Theodore Hayes

Nicknames: Theo
Age: 27
Place of birth: England
Gender: Male
Skillset: Divination

Personality:
Theodore is a grounding presence among his fellow coven mates. He seeks a semblance of normalcy in his day-to-day life, and generally prefers to dedicate his time to more mundane pursuits rather than the esoteric. He works as a private eye during the day, both for individual clients and the city at times.


Background:
Ever since he was young, Theodore could see glimpses of the future. Each tragedy to come, his own and those of the people around him, neatly laid out before him like a spread of cards. He still remembers when he first saw how and when his parents would die. And just how it felt to stand there helpless and watch it all play out, exactly as he'd predicted, with the knowledge that there was nothing he could do to save them.

It was that feeling which first sparked his obsession with the occult. He knew better than anyone that nothing could change fate. Nothing, except magic of the worst kind.

There used to be a time when Theodore would've resisted such a notion. A time when he believed that the burden of one's fate was theirs, and theirs alone to bear. But that was long before he became aware of the steep price of his gift, the one he and his loved ones have been paying for most of his life. Such was the inevitable lot of all diviners. Misfortune stalked in the shadow of each and every omen, and it was only a matter of time until before it would find him again.

In his coven Theodore had found a family, people he would not, could not lose. People who showed him it was possible to carve a path for oneself where one does not exist. He would protect them, even if it cost him his soul.

Character sheet:

OOC / Plotting information:

I would absolutely love to have pre-established connections with my char, whether they're platonic, romantic or adversary! I recently started enjoying writing married characters, so I'm down for that if anyone else is also, but as I said, I'm very down for platonic, sibling like or more negative relations too!

I'd like my character to be the medic / scientist of the group, if that's fine with the rest!

Character Information:

Name: Alessandra Rosetta Verratti

Nicknames: Alessa, Less

Age: 61, appears to be in her 20s

Place of birth: Italy

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance:


Personality:

Alessandra’s absolutely ruthless to anyone going against her or hers, but extremely loyal and caring to those she loves. She doesn’t do anything half-way, and she’s a very ride or die type of person. Even before joining her current coven, she had suffered a lot at the hands of witch hunters, and that stubbornly unadressed trauma manifests in the form of a superiority complex over humans she plays into for show, and a lot of buried, hidden pain.

Witches operate on a different set of ethics and morality, but even by witch standards, Alessandra can be very cruel and ruthless and, most importantly, very driven. If she’s after somebody, or if someone crosses her, she’ll lock onto that person and will go to the ends of the earth to make them suffer. Alessandra tends to hyper-focus on things, especially if those things encite extreme emotion within her, and she can become blind to the consequences it brings to everything and everyone around her. She’s conscious of this, and is always grateful of whoever pulls her back.

But the thing is, her reputation and temperament are often actually useful. Her coven isn’t very well liked, for a variety of reasons, but her reputation can be used to scare people away. And if a supernatural hunter’s after them, it makes her a singular target and from there it’s easier to pull away the hunter’s focus away from the coven at large, and only to her. And so she’s stuck in a bit of a doomed loop of wanting to change and be better, and constantly having to forgo her betterment for the good of her coven.

Because really, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do for her coven. She flirts with self-sacrifice like a woman with nothing to loose. She constantly worries about the coven’s future, and is willing to do the dirty work so they wouldn’t have to. Alessandra can be sarcastic, and playfully mean, and just a bit too honest at times, but between all that, she has no problem with showing her more vulnerable side to the people she loves.

Alessa’s very smart, and has a passion for the sciences. She works as a surgeon at a local hospital, and is a professor of medicine at the nearest university. She didn’t need magic to achieve all that - just decades of experience and a high interest in the field (she did use magic so people wouldn’t question her appeared age, though). She’s just a bit of a mad scientist, and has claimed a part of her coven’s basement for a personal lab. She is, at times, a little bit unhinged.

Skillset: Biology-related medicine

Biography:

Alessa didn't really have an easy childhood. She lost parts of her family to hunters. The ones that remained, split apart and for a long time, Alessa was alone. She travelled, she studied, she did her very best to survive. She found her calling in medicine and everything related to it - not because of any altruistic goal, but because she found that field fascinating. She found a family with her new coven, and would do anything for them.

This is Powder...

---

---

~Looks (FC: Ashley Michelle)​

---

---

Style:
Powder is quiite selective about what she wears but errs on the side of skimpy, sexy and 'suck it I'll wear what I want.' If anything she loves 2nd hand clothes and the challenge to dress as provocatively and revealing as she can and get away with it. She is big, muscular and fit so to be honest, the girl would rather just run around naked since she feels most comfortable in her birthday suit. But she has learned the pains of not normalizing one's self and not dressing accordingly and so she will relent and dress as a normie, as much as possible, if only as to not draw undue attention to herself nor her Coven. Yeah, good luck with that lol.

She loves to keep her hair long, flowing and natural, yet she will tie it up or more often braid it up tightly so she may fight without fear of it getting in the way. Yes, she would love to not bother shaving anything off her bod, but normalcy states that she follow suit and be a sleek and smooth non-furry maiden. She will be found wearing dark eye makeup and lip gloss, but will only doll up for special occasions and makes sure she stands out; there's no sense wearing it otherwise.

Scars/Mods/Piercings:
Several self-inflicted scars from ritual and self-harm / Tattoos (cover up the self-harm esp. on her left side) / ears, nose, lip, hood and tongue piercings but has to remove all piercings to use witchcraft since her belief is that it blocks the flow of energies.

Trivia:

• Accepted name is 'Powder' since her birthname is fittingly 'Gunpowder' in Spanish. Friends and family call her 'Poli (Mom calls her Polita)' and introduces herself to strangers with this name. Will offer to be called Powder when she feels comfy with you. Siblings and mom call her 'PoPo'. Only her father calls her Pólvora
• Closest friends call her 'Hexi', a hybrid between Hex and Sexy. Only they know the full extent of how much she practices witchcraft and believes in it. And they know why she dresses and acts the way she does.
• Works out and trains a lot, not only because she enjoys it, but because of its therapeutic benefits. When her emotions run high, violence or physicality is her immediate response. Combat training and hitting the gym has become a staple as therapeutic physical exertion and to 'hold the Earth again' so she may weave her rituals and spells with a clear mind.
• She is a gifted visual artist and currently works in a tattoo studio, but actually is a fantastic dancer. Body motions are her way of 'interacting with spirits' and has organically learned how to dance fom a young age.
• Talks out loud near bodies of water. She is speaking to the 'Slider' spirit. A great spirit that was born where rivers meet the lakes. It is her way of' appeasing it.' And sometimes she will just break out into random dance near water too.
• Always seems to be in a good mood during random times. Those that can sense it, will know that her good moods coincides during those times when her spirit guide, 'Crescent' visits her.
• She was going through her own 'expanding of consciousness' with all types of drugs and alcoholic mixes. Has backed off since she lost her former Coven, but will use everyso often till she is wasted.
• Hates smiling because of the gap beteen her teeth but refuses to have them adjusted due to not trusting the ideals of dentists. So she covers her mouth a lot especially when she laughs.
• Behind that tough, rebellious, middle finger attitude is a sweetheart. Rare that she will ever expose that side of her, but you know you are on your way when she begins to whistle through the gap in her teeth. She also has a knack for saying something sweet or caring at times. She'll be even known to hug her siblings or close friends and whisper how much she is thankful for them too. Also watch her attittude slip away and change when she encounters cute, fuzzy things.

~Bio: (Skillset: Warrior)​

---

---

• Born in Victoria, BC Canada. Eldest of 3 children: Powder - 23, Rainy - 17, Kia - 14. Parents are: Esperanza 40, Half Caucasian, Half-Latina mother and Micah 53, Half Caucasian, Half-African father.
• They lived in the trashy part of town near the woods and the lake. Powder's mother was supposed to be coven 'Lady,' the leader of the Coven of 13, but buckled under the sheer amount of spiritual energy needed and unending pressure to lead them against any enemies. Needless to say she broke and got lost along the way.
• Powder and her siblings had a horrible upbringing. Poli and her sisters suffered physical/emotional abuse by their addict father, Micah. Their mother, Esperanza, was detatched, broken and suffered from substance abuse. Both just could not withstand being constantly connected to spirits so to suppress it all they turned to heavy, heavy narcotics and alcohol use.
• Auntie Jackie, 34, half-sister of Micah, helped raise them but more importantly, mentored Powder to be a witch groomed as the 'Conduit' of the Coven of Thirteen. Jackie told her that the bad in her life was part of her training and brewing then consuming potions (alcohol and mind-altering chems) would help to ease her pain. She was to take the vacant spot her mother left behind and needed to toughen up by any means necessary.
• As a girl, she was introduced to the other secret society; the Grendel wolf pack. These were the werewolves that their Coven worked with to maintain secrecy and protect themselves against the hated Hunters. Faraday, a warrior for the pack was her mentor in the ways of combat.
• After getting her first period, she was then groomed to become coven Conduit due to her connection to The 'Slider,' a lake spirit that needed to be appeased so as to maintain loyalty and empower their Coven. Mostly a loner growing up, she only had the coven, her witch mentor aunt, her wolf warrior mentor and her sisters to turn to when things got really, really bad and really, really dark for her. And Conduit training got really, really bad and really, really dark.
• As a teen, she turned to drawing and painting to cope and blossomed as a gifted artist. Powder mostly painted away from the house and in the woods near the lake while high/drunk. Her artwork subconciously channelled energies from the Slider spirit and the coven elders knew that she would be accepted as the one to act as Conduit. And of course, upon her first contact with the spirit it was an excruciating and painful affair much, too much like 'sessions' with her abusive birth father.
• When Poli was 16, her younger sister, Rai'Shauni ran away. And later that year her baby sister, Ki'Ashya was taken in by child services. This was the girl's breaking point and solidified her final decision to take powers from the lake spirit. But in exchange it demanded a blood sacrifice. Was it perhaps then coincidence that her father, Micah, was listed as a missing person just before winter holiday season that same year?
• Regardless it was during this winter where her persona changed from that of survivor to fighter. She to combat martial arts and was a fierce competitor in under 18 tourneys. This of course, went against coven rules, but she had the mindset now to become leader, 'The Lady of the Coven,' and she would be the one to set the tone for this generation. It was her way or GTFO. But soon enough, she learned that aggression and injury kept her from properly doing her art and dance rituals and in turn, kept her from properly doing her craft. So ended her fledgling MMA career.
• Then in summer she was greeted by her spirit guide, 'Crescent.' He took form of a wispy, shadowy black cat. He taught her how to imbue and empower items/people by Marking them with symbols and sigils. Thus she worked under, Miggy, her gf, KiKi's brother as a tattoo artist apprentice.
• The year after she graduated from highschool, they were killed. The entire Coven, her auntie Jackie and the Grendel pack. Hunters. The Hunters found them and slaughtered them all. But amongst the bodies her mom and Faraday were nowhere to be found. She needed to find them. She needed to find answers.
• It had been 3 years of running, searching and running again; stints as a nomadic tattoo artist helped keep her fed. She never found her sisters, sadly as they seemed to have gone into hiding. But finally, she found another Coven that would accept her.
• She is currently still with them and she is loyal but still yearns to find her remaining family and uncover the mysteries of her past. Hope and Love. It's all she has left of them.

~Relations:​

---

---

• Alessa - Powder is neutral, a good soldier really, when interacting with the boss. From her upbringing in her former Coven, the elders held council but the Conduit, 'The Lady of the Coven' held the iron fist, no messing around. If Alessa commands Powder to break it, Pow will break it no questions asked. It is ingrained in her to fight, kill and die for 'The Lady.'
• Irene - the joking ways of Irene will definitely aggravate Pow and yeah, these two would defo butt heads due to their aggressiveness and temper. But Powder is a loner and would keep out of Irene's hair, only coming together when the Coven deemed it necessary. Pisses her off but still loyal to Irene. Nicest to Irene when under the influence.
• Theo - Powder is broken goods from a broken home. Theo would be the calming force in her life and if anything, he would most likely be the one to catch gimpses of the more tender and sweet side of her. I think he would be the one she would turn to if she needed advice or words of encouragement to feel better. Maybe even just a hug once in a blue moon.

[Twomanybagels]

Name:
Lattitude Drake

Nicknames:
Lack (Family Members), Lat, Atti

Age:
134 (26)

Place of birth:
Green Swamp, Florida

Gender:
Female

Sexuality:
Pansexual

Appearance:

Born with tough skin, Lattitude has a desaturated darkskinned complexion. She's a little chubby but muscular, gaining herself a bit of a gut alongside some pretty developed arms. Her pupils are yellow green. Naturally a brunette, she's dyed her hair a darker purple. Lat tends to wears shawls of different colors and a thick topaz necklace. She has no fashion sense, so she prefers wearing clothes that are more practical than fashionable, like a grandma.

Personality:
By nature, Lattitude is very curious with her surroundings. Even before the statue incident, she was always antsy for adventure and danger. On account of her upbringing, Lat would eagerly eat almost anything, even frogs and live bugs. Curriousity may have killed the cat, but its never fully took her head quite yet. She tends to be very agreeable with others, putting on a warm but brash demeanor in how she engages people.

But at the same time, she is prone to telling lies and manipulation, often exaggerating when speaking with people to tell them what they want to hear out of a sense of self preservation. She often puts on a mask of sorts regarding her true feelings, which aren't easy to decipher. Inwardly, she is very materialistic, lover of shiny items or thingamabobs of utility, thus making her posseive of what she does have. Has a hard time sharing, much less gifting. Lattiude is also a tad bit naive, and while she does ultimately dislike humans, she is slightly afraid of their mob like mentailty, opting to stay away and refraining from interactions as much as possible.

Skillset:
Hexes and bad luck! She possesses the ability to mess with other's fortunes. Whether that be directly with curses, or indirectly by increasing their chances of misfortune. Is also well knoweldable with spells that dable in jinxes, often able to recite them by heart.

Biography:​

Lattiude Drake was born to a family of legendary shapeshifting witches, who usually took the forms of giant snakes in Green Swamp Florida, known as Star Serpents. However, she herself got the short end of the stick, unable to posses the same powers of shapeshifting or affinity with blessings and wishmagic, even if she tried. So at 18, she left her home to figure out the world for herself all on her own.

She became a hoarder of many magical items, hunting down trinkets only mentioned in fairy tales and keeping them amongst her hoard somewhere in Northern Florida. Sometimes, she'd steal from others too, doing whatever she could to increase her arsenal, only allowing others to share the wealth if they paid the right price. Unfortunately, she stole a pretty important brooch from a fellow witch, who ratted her out to hunters. This lead to her ultimate demise, where she found herself frozen still as a statue, turning entirely into marble at the age of 26.

In a last ditch effort, Lat uttered a final curse: That those who stole from her hoard would face a wrath like no other once she was freed. While her statue, named "The Explorer" was initially a private artpiece of a hunter or two's abode, it eventually became apart of public domain, where she became the statue of a certain small garden in a public park. She is currently in a sort of dreamlike state where she is aware of her surroundings, but not fully concious enough to understand or think, cursed to watch from afar. But once freed, Lattiutde is certain she'd pledge an undying loyalty to her saviors, man or beast.
