  • Height: 5'7"
    Weight: 60kg
    Body type: Ectomorph—average height and fairly skinny but with some lean strength from her sports.
    Hair colour: Brown.
    Hair style: Her hair reaches just above mid-chest, and is usually loose, with some waves she puts in. When she needs it out of the way she will pull it back into a braid or some kind of braided updo.
    Eye colour: Deep green.
    Distinguishing features: A birthmark said to be a witch's mark on the side of her neck below her right ear.
    Typical clothing: Ferne has a very historic style, wearing things like witchy, celtic dresses, cord and wrap belts, shawls and silver or steel celtic/norse-style jewellery.
    Nicknames: Fernie
    Age: 23
    Date of birth: 28/11
    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Witch
  • Personality: Ferne is a friendly young woman, warm and welcoming, an extrovert. She tends to put others before herself, especially as she is a young witch and helps protect the supernatural community. She's kind and trusting and although that makes her naive at times, it means she can make friends easily and she's close with those in her community.

    She's a creative person and can often be found daydreaming, when she's not spending time with her close friends or focused on witchcraft. She knows most, if not all of the supernatural community, and many of the rest of the town still, as she has little issue with gaining friends. Since she's a bit of a people pleaser though, sometimes people don't get to know her. She tends to go along with what others suggest and what others like if she doesn't know them very well and keeps her inner self less on show.
    Likes: Folk music, especially playing the harp and violin, gardening, outdoorsy activities like hiking, sewing, and in terms of magic, herbalism, divination and rituals.
    Dislikes: Most ball sports, being too hot, bright colours, jazz music, "normal" people, and formal events or celebrations. With magic, she doesn't so much like spirit work.
    Goals: To find her place in the world when she prefers Falcombe and doesn't want to move away.
    Fears: Her biggest fear is failure. She has a lot of responsibility to grow into, and doesn't want to disappoint.

    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Witch


  • Magical abilities: Traditional magic (spellweaving, divination, spiritwork, herbalism), elemental magics, healing.
    Skills: Herbalism, nature manipulation, healing, divination, gardening, playing violin, cello and harp, sewing, cooking.
    Weaknesses: Fire manipulation, spirit work and rituals, anything that requires strength, maths and leadership scenarios.

    Items: Her spellbook; a leatherbound book with a lock that appears to have no mechanism of opening, and her herbalist's belt; a thick leather belt with various pouches, pockets, and storage for small containers.
    Nicknames: Fernie
    Age: 23
    Date of birth: 28/11
    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Witch

  • Occupation: Staff at Silverwood Arcana.
    Social class: Middle.
    Sexual orientation: Bisexual.
    Romantic status: Single.
    Hobbies: Playing cello, violin and harp, sewing, foraging and gardening.
    Family: Her mother, Esadora, her father Eoin, her younger brother Dillon, and her younger sister Holly.
    Familiar: A spirit with the chosen name of Faun, whose usual forms are a black ball python, a sable and a raven.
    History: Ferne was born into a very free family, where she was encouraged to do what she wanted in her life from a young age, within reason of course. She spent most of her time playing outside as a young child and channelled this into her love of herbalism and gardening as she grew, and when she was in primary school, she took up learning the cello. This was shortly followed by the violin, and then the harp in secondary school. As she learnt to use her magical gifts, she picked up control over the element of earth.

    With 3 siblings, she often had to compete for approval and attention. She also had the weight on her shoulders of being the oldest, and the daughter of the high priestess of the witches. She grew into wanting to keep people happy, at the very least.

    At the age of 17, she started working at Silverwood Arcana, her mother's shop, and also became part of the community's folk group, playing often at supernatural gatherings and parties. At 18, her mother gave her some more responsibilities within their coven, including helping to organise said gatherings and learning to protect the community with her spellwork. Now, she has recently taken over the shop almost entirely as her mother focuses on the coven, and is working to pay off the flat above the shop.

  • Height: 6'2"
    Weight: 67kg in human form, 101kg in her dragonblood form.
    Body type: Mesomorph—strong with lithe muscle.
    Hair colour: Dark brown, almost black.
    Hair style: Usually worn in a ponytail, her hair comes just past her shoulders and has a characteristic wave to it.
    Eye colour: Deep blue.
    Supernatural form features: Sapphire blue leathery wings, with a wingspan of around 3 metres. Her scaled tail is the same blue, with sharp, shark-fin shaped golden spikes down the spine of it and a golden, barbed spade at the tip. Her golden horns stretch up and back from just above her forehead, then curve upwards again to a point. Her hands and feet are golden-clawed and blue-scaled, her teeth sharpened, tongue forked and pupils slitted.
    Distinguishing features: Ketania is particularly tall, being a dragonblood, but the thing most people notice about her actual appearance is her sharp facial structure—her cheekbones and strong brows.
    Typical clothing: She is a fan of semi-streetwear and "edgier" styles. Things like printed sweatpants, ripped black jeans, printed t-shirts, ankle boots and dark colours are what she often wears. She has a signature red leather biker jacket.
    Nicknames: Spitfire
    Age: 23
    Date of birth: 24/03
    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Dragonblood
  • Personality: Ketania can be summed up fairly well in one word: feisty. She is very straightforward and direct and sees things in more of a black and white manner. While she can be a bit blunt, she is tempered around those she is close with, and avoids being so closed off with them too.

    To her, things like honesty and loyalty are important. Honesty might sometimes result in her being too blunt, as she prefers not to lead people on with things like white lies. However, she doesn't intend to upset people. Anyone she is close with, she is ride or die with. Anyone that messes with them faces her temper. Because of her bluntness she also is prone to seeing things in quite a black and white fashion. Either someone is nice, or they're not; either they're doing something good, or they're doing something evil. This doesn't always help when trying to temper her fire, if she notes someone doing something she doesn't agree with, but she is somewhat aware that she can be too feisty, and does listen when people really tell her to calm it.
    Likes: Hearty food, good drink, rock music, theatre, singing and kickboxing.
    Dislikes: Confined spaces, solitude, bright colours or lights, swimming, and the cold.
    Goals: To protect those she cares about.
    Fears: Not being enough. Whether that's not being strong enough, or not being there if anything bad happens. She also isn't a fan of dogs.

    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Dragonblood

  • Magical abilities: Draconic transformation, pyromancy, enhanced strength, enhanced sight, hearing, and smell.
    Skills: Playing the guitar, drums and piano, kickboxing, acting, singing, motorcycling and pyromancy.
    Weaknesses: Swimming, public speaking, team sports, STEM subjects and anything social that requires finesse.

    Items: Her necklace; a dragon's claw holding a carnelian, which Ferne enchanted for her at her request. It burns hot if Ferne wills it to, a signal.
    Nicknames: Spitfire
    Age: 23
    Date of birth: 24/03
    Gender: Female
    Pronouns: She/her
    Race: Dragonblood

  • Social class: Working.
    Sexual orientation: Bisexual.
    Romantic status: Single.
    Hobbies: Kickboxing, writing, acting, playing music and singing.
    Family: Olana and David, her parents. Aside from them, she has a twin brother, Kerran.
    History: Ketania wasn't always quite so feisty. She always had her twin brother there for her if nobody else. He was her main role model in life. Their parents generally let both of them have freedom, within reason, and were never too strict especially if they were together to keep an eye on eachother.

    Their close relationship seemed to be a source of ridicule from some, and she began to toughen up when they were bullied in school. She wanted to protect her brother. Her father fell ill when she was 15, and while her brother took more interest in the arts, she took up kickboxing to make sure nobody messed with him. She didn't cope very well with the loss of their father. After a particularly mean boy from one of Kerran's classes purposely started a fight with him, Ketania saw her brother's bloody nose and tracked the bully down during lunch. She broke his nose right back with a single punch before she was dragged off him, barely using the true strength she possessed. The boy didn't shut up about her "wild eyes" and her "sharp teeth" for days. Her mother wasn't entirely pleased with what she'd done, but after seeing what had happened to Kerran, her actions were partially justified.

    At 16, she got a job at the Nova restaurant as a part-time gig, then at the age of 18, after finishing high school, she got herself a job at the kickboxing academy she herself had learnt at. This became her main job, but she still works shifts at Nova for some extra money, as well as the free food.
