Powers	Magic! Any abilities she shows are thanks to her long family history with being wizards and witches, sorcerers and enchanters Wand Use - a short, 7.5 inch, Palm (resurrection) with a Dragon whisker core aids as a focus for spellcasting Spells - she has a book that she's dedicated to writing down her preferred casts, even though she doesn't really need a book any more to read from to cast these Doppelganger - up to three versions of herself appear as illusions, but they're very good illusions and it requires quite a bit of concentration to figure out which is the real thing, they can act in unison without her thinking about it, but also if she's dedicating concentration and is uninterrupted, they can all be doing slightly different things, this can only be cast if there's room for them to stand/sit, within 20 meters, and generally requires line of sight from her, can be broken if her concentration lapses or if she is hurt Ferula - a summoning spell that brings pieces of wood nearby (( ... May?)) to her hand, normally she uses this for pencils and firewood, works up to 25 meters Hex Deflection - a charm to protect versus hexes that keep her safe from quick curses, this spell is almost always in place if she is nervous, and lasts for up to three hexes or curses, or one bad one before needing to be refreshed Pack - to pack things into tight spaces (luggage, closets), handy that she doesn't need a locker, she can use this to locate things in a purse or bag, pull out exactly one item from a packed closet, and place things into other people's pockets if needed (she's really good at passing notes without teachers spotting it!) Wall Crawling - can scale any surface and is very difficult to pull off of things when they cling, and can also stick things to walls, so don't lean against a flat surface if you're bothering her, you won't be able to leave it for a while
Clusters	Wizard Adept +4 Mica benefits from having a large family and a long history with magic, and her family's ties with numerous others in Wonder and Crescent mean she was never lacking for information or tutoring; it is thanks to those connections as well that Mica became she/her
Skills	Multitask +3 Mica's concentration is quite hard to break, and she dedicates a good amount of time to practicing her doppelganger spells; she is ambidextrous and can use a wand or pen in either hand to equal success Substance Appraisal +3 Since her powers work very well on specific substances and surfaces, mainly wood, so she easily recognizes wood and trees, metals, and other non-synthetic products. Of good use for her alchemy and exploration abilities, since she can cling or attract best to them Musical Talent +3 though not her primary focus, she enjoys doing different tasks and keeping her hands occupied; she does prefer woodwinds, but is good enough with her French Horn to get her a great role on the marching band Real World Tetris +3 With that magical ability to pack comes a brilliant three-d shape recognition and distance estimation skill; even without the spell, Mica can assemble a jenga stack and put a large number of groceries in the freezer with millimeters to spare
Knacks	Always Smells Lovely +3 Without even a hint of perfume or lip gloss, Mica provokes a smile and sigh; she has been learning how to use this to her advantage, though it might also be aided by magic if she works it right Fashion Forward +1 even before going through her transition she always knew just what accessories to pair and what colors went best together

Parents?	alive in Wonder (divorced) Mother is a professional wand maker; Father has a magical shop where quite a few kids find toys, trinkets, cursed items, or- wait, no those certainly aren't where kids can reach them!
Siblings?	Two younger siblings, who live with their mom, while Mica still resides (when in Wonder) with dad

She considers herself lucky that her parents are divorced, which on one hand sounds a bit callous, but on the other, her mother had a meltdown when her 'son' announced her proper pronouns. They are still having a bit of a legal fight to allow the other siblings to move in with their father and sister. Having spent three years in Wonder's high school, her dad sent her to Crescent while they hashed it all out in Wonder.

To keep her mind off of that, Mica has dedicated herself to her studies at Carramba. Her senior year would be reasonably easy given half her classes were ones that she already knew by heart. She let others in the marching band convince her to join their Halloween antics. And, like Ken, she was pretty convinced that the trick or treating was far better in this mundane city than their magical home town. It would be her last proper Halloween, probably anyway... She was nearly 18, but then again, she'd matured into a pretty young woman and knew folks still dumped candy by the handful into bags for them. A touch cynical, sure, but...

Since she smelled lovely and looked like a treat already, she took to heart her favorite Halloween candy: Candy Corn! and with a little help from Kala's family they hooked her up with some gorgeous material. She was told that she'd be able to pull off the outfit even outside of Halloween, because... adorbs? As they finished up her outfit and put touches onto their own, Mica started to really enjoy it, spinning a little, giggling.

The trip to the boardwalk was positively wonderful, and no fewer than three passing guys (two of them from Carramba, and the third probably an older brother of one of them) offered to buy her a soda or throw a few baseballs to win stuffed toys. She politely declined, but was left with a broad smile on her full lips. They set up for their trip into town, and she was glad that her boots were made for walkin' because wow this place was so much more sprawling, and densely populated, than Wonder! Though it wasn't flat, it was certainly not the complicated maze of woodland and ponds, rock outcrops and oh-yeah-there's-a-town of Wonder...

May kept laughing her sheep-like giggle every time Mica would wave her over. They could do a whole performance thing for a line of kids while waiting for the 'best' houses to give out their goodies. The shifting magical tree-sheep girl produced leaves and even some blossoms from her hands and hair, and May had them sweep through the air over the little kids' heads, delighting them.

"This is going to be such a nice haul," Mica looked into her candy bag, it matched her skirt though it probably wouldn't fit as much as May's... And absolutely Mica was going to be deep-diving into that massive bag of candy if she ran out. "What a great way to end my trick or treating days..."

"Pff, you'll be able to cash in for treats for years Mica, stop kidding yourself," Kala chuckled, "by the time I'm graduated people will be handing me rolls of pennies and floor candy."

They laughed together at the thought - at least two of the stodgy neighbors in this area grumbled about all the kids coming in from everywhere how was he gonna cash in these pennies now? Although... Ken suggested that they all take closer looks at those coins, because given how ancient that stoat kin was, he might have given out collectables!

It was only a little after sunset, they took their first break.

** continued in story!**

(from first hatching)

Before they could try to work out their plan, some of the lights decided to come to them. Four of the smaller wisps danced around them in the light and soon settled on their bonds. 

"I like you." an earth wisp called Ruyin told Mica Fiddlewood while he perched on her shoulder and refused to budge afterwards.

It would actually be a bit of time before Mica was able to attend a larger-dragon hatching, unlike all the others who had paired up with their full-sized dragons during the same event all their little pets came from. They all remained with her, of course, because learning how to deal with both dragons and wisps ... and magic, and responsibilities... yeah that was exhausting work, but everyone loved it.

(From hatching)

Several of the eggs bulged and one cracked softly, though only Shivay could see its contents until the rest of the egg fell away. She nudged with her wing tip, shaking loose some of the shell but inadvertently covering part of the little hatchling in the soft sand around them. Shortly, though, the dragonet stood higher and took a deep breath, sneezed away the sand, and shook herself off firmly.
People nearby couldn't really tell... was this a dragon, or had a bucket of paint spilled? Mottled shiny black, obsidian like her parents, but there was so much more to it... all around her face, limbs, body, and tail, was brilliant pink, someone from Lantessama cried out 'rhodonite', whatever that was? An amazing mixture of dark and pale grey, contrasting like that everywhere but her black wings.
She wobbled toward the edge of the piled sand, as another of the eggs began to fully crack open. She seemed willing to entertain looking at each and every being there, be they dragon, elf, furry, or human. But finally she sniffed at the air near Mica Fiddlewood and slid her head under the Carramba student's hand.
" You smell so good, but I won't eat you. I am very hungry though..." She introduced herself as Tashiré, and huddled closer to her new bond once that name had been spoken aloud.
"I'll make sure to get you the right food, my little love," Mica said, happily. She looked to her friends, all wearing some degree of their Halloween costumes since they'd only had a little extra clothing with them when they arrived. They were cheering, but not just for her!
