Character
I solemnly swear that I accept the responsibility for my own actions.
Hawsie is the twenty-third successor of the True blood line of a powerful enchanter. This enchanter took the name of Brunanburh after serving King Æthelstan in the great battle of Brunanburh where the King won a great victory. They were amoung the many groups practicing within Briton and for a time was part of the ill-fated House Diedne. The main line perished with that house (or escaped with it) but a cadet line survived and prospered. When the Verbena Tradition was formed with the words of Nightshade and William Groth the Brunanburh were amoungst the last to join and will certainly be the last to depart; firmly situated within the Garderners of the Tree they carried on their strict search - an inheritance from the wyck they surely draw blood from - for the true incarnation of the grail of Bran the Blessed.
Things were on track for Hawsie. Heir to the sleeper fortune of the family and the secret magical lineage and already awakened at a relatively young age thanks to relentless preparation. The certainly of her path was challenged when she entered an old and supposedly elite boarding school whereas a series of unfortunate events resulting in some allegations of that -somebody- set a fire in the St.Bacchus's School for Girls. But that was really the fault of the vampire ghosts, wasn't it?

Paradigm
Primal and unchallenged Magic is everywhere. It is the root of all things; all the crafts, arts, and the knowledges serve but in reflection of the driving force of reality. Magic is life and life is magic! The vital spark, the surge of vital energy that brought fourth the creation of the Tellurian exists still in echoes and reflection; in the World Tree upon which all the worlds of the Sky and Earth are bridged and span out into the reaches of reality in a vast cycle of death and rebirth.
Root Styles
- Rune Carving
General Foci: Runes () to write changes with, Sympathetic Laws (Essences; take the strength of something, use something of it etc). Blood, as a conductor of life and ones own essence. Mirrors, wands, elements, fluids. Pentacles. Circles.
Correspondence:
Used Foci
Rotes
Hermetic Mercury Matter 3, Prime 2.
- Hawsie summons a bodysuit/armoured covering of hermetic mercury around her entire form granting protection from those foolish to attack.
Inventory
