## Appearances

### First appearance

*The Crowns of Croswald*

**Ivy Lovely** is the main protagonist of The Croswald Series and the last remaining descendant of the Queenly line. She is a student at the Halls of Ivy and a member of the Quality Quills Club.

## Appearance

Ivy is described as having hazel eyes and long chocolate-brown hair.

## Personality

Ivy enjoys sketching, reading, and has a strong thirst for knowledge. Despite the slurry fields surrounding Castle Plum where she grew up dampening her magic, many of her hobbies growing up are reminiscent of scrivenry. Sheltered from magic for most of her life, she has an endless curiosity when it comes to the subject and is always eager to learn more.

She seems to have social anxiety when meeting new people, but this is especially apparent during her encounters with Damaris Dodley, who goes out of her way to publicly humiliate Ivy.

Ivy also has a fear of heights, but more than that she is loyal and selfless and can quell her fear if it means saving the people around her. In addition to people, however, she also seems to care a lot for all living creatures and doesn't like it when they're mistreated in any way. This may stem from her background as a scaldrony maid, where she tended to and cared for the scaldrons in Castle Plum's kitchen.

## History

### Early Life

Ivy was born on Moonsday and orphaned as a baby when the Dark Queen murdered her parents in a carriage accident. Winsome Monocle, scrivenist to Ivy's grandparents, recovered her from the accident and sent her to live at Castle Plum.

### Castle Plum

Ivy spent most of her life at the Castle Plum in the service of the Plum royal family as a scaldrony maid.

Her room at the castle was small and windowless, and used to be a grain larder, but the moisture in the room had made everything mildew. The floor, walls, and ceiling were all made of stone, and the ceiling was so low that Ivy had to stoop to get in and out of her makeshift bed. The forever-fitting dress that she's had since she was a baby was hung on the wall and she kept her sketches and the books Rimbrick let her borrow hidden nearby.

As a scaldrony maid, Ivy used to wake up at dawn to work, only leaving the kitchens when dusk had set. She spent most of her time in the kitchens, tending to the castle's scaldrons.

## Relationships

### Humboldt

Humboldt is a scaldron that Ivy rescues from the Castle Plum's kitchens and escapes with into the forest after Helga kicks them out and tells them to never return. Humboldt was previously referred to as "Number 19" when he was a scaldron for Castle Plum's kitchen, but after leaving the castle Ivy gives him a new name.

### Rimbrick

Rimbrick is a dwarf and Ivy's longest and closest friend. Although Rimbrick told her that they first met when she was five years old and arrived at the Castle Plum, Ivy suspects Rimbrick has known her since she was a baby.

When she lived at the Castle Plum, he only ever visited her during nights when there was a full moon. Ivy always felt cut off from the outside world because of her dull life as a scaldrony maid, but she was always anticipating Rimbrick's visits for the books he would bring her and the stories he would tell, full of magic and adventure. He would always depart by midnight and disappear into the dark forest on the other side of the Castle Plum's slurry fields.

## Trivia

* While at Castle Plum, Ivy kept her favorite sketches hidden in an inside pocket of her dress, while the rest of her sketches she burned so Helga wouldn't find them.
