Warning: Spoliers Ahead

Appearance

The Fairy Priestess Arin, like all members of her species, appears as a coalescing speck of light that constantly shifts colour, though she can assume the appearance of any living mortal with whom she has been in contact. She cannot assume the form of a deceased person.

Powers and Abilities

As the most senior member of her kind, Arin possesses great magical abilities, many of which have not yet been observed by the other characters. In her natural form, she has the ability to fly, as well as teleport, anywhere she pleases. She also has the ability to shapeshift into other living beings in order to communicate in their language, and give the illusion of corporeal form. Like all fairies she has no true physical form.

Fictional Character Biography

The Fairy Priestess Arin was, at one time, the most senior member in a sacred order of Fairy Priestesses. She and her sisters are directly responsible for creating the curse that locked Mandrake Harcus in Black Hollow, and indirectly responsible for the events that followed.

After learning that the wizard had infected her species with a virus in order to take revenge for what they had done, and becoming the sole survivor of her entire species, Arin retreated into hiding for centuries. She was aware of the events surrounding Jessica Bannerly and the wizard Mandrake's first attempt to break the curse, but the time had not yet come for her intervention.

When the wizard made his second attempt at freedom, using the neophyte werewolf Ciara as his stooge, Arin broke from her solitude in an attempt to warn the girl so that she may escape her inevitable fate. Unfortunately Ciara's transformation proceeded faster than anyone expected and she lured her boyfriend Justin into the wizard's trap, setting him free once and for all.

Arin returned to her solitude, hoping to devise a way of returning the sorcerer to captivity permanently.
