Though her mind is sharp she has not spoken since she was a young girl. Her silence is a mystery, as well as her magic - the household objects that seem to move at her command, the bad luck that visits those who do her ill.

Animals are drawn to her, electricity shorts out when she's near, and strangest of all, she sees a new vision.
