Basic Information

Name: Zillah Bellerose
Nicknames/Titles: Zilly, Zilly Willy, Mistress Zillah
Gender: Female
Age: 20 Years
Date of Birth/Zodiac Sign: April 30th (Taurus)
Profession: Witch

Personality: Generally sarcastic and irritable on the outset, but also surprisingly nice, friendly, and respectful; particularly towards those she's close to. Heavily aspiring towards her profession and very dedicated to her goals, almost to a fault at times. Also tends to go into mood-swings and is a 'tad' possessive.

Likes: Her Grandmother, The Coven of Starfall, fashion, sewing, wine-brewing, experimenting with spells, hexes, and curses, Enchanting, The Dark Arts (prefers using Umbramancy), Darkness, cute boys, Bondage, Transformation, (particularly on other people), nature, her caravan, roses, evening hours, the night sky, and Familiars.
Dislikes: The Aries Knight (specifically Achille), most weapons, laborious work, cooking (unless it's desserts like pie or cake), seeing 'most' people suffer, friends and family dying, being left alone in the world, people who insult her, getting captured and put into Bondage herself, and being defeated.

Backstory: Born to a family of vineyard farmers and tailors in the town of Rosewich, the young Vixen known at the time as Zillah Couture spent her early childhood being raised by her parents and being taught their trades. Both absolutely adored their young daughter and wished nothing more than to raise her with much love and happiness until she grew into a fine woman. That dream would not come to pass, unfortunately, as a mysterious fire burned down the farm Zillah called home...and her loving parents along with it. Racked with sorrow and guilt from being the only person who survived, the young Anthro Vixen spent the next few days wandering about in the wilderness in hopes of dying to the elements. That was until she was found by her Grandmother: the infamous Cornelia Bellerose. After finding out what had happened, the old witch promised to take in the girl and raise her in her parent's place.

Adopting her Grandmother's family name of Bellerose from than onward, Zillah soon began her training in The Dark Arts alongside her equally doting Matron Witch. Despite some of the dark subject matter she was exposed to, Zillah still kept her friendly and kindhearted nature; even going as far as secretly befriending and saving a young Anthro Lamb boy whom Cornelia recently kidnapped. That would later prove to be a fatal mistake on her part, as it lead to the Aries Knight attacking her cabin in the woods and arresting her beloved Grandmother; whom was tried and burned at the stake afterwards.

Now, with most of her family gone, Zillah vowed vengeance upon the Aries Knight for his actions and chooses to haunt his every step until she gets that wish! Though, this Knight of The Ram may be more 'close' to her than she thinks...!

Trivia and Extras

• Zillah was originally gonna make her debut in A Simple September Day for an Aries, but I had to scrap the idea I had for her due to time constraints and instead remake it into the continuation that is An Encounter at Esdean Channel.
• The etymology behind Zillah Bellerose's name is one I had a lot of fun making. First off, the name Zillah is Biblical in origin and means 'shade' in Hebrew. Secondly, her two surnames of Bellerose and Couture are both French in origin, translating to 'beautiful rose' and 'tailor' respectively. These all tie into the character I want to make her into; a 'beautiful, but shaded rose', if you will.
• In the world of Zodiac Knights, practicing The Dark Arts without proper permission from local bodies of government and/or officials of magic is strictly prohibited and illegal. Females whom are caught doing so are labeled Witches and, if caught, are punished depending on how 'ethical' or 'severe' their preferred spells were. Luckily, with what she's sticks to, the biggest charge Zillah can get if caught is a couple months in the nearest gaol.
• The relationship I'm creating between Zillah and Aries has been partially inspired by two other couples from two different videogame series: Sly Cooper and Carmelita Fox from the Sly Cooper games, and Alva the Wayfarer and Zullie the Witch from the Soulsborne games (specifically Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III).
