I like her. I think Iva would have a great time straightening her out.

Meet the dreaded Yappy Dog Mistletoe, Witch extraordinarie!
Name: Aeva Redan, "Mistletoe".
Age: 15
Appearance:
Weapon of choice: Staff and 1-Hand Crossbow. Ceremonial Dagger.
Armor of choice: Robes, warm coat, mommy's mittens and scarf when cold. Enchanted leather cuirass underneath.
Strengths/Abilities:
Weaknesses/Hindrances:
Personality: Oftentimes compared to a small dog due to her braggart and abrasive nature, only to shrink away at the first sign of trouble, Aeva is an individual who uses a thin mask of thorns to hide deep insecurities. Inexperienced and overtaken with the magnitude of the world and her tasks at hand, nevertheless she is a fairly resolute and if pressed, a quick-thinker individual. It is in these moments when the clouds that usually haze her mind reveal down-to-earth wisdom. Friends are precious because the world is cruel, and as such she is a team player when the chips are down (and not nearly as craven as everyone, including herself, thinks).
History: Aeva was born in a village hidden by masses of forests, Wichita. Here the ways of Old were still strong, and Witches and other folk intertwined in peace. Aeva was the fruit of such union. Her mother was a witch, and her grandmother as well. As well as the grandmother of her grandmother. His father was a woodcarver, and he knew the forest like the palm of his hand, always procuring her a trinket or two with engraving whenever he felt spoiling her.
Her education was fairly strict, as soon as it was found the spark of sorcery within her. But before she could light wisps and try to curse the neightbour's cat (that one ended up horribly) she was force-fed an exquisite education of history, laws and philosophy. As well as how to heal her grandfather's sore back from time to time. She resented the more active fellow kids of her village, herself having a sort of helicopter of a mother.
Until the event happened. A grimoire, one of the most appreciated tomes of magic had disappeared. Her mother was nowhere to be found, and blame was shifted on her family. But Aeva couldn't believe it had been her mother. Some clues indicated an stranger. But with a saddened heart, she and her father were exiled and decided to settle in the cities of men, more specifically Rothenburg, far away from her homeland, where her father could earn a pretty good living by carving the furniture of the capricious wealthy people of the capital.
And Aeva...tried to find some other kind of venture. She dreaded to be kept indoors any longer. Hearing of the hunters' guild and the rumours of creatures, the young witch set her mind into monster hunter, because maybe, just maybe she could find a hint or two about her missing mother or the grimoire.
Meet the dreaded Yappy Dog Mistletoe, Witch extraordinarie!
Name: Aeva Redan, "Mistletoe".
Age: 15
Appearance:
She is waifish, and barely 4 feet tall.Weapon of choice: Staff and 1-Hand Crossbow. Ceremonial Dagger.
Armor of choice: Robes, warm coat, mommy's mittens and scarf when cold. Enchanted leather cuirass underneath.
Strengths/Abilities:
- Divination: Aeva is skilled at discerning the future with the ancient witch art. She usually tricks peasants with a crystal ball and cards. Real divination is made with entrails, duh, so she saves the good stuff for those she can trust. Plus chickens are costly, and that's for a basic one. Spirits forbid if she has to do one of the real important ones with a cow.
- Lectured: Despite her age, and surprising isolation, she is well learned, and understands ancient scriptures and writings. Her speciality is obviously folklore and whatnot, but she has a remarkable education even in things like maths and history.
- Healing & Alchemy: Aeva has a wide knowledge of poisons, herbal remedies and ailments, courtesy of a first-grade education among witches. Definitely a keeper for prolonged expeditions with chances of injury or poisoning. Plus she is pocket sized and doesn't eat that much
- Purification Magic: Needless to say, Aeva can do the real stuff. Spells. In her case, her actual working arts consists in humble abilities to produce charms or counter curses. May not always work, but worth a shot against magical opponents.
Weaknesses/Hindrances:
- Tryhard: Let's admit it. Threatening everyone she meets with toad curses is not the way to make friends... still, she does seem to avoid the worst repercursions of it...
- Unintimidating: Mainly because the closest thing she has been to being captured by the authorities is burly fishmonger wives with strong maternal instincts. People rarely if ever take her seriously.
- Curious: The only sure way to make her do something is telling her not to do it.
- Noodly arms: The closest she can do to physical prowess is kicking people in the privates.

@Zelosse I tried to find one but I couldn't find anything like what I was picturing. Literally, just a huge vampire. Like king vampire. When I googled vampire king it came up with a bunch of pictures from Adventure Time. XP
@AtomicNut I like the idea of a druid, though we haven't specified that they exist in this world. I'm thinking maybe druids are very rare, forest dwellers who have a very finite grasp on magic.
Edit:...I have to make the joke.
I'll get the idea up tomorrow. Probably the druid.
Oh yeah, that's fine. I suppose I wasn't entirely clear with what you were asking. She can be the daughter of a witch with little/no magic abilities.
There's mixed feelings about witches in the world. A lot of people revere them and will give offerings thinking they control the weather, luck, crop growth, etc. Most are wary of them, as many of them hold a tremendous amount of power. Some people hate them, stereotyping them all as evil. Some of them are, but not all.
There is a coven of witches that is stronger than all of the rest that are the ones responsible for vampires, lycans and wendigos. Those ones are thought to live somewhere near Rothenburg but no one knows exactly where.
Well, a good witch with some magical power, or a druid which tended to the forest problems. They were hunted down for being pagans and oftimes accused to being allies of witches (there is some truth in that accusation -though. Druids would be the kind to be civil to forest dwellers, and witches count as them) long time ago. The surge in beasts would be worth of worry and investigation.
@AtomicNut
Iva is actually a daughter of a witch, though in her village there isn't anything inherently evil about witches. At least no more evil than you'd get from regular human interaction. Perhaps your character even came from my village, and was one of the less haughty and arrogant witch children there?
Sure, I could roll with that. I am not sure what the GM thinks?@Nymeria
@AtomicNut If you want your character may have some connection about my character. She actually came from a village of witches, though she herself doesn't know any magic and mostly just alchemy.
Well I kinda wanted to make actually a white sheep of a witch-spawn, but with the no magic kind of thing, the idea has been a bit shot to hell. Can always try for druid tho.
@AtomicNutThey could also be suspected of being a vampire or lycan. They could easily be a vampire, as they have spread relatively far. Lycans are less common, or at least the ones who can control their transformations are. There are witches around, but they don't usually get involved with normal humans unless they are called upon and given some sort of offering.
Well, to be honest this character would give (mostly token) offerings to witches...as an act of courtesy when travelling alleged witch territory. They after, all dwelled in the forest for far longer.
Well let's see....There are witches who are very secretive and generally stay hidden. They are known to curse people and have created many of the monsters that are running rampant.
If you want to have a character who is suspected of something, they could be uncommonly skilled with alchemy, as that is mostly related to witches, also. While it isn't the same as magic, it can create potions and poisons similar to magic. Using alchemy, you could make things like smoke bombs, poisons that cause various effects, like paralysis or hair loss, and other things people might think are magic.
The basic idea was that this person is either a pagan "druid" or a daughter of some kind of woodsman with a missing mother, and lots of stranger circumstances surrounding her missing mother.
There really aren't magic users other than witches who aren't playable characters. Alchemy is possible but it's rare and difficult to master.
Well, the idea i was mullying was that of someone who has an identity crisis, and there were rumours of being a witchspawn.
Hi, wondering if you would take a magic user.
