Her sense of style is something some would consider an oddity, especially for her age. Jaiden can usually be seen darker colors, anything from sweaters, jackets, hoodies, and t-shirts, to sun dresses and things on the formal end of fashion. She'll gladly wear jeans, boots, and a t shirt for the night on the town, or sweat pants and sweaters on a cold night in her house. Whatever the occasion, she will always be seen with her 8mm gages that she has in both ears. She'll also be seen with an old locket made of copper hung around her neck, no one knows what's inside of the locket and she prefers to keep it that way as she always keeps it on a tight chain around her neck.

Despite her age, Ash is one for style, commonly dressing in things that tend to either be form-fitting or free-flowing that help make her seem less small. Her skin is of a soft, light brown tone while in direct sunlight it is somewhat pale, with dark brown eyes and a set of equally dark and curly hair sits atop her head which is usually covered by a hat or hood. She has been described as childish and dainty when meeting her for the first time as she is always seen moving or doing something that requires her to move, so some say she is rather unpredictable as they never know what she is going to do next. She is also described as being energetic and can usually be seen with a smile on her face that seems to be contagious for those that manage to see her smile.
Aside from clothing, she is covered in art, not exactly covered from head to toe, but she does have her fair share of tattoos, and for those that are lucky enough to see them, as she almost always wears long sleeves or jackets, they'll have seen the plethora that covers her body. On her back from shoulder to shoulder and that reaches down to the small of her back, she has what seems to bemetalic wings that seem to be molting while the majority are completely intact. On the right side of her torso, she has ancientrunes alongside her abdomen and no one seems to be able to understand what the mean exactly aside from her. She has elemental runes outlined and tattooed on her left bicep, it is one of her most noticeable tattoos if she is not wearing a long sleeves shirt or jacket. One of her last tattoos is three phases of the moon on her right forearm, that is her most prominent and noticeable tattoos, one that she has slight regret about getting. And lastly, her final tattoo is of a single black feather that ends in a flock of birds, which is tattooed on her right collarbone and is personally one of her favorites. After the attack in Greythorne transpired, Jaiden had decided to get one last tattoo as a way of remembering those that had fallen in the ensuing battle. Along her left wrist is a small tattoo, is a heart that wraps around her wrist fully, which ties into what appears to be an A along the underside of her wrist that faces her palm. Beside it are two semitranslucent pink fairy wings pointed upwards into the air. She has never had to say aloud for why she got it, but those that had known her long enough know the meaning and have never asked her about it..

Nature, first and foremost she loves and adores nature. From animals and sounds of nature itself, something about it brings a sense of peace and calmness to her | Coffee, Ash has a sweet tooth and something about the sweet and bitter mix of coffee is somewhat of a guilty pleasure as she knows it isn't exactly good for her | Horror and scary movies, she loves the feeling of the rush that horror films give her, but they have to be the classics, as the modern-day ones seem too predictable and not scary to her, if anything she finds them funny | Music, it doesn't matter what kind it is, except for country and rap, Ash will always have music playing wherever she goes as it helps her concentrate | Piano, guitar, and violin, something about those instruments to her are one of the few things she found herself spending the most time with from an early age | Art, Jaiden has a massive love for all art pieces, something about getting a peek into someone else's mind through art has always fascinated her | Photography, she can always be seen with a camera in her hand no matter where she is | Video games, she has a healthy love for video games and would gladly stay at home playing with friends if they weren't feeling well or just wanted to be lazy | Sweets, as mentioned before she has a love for anything that is sweet and contains sugar, especially cookies and cakes. If you offer her food you'll be more than likely on her good side until you manage to piss her off enough | Lumos, Nox, and Melvin, she would do anything for them and if it wasn't for her pets she doesn't know what she would do, seeing as they're the only family she's had for years by now | Plants, it was never a shock that she liked nature and plants as her home always had plenty throughout her house. But it was in recent years that her home was filled with more flowers, and in the months that followed after the attack she made sure to have a spot in her home infront of the window where the sun would always come in for her favorite flowers, Hellebore's, that in recent weeks have looked better and have seemingly begun to wilt and lose their...magic |
D I S L I K E S
Fire, contrary to popular belief she absolutely hates fire as even simply the smell or the heat it radiates causes panic and anxiety to find its way through her, therefore, she hates that is what she possesses as a witch. But after the attack on Greythorne, she learned to harness her power and has been shown to be a rather powerful Pyromancer, uncontrolled and easily angered, but incredibly powerful | Sour Foods, something about the taste and consistency they have always gave her a stomachache afterwards | Silence, as it causes massive waves of anxiety to rush through her | Loud or sudden noises, as they can be unpredictable anything that goes off without warning scares her more than they do to others | Cars and vehicles, she hates anything to do with cars ever since she was a child and would gladly walk through the coldest weather to get to where she needs to be than get into a car | Hurting anyone else, the last thing she wants to do is hurt anyone else ever again so as often as she can she prefers to be by herself | Herself, as mentioned prior, she doesn't like the idea of possibly hurting anyone else, which in turn has caused her to have some self hate for having hurt the people she loved in the past | Most religions, as her kind has been tortured and killed for false accusations in the past hundreds of years | Failure, partially the fear of failing to save someone else again. She's lost everyone she has ever truly loved and she doesn't think she could handle it happening one more time, or Greythorne may just burn to the ground ||

Jaiden is a bit of an oddity, to say the least. Normally she is a shy, quiet, socially awkward recluse that is constantly home as she is self-employed as a graphic designer and freelance artist that is either too busy to go outside and see her few friends that she has, or she's simply not feeling it and would rather stay in her room and work, play video games, or read some light novels in her room by herself with some soft music in the background while drinking tea or coffee. But at the same time, she can be a happy and bubbly outgoing person who wants to go out on the town and go to bars and clubs with her friends, that once she gets drunk enough she is easily a flirt with her friends when normally she is rather awkward and reserved.
Much like the element that she possesses control over she is one that is easy to piss off and be angered easily and as some of her friends have referred to her as "hot-headed", the pun intended or not is all the same to her. She can be happy and laughing with friends one second and something can be said and she can easily be upset and storms off until she calms down enough to come back and go back to having a good time with her friends. When left alone with certain people she is seen as kind and caring, as well as a good listener and shoulder to cry on from time to time, always happy to lend a listening ear from those she holds close. But even then for those, she holds close, she holds them at an arms reach and then some, never wanting to get too close to someone in case she hurts someone else again, and if she were to she could never forgive herself. Which is another reason why she feels like the odd one out in her friend group, a small voice at the back of her mind constantly telling her that they don't actually like her but find her more of a burden and sometimes even a freak, which causes her to stay at home and only really go out when her friends reach out to her first, otherwise she could have continued living in her home by herself and her pets for the rest of her life.
But everything changed after the attack, Jaiden was left rather....rattled. More so than the others. With the loss of the one she ever really had any feelings for since moving to Greythorne, it took a rather large toll on her in both mental and physical sense. After seeing the murder of someone she held so dear, she made it a promise to never let it happen again and not just standby and be passive. But to act out in the moment, and that sometimes words won't work and actions will. Since then she had been rather moody and tends to lean more towards being to herself compared to having been out of her shell for a while, until everything went south. Jaiden has made sure that no matter what, if an attack were to happen again, that she doesn't just freeze and go the peaceful route, as that only ended up having someone be murdered brutally. She is only prone to nightmares now as she suffers with major ptsd and trauma. She doesn't like going out at night by herself or having to go through those damn streets and alleyways.
Jaiden is trying her best to recover from the events that transpired. Finding reassurance in herself and her control over her powers due to Markus and the others she started to use her abilities more and has managed to become more controlled than she was prior. Her powers are still tied to her emotions, but she has a bit more control of them and embraces it more than she had in years due to never wanting to lose someone else like she had prior.

| Juliet Price | Mother | 42 | Witch | Deceased |
Jaiden and her mother had been close at best and distant at worst of times, which happened to be more often than not as Jaiden was the "Black Sheep" in her family. As their relationship had been estranged and distant for years, while her passing was hard for Jaiden at first, she was able to move on from it rather easily as time had passed.
| Nathaniel Price | Father | 43 | Human | Deceased |
Jaiden and her father were much more close than her and her mother, which had caused even more of a distance in the family. Her father was the main reason why she had such a love for music growing up as he had been a well-known musician and photographer in the past in their small hometown and had made sure that both his daughters had played at least one instrument when they grew up, which caused their bond to be stronger than it otherwise would have. When he died she was broken and had taken months to almost a year to fully get over his passing, but even still then she still has hard times thinking about him and the fact that he is gone.
| Ellen "Ellie" Price | Sister | Last seen age: 25 | Human | Unknown |
Growing up the sisters had been close beside the sight age gap. They did everything together and were always with each other until they got older and grew up, but their love for video games and art and things like D&D and anything that was relatively nerdy had kept their bond close. But after the accident, their relationship was never the same after Ellen had been rushed to the hospital and refused to see her sister after that tragic event that left them parentless. All Jaiden wants is for her and her sister to reconnect and be back on good terms, but she doesn't know where her only remaining relative is and the thought of never seeing her again scares her more than anything.

H I S T O R Y
Jaiden grew up in a normal childhood, or as normal as one would be able to consider as she was raised by a mother who was a Witch, and a father who was a human. Life was good for her and her older sister, they lived as much of a privileged life as their parents could let them as they were both hard-working people and made a name for themselves as their mother was a Housing Agent and their father was a well-known photographer. They lived their lives day to day and as close as they could until Jaiden turned twelve, the day her powers were finally awakened would turn things on their head. Their mother never told Nathaniel that she wasn't human and when Jaiden started showing signs of taking after her mother, it only raised red flags. It started out small, her temperature started rising and she would constantly be warm even if she was outside when the weather was -10*. Things grew worse when things would randomly start to catch on fire or combust with no apparent reason at all, seemingly without a known cause.
It was only when it was made known that it was Jaiden causing things to catch fire or explode that things really started heading south. With her not understand what it meant and with her parents began to argue back and forth as he felt betrayed and lied to that their mother never told them the truth that Jaiden became a recluse. She turned to music and photography more than she ever did before, finding few comforts in the little things. Her relationship with her sister had actually grown with the awakening of her powers, as Ellen had found it amazing and interesting that she could create fire out of what seemed to be thin air. Things seemed to be getting better as her parents argued less, they didn't stress as much as Jaiden reassurance in her parents' acceptance of what she was as her mother helped teach her how to help control and put away her abilities and hide them as well as she could.
It was when she turned seven-teen years old that things took a complete nosedive and would change her life forever. She came home from school to find her parents arguing again. They always argued, but this...this was different. Her father and mother were yelling and screaming at one another, her father yelling and screaming how he couldn't take having such a freak as a daughter, nevermind as a wife and that he wanted Jaiden and her out by that evening. Jaiden pleaded with him to listen to her and that she promised she'd never hurt anyone and that she'd never use her powers again to just make him happy. But he simply stated that he wished she wasn't his daughter and that he wanted them out. She was devastated and as she tried to hold her conflicting emotions together, a small spark caught on and spread through the house, faster and faster as her emotions slowly unraveled until the entire house had caught on. Nothing else but a blaze of fire and smoke overtook the house all too quickly as Jaiden had managed to leave the house as Ellen chased after her before the house exploded with their parents still inside the inferno. After the police and fire team made it to the scene it was entirely too late, there was no way inside and if they even did try it was useless, there was no way that not even someone as powerful as her mother would have been able to escape the blaze. It was ruled out as an accidental fire, which left the girls homeless, orphaned, and slightly injured from the explosion. Jaiden had received minor cuts and scrapes, and a fractured arm, and a lasting scar along her back. While her sister, Ellen, had received far more severe injuries which had her rushed to the hospital.
It was weeks after the accident that it was announced that Ellen was in a coma, with next to no expectations of coming out of it anytime soon. Jaiden spent weeks visiting the hospital in hopes of Ellen waking up, but with signs of no improvement, and after being told that she should just stop coming to visit as it would only make things worse. She ran. And hasn't looked back yet, but does have regrets.
It tore Jaiden to pieces to leave her sister and her hometown, but she knew it was for the best and with whispers of a town filled with people like her in British Columbia, Jaiden made her way to Graythorne where she currently resides today. When she initially arrived at the town, she didn't know what she was looking for exactly. But first it required her to change her name and identity, as well as lying about who she was and why she came there. She hasn't told anyone of what happened back in the states and doesn't plan to. Living in not only a new town, but also an entirely different country was scary and terrified her even more. She was already scared by what caused her to run, but after meeting some that were like her, two witches specifically, her life changed forever. At first, she had no idea what to think of those two losers. But as time went on, she came to love them and consider them her best friends, and they have done nothing but fuel their chaotic energy and mayhem in Greythorne since then. But years had passed by now, and things were good. She made a name for herself as a costume designer and freelance artist that lived by herself, but after the attack on Greythorne, that resulted in several deaths, including the murder of the one she ever truly loved, a female fae that had been one of her closest friends. Since then, she has done nothing but blame herself for being too weak and scared to have done anything. And as a result, she's been taken in by Markus and has been trying her best to keep herself together, but with the looming fear of the Hunters returning at any moment, Jaiden has put most of her time in perfecting her powers and control over them. Now she waits patiently for them to try and attack the town's people again now that she isn't as weak and foolish as she was before. As well as wanting revenge against the one that took away the one she cared for most.

Much like the rest of the Witch race, Jaiden was born with supernatural gifts and abilities that one would usually love to have and use to its greatest potential. But unlike most Witches, Jaiden despises what she was born with and wishes nothing more than to get rid of what she was what she considered cursed with. As she was born with the ability to control, create, manipulate and bend fire to her every whim. But as everyone knows fire is an incredibly unpredictable and devastating element. And as such, it is highly intuned with her emotions, specifically anger and frustrations, making her the last person that one would want to piss off as it would usually end with something, or someone catching or combusting into flames. Ash was also born with the negative of being a Witch, she is incredibly weak if exposed to silver usually resulting in a burn or rash, and on extreme exposure large lesions and red patches forming on her skin which can usually cause infections if not treated which results in fevers and having to stay in bed which is usually why she is susceptible to being sick.
T A L E N T S
| Cooking, it shouldn't be much of a surprise that she is a rather skilled cook as she lived by herself for a while as well as being a natural in the kitchen | Costume making/cosplay creation, she was always big into making things and sewing. And as such she has been able to make some of the best costumes that Greythorne had ever seen and has been one of the go-to people for costume commissions | Since the attack and death of some of the others in the town, Jaiden took it upon herself to help with some of the stores and as such she had seemingly out of nowhere grown to have more of a love for plants and nature, particularly flowers | Pyromancy, in recent times she had garnered control over her abilities with somewhat of too much ease and has also been cause for alarm for how in tune she is with her magic. Especially when she is angry or in a fit of emotional stress. But for the most part she has garnered far more control than she had prior |
S T R E N G T H S
| Recently garnered control over her powers, with it has been trial and error which has resulted in her accidentally burning things and herself which has resulted in a few scars, but she is much more powerful than she was prior. She can summon pillars of fire with simple ease and a snap of her fingers, or form a wall of fire with more concentration. Over time she hopes to perfect her control and mastery over her abilities just incase she would ever have to fight again, which she has a feeling she may have to | Her determination to look after her friends and make sure that they are okay, especially after the attack on Greythorne | She picked up playing the acoustic guitar a few years ago and has managed to create some songs since then, and is often seen playing it more often now than she did before the attack | Cooking, seeing as how she had to rely on herself for food for a while, it isn't exactly surprising that she is a talented cook and since she moved in with Markus her skills have improved since then |
W E A K N E S S E S & F E A R S
| Chronic nightmares and night-terrors, after the attack her nightmares became more frequent and as such she started to stay at Markus' place until she was simply told to just live with him as he never really went anywhere and she'd always have someone there for her | Her trust in people has dipped even more and has a hard time going out in public and as such she stays in her and Markus' place more often now than before | She is even more easily angered if someone provokes her with simple things such as mentioning the attack in her presence or takes it not very seriously | She is terrified of not being able to save anyone and as such she practices her magic almost religiously and as such she barely sleeps anymore, when she isn't asleep she's most likely with friends due to Markus or the others, or she's burning something | Falling in love with someone again, to only have them brutally murdered infront of her again, and as such she is somewhat against forming a relationship with someone again. But at the same time she is a hopeless romantic and is often conflicted with how she feels, as well as feeling like she'd be betraying them if she felt something for someone else |
