On the outside looking in, Lilith is one of the most happy, socially awkward people that you could ever meet. Always saying something goofy, and having a way with words, she's the kind of girl to have a handful of friends - though she prefers spending her time alone. Having social anxiety is perhaps the reason for her social awkwardness, which makes it hard for her to pick up on social ques, or integrate herself into group settings. She may come off as a bitch from time to time; Rather this is because of her sarcastic remarks or the way she rolled her eyes - well, that's up to you.
The fun, somewhat shy, bubbly side is the mask that Lilith wears on a day to day basis. However, that's the cover-up that she puts on. The truth is, Lilith suffers from depression. The girl tends to keep her emotions bottled inside and simply does her best to release them through writing, studying, and marijuana usage. A people pleaser at heart, Lilith will bite her tongue until she simply cannot any longer. This causes her to 'blow up' on people, leaving her to feel guilty about it later.
Lilith is a very loyal person, and will do practically anything for her friends. She doesn't trust or get attached to too many people. Second chances are rare, and do not come easily. A promise means everything, and she will never break one. Lilith is honest to her core, and her respect is earned. She has no time for cruel or false intentions, and expects people to treat her with that same respect.
She is typically found writing in her journals or listening to music. With a close emotional connection to the night sky, Lilith enjoys spending hours outside at night staring at the stars. An even stronger connection to the ocean, she has no hesitation with driving to the coast for the weekend. Stubborn as can be, she sometimes has trouble accepting things as how they are. Her witty remarks often get her called sharp tongued; her dark humor winds up in her getting called crazy here and there.
The young woman hates drama, gossip, and any other thing of the sort - though she has no problem listening to it. She just doesn't want to be an actual part of it. Of course, if you ask her how she is doing, you will receive a "great" and a goofy thumbs up. Not being able to express herself truthfully angers her to no end, though, just like her true feelings, she doesn't let it show. In short, the girl is a half read book. To know her, you must first know the whole story.
History:
TRIGGER WARNING: Suicidal ideation, self harm, and very brief mentions of drug use.
Born in the Underworld, Lilith was left by Trivia on her biological father's door step, with a letter attached to the woven basket she was left in. Confused, the young man gave the child to his sister, Claire, who was unable to have children and raised Lilith on her own. Claire had grown up hearing whispers from her grandparents that gods sought out members of their family to have children with, and more importantly - that she and her brother did not share the same mother, for his mother was the Norse Goddess, Frigga. Claire put the letter up for safe keeping, knowing that one day Lilith would be heading off to Camp Jupiter.
Claire was always open with the fact that Lilith was 'adopted'. but never really told her who her parents were. It didn't cause any resentment for Lil, but it did raise a lot of questions. The young woman has seen shadows out of the corner of her eye, and heard whispers in her ears for as long as she can remember. Claire sent her to a child psychologist who ultimately wound up at a loss on what to do. Lilith continued to see strange things. One of the most common was the shadowy figure of a woman outside her bedroom window each night. Sometimes, Lilith would swear that the shadow figure was watching her. Other nights, the shadow would be chasing the monsters and other bad guys away.
Two weeks before Lilith's tenth birthday, Claire planned an early birthday celebration in their back yard. A picnic - just the two of them. Lil didn't understand why they were celebrating her birthday so early, but that didn't matter. She was getting to spend a nice spring afternoon with her mother, munching on her favorite foods and snacks. After the birthday wishes' were wished and the cake was eaten, Claire made sure that Lilith was safely buckled in the car before beginning the drive to Oakland Hills. Over the course of the next few days, they drove from North Carolina, all the way to California. Claire did her best to describe to a very young Lilith that her grandmother was a goddess, and how her mother also was. How their family had always been chosen for strange things like these that they couldn't quite explain. When they arrived at the Wolf House, Claire gave Lil a backpack of supplies that included the letter that Trivia had left with her when she was born.
Lilith trained with Lupa for a total of three weeks, and then made her journey to Camp Jupiter. Upon her arrival, Lilith gave the letter that her godly mother had written all those years ago to the then Praetors of Camp Jupiter. They revealed her godly ancestry to her: Daughter of Trivia with Frigg as her legacy. Whispers washed over the crowd that had gathered for the Praetors decision. She was placed in the fifth cohort almost immediately.
After her arrival at Camp Jupiter, Lilith's powers began to manifest themselves quickly. While she didn't mind being in the lowest cohort, Lilith knew that she could do better - even at just ten years old. Still, she made the best of it. The young girl began to learn Tarot from an older son of Trivia that was placed in the Fifth cohort at the time. Visions of a distant future began appearing in her dreams the closer she got to her half-brother. A few weeks before Lilith's twelfth birthday, her half-sibling was sent out on a quest with a few other members of their cohort. Lil had a dream the same night that they were all in incredible danger. She woke in the early hours of the morning, rushing to tell her friends near by. She had guessed a few things right before with her visions and dreams, but never nothing this serious. Her friends convinced her to go to the Centurion anyway. The Centurion then took her to the Praetors, whom they all begged for an audience and to listen to Lilith's warning. It wasn't an easy feat to get them to listen, but ultimately in the end, the Praetors agreed to send out a rescue party. Due to Lilith's quick need to inform, the Legion was able to recover all of their members safely. This earned Lilith a promotion to the fourth Legion.
While both honored and welcome, Lil's promotion did not come without it's challenges. Her premonitions started to freak out other campers. Her Norse ancestry began to get her bullied in her new cohort. At just thirteen years old, Lilith found herself feeling what one could only describe as depressed. She threw herself in to more of her studies, studying more Tarot and beginning to learn bone throwing as a form of divination. Withdrawing from her peers and friends, she began to self harm. If you asked her why she started physically harming herself, she wouldn't be able to tell you why. She hadn't heard from Claire in what felt like forever, and was beginning to feel more and more alone. Lilith began to have even darker thoughts; her visions were getting more and more confusing. Sleep was hard. Not freaking out everyone she spoke to was harder. In an attempt to fit in, Lilith began to look more into more 'Roman' forms of Divination. She began with weather watching, and then bird watching. While her mentors agreed that her ability to divinate was impressive, it still did nothing to keep bullies away.
Lilith earned her promotion to the third cohort when she was chosen to go on a quest at the age of fifteen. The completion of this quest brought temporary honor to the fourth cohort. Her current Centurion personally recommended her for promotion to the third, seeing as how Lilith's visions helped them so much on their quest. This also got her promoted to Camp Augur at the same time. Lilith happily obliged, hoping that the way she would be treated in the third cohort was better than how she had been treated in the fourth.
She was half-way wrong. Some people were more harsh, others were more inclined to mind their own business. It was a double edged sword; on one hand, she was left alone - on the other, when people did bully her, it was worse.
Lilith met her godly mother, Trivia, for the first time shortly after her promotion to the third cohort. Trivia allowed her daughter to scream at her for abandoning her, to which Trivia retorted that Lilith had never been abandoned. Instead, Trivia had allowed Claire to raise Lilith in the mortal world, while she protected her in the world of shadows. In other words, Trivia was the shadow figure that Lilith had seen all of those years ago. After all of the technicalities were out of the way, Trivia gifted Lilith a book on potions & divination and sat with her a little while longer for some conversation.
Lilith eventually learned how to stand up for herself, and even made a few friends in the third cohort with time. The young woman got to see her godly mother on random occasional visits to New Rome. Somewhere along the line, her self harm became less physical and more emotional towards herself. Lil was appointed & elected as Camp Augur at the age seventeen. This seemed to boost her in some sort of strange popularity, but she never considered herself to have more than a hand full of friends.
She completed her years in the Legion at age twenty, and retired to New Rome with a newfound hope. Lil was able to find a nice house in New Rome for purchase, and shortly thereafter was able to open her Apothecary with her co-owner, Eden.
Lilith wouldn't say that she is cured from her depression, as sometimes she does still find it creeping in. However, she's relatively content these days with living in her own space, and smoking her own weed.
Godly Parent:
Trivia - Roman Goddess of magic, witchcraft, the Mist, crossroads, necromancy, the night and the moon.
Relationship to Godly Parent:
While Trivia has always been open and even proud about Lilith being her daughter, Lilith see's her as more of a close mentor and protector than anything. This isn't to say that Lilith and Trivia aren't close. Lilith just see's her mortal step-mother Claire as more of the person who raised her and earned the 'mom' title.
Abilities Pertaining to Godly Parent:
- Ghost Whisperer: Can see, hear, and talk to ghosts.
- Animal Whisperer: Lilith can speak telepathically to dogs & snakes, as they are heavily associate and believed to be the sacred animals of Hecate.
- Into the Shadows: Due to Trivia's ability to manipulate shadows, Lilith can fade into the darkness and become a shadow herself. She can only do this a few times per day, seeing as how it takes so much energy out of her. Lilith prefers to use this power at night, seeing as how Trivia's powers are stronger at night and it's easier to fade into black when it's already dark out.
- Mist Manipulation: Thanks to her mother, Lilith has a power known as Mist Manipulation, meaning that she controls the veil between the mundane and mythical worlds. For example, the young woman can make herself seem closer or further from you. She can also manipulate articles of clothing, hair color, and the features of someone's face. She can disguise objects, create new objects, or make them disappear completely from view. Lilith can basically make you see what she wants.
- Flame Keeper: Lilith can bend the element of fire to her will. The flames that come from her hands are blue, though no one really knows the reason as to why. The only thing special about the fire that she wields is it's color.
- Divination: Ever since she was little, Lilith has had prophetic dreams, moments where she 'blacks out' and has glimpses of the future, and also thoughts that are simply just not her own. Sometimes these visions and dreams can take years to come true, other times they are within the next day or so. She has no control over when she gets these premonitions or dreams. Lilith has the divine power of being able to communicate with both the universe, and the gods. Other than her natural abilities, she does this through tarot and bone throwing, as well as the traditional Roman practices of bird and weather watching.
- Empathy: Lilith is an empath, through and through. Her gut feeling and general intuition have never steered her wrong. Actions speak louder than words, and Lilith has always been able to see right through whatever act people are putting on. She knows when someone she is speaking to is angry, happy, sad, or anything in between. She also knows when she's being lied to. If you're ever hanging out with Lilith and she thinks it's time to leave - you should follow.
- Banishment: Lilith has the ability to banish up to three enemies to different dimensional planes. This spell lasts for thirty minutes. When banishing a target, Lilith either sends them back to their home realm, or the 'Shadow Realm' for holding. After the spell breaks, the target will return to it's previous location. Even though she can banish three targets in total, she must do a different spell each time she wishes to banish someone/something. (The shadow realm is just a black room, with no ending, and no beginning. The closer you walk to the walls, the further they seem away from you).
- Wither and Bloom: Lilith can suck the life out of anything living and natural, and can also give that energy back as she see's fit. She can use this power to heal people - though she isn't strong enough to bring anyone back from the brink of death with it. Lilith can also heal herself by siphoning energy off of others. If she chooses to draw energy from another living being, the affects on them can range from tiredness, vomiting, or premature aging.
- Feign Death: Lilith can put herself or one willing target into a dream like state that heavily resembles death. When in this state, your body becomes cool to the touch, your chest stops rising and falling with your breaths, and you're absolutely not going to move. Lilith can use this power to prolong life threatening injuries until she can get her friends back to safety.
- Enchantment: The ability to gift or curse random objects. Lilith cannot 'enchant' people directly. She cannot enchant large items like houses or cars.
- P O T I O N S: Through reading various potion books, grimoires, lessons with her mother, practicing with her siblings, and doing some experimenting Lilith is a master at brewing certain potions. She sells them for profits person to person, and also at her and Eden's Apothecary. She also uses them to cause havoc from time to time.
- Jolly Good Fellow: Laughing potion. Takes fifteen minutes to make. Puts the drinker into a fit of hysterical laughter for an hour. Green in color. Side affects include laughing.
- Heartthrob: Love potion. Takes a week to make, and lasts for two weeks. Red in color. The drinker will fall in to a deep infatuation with the first person they see after drinking the potion. Side affects include two hundred missed calls, sweet texts that make you want to puke, theft of all your hoodies and an annoying human pet that won't leave your side for a full fourteen days.
- Happy Thoughts: Calming potion. Takes two days to make, lasts for eight hours. Clear in color. Drinker will experience a calming affect that will eventually result in a blissful, light sleep. This potion helps to calm the persons nerves after a trauma or before a test. It won't make you forget what is making you upset, but rather help you to handle it in a way that doesn't appear to be a mental break down. Perfect for people with anxiety.
- Draught of Truth: Truth potion. Two weeks creation process, lasts until all three questions are answered, and appears a milky white in color. The drinker of this potion will have to answer three questions completely honest. Chose your questions wisely.
- Nauseous Nonsense: Puking potion. Three hours creation time; lasts fifteen minutes. Appears orange in color, and produces a foul odor that is usually compared to that of gym socks. Anyone who drinks this potion will experience uncontrolled vomiting for a full fifteen minutes immediately after drinking it.
- Busy Bee: Energy potion. Takes one day to make, lasts for three days. Blue in color. Affects include absolutely no sleep for a full seventy-two hours. After the affects wear off, this potion will cause the drinker to sleep for a full three days afterward.
- Though all of these potions have their certain colors, all of them are nearly tasteless. Some people may experience a slight after taste of strawberries from the love potion, lemons from the energy potion, etc.
- These are the potions that Lilith specializes in, and are guaranteed to work. If you need a different potion made, you are more than welcome to ask. However the price may be high, and it will take a while to make through a hectic process of trial and error. While these potions do take a second or two to make, Lilith does try to keep of few of each in stock at all times. She's always looking to expand her skill set and is constantly working on mastering a new potion. Any one who helps test 'new' potions will receive a discount on their next order.
Legacy:
Frigg: Norse goddess of prophecy, marriage, rain, motherhood, fertility, family, clairvoyance, wisdom, and fate.
Legacy Abilities:
- Clairvoyance: While not a power in and of itself, having Frigg as a legacy only makes Lilith's ability to communicate with the gods, universe, and 'other side' even that more powerful.
- Water Manipulation: Since Frigg is the goddess of rain, Lilith can manipulate fresh water.
- Sixth Sense: Has a weird sense of being able to tell when people are pregnant.
- Languages: Lil is 'naturally' fluent in: English, Spanish, Latin, Ancient Greek, German, Russian, French, and Icelandic - as it is the closest modern ancestor to the Norse language.
Cohort:
Former member of the fifth, fourth and third cohorts.
Position in the Legion:
Current camp Augur.
Fatal Flaw:
Hero Complex - the want an need to save everyone, regardless of how bad they are.
Weapons:
- Imperial Gold throwing knives. Each of these are disguised as three individual rings on her right hand. The rings are located on her index, middle, and ring fingers. They are enchanted to always come back to Lilith.
- A spatha by the name of Shadow, disguised as a pendant on her necklace. The necklace has a magnetic clasp, making it easy to remove quickly.
- A pugio, which she has named Fenrir's Fang, or Fang for short. It is made of Stygian Iron with Imperial Gold inlays. Fang is disguised as a bracelet on her right wrist.

- Uses wolf rib bones to deviate with.
- Lilith does smoke weed, and tends to mix it with other herbs - such as dried lavender.
- Her all time favorite food is Crab Rangoon. This information can be used in times of bargaining and can be used as forms of payment.
- Likes hanging out in the woods for literally no reason.
- Cannot shoot a bow & arrow to save her life.
- Obsessed with the 80's movie 'Dirty Dancing'. She can tell you ever filming location, knows all of the lore on the actors, listens & dances to the soundtrack all the time, etc.
- Favorite liquor is tequila. She isn't a big drinker, and does it mostly socially.
- Listens to any and all music, so long as it isn't Opera.
- Is extremely self-aware.
- While not the most confident person, Lilith has learned her worth over time.
- Enjoys playing video games, studying divination, playing the acoustic guitar, going for hikes, and helping people with their problems. She's also a sucker for all forms of water, really, and it's very hard to keep her away from rivers, lakes and streams. Loves thunderstorms as well.
- Considers herself an Appalachian Green Chaos witch with Norse influences.
- Speaks with a heavy southern Appalachian accent. She calls people baby, honey, sweetheart, dear, etc. She also has a tendency to use words like y'all, yonder, and drop the 'g' sound of the end of some of her words. Her a sounds are typically more drawn out. Certain words are 'mispronounced' due to how she speaks. Lil also uses random southern sayings in her day to day speech.
- While she isn't the daughter of Ceres, Lilith enjoys growing a plethora of plants and herbs at home.
- Aside from potions, Lilith also makes and sells tinctures, balms, salves and ointments of the magical variety.
- Being a natural empath got to be a bit too much for Lilith when she was about fourteen years old. She commissioned one of the Vulcan kids to make her a labradorite pendant and silver chain. Once the piece was finished, Lilith enchanted it to 'dull' her power so that she could just feel her own feelings. The necklace is enchanted so that saying one simple word under her breath - Tilfinning - she can turn this enchantment on and off. Lilith now wears this necklace 24/7/365. She is the only person that knows of the necklaces magical quality.
- Inspired heavily by the works of Halsey and Sasha Alex Sloan.
- I ain't gotta put no passwords 'cause I'm the one who wrote the damn lore.
