Personality:

Davina Claire is a witch, and a very powerful one. When she was sixteen she was chosen as a sacrifice but was not told the full details, fearing death, she got out of her coven and learned to scorn witches. Marcel, a vampire, saved her and took her in as his adopted daughter. She lived alone under his watch, secluded, which lead to her becoming increasingly cynical at her inability to leave without the risk of being murdered by her coven. On her own she used her powers she'd gained from the unfinished harvest ritual to help Marcel run the city.

As she became aware that Marcel was using her for her power, she began to grow to take care of herself, and become more independent. She began to take risks, some she would both hate and grow from, like being the cause of her first love's death at the hands of Klaus Mikaelson.

After the sacrifice to finish the Harvest Ritual and to save New Orleans, she was unable to use her powers due to the ancestors berating her. She knew she had hurt many with her powers on accident, this led her to have a depressed period where she was frustrated with both herself and her magic - it certainly had a lasting effect.

Her need to feel in control caused her to embrace her magic even after such a horrible thing happened to her at the hands of her coven. Her magic is a double-edged sword, she can protect herself but also hurt the ones she loves, and that makes her have a complicated relationship with magic. She's mostly self taught and that makes her question herself and her powers.

Because of her coven's betrayal, loyalty is big to her. She doesn't believe in more than one or two chances for a person. Her whole life she was lied to and manipulated by witches and vampires alike. So she takes trust and betrayal very seriously. If she feels her trust is breached, she lashes out at those rather violently.

The most dangerous part of her personality is she is not afraid to get revenge, and often plots out ways to try to make Klaus suffer for what he's done. This pairs with her temper that can turn into rage. Her shady morals on when to use violence and seek revenge makes her a strong adversary. Despite her vengeance seeking nature Davina isn't a bad person, she simply has her own views on how people should behave in life.

But the one thing Davina has in spades is bravery. From finally offering herself as sacrifice and facing her coven's ancestors, to challenging the Mikaelsons, she never backs down. If anything, she has the opposite reaction to scare tactics: she simply tries harder to do what she wants. She's faced witches, vampires, werewolves, and hybrids, and only once buckled under fear - when her coven lied to her and tried to slit her throat.


Subconscious themes & fears:

x The Harvest Ritual.
x Her power will be her undoing.
x She'll hurt those she loves.
x She'll become like Klaus, a hateful ugly monster.
x Others simply want to use her.
x She has no place among witches, vampires or humans.
x The Ancestors

Powers:

Davina has all the abilities of a typical witch, with immense strength from being a harvest girl. She's even shown to create her own spells - something typically only elder witches can do - surprising even Kol.

Spell Creation

Nerf suggestions: affecting monsters directly with her magic drains her and is increasingly hard to do. Her magic will be iffy, sometimes working and sometimes not, and sometimes just using more magic than it should so that it drains her. Telekinesis, pyrokinesis, aerokinesis, geokinesis, hydrokinesis will all be nerfed like the example on the power adjustment page for telekinesis. Using her powers on/around the monsters drains her severely, leading to migraines, bloody noses, in extreme cases bleeding from eyes or ears, and ultimately loss of consciousness. If she strains her magic, she will be less likely to be able to use them and also be fatigued for a day or two.

Wish List:
