Epona

Background
Section of history
Epona comes from a well-to-do middle-class family in Grimsby, where she grew up surrounded by too many books and with few real friends. Her obsession with the supernatural began with Nightblade, a melodramatic vampire romance novel she discovered at age thirteen. Since then, she has read every vampire story she could find and joined online forums.

When she discovered that the Wiccan Club existed in St. Denis, she literally begged to be accepted. At first, Nemesis scoffed at her, but her enthusiasm and willingness to do anything to be accepted (something Nemesis greatly appreciated) earned her a place among them.

She also writes fanfiction, famous for her embarrassing stories about her classmates, especially her "alternate universe" romantic pairings of random boys from school. Occasionally, her stories include self-referential characters and unrealistic, perfect characters.

Trivia

Nepona is named after the Celtic goddess of horses (although she chose it because of the horse from Legend of Zelda).

Her favorite book, "Nightblade," is a parody of "Twilight" and those insufferable fans from the 2000s.

She's in love with "Doctor Who".

Like Nemesis and Minerva, Epona's surname comes from a real 16th-century witch.

Appearance
Epona looks more like a bookworm than a witch. She's short, red-haired, wears large glasses, and has braces that give her a slight lisp. She always wears her Wicca Club hoodie (with the hood up for an air of mystery) over her school uniform. Her green eyes light up when she talks about her favorite vampire book, Nightblade, which she's almost never without: a thick paperback with folded pages and hearts scribbled in the margins, that quotes dramatic lines at unexpected moments. Despite her efforts to imitate her darker, more brooding clubmates, she can't hide her childlike, enthusiastic energy. She stands out among the Wiccas for being the only one who looks like a bookworm.

Personality
Epona is naive, enthusiastic, and easily lost in fantasy. She believes everything Nemesis says, not out of gullibility, but because she wants it to be true. For her, being part of the Wicca Club is a dream come true, her passport to the supernatural world she's always read about. Her understanding of the occult is entirely flawed: she confuses Skyrim lore with real witchcraft, refers to ghosts as "draugr," and sometimes invokes "Death Eaters" as if they were a real deity. She often uses terms she doesn't understand, quoting fictional rituals as if they were real. Epona tries hard to appear aloof and mysterious, mimicking Nemesis's coolness and Minerva's silence, but her facade always crumbles. The moment someone mentions vampires, she transforms into an overflowing fanatic: squealing, gushing with praise, or rambling on about her theories.
