Intuitive, dramatic (bordering on melodrama), cheerful, and creative to the point of quirkiness. She is by nature a very good liar, though she only does so if it’s necessary for her own protection. If she needs to put on a show, she will. Willa can be fiercely stubborn and temperamental if the situation calls for it.

When William was young, around five, he learned three important things about himself.
First, he learned that his surname had that funny little dash in it to connect his birth name to the surname of his mum and dad; what that meant, his parents explained gently, was that instead of growing in his mummy’s tummy, he had grown in someone else’s tummy, someone who couldn’t keep him. So his parents decided that they wanted to keep him, and raise him as their own. It made sense to William, and he was pleased that he was important enough for his parents to fight to get him.
Second, he learned that he could make things, not just with his hands, but his mind. They were poor copies, usually, funny shaped or flattened out and not three dimensional. And he couldn’t tell anyone, he realized, not even his parents, lest he be taken from them.
And third, William realized that he was a girl.
Fourteen years later, Willa Lance-Jones is a freshman in university and a rising talent in the Theatre program. She is inventive and clever in her scenes, and, somehow, always knows where to get the best props, though she’ll never tell where. Sometimes, Willa wonders where she came from, but any search she attempts leaves her more confused than when she started. So she had all but given up on finding out who she was, and was finally focusing on who she wanted to be, when that strange and menacing letter appeared. And now, she isn’t so sure that she wants to know.

• Mother = Thalia Jones
• Father = Percival Jones
• Brother = Olliver “Ollie” Jones

Willa is the kind of girl that both lives in her own world and completely knows the world around her, or at least acts like it. In truth, she’s just a really good actor. Oftentimes she feels lost, misplaced, like the life that she’s living is wrong somehow. Lots of teenagers say that they were born in the wrong century, mostly because their own romanticized versions of other periods seem so superior to their normal. But for Willa it couldn’t be more true. The world around her feels wrong. Clothes are too light and don’t cover enough skin. In a pair of shorts and a vest top, she feels naked, obscenely so, though she knows it’s in her head. Thankfully for her she lives in London. Technology both astounds and confounds her. Indoor plumbing is a miracle.
Still, she lives well and is determined to make a name for herself. Acting, especially stage acting, is her passion. Her first role, at age six, was as a wicked stepsister in her school’s “Cinderella”. Her mother fought for her to get the roll. She had only begun transitioning earlier that year, and was crushed when she originally received the role of a footman. She couldn’t be a footman if she wasn’t a man, she pressed. As Willa aged, she found she had to continue to fight for those prized female roles, though it became easier when she began taking estrogen injections at thirteen. Her vehemence paid off later in her school days, when she secured the role of Juliet in a local production.
Her home life has always been superb. Growing up with open minded, supporting parents helped her to strive for her goals without fear. Willa only hopes that she can take that confidence on this new journey as she begins to learn of her past, and her future,

If she needs one, she’ll make one. Growing up in theatre taught her the basics of holding and handling weapons, and she has enough knowledge of self-defense to keep herself safe. She's also pretty good in a fight; on more than one occasion she has had the necessity to forcefully ensure her proper pronouns were used.
