this is the garden:colours come and go, frail azures fluttering from night's outer wing strong silent greens silently lingering, absolute lights like baths of golden snow. This is the garden:pursed lips do blow upon cool flutes within wide glooms,and sing (of harps celestial to the quivering string) invisible faces hauntingly and slow.
This is the garden. Time shall surely reap and on Death's blade lie many a flower curled, in other lands where other songs be sung; yet stand They here enraptured,as among the slow deep trees perpetual of sleep some silver-fingered fountain steals the world.

Name:Eirkrynhollan'icthcynori [sounds like the creakiest, wind rustlin'-through-trees-branchiest s**t you ever heard. Good luck saying it right. Hollandaise is the name given to her by the Warder elders for use at Amityville due to her nigh-unpronounceable true name] believes she is unworthy of her name, has not told anyone it Nicknames: Hollandaise Gender: physically genderfluid, almost exclusively chooses female Age: 50 years old (looks to be around 16)
Hollandaise tries her best to be constantly cool and composed - something most Warders can achieve with ease. In this, she's honestly not very successful. But she tries. Sometimes, Hollandaise can find it easy to speak evenly even in stressful situations, although she likes to (badly) disguise any complaints as suggestions, because "Warders do not complain, Eirkrynhollan'icthcynori". The one thing that is guaranteed to get under her skin is someone being too close to her physically. She will tolerate it (or rather, she will try) but eventually, Hollandaise will snap and yell or even shove creeple away. She's not proud of her sensitivity there, but she's trying to get over it. Once another student has made her angry, she does not forget. Hollandaise remembers everything. That's not to say that she does not forgive - she does, sometimes (not often) - but Hollandaise does not forget. She makes snap judgements on creeple's clothing and mannerisms and that first impression will stay with her even if someone has long proven it wrong.
She is obsessive and stubborn. If told not to do something she deems interesting, Hollandaise will constantly question it and then find a way to do it anyway. Time is not an issue for her; she can wait for months and is not concerned with instant gratification. Rather, Hollandaise appreciates the delay, that feeling she gets when finally, she discovers what's in the notebook that ghoul keeps hidden or when, after sneaking into someone's personal spaces for so long, they begin to accept her as some sort of weird constant - much like a piece of furniture. Her stubbornness extends not only to places and things, but to students and teachers. If she cannot see a reason for a classroom rule, she will pick it apart, and might consider disobeying it entirely. However, Hollandaise understands (mostly) the limitations of other people's patience. She has been on the receiving end of the Elders' ire several times, but finds such consequences are worth the self-satisfaction she feels in doing or not-doing things her preferred way. But, there is a subtle difference between pushing hard and pushing too far. It's something she's working on.
Despite her obsessive nature, she often finds herself distracted, caught up in thoughts and daydreams. This can make her seem a little spacey to some, since it's like she stops to think and simply... forgets to start again. Her daydreams often consist of fantastical what-ifs of the world around her or how much better that corner of the school yard would look with more flowers. Because of this, Hollandaise sometimes loses track of conversations or even whatever she was just doing. Once reminded, she easily flows back into her previous task, daydream forgotten. Errant daydreams or distractions are often the only things that can sway her from a course of stubbornness. Even then, they only serve to table her obsession for later. However much she may get lost in thought, she finds it easy enough to focus in short bursts (beyond her obsessions) when it is truly important, like when in danger.
Hollandaise does not particularly like the undead, as they are not alive... it's not alarming, so much as kind of sad. And gross. Although she dislikes them, she will not be overly antagonistic towards them unless they are somehow threatening. She much prefers living things - more so if they are plants, or green, or large, or beautiful. Or all of the above. She flocks to things that meet these criteria like a moth to a light - part admiration, part jealousy. Hollandaise also has a soft spot for any minipets, but her one truest love is plants. She can spend days whispering to them about all the things they have seen and exchanging stories. As a plant creature herself, she feels invigorated by their mere presence. And, in part because of her natural ability, she hates to see plants mistreated for any reason. She can pick up their unhappy whispers and it distresses her. Despite this, she has no qualms about a plant's purpose in food or the natural order of things: she simply hates unnecessary cruelty.
RECENT CHANGES: Hollandaise has recently developed an obssession with becoming 'useful' as the pinnacle of success. Also, she wonders about dying, in human terms - she would like to be a book if she died, to have someone's story writ across her skin is romantic... and useful. As for the undead, she's becoming more okay with them, but it's hard to shake almost half a century of taught hate.
* Hollandaise can speak common and the language of the Green Warders (which sounds suspiciously like Welsh). She does not use their language often, however.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? A Green Warder is prized for their ability to scare people away from their forests. Unfortunately, instead of popping out of shadows to scare, Hollandaise has a bad habit of becoming so lost in thought that she forgets to scare people. And, when she does remember, it's such a terribly weak attempt at scaring that she is sent to Amityville to shape up and become useful.

xxxxxCommon Desc: A Green Warder is a construct built of various plant materials, then imbued with sentience. The species itself is self-propagating in that Green Warders construct their own. Averaging about 7 feet tall, the Warders continue to grow throughout their life - much like trees do. As denizens of rich forests, the species tends to be quiet and stealthy, often utilizing their natural camouflage to frighten the unwary.
xxxxxNatural ability: xxxxxxxxxxx • Plant Affinity: Green Warders have the ability to converse with any plant, regardless of species, if they choose to do so. Depending on the Warder's concentration, these conversations may be complete words and sentences or simply images and generalized feelings.(Concentration abilities vary according to maturity of Warder. For example, a younger Warder will not be able to master the focus needed for words and sentences. Plant Affinity is not a passive ability and the Warder must choose to concentrate.) Y1 - upon concentrating, a Warder can sense and speak with medium to large sized plants (the smallest being a singular flower such as a daisy) using emotions and brief, simplistic pictures. Y2 - concentration comes more easily, and the Warder can communicate using simple words, although smaller plants (like grass and moss), remain unreachable. Y3 - the Warder may converse with all plants more easily, in full sentences, although some plants may not understand complex words & thoughts.
