**Sheila "Lia" Abby St. John-Bennett** is a main character in *Legacies*. Lia is the tribrid daughter to Enzo St. John and Bonnie Bennett. She is the granddaughter to Abby Bennett Wilson and Rudy Hopkins. She is the great-granddaughter to Sheila Bennett. She is the older sister to Lucy Bennett.

Lia's first name is named after her great-grandmother. Her middle name is Abby after her grandmother and she takes the surname St. John-Bennett after her father and mother's last name.

As a result of her unique heritage she is a unique tribrid. She inherited her vampire gene from her father and her witch and psychic gene from her mother.

**Lia** is a member of the **Bennett Family** and **St. John Family**.

## Personality

Lia can be out going, funny, but also serious. She has a good sense of humor and very intelligent in witchcraft. She is seen usually reading her mothers grimoire. She is close to her honorary cousins, but other than that she doesn't have friends. She is very blunt, not caring about people feelings she doesn't know.

Lia is very particular about her name. It is implied that she allows people to call her "Lia" when she feels that they are friends. The people she'll allow to call her Sheila are her parents and honorary aunts. She prefers to be called "Miss Bennett" but does not mind being called "Miss. St. John-Bennett" seeing as she adores both of her parents very much.

## Powers and Abilities

Lia is first tribrid of vampire-witch-psychic in the world.

* Witch Nature
* Psychic Nature
* Vampire Nature

Since it's impossible for vampire's to procreate there is no telling the extent of Lia's powers. Lia was born with magic of her own and is a very strong witch but with vampire blood running through her veins her magic could be tainted along the way.

Lia has doubted herself saying that she could never be as strong as her mother, but she's seen doing very powerful spells. She's seen to take down Jed easily as he tries to attack her.

Though Lia hasn't used her psychic side that often she has seen looking through MG's mind to see how he truly feels about Nina in *We're Being Punked, Pedro*.

Lia has been learning from her mother on how to hone her psychic abilities and not have them take control of her.
Before becoming an activated tribrid, her blood is able to heal herself, such as when she sliced open her hand. Her blood can be used to sire new vampires. After activating her vampire side, Lia showed great proficiency in utilizing her vampire powers.

## Weaknesses

Lia has inherited great power from her mother, seeing as she's apart of the Bennett line of witches. If she grows unstable she could die if not taught to contain it.

As the world's first hybrid of witch, psychic, and vampire, the full extent and limits of Lia's weaknesses are currently unknown.

Nature created an oak tree near the death and rebirth of Lia. It's a Sacred Oak tree in front of the school. The sacred oak tree, when sharpened to a stake, is powerful enough to kill Lia.
