## Appearance

She had a pretty face, neatly tied back lustrous blond hair, alluring lips, gleaming mystical saphire eyes, and a small pair of pretty looking feet.

## Personality

She could best be described as someone possessing a high IQ (Inteligence Quota) but a low EQ (Emotional Quota), or as a Tsundere (acting mean to someone she actualy secretly really likes out of embarisment and pride). She also has a hard time understanding, accepting, and vocalizing her feelings. For instance, she didn't realize she was in love with Shin Siwoo until he almost died.

She also has a highly prideful side to herself. Hardly ever believing herself to be in the wrong and also highly insistent on solving all of her problems on her own unless help is genuinely necessary.

## Abilities

* Partical Magic: she can attach her senses to particals and move them to other locations to observe without being there physically herself. It is considered a mix of water and wind elemental magic.
	+ Pollen Magic: Her preferred method of fighting is to secretly cast a rain spell to spread around her inert pollen without being detected and then send a magic signal to activate them, automatically destroying any magic and absorbing any mana in the area, including inside the body of other witches.
* Perfume Creation: her perfumes are like potions. One of her most popular perfumes induces drowsiness, which the witches love because it's one of the rare few things that help them sleep. Each bottle of any of her products are valued at over $100,000 USD.
* Flower Growth: she can grow flowers even out of people's bodies, using their lives as fertilizer.

## Plot

### Backstory

As a child growing up she lived alone with her master Abigail Marigold, deep in an unnamed forest of Gehenna. Due to this, she made no friends and had no social interactions and was unable to mature. Her master Abigail was like a mother to her, and was the only person she cared about. So when her master passed away from completing the Brand transfer, she had lost everything and fell into a deep depression.

A Senior Professior from Trinity Academy, Sophia Avenega, approached her constantly, trying to break her out of her depression, discover a purpose, become more sociable, and find a reason to live. Sophia eventually became her first and only friend, convincing her to leave the cottage she shared with her master and come to Trinity Academy, where she focused all her energy on the study of magic, to "Live like a Witch and a Noble," as her master's last words instructed.

### A Bad Start with Shin Siwoo

Despite Sophia's best efforts, Amelia's social, romantic, and sexual life remained non-existant, as she was a complete workaholic. This stalemate continued until Shin Siwoo was captured and brought to Gehenna as a slave, then sold to Trinity Academy. Sophia challenged Amelia's pride, by saying she couldn't seduce a man, so without any actual intention to sleep with him, Amelia asked Siwoo to come to her office at night, to prove she could.

Unfortunately for her however, Siwoo turned her down. This hurt her pride, and she retaliated by punishing Siwoo with constant chores, hard labor, humiliating him in class, and giving him endless insults and criticisms. But worst of all, although unintentional, she had his sleeping quarters reasigned to a decrepit barn.

### Making Reparations

However, as time went by, she realized he never complained, lied, or was lazy in his duty, and she began to respect and appreciate him, regretting her earlier harsh treatment of him. She had the desire to apologize to him, but her pride, immaturity, and lack of social skills made it impossible for her to do so. So instead she tried to compensate him with gifts; expensive cigarettes, cake, and fine clothing.

She intended to get closer to him during a shopping trip to Border Town, buying him clothes, and staying with him in Sophia's Cottage. However she got embarised when she discovered that Sophia's cottage was built like a love hotel and the night clothes were all langerei for sexual intercourse, and accidently burned the cottage down. This forced them to return to town to look for a room for the night, where they fell into the plot of a group of smugglers working for an Exile. Larissa gave Amelia alcohol that had been enchanted by the Exile, making Amelia fall alseep, then Siwoo was ordered at gun point to bring her to their ship, so they could take her to the Exile, who would consume her Witch's Brand, and with it, her life. Using his magic, he was able to sigil for help, and Sophia arrived to save them.

Although the trip did not go as planned, they did become a little closer, and Siwoo accepted the role as her personal slave and assistant. After returning to the Academy, she moved Siwoo from the damaged old barn, which she was horrified to discover he lived in due to her request, and into her mansion.

Later, when she went to his room to invite him on a late night walk, she found he was already gone. So she walked to his old barn, where she discovered the dimentional magic spell he was creating to return to Korea. She then returned to the house, where she saw Odile Gemini giving Siwoo a blowjob while he cleaned his cum off her twin sister Odette Gemini. Feelling jealous and turned on, she returned to her room, where she started sucking one of her potion vials, while imagining his dick.

### Denying Freedom

After the Gemini Countesses requested to buy his freedom, she refused, both because she knew he was already considered dead in the outside world and there was no longer a place for him there, but also because despite not realizing it yet, she had already fallen in love with him, and didn't want to lose him. The next morning she confronted him, intending to apologize for how she hurt him over the years, explain why it would be bad for him to go back, and offer him freedom and the position as her apprentice, but instead she immediately told him she wouldn't let him leave and skipped to her offer of apprenticeship. This was the last straw for Siwoo, who felt like she was just cruely and selfishly stomping over his dream of returning home, so he harshly yelled at her, and in her shock and emotional instability, she fled, running all the way back to the cottage in the unnamed woods, where she once lived with her master.

### Healing Siwoo

After speaking with Sophia she gathered the courage to return to her mansion just in time to see Siwoo being stabbed through his eyes and into his brain by Ea Sadalmelik. In her vengeful wrath she made flowers grow out of Ea's body, sucking the life from her. Then, with the help of the Gemini Countesses, she placed Siwoo under a spell to stop his internal clock while they searched for a way to heal his brain. This continued for a few months until Sophia found the exile healer Yebin Smyrna, and the Gemini Countesses obtained temporary permission for her to enter Gehenna.

Sophia and the twins tricked her into thinking her feelings from Siwoo were the product of a love potion and she reluctantly agreed to let Yebin heal Siwoo through sex. After the first night of treatment however, Amelia grew suspicious of whether Yebin was treating him seriously, and asked to watch the second night. However watching her man be taken by another woman proved to be too much for her, so she decided to erase the traces of the potion and her 'fake' feelings from her system, just to learn that there was no potion, and her feelings were real.

Yebin succeeded at healing his brain, but failed at awakening his conciousness, so Amelia turned to Duchess Keter for help. Keter used her age regession magic to return Siwoo's body and mental state to when he was a child, thereby not only restoring his concious, but also giving Amelia a chance to bond with him and repair their relationship. Keter also gave Amelia a potion that would slowly return his body to its adult state and return her memories. Amelia destroyed his slave contract, setting him free.

### Starting Over

Amelia brought him to her master's cottage, where she raised him the same way her master raised her, becoming a mother, elder sister, and teacher figure to him while they bonded. Amelia felt bittersweet about her time with the child Siwoo, enjoying yet feeling guilty about it, fearing how it would end when his memories returned, yet not wanting to run away or to step on his freedom any more. So despite thoughts about destroying the potion, she couldn't do it, and selflessly administered the proper dosages on time.

As Siwoo rappidly matured, he fell in love with Amelia, kissed her, and was about to take her first time, but she pushed him away in her guilt, saying she wanted that kind of relationship with him, but didn't deserve it. After that his memories fully awakened and he became cold and cruel to her, but internally he struggled between loving her and hating her, and being confused by the two very different sides of her. He eventually mentally overloads from her feelings and abandons her to return to the living world, leaving her a letter that they both need time to properly think about their feelings for each other. A letter she never opened.

A few weeks later. Duchess Keter visits Amelia in her hut in the woods and hands over a list with the names of homonculi, witches and their current locations, with an implicit explanation that if she doesn't kill every single person on that list, she will take back Siwoo. She then begins to pack and leaves to the living world to fulfill her task.

## Relationships

* Shin Siwoo: She has a love-hate relationship with him. Although she initially liked him as her man, his initial attitude towards her (mainly out of fear that he would become her experimental subject.) caused her to hate him with a passion, taking every opportunity to bully him and make him suffer. But eventually, she starts to realize her feelings for him and tries to apologize, but at this point his anger for her has been fully cemented and he is unable to stop hating her. The two temporarily separate but they eventually come back together during the new year's incident. They eventually forgive each other for their mistakes and try to fix their relationship together.
