TELL ME ABOUT SASKIA IVE GONE TO LONG LETTING THAT FIRE CHARACTER DESIGN GO UNAPPRICATED

AAAAH IM GLAD YOU LIKE THE DESIGN!! BUT she and Seasaidh desperately need a rework, here’s a little doodle of how that might look for Kia -

My baby. Lomve her. ANYWAYS SOME STUFF ABOUT HER!

Saskia is the biological child of Johanna and Kaisa, born when Hilda is around 15 probably. How is she their biological child? Magic!

As a magical contruct, magic comes naturally to Saskia. There was probably a lot of mishaps as a baby with her being unable to control said magic and it coming out in chaotic ways, but as a teenager she’s got most of her natural ability under control and it only comes out when she’s experiencing extreme emotions. Her natural magic is fairly basic, but she could be a very successful witch if she put her mind to it given her natural advantage. Trouble is…she doesn’t, she’s not interested in magic, or anything to do with adventure really

Saskia is sort of the black sheep of The Pearson family, i.e. she’s the ‘normal’ one. She doesn’t crave adventure in the great wide somewhere or powerful magic beyond her reach, she just wants a normal life. She’s a teenager, she finds the notoriety her family has gained due to their adventures more embarrassing than anything else

She’s got kind of a “ugh, MUM you’re so embarrassing!” vibe and is pretty closed off, but deep down she loves her family more than anything

It’s Kaisa’s first time as a parent, and as someone who still feels as if she failed at being a Witch she’s determined to ensure Saskia never feels that way. Plus, magic and Witchcraft is part of her culture and she wants to share it with her daughter - this results in her pushing her to learn magic even though Saskia doesn’t really want to, and drives a wedge between them for a bit. They work through it eventually though, and as Saskia gets older she comes to appreciate her weird family and the natural magic within her that she once tried to hide. She never becomes studying Witch or anything, but overtime she and Kaisa find common ground in participating in the less ‘grind to become the most powerful witch possible’ aspects of Witchcraft

As for what she does become, she’s a writer! I like to give every Pearson family member a creative talent that they shine in (Johanna is ofc a Graphic Designer, Hilda canonically keeps a sketchbook but I also headcanon that she grows up to be a wildlife photographer, and Lauren is a painter!), and Saskia’s is writing. Her main avenue is poetry, but she enjoys writing any genre of fiction. She’s a massive bookworm as well

By the time she and her sister are hitting their teen years, Lauren has probably moved out, and whilst Hilda might not have she definitely would be spending a lot of time away adventuring (though they both come back home frequently, Lauren for one lives like 5 minutes away). With her older sisters not living at home, Saskia considers herself the eldest sibling and the responsible one in the house, and doesn’t like being reminded that she isn’t. She probably tells people at school she’s the oldest too, half in attempt to make sure they don’t figure out who her family are

She’s a grumpy baby but she really does love her family and she’s my baby and I love her a lot
