Esme Ivy Woods
-
Name: Esme Ivy Woods
Age: 21
Height: 5'6" (168cm)
Figure: Slim
Personality: Esme doesn't appear as a friendly individual. It isn't that she isn't capable of being friendly, but rather that she doesn't go out of her way to socialize with random people. She isn't shy or reserved like some assume due to her lack of interaction with others, she just prefers to be left to her own devices. She's a fairly laid back person regarding most things, but she does have a small temper when the right buttons are pushed. She isn't one to shy away from confrontations or call people out on their bullshit when she sees it. It never really made her a popular person in high school, but she never cared about that to begin with.
Esme is a loyal and protective friend - to those she considers her friends at least - and can be judgmental of others, though she is often self-critical as well. She is far from being infallible though and has made a few incorrect assumptions and mistakes before. It's hard for her to apologize to others, with the only exception being those she is particularly close to.
However, if a friend were to ever betray Esme, they would find it difficult to repair the damage to the relationship.
She hates to lie, but will do so if it is necessary. Her opinions and overall manner can come across very blunt because she doesn't bother with the normal pleasantries of social interactions. Esme dislikes the nonsense of having to pretend to be something she's not in order to gain superficial friends.
Quick History: Esme is the only daughter of a single mother. She's never met her father due to the fact that her mother was in college when she was knocked up by her boyfriend of the time (who obviously didn't stick around). Esme's mother raised her along with Esme's grandmother after returning to her hometown. There was nothing extraordinary in Esme's life. She was a normal child and grew up as a normal girl. She did normal things; shopping, partying, boyfriends, studying, and everything else that one would expect of a college student. She didn't believe in anything supernatural, so when she met her roommate, she was constantly barraged with all sorts of new age nonsense; Wiccan spell books, healing crystals, Tibetan healing bowls. If it was new age her roommate was into it.
RP notes
Worked as bartender at a club; GunmetalSeal
Studies; Journalism with a minor in Anthropology
Esme fudged up the summoning, so;
until both parties agree that they no longer have a need/desire to work together, they could constantly renegotiate their situation without having to go through the whole process of making another Pact.
rarely used sealing spell meant to contain an individual's magical talent/abilities.
usually reserved for criminals
flawed due to alterations
Put in place by fairly powerful/skilled person
More for magical suppression/protection

- Mizinki Blossoms
- "There's a tree we call mizinki that produces a fruit that is not only delicious, but very useful in many cordials and balms. Before it develops fruit though, the mizinki tree produces brilliant scarlet flowers with cores that look as if they were dusted with gold. They only open for a few days, but during those days they are spectacular."

- Magical bloodline thins to uselessness within 4-5 generations (102-127 years).
Demons
- Strong natural magical ability
- extra dimensional beings
- Do not require items for spell casting like witches.
- Magically stronger than witches.
- Powerful demons can travel between their dimension to the mortal/human world.
- Only demons of noble rank or higher can travel between dimensions.
- A demon's power determines their rank.
- The most powerful demon is the king/emperor.
- Commoners have magical ability as well but are weaker.
- Lesser demons are monsters/beasts with no magical ability, but can be controlled by powerful demons and are used for battles.
- still stuck in in an era of archaic technology; aka demon renaissance
- are pretty much ageless, so change isn't as quick compared to mortals who do age.
- reproduce same way as mortals
- Demons used to be able to travel between dimensions freely until the 1600's.
- Current demon ruler halted all travel between worlds.

Magic
-
- Natural law of magic is that everything comes at a cost
- A demon cannot freely gift a human with magic without something in return
- Pact
- demon must answer a summons, an annoying tug that won't go away
- binding agreement between mortal and demon that links them
- Once a deal is made, it has to be completed.
- while under contract a demon can't harm a the mortal who summoned them, at least not without consequences.
- demon unable to return to home realm until fulfilled.
- conclusion of the contract sends demon back
- it can be voided if someone dies, payment isn't completed within a time period (mortal's death if refusal to pay), or a more powerful demon manages to break the contract by creating a new one.
- if the mortal has any offspring, the demon isn't linked to any future generations
- currently, only a witch can summon a demon to the mortal realm.
- Has to be a spell for a specific demon
- True Name
- The Use Name carries power in itself, but not to the level of a True Name.
- True Name could compel appearance without inflicting a Pact.
- True Name isn't really words, but a summary of a beings very existence, mind, body, and soul. It can only be given, never taken by force, and once it is known, a mage can always see through any disguise the other wears, communicate if they know a spell for it, scry upon the Named, and cast any non harmful spell upon through Named with 100% effectiveness. Exchanging Names creates an awareness in both of the others feelings and mood, though not thoughts. If one were to be hurt, the other would know
