Arrow Millicent Gwydion

Arrow, nicknamed Airi, also known as The Archer of the Night is a character in The Enchantress Quartet and The Millicent Life role play (Found on Brick Storm Wikia.) She is the last biological child of Serena and Derek Millicent. She was thought to be the next Enchantress, because she and her mother look so much alike, but a few blood tests disproved this. Arrow's name comes from her grandfather, Robin Hood, who has the honor of naming her. She, her first cousin Robin II, her grandfather and uncle, Roland, whom the the four share a passionate love of archery.

Childhood
Arrow Olivia Millicent was born to Serena and Derek Millicent on October 25th, 2002, four years and four days after older sister, Delilah. Her birth came with a lot of anxiety, since her older sister Bella, came early. But, she was born healthy with zero complications. Her grandfather decided to name her Arrow because she "came out fast, like a shooting arrow". in addition to that, he also hoped to teach her archery.

Like her sisters, she was put into normal kindergarten when she was eligible, but there were problems with that though. Arrow really enjoyed going outside for recess an helping with the school garden than paying attention in her classes, this fascination with the outdoors made her more academically behind than her peers. When Derek went in for a parent-teacher conference, her teacher told him about it, which made her parents alarmed. They decided to pull her out and started up a new system with teaching her outdoors, which helped her a lot in the long run.

One day, when she was about seven, she was messing around with her grandfather and great-aunt Snow White and the let her shoot an arrow just for fun. The two then turned away for only a moment, and she shot the arrow and made it into the bullseye. Robin reported the feat to his eldest daughter, which shocked Serena. The next day, she had Arrow shoot in their backyard and was amazed with the results and knew that there was potential there. Serena immediately had her father start teaching her daughter the ropes of archery.

The day after Arrow turned thirteen, something was up: Her hair started lighting to a honey-brown shade with small bits of blonde, her magic began coming in quickly and it was quite powerful and her eyes began showing signs of The Carcassis Morph. To her mother, Regina and Evangeline, this was extremely suspicious and a sign of her future, but to the rest of her family, this was extremely alarming. In Arrow’s mind, she was panicking and having anxiety attacks because she knew that she would be following in her mother’s footsteps. In her mother’s mind, this was both relaxing and alarming as well, so she began throwing her self into a pit of tests, magic-teaching books and coffee.

When her seventh grade year came to an end, she was pulled out a week early and put through a couple of blood and magic tests, which took a toll on both her and her mother’s physical health: Arrow’s skin became pale, Serena’s eyes and cheeks began sinking in and they both weren’t eating or sleeping properly. The anxiety and stress was really getting to the both of them, which both Jolie and Derek noticed. The two forced the other pair to eat, sleep and relax for the next day, which saved both of them. When the blood and magic tests came back, they revealed that while Arrow did have magic of her own, she was not the Enchantress, which was a big wave of relief for both her and Serena.

Once she reached high school, she became pretty rebellious, but she was still very friendly and approachable at the same time. At that time, there was a lot going on at the time: Her sister Delilah was going through her own rough and rebellious stage, her aunt and father were constantly fighting about things from the past and her mother was trying to stop a war between the fairies and the elves. During this period, she and Delilah would often sneak out of the house and go to parties that were hosted at bars and Delilah would drink, but she would not. They would often sneak back in during the wee hours of the morning, when no one was up and their mother was out.

To her classmates, she never seemed to be at school and it was the same way for her sisters. Whenever the Millicent girls would actually attend school, it was a rare occurrence because they would be traveling with their parents to various kingdoms throughout The United Realms for various reasons: Treaties, a birth of a noble child, an extremely important conference or celebrations such as an end of a war. These travels also influenced both her and Delilah's party-girl lifestyles, which often went undetected by their parents, who thought Delilah's hangovers were caused by food poisoning.

Appearance
Growing up, she couldn't go a day without her appearance being compared to her mother's. The situation was similar to her older sister, Angelica, who's appearance was often compared to their father's. Unlike Angelica, who now takes it as a compliment, Arrow is slightly annoyed with it, because she has spent her entire life building up her own identity, only for it to be destroyed with one comment.

Arrow has her mother and grandmother's long, thick dark hair. But unlike her mother she does not have platinum blonde streaks or the length that Serena has. Her hair is also slightly wavier than Regina's hair. Arrow says that she does not have the styling abilities that her mother or sister, Angelica, both possess, so her hair is either down or in a ponytail. If the family has a ball to go to, she usually has her mother style it. She wants to dye it sometime, but hasn't found the time.

She has also inherited her mother's brilliant green eyes, but Arrow has a little bit of brown in hers, so they are more hazel than green. Arrow is the only biological daughter to inherit one of her mother's rare eye conditions (Arrow has The Carcassis Morph, which means that her eye color gets darker when she is mad.) Arrow's skin tone is a lot paler than the rest of her family which makes finding makeup hard, but Arrow does not like makeup that much, so she doesn't mind.

Arrow is the same height as her sister, Angelica (They're both 5'6".) Arrow is a lot skinnier than many women in her family, which used to make her self-conscious, but now accepts that part of her. Arrow wishes that she grew just a little bit more, but only two to three inches.

Her clothes are normally pretty casual, but to spice things up, she adds loud prints, chunky heels or funky jewelry. Her evening dresses are also pretty casual, but they often have an element of surprise to them as well. For shoes, she tends to wear a lot of sneakers and boots and rarely heels. Arrow does not like heels because she tends to trip in them, especially if she has a long dress on as well. If she does have to wear a dress, she typically wears boots or shorter heels. The only jewelry she wears are some silver arrow-shaped earring she got from her grandparents for her sixteenth birthday and a silver chain with a heart-shaped ruby that she stole from Serena's old jewelry box, which she typically wears under clothing to keep it hidden.

Personality
Arrow is often described as the typical younger sister: Fiery and desperate for the attention that she so desires. All her effort normally goes to waste because it almost never gets the attention from her mother she so needs and desires. But as her older sisters have moved out of the house, she is beginning to get the attention that she has wanted all her life.

Just like her mother, she has a fiery temper that really shines through when she's having a rough day. But unlike her mother, who snaps at the tiniest things that are most of the time, irrational. Arrow's anger is saved for larger, more serious things, such as when Caroline ran away to The Netherlands and came back with Stanley or when she thought that her sister, Delilah, had become pregnant. Luckily, the duo has a connection which helps them more easily detect when one of them is going to get furious. But, when neither of them can manage to control their tempers, the Millicent Manor is a very unpleasant place to be and multiple neighbors have reported hearing one of both of them screaming almost all day and night.

During high school, she started going through a rebel phase like her sister, Delilah. While her bout of rebellion was a lot less serious than her sister's, it was still pretty bad and she would often not care about important things. When her grades started slipping, her father and aunt Jolie started getting involved with both her and Delilah to get them back on the right path and all this went undetected by Serena, who was having many mental breakdowns everyday, so Derek and Jolie didn't want to add to the stress. She finally got her grades back up after a couple of months and was allowed to move up to the next grade.

While she was rebellious and a little bit scene, she actually was a decent person to hang out with. Her friends at the time described her as: "A girl who knew what the right path was, but she had so much going on, that the path began becoming less and less clear. Plus, with that mother of hers, she was under a lot more pressure than we were." Arrow often went to study groups before her father and aunt got involved and often asked questions about things she didn't understand and acted docile to the other members.

Arrow also has a tendency to have minor anxiety attacks. She first noticed them when her mother was testing her to see if she was the next Enchantress. As mentioned before, these tests were very extreme and took a toll on her after a while, which made the anxiety build up. But the anxiety actually started much, much earlier in life and it was the same cause: Serena. Growing up, Arrow and her sisters were under a lot of pressure from their mother, who had grown up in a demanding household herself with loads of pressure to act perfect 24/7, and that unfortunately did translate into her own parenting and it hit Arrow the hardest. Luckily, she received counseling from Monica and is starting the slow process of healing.

Magical
Like the sisters that came before her, Arrow has magic. But of course, it is no where near as powerful, deadly or dangerous as their mother's is. When it come to her powers, Arrow represents the element of Fire, because she inherited the Fire element in her magic.


 * Enhanced Sensory (This means her senses are stronger than normal.)
 * Invisibility (Her magic is not enough to use this power, and she often can’t focus enough to turn her entire body invisible.)
 * Pyrokinesis
 * Fire Throwing
 * Fireball Creation
 * Flame Teleportation

Non-Magical
It comes as no surprise that Arrow is a talented archer. Her grandfather saw the potential in her that one day when she picked up his bow and shot the arrow and he is glad that he taught her this skill. According to Serena, she was almost named Artemis or Diana, but everyone agreed that they liked the name Arrow the best. When they first started teaching her to shoot, her hands would often shake and she would miss the target, but she kept persevering and is now at world class level. If she did not have the prestigious title of The Archer of the Night, she says that she could see herself doing archery for a living.

Another one of Arrow’s loves that also intersects with archery is hunting. Her great-aunt Snow White, first cousin Robin II and uncle Roland taught this to her. They taugh her how to find where the lungs or heart of the animal was in order to aim perfectly. They also taught her specific animal footprints and how to clean off the meat from any possible toxins that may be lingering on it. Every Thanksgiving in the Mills family, there is one big hunt to find the legendary Blue Moon Turkey, which Arrow has taken participation in since she was thirteen. Out of the four years she has done it, they’ve only been able to catch the bird twice.
