A bit scatterbrained after her enchantment, a common side effect.

Ophelia is shy and sweet, but can be excitable and outgoing when in the right company. She is naive and a hopeless romantic, two traits that leave her open to Oleander's manipulations. Later on, she is ruthless and volatile, yet still loving and sweet, and very determined. She pours her heart into everything she does, from her garden to her quest to get revenge on Oleander, and is quick to befriend the lonely and give them company. Once she gains her magic, it ties itself heavily to her emotions, which she has difficulty managing due to her abuse at Oleander's hands and her fear of being separated from her sisters forever.

Playing the flute, tree climbing, gardening

To stay alive with her adopted sisters

Tree climbing, teaching the kids at her orphanage, planting flowers and foods to sell at the market.

Naive, impulsive, shy, easily distracted. Scatterbrained, emotionally volatile. Once she gains her magic, she has difficulty controlling it and it often flares up when she's feeling strong emotions.

None initially, but after the whole thing with Oleander happens, she's very wary around Fae

Gains the ability to control and create fire.

She prefers to diffuse conflict verbally. Esther later gives her a dagger with the phrase "Bound No More" carved on the blade

Sells the growth from her garden at the Vessa Market in Spero every few weeks.

Adopted into the Carinter family, Ophelia and her two older sisters (Giana and Vivian, in that order) are orphaned when a plague sweeps through Vessa, their hometown in Spero. The three of them are taken in by Gertrude Denn, who gives them food and shelter in exchange for work. Ophelia takes up gardening, both to provide food for Gertrude and to sell the excess (and flowers) at the marker. She soon befriends and begins to fall for fellow orphan Lucas Granteir.
She catches Oleander's eye during one trip to the market, and he kidnaps her shortly after, taking her to the Court of Darkness.

Fairly low, she can read and write, but lacks knowledge of science, mathematics, etc.
