Kind ✿ Sweet ✿ Determined ✿ Smart ✿ Naive ✿ Warm ✿ Cheerful
Holly is a very sweet and caring young lady, always willing to help those in need. Although she's pretty shy and somewhat anxious, she's a friendly person and won't run away from conversations. Sadly, she's pretty naive and too trusting, an easy target for opportunist people; but can defend herself pretty well when found in disadvataged situations (just a bit, and majorly via distractions and quick escapes).
Extremely smart academically, she's basically a walking encyclopedia of nature and magic, but she's a total zero on fields like strategy or harder sciences. Due to the fact that she's always holed up in her room or her garden studying potions, she's very unathletic. She has pretty decent reflexes but lacks physical strenght and has basically no stamina at all.
She's also stubborn as a mule, and for better or worse, she doesn't know when to give up. She isn't the best at reading the room, so she may or may not be able to make things a tiny bit awkward sometimes. She likes the kind of jokes that are funny just because they're so bad, and puns.

Story
Youngest daughter of the Aster family, Holly was raised by her mother Sage, and her sister Petunia, paying no mind to the absence of her father who left the family a bit before she was born. Marvelled at her sister's and mother's magical powers since she was little, it didn't take long for Holly to tap into her own powers. She demonstrated a high affinity with nature and healing from a very young age, and so that was the path that she chose in her magic journey, making Sage and Petunia extremely proud with her achievements.
When she was 12 years old, the people from her village found out her mother was a witch, capturing the whole family to burn them at the stake. While prisioners, the three tried to ideate an escape plan, however Sage acted on her own to save her children, resulting in them having to witness her mother being burned alive while they made their escape.
Holly fled the village alongside Petunia and remade their lives the best they could, but a couple of years later rumors about a witch in the town started to spread and they decided to run away again in fear of history repeating itself. Petunia casted a spell on her to forget her and everything they went through, making Holly believe she was an only child whose mother passed away recently due to an illness, Petunia's reasoning being that Holly was a much kinder and quieter person and wouldn't draw the attention of villagers and wouldn't be found out as a witch.
And so Holly lived peacefully like that, ignorant of everything, and suddenly one day was summoned to a different world, in another dimension, where a king was searching for powerful people that could become heroes and save his kingdom. Holly, scared and, as far as she knew, away from the safety of her home for the first time ever, faced numerous adventures in this new world. It was in one of these adventures, one of these dangerous fights, that Petunia's spell was broken due to Holly's close encounter with a ravenous fire, bringing all her memories back.
Although she decided she would find her sister after she achieved her quest in that foreigner world, the sudden apparition of Petunia in the same world took her by surprise, but she wasn't able to reach out to her before chaos engulfed the kingdom and Petunia sent her back to their world. Confused and healing from her broken heart and newfound old memories, Holly set on to search for her sister, gaining glimpses of the Aster family and powers, and their father's identity.
And so she chases after Petunia, a desperate grasp to stop her.
