Beth absentmindedly held her coffee, both hands lightly grasping the cup while taking small sips. The homey, bitter taste always made the otherwise uptight doctor at ease, in mind and body, more than how she normally appears. Noticing the other woman look at her direction, not aware that she was looking directly at her, Beth returned a curious stare but was caught off guard when the woman smiled at her briefly. "Was I staring too much?" She thought. Her demeanor tensed however when the other woman turned around, eyes on her. Beth could somewhat hear what the conversation was about but the last bit, she heard.

"Oh, I-I'm sorry" Beth coughed slightly at the, from what she could only describe as an unintentional compliment. With a soft smile, she regains her composure. "I believe I wont make for a flattering image at this state. Unless you want something reminiscent to a wet duckling, then I may be a suitable reference." she meant it as a lighthearted quip whilst self consciously adjusting her glasses and the strands of her still damp hair from the rain.

Beth caught the brunette woman's sudden shift, she found it strange how her mood suddenly swings in the midst of things. Though hoping to ask what was wrong, she didn't go through thinking it would be too rude to pry, specially by a random person she'd barely known. "Well, I can attest that they have the best cheese cake in town." Beth smiles, moving forward with the chit chat. "That or I may just have very plain tastes."

Even as a Londoner Beth never has been a fan of gloomy weathers but the rain right now surely feels like home. She let herself gaze out the window from her work desk, chin resting on one hand, lost way beyond the droplets that trickle down her window and was in deep unbridled contemplation. She had woken up early that morning, around 4 in fact, and started working on her medical journals and research. It was hard to break from both habits since she started med school, or it's just her impulsive workaholism rousing up again in this mellow, lonely day like it always does.

Rhys has had enough however, hopping up her desk and rubbing his furry head under her chin. It made her nose crinkle when his tail lightly touch her nose. Beth returned him a gentle petting.

"Not a fan of the weather too?"

"Maaow."

Beth has yet to experience a lot in this country, check out the sight and appreciate the sunny side of things but she didnt come here for a vacation in the first place. Taking care of Linda has its drawbacks and challenges. A whole year and that old woman has yet to recognize her, let alone call her by her name. To her she was "Randy", thinking about her son who went missing more than a decade ago. Beth's biological half brother.

The doctor briefly gazes out the window, her hand still unmindfully petting her feline companion. "Seems like the weather's not letting up anytime soon. What do you think?"

"Maow."

Beth decided to get some coffee that morning as she hadn't gone out in the past 3 days. She thought of taking a break for awhile. Rhys, sitting still at the corner of the desk, observes his human organize her things before she leaves. She slipped her laptop in her bag, in case she ever felt like working at the cafe. Donning on her coat, she pets Rhys goodbye. "Watch over the office for me while I'm gone, ok? I'll be back soon" Rhys was blissfully grooming himself when she left the clinic.

Her old beat up Camry needed some working to make it start that morning as the weather was relatively chilly. After stepping it up and muttering a few curses, the thing finally started and Beth heaves a sigh of victory. After finding a convenient enough place to park, which he never always had a problem with living in a small town, she opens an umbrella and walked towards the cafe. When she got inside she gently shook her umbrella dry, placing it on the rack and adjusting her barett, walked towards the counter.

"Good Morning." she greeted the barista in her usual formal and polite demeanour. The barista also greeted her with some familiarity, as she regularly comes in at the cafe ever so often, either working or just taking it easy. "A dark medium roast please. Hot."

Beth couldn't tell if it's just her but the cafe seemed to be a bit quieter than normal. There's the usual soft sounds of idle chatter, but maybe it's because she never usually came in this early in the day. She abruptly turned around and caught the attention of someone talking albeit, way above the noise range of the establishment.

To Beth, a year in sanctuary isn't long enough to get acquainted or at least be familiar with the locals. Though she had seen or even interacted with some, it seems like there's still a few new and unfamiliar faces around town.

Beth observes the woman, unbothered and soaking wet but she didn't seem to care. She was more concerned, however, about the other stranger's business which, the doctor found the whole interaction between them quite amusing. The one she's talking to however, Beth knows. She could've seen her around the cafe more than once, a very distinct woman she thought, standing out from the usual Sanctuary denizen. She wonders what her intentions are in a place otherwise too conforming for the likes of her. Beth wasn't one to judge though but, was just mainly curious.

The doctor has a way of analyzing and observing things, and the way she does it, is very obvious than she wishes. She was unmindfully staring at this point, deep in her thoughts, not even noticing the barista delivering her coffee on her table.

Beth

Name:
Dr. Bethany "Beth" Rowland

Birthday:
Sept 17, 1992

Age: 29

Appearance:
Averagely tall (5'6), with a slim build, Beth appears to be a a woman who's proper and well put together. For one, it is obvious by the way she dresses herself, usually in a more smart casual fashion. Normally this is her default wardrobe though on some occasions she'd wear more casual clothes, e.g slightly loose graphic/printed shirts tucked in high waisted mom jeans/slacks as opposed to her usual buttoned up dress shirts/blouses and skirts.

Occupation:
Resident Physician. Owns a small clinic below her apartment complex.

Short Bio:

Beth has only been residing in Sanctuary for the past year. She originally came from Bristol, UK. She lived a relatively well off life, with her family owning a farm. Both her parents, who are both physicians themselves decided to settle down just a year before she was born.

Though most of her childhood was a relatively normal one, a very significant turning point in her life happened at the age 13. During a family trip that she herself coaxed her parents to go to, they got into a violent accident. Beth luckily survived, sadly her parents did not. She missed the funeral after being in a 2 week coma. Just the thought of losing her parents and missing the funeral after had, and still, tormented Beth. The tragedy became one of her ultimate regrets.

A few months later while being attended to by a relative, Beth found out that she was adopted. Though this added to the pain of the recent tragedy, the news mostly left her wondering for years. At the back of her mind she was mainly curious; about what they were like, what they thought of her and wondered if she could seek them out. Probably as a way to get closure and maybe, get to know more about this other life she would've had.

At 26, Beth graduated in UCL, and for a time worked as a physician in UK. Around August 2020, Beth got a call from a woman from Colorado claiming to have knowledge of her real family, which in the years prior Beth deliberately looked for and sought out for. She waited five years to get a call and now here it was.

It turns out this woman was her aunt, and just wanted to let her know her mother was still alive. Apparently she made attempts to contact her for years but her adopted parents hid that from her. According to her aunt, her mother actively sought her out for years, kept most of her info and did some researching herself just to find out how she was doing.

Beth flew to Sanctuary, Colorado to see her biological mother, Linda, but was heartbroken to learn how terribly ill she was. She had been suffering a severe case of dementia, and have been living as a recluse for years. Their initial reunion was bittersweet but with no one to watch out for her, Beth decided to stay and live in Sanctuary, leaving her life in the UK, to care for the only family she have left, even though most of her life she was never there.

Misc:
- Drives a 2006 Camry
- Adopted a stray cat named Rhys. Used to follow her around whenever she gets groceries. Usually hangs out around the clinic.
- Has a younger half brother, who ran away never to be seen or heard from again. Believed to have been missing for 11 years.

Witch/Warlock Coven RP

I'll bite. Interested to see where this goes.
EDIT: Here's my character. Might need to tweak on the spells/abilities a tiny bit after doing some more research.

Name: Alys Ó Mordha
Sex: Female
Age: 24

Appearance: Tall, adequately slim, mysterious and regal. Alys is seen as a worldly young woman, determined and dedicated to her study and craft. She is born to a bloodline of druids predating back to pre Anglo-Saxon England.
Appearance wise, she has strong and sharp features, long dark hair, green eyes and a pallid complexion.

Powers:
- Pagan Heritage - Alys is a descendant of the ancient and now dwindling Ó Mordha bloodline, a long line of priestesses/druids dedicated to the practice of nature magic. Alys has a unique spiritual affinity to nature, and has the ability to contact and communicate with the forests and it's beings, in the literal and figurative sense.
- Cipher - unique ability to peer through the spiritual energy of the world to manipulate other beings. Can be done either for negative or positive purposes.
- Celtic Enchantment - The ability to create glyphys, scrolls, imbue magic on objects and decipher runic symbols.
- Shape Shifter - can shape-shift into a malicious swarm of insects.

Spells:

- Teleportation - by the use of glyphs (or cypher abilities). Can only teleport on a certain location where one or more of these glyphs are active.
- Druidic Healing - healing physical ailments/self regenaration, through her pagan magic ability.
- Empathy -(Cipher) manipulate a person or a group's mental/biological senses, to make them see, touch, feel a certain emotion or vision. Will require an amount of concentration on her part in order to work. A brief shift on emotions would require little to no effort, reality alteration would require a great deal of concentration, to a gravely dangerous extent even.
-TBA
