Rose the Manaic

Rose never grew up to be the person her mother wanted her to. She played with the boys and only wore dresses on special occasions, and climbed trees. It all drove her mother up the wall, and she always shouted at Rose about why she could not be different, planting the seed of self-loathing and anger that the infamous spellcaster known only as Lady Hex was quick to take advantage of. Finally their conflict came to physical blows, and at that moment her own mother assaulted her with a kitchen knife, she changed into a Maniac Undying from the spell of Hex's that had lain dormant inside her for years.

But as a member of the vaunted Exploration Society, she can finally start to slowly overcome her years as a thrall of Lady Hex's using her water magic on villains and protecting other explorers from harm. There is a part of her that still whispers that she's no better than those she fights, don't get me wrong, but others are starting to see what her mother could not.
