basics NAME: Abigail Lauren Murphy. NICKNAME The majority of the watch call her Abi. AGE AND DOB: 30. 1st September, 1989. CAREER: Lawyer. Mainly criminal though has done a number of things over the years. While technically Abigail serves the public you will find most, if not all, of her clients are Watchers charged with this or that or in need with help in a number of cases. Being a criminal lawyer has many, many uses as it not only helps when a Hunter or member of the Watch is caught up in that but gives her access to the police. CURRENT RESIDENCE: Lives with the Watch at the Sanctuary. MARTIAL STATUS: Single? widow? SEXUALITY: Heterosexual. HEIGHT: 5"6. EYE / HAIR COLOUR: Grey/Blue / Blonde. DISTINGUISHING MARKS: There are a good few scars over Abigail's body from the past 12 years. They tend to be hidden by clothing, Jared being the only one to know the majority of her scars and why she has them. She isn't ashamed but people tend to think the worst when they see a woman with as many scars as Abigail has. On the back of her neck she has runes for strength (Uruz), reliability/endurance (Eihwaz) and protection (Algiz). Each of the runes are spelled, enchantments woven into the ink.
supernatural RACE: Witch. ABILITIES INNATE ABILITY Simply put chaos is Abigail's innate ability, the ability which her parents bound, which they kept from her as they do with every generation of children in the Coven. Unlike many lines of witches the Belrithe's gifts don't seem to be connected to genetics in so much that certain gifts are not passed down and each witch has their own unique ability. While this isn't the way for all them the majority seem to gain their own abilities. Not that they know, of course.
Abigail's powers are connected to Chaos a variety of ways. First and foremost she can see, sense and 'read' chaos. Sometimes in the form of visions as she walks down the street, touches an object, passes a person with chaotic or generally negative thoughts or emotions. It's a kind of empathy when it comes to emotions; feeling fear, anger, pain, hurt anything which goes against the norm or spikes suddenly. Abigail has always chalked that up to ether, people subconsciously projecting. There's also a sort of connection to it, if she's around you enough she kind of subconsciously knows your wave length and tends to pay attention to it without even knowing it. Jared is one of those people, often just knowing when he is hurting or angry. Anna was another. Abigail believes it to be gut reactions, initiative thinking of a wife and a mother.
Then there are dreams. Abigail has had a few dreams over the years, but until she's unbound nothing to what she could have. Stark, very real dreams where it's like she's truly in the moment. Past, present, future, it would all be open to her. Which is good and bad; it leaves her emotionally vulnerable on many, many levels. This isn't Abigail just feeling a little bit of chaos she truly lives it whether is as the perpetrator or victim would depend on the chaos. She rides the emotion like she is the on one causing it or receiving it. This could mean for very, very bad dreams.
The best of her gifts would be the use of that chaotic energy which would be perfect in a fight. Drawing in the energy of the fight, that electricity which is alive during the rush of it she can transform it into other; a bigger hit in her spells, to push into her wounds to heal a touch faster and then, a twist on her healing, there is the ability to force this chaos, this dark and twisted energy through someone. What would it do? Hurt, a fucking lot, begin to rip them a part, hallucinations as the chaos piled on, their worst nightmare as they were subjected to the pure, unfiltered energy.
HEALING Abigail is very, very good at healing by 'pushing' herself into someone, transposing her spirit and force of will into them and to coaxing their body to re-heal by feeding it what it needs. In this respect she could do much the same to rip them apart piece by piece, she's just never truly realised it, give her time though.
WITCH: Like all of her family Abigail is able to use various means to create and work a spell. Herbs, objects, words, writing, etc. There are many variations and they family has a large spell catalogue, not that Abigail knows that as only the Matriarch of the family gets to see. Abigail is well versed in healing magic and is adapting ways to use it offensively. ETHER: Able to connect though only really do so to Watch members or family. Abigail's presence on the Ether is like winter days; soft blankets against your skin, a roaring fire and then the sweeping bitter wind of a freezing night. Her leading presence is that of warmth, a motherly softness which wraps around you but when she's angry? hurt? distressed? she's the bitter ice or the core of the fire. SKILLS: She's a good source of supernatural information for the Watch though her weaponry training is limited compared to the others, only having begun learning when she joined Jared in the watch. She has quite a good array of spells which can help though and her collection is ever growing, unlike her family she's thirsty for knowledge. Her caring despite everything she has been through, her unwillingness to give up even when she's faced with death. Abigail is a force to be reckoned with and she is stubborn to the end. LIMITATIONS: WEAPONRY TRAINING: Very little. Since joining Jared has trained her mostly. GROUP: The Watch; leader.
history FAMILY FATHER: David Murphy. MOTHER: Catherine Murphy. SIBLING(S): Rosamund Murphy.
