Biography:

Aislynn was born to a young couple, Abel and Pamela Carrow. They had a comfortable home where her mother worked, keeping it shinning and strong and a small ranch where they raised all manner of creatures. Aislynn worked closely with her Mother on the farm, enjoying the creatures' company. Abel was a Cerberus Knight, and while he was often away on missions, when he did come home he devoted his time to his family. There was no doubt that he was away too much, but he was a hero to Aislynn, everything that she wanted to be. Aislynn adored her Father, he was brave and strong and she was proud of his work…..

….until he had died during a mission. She didn’t even know where or how, it was classified. She had no one to hate, no one to plot against with vengeance consuming her mind, so she transferred her anger to the Cerberus Knights, blaming them for her loss. Aislynn mother, Pamela, remarried not a year later, Aislynn feels that it was her way of dealing with things, but she couldn’t stand him. He squandered their money away, her Father’s money and would not lift a finger to help. Her Mother worked hard to support the family, and tried so hard to keep the peace but Aislynn couldn’t stand seeing her like that. Aislynn even took up odd jobs for people, pulling weeds, running errands, anything to help out.

Aislynn disliked her step-father yes, but she could no longer look at her Mother the same. Pamela was allowing herself to be taken advantage of and Aislynn couldn’t understand why. The farm was dying and Aislynn found no happiness in her home anymore, so she left. She felt that her Mother had made her choice and so it was her turn to choose.

At first she didn’t know where she was going or what she was going to do. She realized how much she had had now that she had lost it, but Aislynn still felt leaving was the right thing to do. She lived on the streets, still working for almost nothing, some food usually, when she could. It was hard, and she experienced both the good and the bad in people. Aislynn leaned that you could only rely on yourself.

Aislynn enjoyed her freedom though, until a beautiful women cloaked in glittering velvet approached her. She introduced herself as Lyra, her Mother’s sister. Pamela hadn’t ever spoken much about her but had told Aislynn once that she was a powerful witch and that they had a falling-out. She could almost see her Mother in her Aunt, but she would never say there was anything similar about them now.

Lyra promised Pamela that she would find her daughter, but Aislynn refused to go back. She didn’t think she could face her Mother or see what had become of her since her leaving. Lyra suggested they compromise, if Aislynn agreed to attend Makai Royal Academy, Lyra would tolerate her presence and allow her to live with her ((or do they stay in dorms???)) and Pamela would be satisfied that Aislynn was safe. Aislynn declined, to proud and stubborn to accept but Lyra left her with an address. Eventually Aislynn found her Aunt and accepted her terms. She decided that freedom wasn’t worth loosing everything over. Instead of facing her mistakes, she sought to replace her Mother with Lyra and start anew, but she is still haunted by the depilated ranch and the people and memories that reside there.

Magical Concentration:
Something with sound, I’m working on this….I like the ideas of using summons as a focus. Perhaps she calls forth summons with a song? That and maybe supportive magic to enhance her teammates and summons?

Personality:
Aislynn is mature for age, having to help her Mother run the house then fend for herself completely once she left. She is stubborn and proud but is generally tolerant of others. She has a hard time trusting or relying on people, but she accepts them for who they are. While she gets agitated quickly and is prone to explosions of anger, Aislynn also tends to forgive quickly, beliving in second chances. She values hard work and hates those that prey on the weak. She is quiet, but will speak up if she feels she needs to. She is perpetually grumpy, with a bad attitude. Aislynn is loyal though and willing to stick her neck out for others; she hates to see innocent people suffer.

Visual References:
I’m not really set on anything yet as far her looks go. I’m thinking short hair or maybe long but really messy hair, narrowed eyes, and rough-around-the-edges looking.
