## Information

With her protective motherly personality she gets along pretty well with other islanders. When she first arrived on the island she was dazed and confused, wondering how she ended up in this travesty of an island coated in thick corruption. Noteable features are her goggles and the bright red wings on her back. Nothing about her past is known thus far and everything she DOES remember is kept under wraps, no one is able to know what she remembers in fear of loss and Black Bear knowing. Edith has few enemies and whoever she does consider as enemies she doesn't show it unless needed. Her status with Blackbear is Neutral-Enemy. Her and Blackbear get along slightly but Blackbear has harmed the eggs and have even killed them before many times.

###### Appearance

Edith's normal attire consists of a wavy collar button-up blouse with a tight corset and a wavy skirt. with fishnets and high boots. Other noticable features is the flowers she keeps around her head and around her corset, they are sunflowers. Sunflowers are important to Edith since they represent joy, loyalty, unwavering faith and adoration which is what Edith bases her personality and morals off. On the right side of her goggles tied around the strap is a lapis gem which dangles. The lapis gem was given to her by an old friend and she cherishes it dearly. On the other side she has a pink tulip around her ear. The Pink Tulip was the first gift she was given from Mello and she always keeps it on her. Along with those items she keeps a carved bone dagger as a necklace. The dagger has an hole through the handle where the string loops around and is tied to her neck.

### Her children

Edith has two children, Mello and Apollo. Mello and Edith bonded over building and leaarned more about each other, eventually Mello has asked Edith if she would adopt them to which she instantly said yes. Apollo had came a bit later on, as Edith would learn Apollo and Mello consider each other as siblings and she treated them as such. Apollo and Edith overtime grew as closer friends and since Mello and Apollo already considered eachother as siblings, she made the decision to adopt Apollo so that they both were official siblings.

###### Prized Possessions

Edith has a good amount of prized possessions she will keep in either an ender chest or in her inventory. These items incude:

* A Bone Dagger
* Adamantite Sword labeled "A Cardinal's Weep"

* A Blue Cornflower labeled "Forget me Not!" from Apollo
* An assortment of bones, all of different types and shapes
* Her Books and journals

Edith keeps multiple books in her inventory, those books she uses to write information and log the unknown. Any information she has gotten overtime has stayed in this books. When they aren't in her backpack or pocket they are in an enderchest. She will never take the risk of her books getting misplaced or stolen.

### Psychology

Symbiotic Island has taught her many things such as emotions; Before coming to Symbiotic Island (She doesn't remember how she got there) She felt nothing, She was mostly a husk with no feelings or emotions, just doing what is told of her and that's it. The first few days before meeting anyone she was wandering around, she didn't know how she ended up on that island nor did she understand why she felt more empty than she normally does. After meeting some of the islanders and watching an egg die she started to feel things. She felt fear, sorrow, anxiety, anger, adoration. It was overwhelming to her but once she got more used to everything she felt she accepted it and adapted to her new feelings. Sometimes she has bouts of high emotions but she now has people around her to help.

### ***The Lab***

The lab is very important to Edith as she built it herself. The lab is used to study the corruption and the effects it has on not only an ecosystem but to life as well. Not much is known about her studies just yet other than what she has told to her close allies. The lab is made with quartz walls and blackstone floors with shroomlights illuminating the area. in set spots. Two chambers are known to be inside the lab, a sculk chamber and a manifestation chamber with a lecturn and book set at each station for logging information. At the start of the tests she didn't feel any side effects but slowly and steadily she was starting to feel what she used to. The affects of touching and handling the manifestation without proper gear and allowing it to seep into her skin made the manifestation start to shape her mind and allowed for stage one to begin.

### **Lore ~ The Stages**

"The Stages" otherwise known as reversion. The stages of Manifestation start with little red vines seeping beneath the skin, almost like parasites and small whisper like voices. As the stages go on, from the first to the third you start to see her mental state deteriorate and the vines becoming worse as they start to part from her body and break through the skin, wrapping around her arms and wherever else they can like a cocoon. It is unknown what happens within the final stage of the Manifestation but all that is known so far is that another person makes themselves known. Their name is **"Eleanor"** the one who causes sufferance.

#### **Eleanor - The Sufferer**

Eleanor was the first, she was created as pre-Edith and appeared before Symbiotic Island. She was known as a puppet to "Him" or "The Seer" and was almost robotic in nature. Eleanor was an order follower and obeyed what was asked of her. Eleanor is known to have killed three eggs and about 24 other people. Eleanor was sacrificial but at the same time was a sacrifice. She has learned to reform her body parts using "Red Vine" or "The Manifestation" and uses her parts to gain more will throughout time. Eleanor was the one who traveled to Symbiotic Island and gave up her memories to ▇▇▇▇▇▇. Nothing else is known about her as of yet. **More information will be known as we learn, keep paying attention <o>**
