(will color later + better picture)
Name
Evelyn/Elijah Leigh (her last name is unknown)
Rank
Matchstick
Original Power
Energy Drain: The ability to drain the energy of others by looking them in the eyes. She is able to store the energy and even souls within gem capsules which grow out of her shoulders. These gems slowly shrink and dissolve into her skin as the energy and soul energy is used up. When there are no gems on her shoulders, the case probably is she is extremely exhausted and needs more energy.
Minor Shadow Manipulation: She can turn into a shadow and traverse in silence with improved stealth and agility.
Power Gained After Joining The Cult:
Extensive Shadow Manipulation: She can turn into a shadow and traverse in silence with improved stealth and agility. However, the flames which waver by her candles can never fully dim, so they are still visible which doesn't give her full camouflage. She can also use these shadows as a weapon, converting it into some sort of physical energy and can be used as an offensive attack which can take on any form she wishes.
Mind Control: The Eye (as it is known by most who see it, though as Evie Leigh calls it 'Ralphie') also has stronger abilities and can extend his mind manipulation outside of Evelyn, though only to one other person/being at a time, and he also has to be in control of Evelyn for this to work. However, after her sudden change, it seems that Ralph isn't needed for such things to happen any longer as Evie is learning herself how to use this ability on her own. She cannot possess other members in the cult, but she can possess human beings and animals. This is an extremely taxing ability, and works up to an hour at best.
Weaknesses
Being interrupted when she's relaxing, being called a pothead among other slang terms, not being physically strong as most, insects, not getting her way, her being overemotional, not having enough food, not waking and baking,
Additional abilities/strengths
She has always possessed a great intuition/gut feeling, and she is usually rather agile and quick on her feet, not to mention, she also can jump very high.
Birthday
February 25th
Age/How Old You Appear
15
When You Joined The Cult
2 years prior
Height
5'3" ft
Skin Color
Light blue
Race
Candle Demon
Gender
Gender fluid. This is something easily attained by her as well since her body is now partially made of wax, she can mold her body slightly to change certain aspects of her body. Not to mention, her hair grows back at such quick rates, it doesn't take much to cut it.
Weight
130 lbs (She might way a bit more than she appears because of how some of her body is made of wax, in the most simplest of terms.)
Body Type
Narrow framed with a fragile appearance and is a bit chubby overall.
Eyes
Vacant and white. When taken over by the Eye, her scolera's slightly yellow, and their are black slits for pupils. When angry, her eyes become entirely black with two, small white dots as pupils.
Hair
A flaxen white color which is made of some sort of waxy substance, though it is soft and feels similar to hair. It grows back quickly and within about two months, her hair is already down to her butt.
Scars
On her upper right arm, there is a large, dark red heart patched onto her skin.
Special Physical Attributes
There are greenish-purple crystals growing out of her shoulders, and some more scale-like crystals forming on her skin around the areas where they are planted. These crystals contain stored energy she's taken from others. There are vivid purple and blue-green cracks/veins stretching outward from these crystal patches on her shoulders fading after they leave the immediate area of the crystals. Then, there are also glow in the dark tattooes all over her back: these include triangles and ciphers. These of course aren't visible in the light, and she has no idea why they're there or when they appeared.
Clothing
Her usual attire is no longer as frilly as it used to be. Instead it's turned into a more lazy version of what she used to wear. Whether it's baggy shorts or more tighter fit high waist shorts, it's usually the same apparel. She usually wears the same sweater that she used to (sometimes in crop top style), however the sleeves are no longer as bulky as they used to be, instead being cut short into short sleeves. These sleeves are attached with buttons to the tank top sweater so the crystals on her shoulders have room. What hasn't changed, however, are those bright blue polka dot leggings she wears.
Physical Description Paragraph
Evelyn perhaps isn't the most mentally sound person- Her eyes are white and completely empty, and unless she turns her head, no one knows where she's looking. Is she looking at you? Maybe. But no need to worry, she can see just fine. Her entire body is wax-like flesh, including her hair. Whenever she gets angry, her core temperature rises dramatically, causing her eyes to leak the melting wax in the most oddest of fashions. Back to the topic of her hair; it feels very soft and feels close to the texture of real hair, but alas, it is still wax. Those two candles which stick out of her head like horns are what shows her core temperature best. The flames are usually a healthy blue/green, but whenever she is sad, tired or trying to camouflage, the flames become extremely dim and dark blue. When she's angry, those flames go roaring, causing her hair to drip steaming, hot wax, as well as her eyes. She doesn't stick out much as far as height goes, but what does stick out are the crystals on her shoulders, and the same crystals surround them in a scaly appearance. From these crystals, purple and blue-green cracks stretch around er shoulders, thinning out sooner than later. On her upper right arm, it appears to be a large heart patched onto her arm.
Family
She ate all of their souls and trapped them in the gems on her shoulders before she ran away from home, using them up as energy in the process. She used to have a younger brother, a mother and a father who used to be abusive towards her.
Quirks
She loves the dark and absentmindedly twiddles her thumbs a lot.
Goals
This is an answer only she and Ralphie know. But she does have another important goal, and that's to make friends. Actually who needs friends? Haha not Evelyn definitely not what are you talking about.
Interests
Outer space, complex spells, geology, and baking- scratch that last one- getting baked.
Habits
She smokes weed. A lot.
Vices
Sometimes when she's angry or emotionally distraught, she blocks everyone out and does nothing to fix things.
What Does Your Room Look Like
The first thing you'd notice was the smell of weed and lavender. All of the six walls (plus the walls of the nook) are painted a dark blue-green. The nook parallel to the door features a large arched window with black, lacy curtains and a triangle stain glass at the very top. There in the nook is where her bed fits; her bed has ornately carved wooden bed posts, and atop the comfortable mattress are plenty of pillows and throw blankets- a rather messy scene. There is a painting easel in the corner with... nsfw (LESBIAN N U D ES) artworks she painted herself hanging around there with a little table for all of her paints. A large, dark chest is pushed against one wall What's inside of it, well, no one knows except for Evelyn. Take caution around it. If you want to at least, Evelyn doesn't care about that old thing anymore. Anyways, there is a large (obviously dyed) dark red rug in the middle of the room. A large, antique mirror with a crack running down the middle is pushed up against the wall near the large chest. Posters of outer space, nude portraits/posters, and paintings of triangles litter the walls. Mostly empty bookshelves (with most of the books that should be there are scattered all around the floor) seem crooked on one end of the room, an old wardrobe which should be containing all of her clothes remains open and instead houses a large stereo system for her jams. Her clothes have found a home all over her floor. A large leather seat adorns the large wooden desk which displays enough weed to keep her high for months. On the shelf above the desk, there is a row of candles which are almost always lit.
Her room is in the large attic of a bakery she no longer works at on weekdays as she just doesn't seem to care anymore. In the basement is a secret passage way which leads to the underground cult she belongs to.
Personality
Where to begin? How about first impressions? At first, it's her bad attitude that sticks out like a sore thumb. Almost always grunting and seeming displeased, Evelyn Leigh is usually acting very nonchalant and uncaring. At times, she says things spontaneously that make no sense as if she had been thinking of something else the entire time. Once you get to know her after getting past her tough shell she surprisingly has, she's still a bit rude, but you'll find she she is indeed extremely soft and sensitive with a loud sense of humor, and harsh words from others can deeply hurt her even though she acts like she doesn't care at all.
One thing about Evelyn is that she is apt to sink into fits of extreme moodiness quite frequently. Evelyn is creative: the candle demon can come up with brilliant and innovative ideas using her imaginative powers. However, in the process she can end up with ideas that may not be too practical, or may be too over-ambitious.
Along with being low-key creative, she is spontaneous with the power to think and act spontaneously, It is a major guiding force for Evelyn, and more than reasoning, she relies on her intuition for taking decisions.
As I digress however, she can be extremely temperamental and her mood swings are simply unpredictable which may become overwhelming for those around her. Evelyn can easily get bogged down by setbacks and failures, and it is observed that she is prone to pessimism and procrastination. But one of her strongest negative traits is her clingy nature, one of her characteristics: She finds it difficult to let go of things close to her heart, and hence, she finds it difficult to look beyond the imperfections and move on. Furthermore, she's always inclined to carry imaginary hurts and setbacks along with them. This is because of her overemotional nature, which can create highly unsettling conditions for her. And on the topic of unsettling conditions, this certain individual is also prone to doubt people’s intentions as she carries an imaginary fear. She holds everything that is her's VERY closely, and she tends to become possessive and is extremely prone to jealousy. She is giving to some, but sharing doesn’t come easily to her when it's about things that are only her's. Ralphie used to be more possessive than her, but now that Evelyn is the top dog, Ralphie no longer intervenes or causes her trouble.
Overall, Evelyn is a tough nut to crack, a fireball at best, rude at first, loving and generous to her select few, lazy, humorous, creative and perhaps a bit off her rocker at times. In the end, she only wants to be accepted for who she is now- the full package.

Polka dots, smoking weed, indie music (anything she can get her chill on to tbh), piggyback rides, the forest, autumn, Halloween, cats, bats, painting/doodling, being alone, and not having to do anything important relating to her cult job.

Enemies
None to list so far.

Thomas.
What Do You Consider Your Position In The Cult
High Spy
What Do You Do For The Group
She acts like a spy of sorts by using her shadow ability to conceal herself. She reports any important information she gets to higher ups.
How You Joined the Group
After running away from her old town, she eventually wound up in the woods outside some town. Evelyn had been evading police and just about anyone up until that point, and low on energy, she was hiding out in some bushes hoping that she'd be able to gain back some of her strength soon- However, a conversation near that particular bush led her to hear and see just a bit too much. And well- once they found her, they couldn't just let her off the hook.
(It's been a while since I've updated the former cinnamon roll (now sinnamon roll). A lot has changed! She used to be a very gentle candle smol, but now she's got a rude tude' and smokes weed a bit too much. It's about time I've got around to this!)
