some pointers about her
when she was only five years old , her mother passed away . an alpha werewolf killed her . one that was ordered to kill emissaries .
since that day , her father nolan has been taking care of her and it wasn’t until she was twelve when he finally opened up to holly about how her mother truly died . for years she was told her mother died from a fall in the woods during a jog .
holly was very close to her mother and her death broke her at such a young age . since then , she’s been determined to follow her mother’s steps and become an emissary . and part of her wants revenge against the werewolf that murdered her mother . that’s something she doesn’t tell though . ( i mean tbh this could ? open her up into becoming a darach BUT . . . !! we’ll see how things plot wise go with her , that’s a hella dark turn for a druid and involves sacrifices . )
when she was seventeen , her father moved them to the states and for a year , they lived in washington state , which allowed holly to study werewolves , and druid magic more and without fear .
after her father’s one year was up at the small college in washington , he decided to move to virginia for the same job and the fact that he got word of strange happenins within mystic . holly wasn’t thrilled to move as she had gotten some what comfortable in washington .
three months in living in mystic and she’s already learning a lot . she’s very well of the supernatural yet doesn’t say anything. she also will play dumb unless she is needed . meaning if she sees a werewolf hurting or in trouble , she’ll come to their rescue as she’s taken that oath in life .
the small tree of life necklace she wears was her mothers . it’s made of mountain ash . she never ever takes it off .
she’s got a small box in her bedroom on the shelf that has a bunch of herbs that druids use . she also carries a bottle of mountain ash in her purse just in case .
wanted connections - all platonic , enemies , etc. romance is chemistry based only
plots wanted - i’ll prolly put one in on the main later but -- the alpha that killed holly’s mom . ummmm , someone she gets super close to and realizes that she’s a druid . she has to trust them a lot .
the assistant came to work the closing shift, releasing lisa from the little shop. it did give her time to go home, not like she didn’t have things to do; between finishing the apartment, homework and ben the girl could drown in it.. today though she added something new to the list, sight seeing. it should be included right? moving to a new place offered the chance to discover the in and outs of it. get a feel of that land… lisa rolled her eyes at herself. her own thoughts becoming too much. a soft sigh passed her lips, gaze lingering around her surrounding. hoping to spot something interesting or a haven from herself. the only thing they seemed to spot though was another all too entranced with a book. lisa found herself almost more intrigued by the book than the engrossed stranger.
as she observed, attempting to spot the name of the book they spoke up. the brunette straightened in her spot offering a smile. “sorry you looked like you were enjoying your book i got a bit curious.”
|| ‒ gaelic was a language not many knew how to read . it was her mother who use to show her the basic words and after her death , her father took over . and for her sixteenth birthday , her father gave her -- her mother’s bestiary . every bit of it was in gaelic . and the last pages of it included every bit of the herbs that the druids used and how to use them properly . that gift was far better than any birthday party she had ever had . legs crossed as she gazed up at the woman, giving her a soft smile . “ it’s -- ok . i was just caught up with some power reading . “ holly chuckled . at least she was honest about it minus the fact that she was researching something that most human were so oblivious to . holly was fortunate to know what was hiding in the dark and even some of those things frightened her . werewolves as well even if her ancestry dealt with them and helped them . moving over , she offered the other a place on the bench . “ it’s just -- something i’m having to study for . . . class . crazy stuff but interesting . “
|| ‒ three months into living in mystic and she hadn’t met too many people . maybe it was because she was the new girl on campus or the fact that she stayed in her studies . it was what she was here for mainly right ? or was it the fact that her father forced her to up and leave just because he had a new job at the same college that she attended . either way , she was confused at his words . “ make friends and all will comes to light . “ that was what he told her -- and she found them confusing . how was making friends going to shed any light on her druid studies and learning the magic ? to her -- it sounded more like a distraction . eyes scanned over the book that she held while sitting cross legged on the bench , waiting for the traffic to calm down a bit so she could walk home . she heard rumors of things in class that sparked her curiosity . things that didn’t quite add up . or it could have just been a simple murder and nothing more but the way the body was mutilated apparently -- it wasn’t just some normal being . eyes lost in words until she heard a voice behind her , causing her to quickly close the gaelic written book .
