Name: Katie Mae - nickname Kate Age: 12 Appearance: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v295/darkestbeauty/402668_340902695934188_1151968269_n_zpsg3xuqdzl.jpg[/IMG] Personality: Kate has always been the "odd man out" despite her best efforts. She's a straight A student when she's not even trying, a tom boy, and much too smart for her own good. Being the youngest child of 5, and only 3 years older than her niece and 4 years older than her nephew, she was raised somewhat like the middle child of seven... her parents never have time for her and her siblings pick on her incessantly. As a result, despite Kate's social interests and demeanor, she's become more and more isolated as she got older, especially once she got into middle school. She wears trench coats and carries a small bag of bones hanging from her belt loop most days. Kids avoid her, and she's started to prefer it that way to the cruel teasing she gets when she tries to make friends. The adults around her have a tendency to say "well that's just Kate" and brush off anything strange or unusual on the basis that her grades are always perfect. Kate is very much aware of her aloneness and how much she stands out, but even when she tries her hardest... there is no fitting in. View of the darkness: A classmate introduced Kate to witchcraft in sixth grade. Kate was always weary of the darkness before... it gave her a sick feeling that something was always watching her. She'd run to get home before the sun set every night, and she kept a light on next to her bed always. Ever since she starting playing with spells and rituals, that feeling of unease around the darkness only got worse. She swore she always saw the same figures lurking in her closet or outside her window, but she'd never tell anyone because that was crazy and adults would just tell her she's being childish.
