Bio:
A life lived sheltered within the confines of a cult of religious extremists can breed many things, but the product of Saffrin Bower was an unwelcome surprise to those that were supposed to love her. When her father Marius Bower was very young he abandoned his affluent family and turned to the promise of eternal bliss and salvation that The Church of Perpetual Bliss enticed to him. He had come to feel that the magical abilities bred in his bloodline were the marks of evil on his brethren and all ties were cut off completely. He married a good woman of the faith and served his church faithfully, raising his two daughters to do so as well. Their mother died from ammonia when Saffrin was just a toddler and her father had never remarried. The church would mold the young girls in its image, training them to be virtuous and dedicated to the word of a one true God rather than the multitude of deities that were more commonly worshiped by the "heathens" in the outside world. They lived within the confines of a small monastery, largely cut off from the rest of a society that they were taught was corrupt and choked with evil. Saffrin naturally feared this world and had little interest in being a part of it. She was to suffer through the mortal coil and be good and faithful so that she could find everlasting happiness in Heaven. That was her purpose. As puberty evolved the girls physical body and carved sinful curves upon her, a more dangerous evil began to fester inside of her. The tainted blood carried by her father was having an effect on her that it had not bestowed on him or his eldest daughter. Saffrin began to influence people and things around her without really meaning to. One day she accidentally crushed a butterfly that had landed in her hand while playing in the gardens. She started to cry and wished that she hadn't killed the thing, and when she looked up she saw it flying away. Then she turned around to find that the rose bush behind her which moments ago had been colorful and filled with healthy flowers was now withered and dead. Similar things continued to happen, and every time she healed one thing, another would sicken or die. Sometimes it was a plant ... sometimes a small animal. She had also started to inflict sickness like coughing fits and muscle cramps on people when she was upset with. She could not control any of it. This was a wickedness within her that grew stronger with the next years to follow. Soon she became recluse ... often refusing to leave her living quarters for the fear of what she might do. Her attempts to hide such an evil gift were fierce, but alas she could not hide it forever. One afternoon her sister Olive fell while climbing a tree and broke her neck. She was dying ... then Saffrin touched her and while the other children in the yard watched Olive glowed and her neck straightened. She was okay ... but the tree she fell from had turned brittle and black. Her father was the first to admit out loud to the congregation that his beautiful young daughter had developed abilities that were more than mundane ... abilities that he had grown up subjected to. Her father was also the one that locked the doors to the monastery behind his teenager when she was cast out from its fold.
Alone and disgusted by herself Saffrin has followed what little knowledge she had of her father's family to the city of Vantorta in the hopes of learning something more about what she is becoming. She needed to find out if she could control this power within her ... and seek out where she can now belong in this world.
