## Other

### Family

## Appearance

Holly has long, slightly curly hair, pale skin, and silver eyes with a purple hue. She loves to wear pink, frilly outfits, but at the same enjoys more dark, morbid, and gothic outfits. Often times, her outfits will incorporate a mix of both.

When she disguises herself to become Glinda, she keeps the black and pink asthetic. The ends of her hair becomes pink. She wears a pink knee length dress with long pink socks underneath.She wears a long sleeved black shirt underneath the dress, with a pink and gold collared garment above it that I do not know the name of. This garment also has 2 black teardrop looking jewels attached. Her shoes are black ribbon shoes and she has pink ribbons tied around her wrists. She has a black ribbon tied around her waist. She has a pink ribbon tied around her neck and another tying her hair up into a ponytail. She has a black backpack in the shape of a cross tombstone.

The tombstone backpack is full of spell components, candy, water, an emergency blanket, and a rope. Each of her ribbons has an enchantment on it to give her superhero-like abilities.The ribbons around her waist boost her stamina, the ribbons on her wrists boost her strength, the ribbon on her ponytail makes her lighter, the ribbons on her legs makes her able to jump higher and farther, and the ribbon around her neck boosts her pain tolerance. The garment over her shirt and dress is enchanted to make her face and voice automatically forgotten. She calls the black teardrops on her collared thing her "get out of jail free cards." She can pop one off and eat it to teleport back to the safety of her house.

## Personality

she likes to talk to people but never actually really gets close to anyone. Even her closest friends don't even know her birthday. She never rants to anyone about anything. She's cheerful and hardworking and can be kind of a push over when it comes to some things. She likes to think she would never commit a crime, but can be tempted if she believes that its for the greater good. She daydreams a lot and aspires to one day be able to bring back the miraculouses and being able to fight crime alongside the heroes.

When she becomes Glinda, she becomes confident, even more cheerful, and bold. She almost always seems so happy, like she's having the time of her life. Whenever rescuing people, she does her best to help them feel at ease.

## Her Umbrella

It's stuffed with enchantments to make it an excellent defensive and offensive weapon. It can't shoot lasers or anything like that, but it can be used like a sword and a boomerang. It's also a shield and a parachute and can be shrunken down into a little umbrella charm when not in use. It can also be summoned back to her hand 5 times before it needs half an hour as a cooldown time and it can't be summoned through objects. It will just smack into the wall. It can phase through people though. The most vulnerable part of the umbrella is the bar thing, which is very hard to break, as its metal, but if you manage, the umbrella is completely useless until it's either repaired or the enchantments are transferred somewhere else, which takes time.

## Her magic

In holly's magic system, there are 2 types of magic: passive and aggressive. Passive doesn't take much magic, but takes some time to do while aggressive magic takes a lot of magic but is almost instant. Personality determines which magic is easier for you to learn. Passive magic does stuff like cleaning magic, enchanting items, summoning creatures, and putting curses on people, while aggressive magic does stuff like chuck fireballs at people and summon a giant storm to strike people with lightning.

The magic's like a muscle/skill so you have to really build it up over time and not using it will make it harder the next time you use it.

It's also a dying art, as it's both pretty secret (kinda, Holly's already blabbed about it far too much than she should have), and you have to really work hard to keep your magic in shape, which is a thing that can be difficult for people between their work life, social life, and other things life might throw their way.

## History

she's really secretive when it comes to certain parts of her past. She'll happily talk about how she'd practically torn apart pawn shops and thrift stores, desperately hoping to find a miraculous so that she could be a hero too, back when the miraculous holders were still around, but she'll definitely avoid talking about things like her parents, why she lives with her grandma instead of her parents, and similar things.

## Trivia

* she's got a weak stomach. Just the smell of certain foods is enough to make her puke. She also can't eat some things as well, simply due to the texture.
* Sewer smell is hell for her.
* She has an dog named Citrus that's 10 years old. She's a golden retriever.
* Her grandma is 419, because magic. She says she ain't gonna "yield the crow a pudding" until she's at least 420.
* Her grandma likes to think she's a cool grandma. After all, cool grandmas let their grandkids become superheroes, summon "commies" (kwamis), and plot to overthrow the government, right?
