Malibu - The Witch

Name: Malibu

Age: 17

Malibu is the youngest sibling of James and Annadetta and was raised by her sister after both her parents died. She is considerably younger than her older siblings and therefore can't remember her mother. Shy and nervous, Malibu is often overshadowed by her old sister and keeps to herself most of the time. She looks up to Annadetta for raising her and although her brother had little input in her life she has always admired his confidence and appreciated his extravagant gifts.

When James approached both his sisters with the proposition of becoming guardians Annadetta accepted on behalf of both herself and Malibu. Although she got on well with Serenity and was slightly scared by her brother's new form, she did what she was told by her sister who had always had her best interests in mind.
Whilst Annadetta's transformation into a master huntress was successful, Malibu found it harder to harness the power gifted to her. She was clumsy with her sorcery and had a lot of trouble controlling it. It wasn't until she was killed by Serenity that her true potential was realised; as Malibu died her power refused to and took control of her body and mind, transforming her from a novice sorceress into a skilled adversary.



Malibu was particularly hard to get right. She is based on a character i created in a game once and although i wanted her to look similar, i also wanted the character to have her own identity. Colour was especially hard to decide on since in my mind i imagined her to be wearing black and white, but when i tested that it looked very bland. I'm glad i went with purple as it's a much more 'magical' looking colour which suits this character perfectly.
