Core Member Sheet​

Name: Casper Benjamin Ollila
Age: 21
Gender: Nonbinary (All/Any)
Sexuality: Bisexual(?)
Occupation: Lots of odd jobs. Things like house/pet/plant sitting, dog walking, yard maintenance, working as an extra set of hands, etc. They also sometimes do a broad range of professional psychic work for friends and sell protective charms. They’re really trying to make something of themself art-wise right now.

Appearance: Casper’s a tall, gangly kid, the kind of kid your mom would want to take home and put a little meat on when you were younger. The one everybody worried about. They’re usually further drowned out by sweaters of the pink variety. Their pants tend to be spattered with paint, and the bottoms rolled up to show off their calfs. Comfy shoes are a must.

They have big features that suit their long, narrow face- Full lips, a Roman nose, and wide, dark, dark brown eyes sit comfortably on their face, with large, round circle frames to let them actually see. Their hair is a constantly windswept collection of black curls they were never taught to care for that only makes them look more deathly pale than before.

How long have they been a member?: 2 years
Character Type: Psychic dipping their toes into witchcraft
Skills/Abilities: Mediumship, psychography, psychometry, psychic healing, aura reading, protection magic, cleansing, some charm stuff

Virtues: Kind to everyone, loyal, creative
Vices: Kind enough it’s detrimental, easily overwhelmed, naive
Fears: Rejection, abandonment

History: Casper moved to town by themself three years ago. It was about half a year after that that Casper began to really come to terms with his abilities, dabbling in things of the psychic and witchcraft variety along with his art. It didn’t start off well, and the Stitch N’ Witchers helped them through a really rough patch in their life, inviting them in and giving them some real life mentors to talk to. They’ve been thriving since then, and have a nice enough place to live with a cat they love to the moon and back.

Relationships: TBA

History: Austin had just moved to this town 4 months ago, she left the town she once called home because the coven did not agree with Austin dabbling in the dark arts. Witchcraft was taught very young since it takes a while to master, but she was a quick learner and knew enough magic to keep herself safe. She frequently uses her learning for personal gain which again people frowned upon. She isn't a rude or scary person she just believes that everyone should help themselves first before others ( Probably from a past of abusive relationships/trama)

 

[MothSav]

Core Member
Name: Laurence ‘Laurie’ Billings
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Occupation: Accountant

Appearance: Dirty blonde hair, long and wavy. Caucasian, pale but stays tan from running. Hazel eyes and some freckles that have faded more as she hit her twenties. She has wide cheekbones and a long nose, but her jaw narrows down and gives her face a tapered oval shape.
Laurie is a little taller, five foot six, but it’s mostly due to good posture. She is an avid runner and stays fit. She’s only flattering herself when it comes to strength; those long fingers can’t unscrew a peanut butter jar half the time. There is a faded tattoo of a crudely drawn blue butterfly on the back of her neck, courtesy of a promise she made with her younger sister years ago.

How long have they been a member?: Seven years
Character Type: Full time psychic, part time witch
Skills/Abilities: Laurie is in tune with emotions, auras, and protective witchcraft. She also thinks she is a comedian when she plays slight of hand.

Virtues: Nurturing, hard-working, dedicated to serving other’s needs
Vices: Prone to burnout, friendly but won’t make close friends, not very flexible
Fears: Losing her loved ones, storms

History: An abrupt move due to her parents’ divorce brought Laurie to town when she was nine and her sister, Gloria, was four. They are originally from Phoenix, Arizona. Her mother worked a few jobs around town when they first arrived, but had difficulty maintaining one for too long. Laurie spent most of her childhood wrangling Gloria or finding the trick that would soothe her mother’s nerves. Unfortunately, her mother died when Laurie was eighteen. While seen as an unfortunate household accident, Laurie was the one to first find her and suspects that it was a suicide.

Laurie took over guardianship over Gloria for her sister's last few teenage years, keeping to herself and drilling away at an accounting degree. She snagged a job in the small office inside the library. Never one to make a lot of friends, Laurie was reluctant to join a craft club at first, especially due to not having any skill with the arts. She learned to enjoy a few niche projects and gained a lot of help from fellow members. Most importantly, she joined to be around people like her.

Relationships: Gloria Billings - sister

 

[MothSav]

New Member
Name: Gloria Billings
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Occupation: Grocery store clerk


Appearance: Dark brown hair, wavy and a little messy. She keeps it layered and long. Olive-toned caucasian. Wide cheekbones and a short nose that’s rounded upwards at the tip. She has a slightly oval shaped face that tapers near her jaw, and dimples. Gloria is five foot four and keeps an average build, but her exercise is limited to biking around town due to her lack of a car. She has a crudely drawn pink butterfly tattooed on her wrist, which was a promise made with her sister when they were young.

How long have they been a member?: Like, officially, maybe a few months? She shows up sometimes with Laurie, but has been coming more consistently.
Character Type: Gloria is attempting to be a witch so she can, in her words, ‘fuck with people’s shit’.
Skills/Abilities: She can pop the cap off of a beer bottle with her teeth. Gloria’s witchery is limited to small nature-focused tasks right now.

Virtues: Ferociously loyal, outgoing, life of a party
Vices: Irresponsible, attention span is erratic, eggs on a fight
Fears: Settling down and finding out she’s unhappy, looking vulnerable

History: An abrupt move due to her parents’ divorce brought Gloria to town when she was four and her sister, Laurie, was nine. They are originally from Phoenix, Arizona. Her mother worked a few jobs around town when they first arrived, but had difficulty maintaining one for too long. Gloria recalls most of her childhood as blissful and carefree, thriving under the lack of adult supervision. She was a party animal from day one and a local hellion. Her mother died in a household accident when Gloria was thirteen.
Taken into guardianship under Laurie, Gloria spiraled out in her high school years and barely graduated. She was a merciless bully and picked up some bad habits and flings. Now she’s catching up for her mistakes, but it’s hard to shake in a town this small. She slaves away at the grocery store and tries to strike up conversation with everyone while she bags groceries or rides grocery carts through the parking lot. Gloria is aware of Laurie’s skills, but is skeptical of how much of it is just intuition with a fancy name.
Eager to get in on the action anyway, Gloria tries to pick up some witchcraft. She has started eighteen fires since she began, but only two required the fire department’s assistance, which Gloria said was ‘bullshit’ and that ‘she had everything under control’.

Relationships: Laurie Billings - sister

Core Member

Name: Alyssa Bell

Age: 27

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Occupation: Lawyer

Appearance: Pale with naturally dark wavy hair and ocean blue eyes, Alyssa is beautiful and she knows it. Her full lips and sharp nose further accentuate her beauty. At full 5ft. she is a short yet curvaceous woman. Her fashion style ranges from rocker chic to girly pastels and all that jazz. In a professional environment, she can be seen wearing business suits but in a party, there's no knowing whether she'll turn up in a retro style outfit or something out of Kim Kardashian's closet.

How long have they been a member?:
A year and a half

Character type:
Witch and Empath

Skills/Abilities:
If Alyssa knows one thing very well, it's how to manipulate people. Being an empath, she is able to feel people's emotions and it comes in handy in a courtroom. She also knows how to charm people with her looks and get things done. Witchcraft is just her back up when her words and looks are not enough. To say that she's an excellent witch would be an understatement. It was like a natural gift for her. The craft came easily to her and her skills improved with time. Now there's not one witch who can challenge Alyssa. At a young age, she has established her name in the witch community.

Virtues:
Confident, Does not give up easily, Loyal, Loves passionately

Vices:
Narcissistic, Doesn't mix well with new people, Short-tempered, Too selfish sometimes

Fears:
Abandonment, Public Humiliation, Losing her mother's case, Heights, Closed spaces, Deep blue water

History:
Alyssa had been practicing witchcraft since she was 14. She had been introduced to it by her aunt who was also a witch who in turn got introduced to it through a friend of hers. Her family, consisting of Orthodox Christians, was completely against anything which against their religion and no matter how much Alyssa tried to think of a way to convince them that witchcraft was not "against" their religion, it always came back to one thing, it was a secret and she couldn't tell them. So she practiced for years in hiding. Life was considerably good until her mom was wrongfully charged of her husband's murder. Alyssa's mom had married a man twice her age after Alyssa's biological died when she was five so that they wouldn't have to live on the streets. The man used to beat her mother and Alyssa could do nothing until she found witchcraft. The dark arts helped her kill her step father but her mother was held guilty, sentenced for life. Alyssa was sent to live with her aunt but she decided that she was going to become a lawyer and get her mother out since she couldn't confess herself. She hated that she had to keep her craft a secret because she would rather be behind the bars than outside while her mother suffered punishment for a crime she never did.
She needed help both from law and witchcraft so she came to Louthorne two years ago, seeking guidance. The Stitch 'N' Witchers club welcomed her with open arms and after a decade, she finally saw a ray of hope.

[_Nytmare_]

Core member
Name
Milo Odette Sawyer
Age
25
Gender
Female
Sexuality
Bisexual
Occupation
private investigator

Appearance
When you first look at her you would think she was a porcelain doll with her light eyes and delicate features, however she acts the exact opposite of how she looks. There is never a dull moment with this raven haired beauty. Although, her smiles never reach her crystal blue eyes that see more then they should.
she likes to keep things simple from her hair to her makeup. Even the way she dresses is plain. You'll never see her in bright colors or flashy jewlery. She likes to stay unnoticed and will tell you that.

How long have they been a member?
Six
Character Type
A born psychic who dabbles in witchcraft
Skills/Abilities
psychometry - She often wears gloves to keep from accidentally invading someone's privacy but if the past of an object is truly tragic, looking at it can send her into a vision.
Precognition - Often times when she enters a room and isn't distracted by something (talking to someone or playing on her phone) she will get scenes of things that have happened or things that will soon happen.
The witchcraft she does is usually for luck or protection.

Virtues
She has Good judgement in most descicions and is the person to go to when you need advice, although don't expect simple solutions, because she will give you the hard truths, though she'll do it as sweetly as possible.
She knows when things are done and when to walk away from a fight even if she's called a coward.
She isn't easily shaken from the things others have done, since she's seen most of it before, either for her job, or in her visioms. Things could be going to complete chaos around her and she won't even raise her voice.

Vices
The thing mostly seen when it comes to Milo is if she doesn't like you, you'll know, it's not that she's harsh she'll just seem cold.
First impressions are important to her and if you get off on the wrong foot it's nearly impossible to get back on track with her.
Her job keeps her sleep deprived and it's fairly obvious. On the upside though she can fall asleep anywhere.
Her memory isn't the best, she knows alot but she has to write it down to keep track of it all.
She may become distant and drop off the map for weeks on end to recharge but she always comes back better then before.

Fears
Finding out everyone secretly hates her. Being put back in a psych ward. People not believing her warnings and ending up getting hurt.

History
Like everything else about her, her past is fairly simple, although it is dark. She grew up in a small seaside town. Her first encounter with her powers came to her in the nineth grade on a field trip to a museum. Every object had a past and she saw all of them at once. It made her sick for a week. The doctors had no explanation for it. They finally came up with the diagnosis, schizophrenia.
She took the medicine willingly for awhile till it made her distant then her mother told her if she didn't she would go to a place for crazy people. How could she argue with that? She didn't want to leave her home.
One day, though she had a vision strong enough that it broke through the medicine's hold. It was a vision of fire. She was inconsolable. Her mother didn't believe her that she didn't stop taking her medicine so she was sent to the hospital's pysch ward. While she was there her house burned down. She knew it wasn't her fault but everyone in her family thought she had caused it and so no one wanted her.
She was sent to live in a foster home. At least no one there made her take her medicine. When she aged out she had no one so she moved as far away as possible. That's where she found people who cared about her. They were her support system while she went through college. She wanted to do good for the world, use the gifts bestowed upon her for others. So she became a private investigator.

[Fluxbauble]

Newcomer
Name: Declan Chase
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Hetero(?)
Occupation: Former High School Student/ Bookstore Ghost.

Appearance: Declan stands at a proud 5 feet 4 inches. Genetically he's of Pacific Islander/Asian descent. He sports short, wavy dark hair that is permanently in a state of bed head and dark brown eyes which are framed by his black half-frame glasses. Declan is of a rounder build with broad shoulders. He hides his frame underneath loose fitting clothes usually a t-shirt or long sleeve shirt with an open over shirt with some graphic design on it. He wears black slacks with black shoes to round out his look.

Character Type: Ghost
Skills/Abilities:
Possession - It has taken him a long time to get the application down, but he can possess people and objects. Though people are way harder and he generally only possesses them when they're asleep. Afterwords however he feels like he wants to go to sleep. Do ghosts sleep? Do ghost dream of spectral sheep?!
Tangibility - It's only slightly but it's enough for Declan to open and read books. Which is good enough for him. Now if only he could become tangible enough to work a computer he'd be set. He hasn't quite figured out how to make himself tangible enough to talk or be seen yet, but he's working on it!

Virtues: Even before his recent lifestyle change Declan has always had a willingness to help when he can. Even if it's just as something as simple as listening to your problems, he always is willing to be there. Due to his upbringing he's always been rather open-minded. He hasn't ever cared for what people identified as or why, he always hears people out even if their opinion clashed with his, and he was also open to new ideas that he never would've come up with. At the end of the day they're human beings and that shouldn't change his opinion of them as people. Declan has been told that he is easy to get along with. Which might have a correlation to his previous traits since he's willing to take in people as they are and doesn't really judge them for being a certain way. After all he doesn't understand their circumstances nor does he have any right to judge or complain. He's dead. Declan is also pretty humorous. Or at least that's what he perceives since his friends laugh at his jokes when they hear them. So he often tries to keep people smiling through his jokes, bad as they may be at times.

Vices: Declan has always been his own worst enemy. He suffers from low-esteem which he perpetuates with cynical self-deprecating humor. He tends to block himself from pursuing romantic interests after his numerous failed attempts in life. He's figured his chances at romance are like his current life status: Dead. Aside from is low-self esteem, Declan overthinks things frequently. Sometimes he'll overthink something for so long the moment will pass him and well, as his debate teacher taught him, Opportunity Costs. This over thinking also tends to make him think of the worst case scenarios that play out like slow motion movies in his head. Needless to say his mental gymnastics is a vicious cycle meant to keep him thinking he's less than what he actually is.

Fears: Declan fears, more than anything, being left alone or isolated. He struggles to cope with things by himself and the feeling of loneliness sinks in for him rather quickly. It's the reason he always tries to surround himself with people when he can. His other biggest fear, ironically, is passing on. He never actually feared death itself. It's inevitable. But he's terrified of what will happen to him once he passes on to the "here after". Will he be reincarnated? Will he sent to Hell? Heaven? Do those even exist? This uncertainty is what's mostly shackling him to the world right now.

History: Prior to his lifestyle change, Declan was the new kid in school. He had just transferred over from Spokane, WA when his mother decided to move here to Louthorne where she opened up her used bookstore, Moonlighters. It had been a little over a year since they had moved to Louthorne and Declan was rather used to the small, sleepy town. It reminded him of his old home, just smaller. He had a small group of friends that he hung out with after school. Eat pizza at the local pizza joint, laze about in the park, go fishing over at the lake, try his hand at romance and fail, work the store sometimes while his mom was out. Life was pretty solid for Declan and his mom.

Of course all good things have to come to an end eventually. For Declan it came in the form of... Well he honestly doesn't know how to describe it. It happened so fast. One moment he was returning from pizza with the gang and about to man the store front. Next thing he knows his house is blown to kingdom come and his body is buried underneath a collapsed bookshelf and a mountain of books. How do you explain to a teenager who's looking at his own body that all hell broke loose and he was one of the poor unfortunate souls to be stuck as a roaming spirit? Of course he panicked as he tried to make sense of the world and his new disposition. He immediately started looking for his mom hoping she was safe. But the punches kept rolling and it wasn't long till he found her. Lifeless on the ground just a few feet away from home. He looked for her spirit. Maybe she ended up like him. But after a few hours he resigned himself to thinking that she passed on.

In an odd sense it brought him peace to know his mom wouldn't have to see him in this state. What would she even say? "Ang matapang kong mandirigma." it was Tagalog for "My brave warrior". She would call him that whenever he was feeling down. He had to put on a brave face once more. At least till he could figure out this mess. He was lucky in finding a few of his mates who managed to survive, though communication was a tad bit of a struggle at first. Over the next few days he and his gang helped him clean up Moonlighters and began to deep dive into the occult. His home was a sort of clubhouse before the event so it felt rather natural for them to stick around like this. Currently he and his small group of friends spend most of their time studying what they can to figure out what's going on with them while they try and make the best out of bad situation.

Relationships: As luck would have it he's on the market. That is if you're into that whole ghost thing. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

Core Member or Newcomer? Core member
Name: Emory Bunker
Age: 23
Gender: Genderqueer (He/his or they/theirs)
Sexuality: Pansexual, aromantic
Occupation: Gas station manager

Appearance:
At well over six feet tall, Emory tends to stand out in a crowd. Their skin is a dark brown, as are their eyes, and they wear their hair in long dreadlocks (usually pulled back in a ponytail to keep it out of their face). They keep their face clean-shaven, and they’ve got a decent amount of muscle on their frame from all the heavy lifting. Even in the rare moments they’re not at work, they’re usually wearing their work uniform- polos and jeans- and their wire-rimmed glasses.

How long have they been a member?: 4 years
Character Type: Witch
Skills/Abilities:
Water scrying
Augury reading
Cord magic (usually by knitting/crocheting spells directly into their craft projects)
Tincture-making
Sigil Design

Virtues: level-headed, driven to help others, book-smart
Vices: puts others before themself, self-doubting, puts off bringing up anything remotely awkward until it’s way too late, reacts viscerally to sight of blood
Fears: failing his family, accidentally harming those close to him

History:
Emory doesn’t talk much about their past. Then again, it’s common enough knowledge that he doesn’t need to. Born and raised in Louthorne, Emory showed their potential in school from a pretty young age, and they kept themself high on the honor roll well into high school. A lot of people had high hopes for them to go to college, get out of this dump of a town, and make something significant of their life- especially Rudy Bunker, owner of the Louthorne Pump & Pantry and Emory’s father.
That path out of town took a sharp turn off a cliff when Emory was 17. In retrospect, people swore up and down that they knew Rudy had been working himself too hard, but the stroke still came out of nowhere. He survived, thankfully, but he lost all motor control on the left side of his body, leaving the family business adrift with no one at the helm. When the choice came down to it, Emory wasn’t going to let the store flounder and ended up diving in, taking over a lot of day-to-day operations. Unfortunately, that meant their grades took a nosedive, consigning them to a pile of college rejections and a rapidly closing door to a life elsewhere.
Emory had been searching for years to find a place to talk out their feelings without judgement, and they ended up finding Stitch N’ Witch at 19. Since then, they’ve become a bit more withdrawn about their personal life, keeping to pleasant small talk when at work and only opening up around other club members. Over time, they’ve come to peace with the fact that they’ll likely have to keep the gas station running in order to support his family. After all, if they keep shouldering this responsibility, that’ll mean in a couple of years, their little sister Aleah will be able to go to college, getting all the opportunities they couldn’t.

Relationships:
Aleah is their little sister, currently in high school. Otherwise, they're open, though they're not actively looking for a partner.

Newcomer

Name: Cody Brown

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Bisexual

Occupation: In between jobs. Holds a degree in journalism.

Appearance: Mischievous glint in caramel eyes, sharp eyebrows, nose and cheekbones make him attractive enough but his rosy lips curling up in a natural smoulder are a plus point. With a height of 6' 2" and a lean build, he feels satisfied with himself. His tousled chocolate brown hair are god's gift because he never has to make any efforts to make them look that way.

Character Type: Psychic, Medium

Skills/Abilities: He is still discovering his abilities but so far, he has found he can work with energy to heal people. Very undeveloped precognition. He gets overwhelmed in places with lots of energy. Ghosts scare him but he's stuck with being a medium and so they tend to follow him around
He is skilled in talking his way out of any situation. If motivated enough, he can find out anything for you. A hacker but ethical.

Virtues: Extremely friendly, Loves to help anyone in need, loyal, an extreme sweetheart

Vices: Can't hurt anybody even if they have hurt him, Tries to fix situations even when he's unwelcome, doesn't open up about his emotions

Fears: Betrayal, Being unloved, ducks, remaining jobless

History: Cody is half british and used to live San Francisco. He moved out of his home to go to college and then after college, he never went back there. His family had always favored their older son more and Cody had been neglected all his childhood. He wanted to see if they would miss him if he never went back but they didn't. Cody couldn't believe his own family would be so heartless. With this weight on his heart he went from city to city, working temporary jobs while his degree remained useless. He came to Louthorne by mistake. His phone's battery had died and he was drunk so he took a wrong turn and found himself in town on the night of the incident. The trauma triggered his psychic powers. It's not like he didn't have them at all before. They were just at a much lower scale and he usually passed everything off as intuition, gut feeling or hunch. Mediumship however made him a freak in his house, one of the reasons his older brother was favored more in the family. He couldn't see ghosts but he could feel their presence. It would just be a little feeling that he was not alone. He learned to ignore that but after the incident, well let's just say ignoring became a little hard since he could see them now. Completely overwhelmed with everything, he decided to spend some time in the town and get a grip on himself but he didn't know this was going to turn into a permanent arrangement.

Relationship: Open​

 

[Elf_Ruler]

Core Member
Name: Maika Hastings
Age: 20
Gender: female
Sexuality: demisexual
Occupation: Book store clerk

How long have they been a member: 1 year
Character Type: Witch
Skills/Abilities:
1. Divination- Maika uses crystals in most forms to help her predict possible outcomes of the future, mostly for herself but she can for others as well.
2. Herbalism for healing- Maika uses herbs and the plants of nature in order to help those who are ailing to heal them and treat any sickness or pain they may have
3. Healing through crystals- Besides herbs and plants, Maika also uses the powers of crystals in order to also help anyone that may be hurt or need healing of their energy.

Virtues:
1. Forgiving
2. Loyal
3. Adaptive
Vices:
1. Jealous
2. judgmental
3. Manipulative
Fears
1. Being alone
2. Not being good enough
3. The unknown
4. Spiders

History: Maika grew up with her mother and grandmother both whom were witches/wiccans. She learned most of her knowledge about herbs and the healing power that came from them from her two favorite people. Maika always knew she had an affinity for healing and caring for people her entire life and knew she had a gift for understanding how to fully help others. She didn't learn to use crystals until she had become a core member of the club. Her life was pretty safe growing up and the only hardship she truly faced was her grandmother passing. All of her healing did nothing to help her grandmother in the end.
However, in school Maika was usually excluded from certain activities because kids found her strange and found her family strange. It was something that had always bothered her and she grew to fear being alone, even if it was at school because everyone seemed to have a core group of friends but she was always excluded. Eventually once she graduated she got a job at the local bookstore helping out and that was where she felt most at home. The books made her feel like she had a purpose and she could find more books on herbs and healing and eventually crystals and the different powers she could harness using them. She learned how to use divination through the crystals both from the club and books. She knows she has much more to learn and gain from the club but she is still wary of most everyone there.

Relationships: N/A

 

[LittleCal]

Core Member or Newcomer? Newcomer
Name: Aleah Bunker
Age: 17
Gender: Female (she/her)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Occupation: High school student

Appearance:
Though she's not nearly as tall as her brother, Aleah still stands pretty tall for a high school junior at five feet nine inches. She's got a pretty stocky build that she tries to de-emphasize by wearing lots of layers. She's got dark brown skin and eyes, and she keeps her hair natural, usually wearing it up in a bun or two. Her outfits tend to look a little plain, with sweaters or cardigans, jeans, and a baggy pair of overalls that used to belong to Emory before he hit a growth spurt. However, she’ll add in off-the-wall accessories to make her outfits more her own (her favorite add-on is a pair of cat-shaped earrings that Emory crocheted, although she’ll never admit it to their face).

Character Type: Psychic
Skills/Abilities:

• Clairvoyance
• Astral projection
• Pre- and/or retrocognition (she's genuinely not sure yet)
• Psychography
• Dream interpretation

Virtues: knows at least a little about darn near everything, quick to warm to new people, able to adapt to new things quickly
Vices: doesn’t bother with tact, tends to barge into situations she has no business getting involved in, cuts as many corners as she can get away with
Fears: Grades slipping, not getting into college, something happening to Emory or her parents

History:
Aleah has lived in Louthorne for all 17 years of her life, and she abso-goddamn-lutely loathes it. It's bad enough to be in a place where damn near everybody is on a first-name basis with each other without your dad having a stroke and ending up in a wheelchair. It's bad enough being at the top of your class without having to carry your whole family's hopes of you getting a good scholarship and a high-powered career. It's bad enough having to field questions about your brother's gender and sexuality (while figuring out your own) without living in a town with more churches than schools. When it all comes together? It's hell, at least as far as Aleah is concerned.

Keeping her grades up and getting into college is Aleah's top priority, but she'll jump at any project or scheme that could get her out of town without sticking her parents with a tuition bill. She helps out at the Pump & Pantry whenever Emory lets her, which isn't very often since they want her to "enjoy being a kid". This is dumb as hell as far as she's concerned, because she's 17 which is basically an adult and god Emory, stop treating her like a little kid already, don't you have a sweater to knit for your weird hippy club or something? (She'd heard of the Stich N' Witch club through occasional mentions, but didn't really care much about Emory's crafting circle/LARP group. After all, it's not like psychics and witches were real, right? She's certainly not about to start seeing ghosts out of the blue, or lose control of her hand while writing and end up with a page full of omens instead of class notes. That stuff just doesn't happen.)

Relationships: Would protect Emory with her life. Otherwise open, within reason.

He tends to wear large, baggy clothing that hides the majority of his skinny figure. He wears a necklace with a key attached at all times. He usually has a blanket over his legs, and generally only has shorts on underneath, because putting on pants is a large effort when you're in a wheelchair, which he is.

History: In a small town nearby, Ollie was born, healthy and happy. But at age 11, things changed drastically after a relatively uneventful life when a reckless driver mangled his legs beyond repair. They were both amputated, leaving him wheelchair-bound. But more notably, a blow to the head gave him abilities he was not previously privy to. He was able to fleetingly see the distant past, and the near future. Over time, his resentment grew, and he developed his psychic powers through hard work and research, fueled by spite. He'd heard stories of a small town with a powerful magic presence, and intended to go there as soon as possible to learn the dark arts and, eventually, take out the man who crippled him. (This ambition absolutely toootally won't be wrecked by the power of friendship.) Now he's been here for less than a month.

Relationships: Pet lizard.
