Welcome to Gaia! ::

An herbalist who derives much of her spirituality from working through her craft, Eve tends to be down-to-earth in both the classical sense and a more literal sense. She can be a calming, placid presence to those who know her well enough or have a good first impression of her, and doesn't prefer talking much because she thinks sharing spaces, meals, activities and so on are often a better way to get to know someone than conversation alone (also, she's simply more of a listener than a speaker most of the time). These same tendencies, however, can make her a bit offputting or cold-seeming to those who don't hit it off with her right away.



Eve is the owner and sole employee of Equinox Teas & Remedies, not that you've likely heard of it. Running a proper brick-and-mortar business can be tricky in the era of being able to order anything on Amazon and have it delivered to your door. She’s been at it for half a year or so, and during that time has endured all the growing pains of starting up with barely any feedback whatsoever encouraging her to continue. While she went into it knowing that it would take a good year or three to start bringing in a profit, no amount of preparation could shield her from the discouraging reality of her current situation. The shop is struggling, she doesn't know what more she can do to make it better, and sometimes she sort of just wants to give it up.




Eve is a wheelchair user and has a service dog named Clover. Also, she and Leila are married and have been for many years. UPDATE: Julian Fitzpatrick is her nephew, and Ezra Fitzpatrick -- formerly known only as the "burning man" -- is her son.

She has a teenaged son, Dylan, who lives with her ex-wife, Jenny, in Boston. The family parted on very good terms and still visit each other often. UPDATE: In the updated timeline, Eve is uncertain whether she married Jenny or had a son with her.

Eve has were abilities with a base in a gray fox.
As a Riser, she developed an affinity for fox-like animals.
In a quest she learned to utilize the fox's senses without needing to transform.



Perhaps the Other forces are aware of Eve’s witchcraft after all, for she has been gifted with an affinity for corvids. There always seems to be one to three crows or ravens within a quarter mile radius of wherever she currently is, and they may give her the same communications and protections as they would a flockmate, as well as occasional tiny trinkets.



Eve can change a mundane characteristic of an inanimate object by describing it as such in conversation with another person while they have their eyes off the object. By 'mundane', that means the new characteristic is always feasible, albeit improbable or unexpected: she can successfully suggest a vanilla cupcake is actually a chocolate cupcake, for example, but she probably can't use this power to turn a cupcake into a full-sized cake.



Walk up the side of a building! C'mon, you can do it! Whether you actually want to is up to you. (Applies to wheelchair)



Eve’s body never suffers burns, even if she is actively on fire.



Eve can summon, and move at will, handfuls of magical flame that come in a variety of pretty colors and generally stay put where placed. These possess the light and heat of natural fire, and touching one causes the damage one would expect from a flame without actually catching -- because they are fueled by magic, they can't spread. If they aren't unsummoned directly, they slowly dim down and die over the course of several hours.



You are now capable of staying up for 24 hours straight without any appreciable loss of quickness, skill, or... anything. You're just up.
