure), except she would keep that little shame in between her legs hidden. Violet is used to living on the fringes of society, as she had to steal, cheat, and other [i]unspeakable[/i] things to ensure that she and her sister had food in their stomach and a place to sleep (even if it was the floor most of the time). 

Violet and Pink finally settled in St. Portwell, where the two became strippers at some trashy gig named Veni Vedi Veni, where she had to shake ass to put food on the table. Violet is half African-American, half Brazilian, with light-caramel skin, and usually has her hair dyed some color (before, it was lavender, but she dyed it hot-pink). She stands five-seven feet tall and is very skinny due to her ridiculous genetics and her... career choice. The woman is flirty, firey, and loves to make jokes... frequently taking things too far.[/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Pink is Violet's best friend (though they call each other sisters) and, much like her, was born and raised in Los Angeles. Her parents weren't the best, so Pink spent her youth rolling with other troubled youth. Pink was very used to the inside of a police car that usually took her home to her parents after she committed a crime or two. She's also used to Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall as sometimes the judge wasn't so lenient on the young girl. Eventually, her parents just gave up on her, and the second she turned 18, she was put out. With her best friend, they drifted from place to place and ended up in St. Portwell. 

She does [i]not[/i] like to think about what she did for food and shelter, and staying in homeless shelters gave her a lot of things to forget. Eventually, she and her sister became a stripper at Veni Vedi Veni, where she worked with her sister, Violet. Pink is African-American and usually keeps her hair natural, albeit dyed hot pink. She's skinny and dresses conservatively, making the two stick out[i] more[/i].[/indent]

Adjoined - [i]The Tantalizing Mist.[/i]
[indent]Pink is Adjoined to [url=https://i.imgur.com/4Ol3i0o.jpg]Deniza[/url], a mysterious and silent Apparition, which she says also conveniently found her around the time Violet adjoined to Lightning Girl! This Apparition allows Pink to use her Abstraction by Proxy, which is the ability to generate a bright pink, sparkling mist. This mist can be manipulated by Pink telekinetically and, if inhaled, has a unique effect: it induces illusions/hallucinations of what the person desires the most. These illusions will be incredibly realistic and convincing, being able to manipulate [i]all[/i] five senses and can be interacted with as if they were [i]actual[/i]. As long as they are in her mist, the illusion will persist; however, they can break the trance if they can tell that it's just an illusion (or know about Pink's abstraction). Pink herself is immune to the effects of the mist, and by focusing on someone in her mist, she can see and interact with the illusion much like they do - confusing them [i]further[/i]. This Abstraction bypasses [i]all[/i] Emotional-Fields long as it's inhaled.[/indent][/cell][/row][row][/row][row][cell][h2][b]Annabelle[color=2e2c2c].[/color]Heart[/b][/h2][/cell][cell][/cell][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/s4hlqBY.jpg[/img]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]A friend of Miranda and Jacqueline, whom they roped into the 8th Street Coven, Annabelle was originally a native of St. Portwell. She lived a lovely life with her younger sister Sophia and was an artist (She got paid [i]handsomely[/i] for drawing pictures of people's specific... [i]interests[/i]). After joining the 8th Street Coven, she was given an artifact allowing her to psychically control birds. Annabelle had little issue with 8th Street's bullying of St. Portwell's magical scene as she was getting paid and wanted to dominate it to make it safer for her little sister. However, a marble urn she was carrying was broken during 8th Street's faithful battle with Greenwood in the temple underneath St. Portwell over the many artifacts. It exploded with a mysterious black mist that Annabelle inhaled. She was infected with a mysterious curse known as The Hunger. 

The Hunger transformed her from a [url=https://i.imgur.com/DqpShBq.jpg]regular gal[/url] to a freakishly tall creature (at eight feet tall) that is near skeletal with two horns on the side of her head, sunken yellow eyes and long spindly claws. Worst of all, Annabelle has [i]fits[/i] of hunger for human flesh and will become increasingly rabid until she eats someone. Emily has been letting her out into other dimensions to let her eat a few people and return to keep her quelled - however, Annabelle desperately wants to be cured so she can return to normal. Annabelle stays in the 8th Street Mansion, but when Emily isn't aware, Annabelle sometimes ventures out at night, putting on a robe and a deer-skull mask.[/indent]
