Data
Name: Verity Melodía
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Appearance: Verity is about 4'10" with purple eyes and ginger hair. She generally wears a dark blue cloak.
Personality: On the exterior, bitter, sarcastic, and cynical. Deep down (very deep), sensitive and underconfident. Quiet and introverted.
Abilities/Powers
Under certain circumstances (see Equipment), she can harness and utilize naturally-occurring magic (which can be found in all forms of matter), and manipulate it and use it as she sees fit. There's a lot of technobabble on how this works, but it'd take a long time to explain. Anyway, the result is that she has a unique brand of magic that doesn't require any incantations, runes, or what have you (except for the sake of coolness). Instead, all she needs to do is make a certain gesture with her hands or body. Think of it as an "if/then" command (e.g., "If I snap my fingers, then a bolt of lightning strikes the target"; "If I make a circular motion with my finger, then the car does a backflip). Her magic is limited only to her imagination/sense of logic and several laws of nature--e.g, she can't control time, resurrect the dead, kill immortals, stop unstoppable forces, move immoveable objects, etc..
In meta terms, it's limited by one's willing suspension of disbelief: if it doesn't make sense or would make you cry foul, then she can't do it.
Additionally, if she uses magic to create a physical object, she needs to either A. give it a specific action or duration or B. hold her concentration on that object. Otherwise, the object dissipates (the larger/more complex the object, the faster the disipation).
Equipment
Her (unbreakable) staff, which can convert natural-occurring magic into a state that she can use. She also has a revolver--specifically, a Schofield Model 3--hidden in her cloak for emergencies.
History
Verity was born in a world of magitek. What started as an attempt to get new friends at her new school turned into your run-of-the-mill plot of Verity fighting an abombination threatening to destroy or take over the world...or is it? Regardless, when it was all over, Verity found herself at Castle Praetorius. She decided to live there, but a quirk resulting from the spatial-temporal mismatch of Tandy and the castle when it visited created a second Verity, one that remembers everything that the original Verity does, except that she had refused to remain in Castle Praetorius and wound up in Tandy instead, and has lived there with Khristie and Irene ever sense.
