Personal Song: Boris the Spider - The Who
A demon witch who spends her time making and testing out all sorts of potions, poisons, and tinctures. She keeps her white hair tied back in a braid, hidden beneath her hood. Her brown eyes will start to glow when in the dark, and she's rarely seen outside without her broomstick and hat to shade her eyes. Her mind is not entirely sound, but she's passionate and extremely knowledgable in all the herbs and techniques used in ceating the most powerful elixers. Her voice is shaky and unsettling, and first impressions never make her seem very trustworthy.
Trivia
- There's a large obsidian stone fixed onto her broomstick, which produces a protective shield around her while she flies. If someone were to send an ill-meaning spell her way, the shield would deflect it. Anything that might sneak through the shield would just get absorbed by the obsidian.
- She frequently uses homemade flying ointment, which induces hallucinations. The ointment consists of many different types of poisonous plants, including a significant amount of deadly nightshade. (to which she has a stronger tolerance than humans)
- Her grimoire is extremely messy and disorganized. Pages are wrinkled or torn, things have been ripped out or taped back in, and the handwriting is completely illegible. Still, Acid is somehow always able to find what she's looking for in there.
- She owns a large cast-iron cauldron, but she uses it as a trash can. She makes all her potions and things in regular pots.

Character
Childhood
Lorem ipsum etc etc etc
Adulthood
Though a witch, Acid is not very religious, and laughs a little too hard when anyone accuses her of being a devil-worshipper. Seeing is believing for her. She has befriended ghosts in the past, and can manipulate earthly energies. Because of her beliefs and actions, she's generally considered a traditional witch. She worships no deities, and instead focuses on natural magic involving herbs, trees, and stones. She has several posters up in her home that portray moon cycles, planetary symbols and associations, runes, and her favorite potion recipes. (though she has all of them memorized) Her home is also a bit like that of a hoarder's. She mainly collects rugs and curtains, having them all overlap each other in her very dark house, but there are bottles, hanging herbs, and just garbage strewn about and stacked everywhere.
Acid used to have pyrokinesis, but lost the ability when her mental state became weaker. She's no longer able to maintain the amount of focus needed in order to cast a flame. Though disappointed, she doesn't really care anymore since it doesn't hinder her ability to brew elixers which is her true passion.
She uses her own potions very frequently, and drinks them often. She's always seen with a half-empty elixer bottle in her hand. If inquired, she simply says things like "I need something to keep me alert" or "This will help me remember something." She tests out all of her potions and tinctures before putting them up for sale, to make sure they're the best quality. This often means taste-testing the ones that are supposed to be drunk, and the ones that aren't, which can backfire on her with weird side effects.
She sells potions from her home in a marshy hut. Though the house is far off the beaten path, her business is successful and she gets a large amount of customers throughout the day. She uses many different types of herbs, barks, roots, leaves, berries, and flowers in her potions. Though she has a garden, she can only seem to keep really hearty plants alive. Most of the time she has to either wildcraft or order what she needs online. Luckily, most of the potion ingredients she commonly usees can be found near her home, though she hates having to go out and collect it.
Blood Lace
[ Childhood friend ]Though they've grown to be completely different people, they still spend time together and are friends. Acid is pretty gross and has made terrible decisions that harmed herself, but Blood Lace still hangs around and checks on her occassionally to make sure she's okay.
Chubby Son ("Big Boy")
[ Pet ]Acid's assistant pet. He's easily distracted and pure of heart, which makes him a bad assistant, but he's also very loyal and eager to help Acid on errands and collecting potion materials. He gets very sad when anyone yells at him.
