Personality
Like her kind, Wyn is an intelligent creature inclined to aid and guide others. Yet, despite her good intentions, her suggestions are more harmful than helpful, though it is often the ego that suffers. Since Weir's tragedy and with Ann's knowledge, she has grown more helpful with her advice. When it comes to decisions, she turns to a highly developed intuition that results in solutions that seem to come from thin air. Wyn does enjoy utilizing logic as well, particularly when satisfying her curiosity of the world. The one area she seems to avoid is the emotional, possibly in attempt to avoid the guilt of Weir's death, as she tends to suppress her feelings. Wyn is an adventurer, one who thirsts for new experiences and enjoys engaging her senses. She can be friendly once she warms up to you, but most find her a bit too distant or blunt for their liking. Otherwise, she can be a bit wild and rebellious, and others are often pulled in by her child-like enthusiasm whether they realize it or not. Her loyalty and allegiance to others is questionable, for she tends to think of herself before others, but she makes a knowledgeable ally and cunning rival.
History
Out of desperation and loneliness, a elderly Major Thomas Weir had summoned a creature from the beyond with the family pet serving as its container. It revealed its name to be Wynowe through telepathy and remained silent for the remainder of the soldier's life. To it, he confessed his life-long incestual sin with his sister, Jean, along with the other benefits he gained through the use of the dark arts. He was a puritan with a double life, one that he could no longer keep hidden. He looked to the familiar for guidance and though Wynowe was wise, she knew nothing of this world's customs. She wished to help, as was the nature of her kind, but her suggestion resulted in his confession and later, execution under the charge of witchcraft. Naturally she was saddened but more so frightened as she soon learned, she needed Weir. Without his magic to sustain her, she grew weak and her feline form began to fail. Resourceful still, Wynowe managed to climb into a flask and force the cork on, giving herself a new container. Though it was not the strongest, it was more permanent than the shell of a living creature, and so she entered a protective slumber in apprehension.
17 years before the present time, she was found by another witch, a mother named Ann. She was visiting the Quacker Meeting House where Weir's house once stood and had discovered the flask along with other belongings buried behind the building, possibly by a servant who wished to keep Weir's evidence hidden. Knowing what they were, Ann brought the treasure home. Her plan did not seem so impossible now, what with the discovery of this familiar. Her daughter, a sickly babe, was on the verge of death and required life energy. Though Wyn was dormant, she was very much alive and likely willing to merge with this human in order to gain a new shell. At least, that's what Ann had hoped. She performed the ritual and was overjoyed to find her daughter's crying had ceased.
She grew up as a human, experiencing the world that Weir had kept her from. Ann grew to love her the familiar, despite realizing that it was unlikely that her daughter survived and that Wyn had simply taken over the body. Due to the natural inclination toward magic in her daughter's blood, Wynowe was able to sustain herself without depending on Ann's magic. She grew powerful enough to regain her previous form as a cat and was able to shift between the two. Eventually, she was enrolled at Lignum Portum where she resides today.
