## Personality

As a kid, Paris was more carefree and optimistic as she saw the best in everyone and really cared for other when hurt but that all changed when her family died and was "rescued" by her aunt.

Living with her aunt Paris was isolated and alone with her aunt being the only other person she knew, but even she was cruel and unstable caring only for her power and using Paris to only dispose of her afterwards. As years go by Paris' personality became more of a loner but her isolation made her more tough and more independent as each passing day went by so much so that when she had realized of what truly happened that day she grew with determination as she ran away from home only wanting to be free.

Meeting Alexander, she remained as her still-cold stoned self as she preferred to rely on her self more but at often times she'd soften up around Alexander who too was much like her and as time went by the two got closer and formed an almost father-daughter relationship which caused Paris to become her once more free-spirited self.

After her father's death, Paris lost her once joyful and optimistic personality that had been so lost in her and changed as she converted into a more a cool and careless personality as she proved be quite reckless but she always kept calm in even the most dire situations but seemed to get really upset and angry when those she cared for was really endangered. Paris has shown on many occasions that she acts as her own person not taking orders from even Alaric, her supposed leader as she does what she believes. She is also fairly kind and compassionate at times when she really needs to show it.

## Physical Appearance

Paris has brown eyes and light brown hair with significant highlights that enhance her already light brown hair. She is of Asian and European origin. Her hair is frequently curled or pulled into a ponytail. Paris' clothing consists primarily of a mysterious old school style, with the occasional leather jacket, high rise jeans, black boots, and a pretty fashionable blouse thrown in for good measure. Paris also favors skinny jeans, low-heeled boots, combat boots, sleeveless blouses, leather jackets, short skirts and very short shorts, as well as a wide range of dresses and makeup. Paris occasionally wears a lot of jewelry, such as chokers, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. She prefers loose-fitting clothing that doesn't restrict her movement, and she often wears extra pockets to store her numerous weapons. She also frequently wears a sheath around her waist, which she cloaks to prevent public attention.

## Powers and Abilities

* Early Life
* Hela’s Curse
* Post Curse

Paris was born with immense magical energy being the first born and successor to the Sayre family line, she was more than just gifted. At an early age, she demonstrated her magnitude for spells and magic, so much so that her father believed that she even exceeded his abilities, this is demonstrated when Paris performed a metamorphosis spell on a caterpillar into a fully grown butterfly, a feat meant for those in years of training to even attempt but Paris was able to do without even as much as trying. As Paris grew, her power eventually became too much for even her. Paris caused devastation when trying to do the simplest of spells such as casting a lightning storm when requested to cast a gust of wind. These incidents of magical episodes got worse as every spell she attempted was made worse from the decaying of plant life to invoking spontaneous fires, she was eventually shunned by her people who feared her devastating power, something they once honored and she was forced by her family to stop using magic altogether.

When she had her magic linked to her aunt, Hela Sayre, which augmented her magic, her once pure magic was tainted by her aunt’s black magic. At first it started slowly, but overtime her magic got weaker and weaker until the point where she could no longer practice magic and was limited to her fragile mortality. As her aunt grew in power, she was further weakened. As each day of her aunt being linked to her it only made her grow in power but leaving Paris unable to use her own magic.

It wasn’t until she escaped her aunt’s grasps she started to be able to practice magic again after meeting Alexander Berelc in the outskirts of the Phillipines. Though he was no witch himself he taught her to expel the darkness from within, through meditation and breathing techniques. This only furthered her understanding of the magic she once feared but learned to control it. Her once natural and pure magic, had believing she had rid of her aunt’s black magic which tainted hers and she began using her magic, she demonstrated her power by nurturing and growing fields of wheat, healing the wounds of an injured deer, and utilizing her telekinesis to stop Alexander from falling into the nearby river. This in term made her appreciate her magic again. However it was clear that she was much weaker compared to her years before her curse as according to her she still felt weak.

Along with her newly found magic she learned a range of skills. From forgery, agricultures, and swordsmanship she all learned from Alexander who was basically her adoptive father. In months, Paris was quick to understand and master the skills taught to her by Jeremy, and eventually was able to collect and forge her very own sword that she created an empty circle at its hilt where she placed her father’s talisman. As she believed it would represent both her and her past life in the sword she forged.

Paris attempted to battle her aunt, using her sword and newly found magic by controlling the grass to subdue her but when that failed she attempted a spell that would bind her to the Earth but was interrupted. Paris tried to battle her aunt and failed but released her extraordinary power at the sight of her father’s death, in that moment she unintentionally invoked her father’s talisman using it as a magic conduit to conjure up a storm which blew away her aunt, held her using telekinesis before chopping her head off. Unknowingly, Paris had bound the sword to the talisman, enchanting so that it would take the power of those it drew blood and so she took her aunt’s strength and added it to hers.
Paris over the 6 years traveling the world gave her more time to refine on her skills of swordsmanship but also martial arts and forgery. Ever since her battle with her aunt she directed towards enhancement magic, preferring to enchant her body, increasing her body’s overall strength, agility, senses, and speed.

Paris possesses all the typical weaknesses of a witch.

## Equipment

After joining the Inner Circle, Paris converted from her ways to witchery to a more combative and direct tactic. With the knowledge she received from Alexander of swordsmanship and her follow up days with Alaric and the Inner Circle, she was able to find and use a variety of weaponry which she added to her personal arsenal of equipment. Her arsenal primarily consists of her sword, her dual daggers, and other weapons she carries on her person. This on top of her being a rather proficient vampire hunter gave her access to some other tools outside of her traditional ones such as vervain grenades and stakes.
