## Biography

### Early Life

She has a sister named Agatha, who is a year younger than her. When Agatha was born, Erika spent the night in her crib protecting and taking care of her. A few years later when Erika was ten, she was looking after her sister at the beach and went to say hello to some of her friends quickly but Agatha was annoyed at this and went rock climbing, something Erika had forbade her from doing, Agatha fell and was sent into a three week coma. Erika tortured herself during this time and promised that she would never leave her side again.

### Training at the Eyrie

#### Hatchling year

She began training at the Eyrie in the 1990s and before she left, her and Agatha searched for ways to get a unicorn if you couldn't open the Hatchery Door and eventually they found a book about forging bonds so they made a plan, she would steal an egg and keep it for Agatha in case she couldn't open the door the next year. On the summer solstice, Erika opened the door and stole one of the eggs destined for one of the next year's riders. She gave her sister the egg and she hid it for the rest of the night. Erika took the egg from Agatha to hide in the Wilderness until the following year and promised that she would return the egg if Agatha opened the Hatchery door. She didn't keep her promise, but she insisted that she had returned the egg. She had instead forged *herself* a bond with the unicorn. At the end of the year, she won the Training Trial.

### Adult Life

She became a professional rider in the early 2000s and she won and became Commodore in 2005 and 2004 but in 2006, her unicorn, Blood-Moon's Equinox was killed in battle. Her bond was snapped the second it happened, it must have been done by another spirit wielder. Out of anger, she killed twenty-four unicorns at the Chaos Cup Qualifiers, they would be remembered as the Fallen Twenty-Four. Shortly after, she went missing from the Mirror Cliffs and was presumed dead. She had actually gone to the Mainland.

#### Erika to Rosemary

Erika changed her name to Rosemary and met a man called Robert Smith. They then had two children; Kenna in 2008 and Skandar the year after. She then faked her death once more and travelled back to the Island and became the Weaver, a killer and thief.

### The Weaver

She painted her face so that a white stripe covered most of her face. She began breaking the bonds between riders and unicorns and giving them to her followers.

### Meeting her Son

After the 2022 Training Trial the Weaver made her move. She started by taking Silver Blade from Flo, whom had finished the race already and took Blade to the barren land around the island. Skandar and his Quartet followed behind using Skandar’s powers to find her, due to Flo’s link with Silver Blade

Coming face to face Skandar sees exactly how scary Erika can be but puts his faith in bringing her back to her more human side. Erika tells Skandar that he will take their unicorns and bond them to her followers.

Skandar eventually reveals their relationship and attempts to break through to her to come back to being Rosemary. Erika, on the other hand seems to care more about Kenna than Skandar. Erika offers Skandar the chance to take his place at her side, which Skandar refused after considering it for a second. This sends Erika into a rage and thus she attempts to attack Skandar with New Age Frost.

Using the powers of her Silver Unicorn Flo manages to stop Erika from attacking Skandar, while using his own power he manages to break the bond of every single wild unicorn present, as well as that of New Age Frost.

Erika retreats on her own bonded wild unicorn (The same one she had as a younger girl) and flees to fight another day.

### Revenge on the Island

Still sore from her defeat at the previous year Erika meets the Flame-Eyed rider and puts her plan into action. This plan involves two parts, bringing her daughter Kenna Smith to the Island and teaching the Silver Circle how to kill Wild unicorns.

When Kenna is being held by the Silver Circle the Flame-Eyed Rider arrives and gives Kenna a letter from her mother. Saying she will rescue her at the Summer Solstice. Kenna, however escapes before this time.

Erika later meets Kenna after making Kenna’s destined unicorn flee. She takes Kenna to the Hatchery so they can pick Kenna a wild unicorn to bond her to, so she would have one of her own. Erika attacks the sentinels and the Silver Circle, including Dorian Manning. After this Erika bonds Kenna to the chosen wild unicorn and then flees after leaving Kenna alone.

With her bond Kenna is able to proxy the water element with her Brother and her quartet.

After this Erika flees once again and meets the Flame-Eyed rider, whom wonders why they went through all the effort to get Kenna and then simply leave her at the Eyrie. The Weaver is unconcerned and simply muses that "Kenna Everhart" is where she needs to be.

### Personality

When she was a young girl Erika cared deeply for her Sister Agatha and always wanted her to be together. She was deeply protective also after Agatha had hurt herself rock climbing. She seemed to have a decent relationship with her Mother and Father, her Father also being a Spirit Wielder.

When she turned 13 she was bonded with Blood Moon’s Equinox and loved him above all else. However she fell into a deep rage when he died. Spurring her to abandon her life as “Erika” and become the Weaver. She killed 24 other unicorns in an act of rage and began life as an outsider.

Despite being a murderer, Erika did have some sense deep down. She attempted to leave the Island forever and become a family woman. Falling for Robert Smith and changing her name to Rosemary Smith. Even blessing him with two children, Kenna and Skandar. However his love, and that of her children was not enough to quell the bond inside of her to her second unicorn and she left once again for the Island.

Over the years Erika has become less human as she rarely shows any emotion and instead concentrates everything on her pursuit of power. Even ignoring the words of her son Skandar, and even tries to kill him. According to Agatha this seemed to be down to the wild unicorn she had bonded to, as it's fury at being ignored and shunned for years had rubbed off on Erika.
