first things first, she doesn’t have any direct relation to lily (even though they have the same name), i just really like the last name cassidy and accidentally used it twice? #sorrynotsorry ANYWAY, she’s based of the song mariella by kate nash, which is a really beautiful song about a quirky girl that was different to the average person, but was just really happy in her own world and didn’t care that she was different??? so i made her into a witch lmao. essentially she lived with her family but always felt really out of place, but never really realised why, until when she was 12 and she found a really old, battered letter in her father’s office. she then finds out that she’s actually the daughter of her aunt, who was a witch, but had no idea of mariella’s existence (she was told that she had died shortly after being born) as her family didn’t want her being brought up as a witch. but when she finds out, she packs her bags and runs off to beacon hills to find her aunt and moves in with her. as the song suggests, she’s a strange, quirky girl, but is really sweet. i never really got to write with her much, so never really got to develop her much further than this, and haven’t picked her back up in over 2 years now?? but yeah, that’s my lil’, undeveloped mariella; my failed attempt at writing something supernatural based! // @fayofavalon
