Born of the goddess of witchcraft whom holds many faces, so does her daughter... The only problem is which face is the true face?

Skills
Mystiokinesis
As a child of Hecate, she is able to cast spells and use magic by speaking certain words in Latin or by using runes of power. She is limited to what she has already learned in books.
Call of the haunted
Upon obtaining any piece of an animal’s remains, Allegra may summon their spirit back from the dead to aid her. The smaller the creature, the less energy it takes to summon them. During a pact, the animal's spirit becomes one with Allegra's sharing a bond that allows her to communicate with the animal and it takes form around its bodily remains.

Summary
Her father, Laurent, born and raised in the bayous of New Orleans, a young mortician that inherited the business from his father and he, his father and so forth and forthwith. Had no idea what would hit him.. until he laid eyes on the prettiest young thing sitting among a bustling crowd on the French Quarter. She told him her name was Helena and after telling him his future... It was fun little banter, she eventually told him that he'd the father of her child and that's when he knew he was head over heels with the blunt little thing. It was a romance that he felt would last forever, but it only lasted a few months.. and one day she up and went missing. He mourned her like he mourned a limb cut from his body. His witty, bold and beautiful Helena... 9 months, no words. Until one May morning, he woke up to small fingers curling in his wild dark hair. He set eyes on this little baby girl- a scroll wrapped around a black candle to her side and her swaddled in a purple moon embroidered blanket. Everything he needed to know was written there including the baby's name; Allegra.
Allegra aged into a graceful lady just before his eyes and her powers had developed rather young. Around the bayou, she would find little bones of creatures and collected them, speaking to them as if they could answer her. While everyone thought the child merely had created imaginary friends- her father knew better... he tried his best to hide her from eyes, had her homeschooled by her step-mother in their private chateau. (Among the years, Laurent had held out hope that he would see the love of his life once more, but eventually fell in love again before Allegra was 3.) Knowing this woman was not her biological mother, Alle eventually did ask her father about it. Sitting her down, he told that even though her mother had never spoken to her.. that she was loved fiercely and always protected. He told her about a camp and explained that soon, he would have to take her there because it would not be safe for her.. That he could not protect her.
Things seemed to happen in succession- Allegra’s powers began to develop further around the time of her 12th birthday and as a treat, her family took her to a travelling circus that had just come in town and that was the day her world flipped upside down. She was lured with the promise of a gift and found herself trapped in the ring with a frightful woman with fire for hair. With luck and the diversion of another member, she was able to kill the monster with her own bronze leg, but the tent was not unscathed. A huge fire broke out and Alle and her father both knew that she couldn't stay- she had been seen there and the mist had changed the preception of the people. They thought she had started the fire. They set off directly for New York before the speculation could start. At first, the girl was elated, she expected to see bright lights and bustling crowds and she did- Her father spent one last day with her and it was a day she would cherish years after. And finally he led her to a pasture with a hill atop. He sang to her as she strolled up and she returned the words until she could not hear him any longer and even then, she continued until she found herself at an archway with ‘Camp Half-blood’ etched on it. That very second around everyone who found her there, she was claimed with the image of 3 moons. 2 opposing cresents and a full one. The symbol of Hecate.
Camp Half-Blood
Life at camp for Allegra was strained... She clung to her 2 elder siblings for comfort and were very much the only parts of her life that she could handle. Being away from home and now stuck in came year long caused the girl to go near mute. To her chagrin, her brother and 2 other vaguely familiar campers were tasked to retrieve a golden axe that was blessed by Hermes. It failed. Her brother died right and she was forced to shroud him. She was devastated. Allegra made a mistake... One she would regret for the rest of her life and she's constantly reminded of it.
After her mistake, leaving camp was hard, but she was tasked with her own quest. A group of empousas made multiple boys disappear in a boarding school and with the help of two of her campmates, a son of Hephaestus and a son of Aphrodite, they succeeded and were able to find a fellow half-blood among the masses. Then on, she was a bit more outgoing, but never one to really claim the spotlight. Keeping to herself and quietly studying and well-oiling her craft during her days. She was able to retrieve her GED and started working on accreditation as she knew she would have to leave camp.
Allegra travelled home and was able to quietly live with her father thanks to the smells of the bayou coating her very well, but she knew this was a temporary fix, she'd have to find a permanent one before her family was put in danger. With all things, Alle sat and spoke to her mother for guidance on this. And for the first time, she answered. Before Allegra was the most beautiful woman whose features always changed the harder she stared at her. One moment a beautiful woman, another a motherly smile and then an old woman, but in her hand was a necklace. She offered it to Allegra and she took it without question, but before she could ask, her mother was gone and in her place was a pamphlet for Little Olympia...
Personality
Inquisitive | Witty| Modest | Generous | ForthComing
Allegra's core is deeply loyal and compassionate to people she has bonded with, she's been known to go the extra mile or jump an extra yard to help if she can and usually, she can. She has a serious eye for things, if it peaks her curiosity then you've got her attention without a second thought. Though, her curiosity can also cause her to drift off into thought or ramble endlessly if its on a subject she enjoys. When speaking, Allegra doesn't like to beat around a bush, she'll say what's on her mind and how it is whether or not it will hurt your feelings. That's not to say she's devoid of humor, however, she loves a good laugh and just because she deals with death everyday doesn't mean she has to be the walking dead!
Impulsive | Detached | Stubborn | Morbid| Tactless
While she fears that her words will not convey the correct message, that should not suggest she is fearful about her actions. If she sees that her action is the correct one, she will do it... sometimes without speaking to others about it. And while being forthcoming can be an admirable trait, that sadly could make her lack some serious tact and finesse. And while she will help anyone who gains her favor, it takes so much to gain it! She does not trust easily and she has more walls than a house around her. She gives off an air of intimidation and is often unapproachable to try and deter people from trying to speak to her. Thats when she leaves the house, she likes to seclude herself at home.
