HEADCANON DUMP ; ZELLA LUPIN
headcanons from previous blog
zella hates wearing shoes. ever since turning into a wolf, she hates it, so now she walks around barefoot
zella has minimal Zoolingualism, due to her being a wolf - it is a learnt power for her, most of the time it was with actual familiars & other wolves
zella’s freeze range is HIGH and FAR, this is due to it being practices for just under 300 years but now, as a human again, she sometimes can’t unfreeze things because she can’t unfreeze with her pitch of voice anymore, she can only freeze with her pitch of voice (mostly a growl)
zella was always destined to be an empath, it was destined to be her first power but because her father bound her powers as a baby, by the time she had them unbound, molecular immobilisation came to her first because it was the power she needed at the time. so, as the years went by and she was a wolf, her empath power came to surface. it was light and she just thought that it was due to her long time being a wolf, that she had gained that ‘emapthy’ that animals have towards those they care about.
so, now in human form, she thinks that it is left over from being a wolf. that it will fade away. but it’s getting stronger but she already as some sense of control over it. this power had developed fifty years ago.
her father had bound her powers as a baby, and just before kicking her out, unbound them because he wanted her to have a way to protect herself.
she had spent two months in the woods before she found the witch, and it took her a month after the witch’s death before she found herself back home
zella lives with johnathan and he is helping her with working modern tech, because while she was around when it was all introduced, she was a wolf at the time, therefore unable to use any of it
she is able to freeze things with the pitch of her own voice, much like she did as a wolf, but now has to learn how to do it with her hands because it still works with her hands.
it’s been three months since she was turned back human, she has been doing her best to adjust back to this life. sometimes it’s hard and she does still have some wolf instincts.
she has kept the necklace that johnathan had put around her when she was a wolf, around her neck. she has never taken it off. it serves as a reminder to her brother, to her family that she lost.
the bag that is always with her, still never leaves her side, even when she no longer is a wolf. she also kept the book her witch mentor had. in fact, she also, grabbed a ring and bracelet. the ring, her sister’s and the bracelet her step mothers. after turning back to human, she found that her father had put in her mother’s favourite necklace in there. zella thought that she was taken with it on her. ( her father casted a spell to bring it back to him; then gave it to her )
the jewels her father had given to her, were enchanted by him so that they will never leave her. they always returned to her. - even in wolf form
johnathan’s necklace that he had put around her, was one that had been passed down for years, and was the necklace that would tell them if they have found the right wolf, for if the wolf’s eyes glowed, they had found their wolf.
while, in salem by the time zella was born the witch trials were over, they weren’t in the town she was in. they still believed in witches, and killing them. in fact, most witch hunters she has come across are descendants of those from her town.
her mother was mortal and came from a big rich family. it was because of this that some of the people questioned how they had acclaimed their wealth as most of the family were female. then, slowly, a lot of her family starting dying due to sickness until only, her mother, her father and herself were left. this caused the town to riot and claim that she was a witch. her mother, knowing her father’s secret of being a witch, took the blame. to protect her daughter and husband, she let the men take her and kill her.
when she was young, it was believed that only females could be witches, which is why her father and brother got so easily over looked as being witches.
it was only after her father died, and she turned into a wolf when the passage about a cursed daughter, and how to change her back into the family’s book of shadows
