Winifred is a cheery soul with plenty of happiness to share, but is often times aggressive with how she shows it. Winifred will gladly go out of her way to help someone in her own unique way, but she doesn't expect the gesture to be returned, or to be considered a friend for it. She simply does it because she can, and why shouldn't she? Winifred does enjoy the camaraderie of a tight knit group all facing terrible odds together, and perhaps the occasional no strings attached evening, but romance? Terrifying.
Winifred displays an almost Devil-may-care attitude when it comes to the value of her own life. She may go on about the importance of herself and her mission, but her actions hardly reflect that. After dealing with the occult for so long Winifred has developed a worrying lack of a healthy fear for near anything. But she also doesn't let things like death and misfortune bog her down. Life happens to the best of us. Wini's too focused on the well being of others that she often times neglects herself, and it's hard to see with her near constant positive attitude.
Winifred has a bad habit of bottling her negative emotions up to the point where she isn't sure how to properly express them anymore. Her quick retorts and sassy behavior is her only way of expressing such feelings. A close call with a loss of sanity, a moment when she used her powers too much, left Winifred with an off and on feeling of dread that needs little "proof" to be validated. Despite her carefree attitude, Winifred takes her job quite seriously. She might see herself as being great, but with it comes a sense of responsibility. Her higher calling should not be needlessly flaunted, but wielded properly to give her companions an edge in a truly unforgiving lifestyle.
▶ B I O _
Winifred was born into a small family of Occultists out of Bolsover, England. Youngest child of three, Winifred was chosen to wield an artifact that had been passed down through the family for centuries: the eyes of an alien capable of seeing most planes of existence. Only members of the family could safely use this artifact, as it required a specific set of genes to properly splice with. Winifred went through surgery at the tender age of six. Winifred began her training young, but her occultist teachers were not unkind. They treated Winifred as well, and like her parents, like she was important and valued. She was given alot of freedom so long as she fulfilled her duties and completed her studies, which included strengthening her mind for the trials to come, and finding the little things in life to help soothe the terrifying reality of the world.
By the time Winifred was 16, she had seen many things and dealt with the personal fallout of them all, being in a leadership position at a terribly young age. She learned that many before her were given these eyes, and many had succumbed to the madness that seeing the strange in it's raw form could drive them too. She had witnessed beloved companions fall to to madness, kill others in it's throes, and be reduced to babbling wrecks of their former selves. Determined to not fall victim to it herself she developed a few habits and that kept her grounded. This included taking care of her other occultists and ensuring their mental stability, as she's seen too many first hand encounters to those that lost themselves. Just knowing she helped in some small way did wonders for Winifred, and it became an almost obsessive habit.
It would be a lie to say fighting the strange and peculiar in her youth didn't terrify Winifred, but she grew to accept that death was part of their fight. There was too much responsibility placed on her shoulders to run from it, but studying their enemy to better understand how to destroy them quickly helped focus her. It made her brutal, especially against squishier human combatants, but efficient. Efficiency is key. Efficiency lowers loses.
The family was approached by Sigma Black to offer a position for one of their numbers, preferably someone with knowledge of occult warfare. Winifred jumped at the opportunity, eager to prove herself and gain access to the resources Sigma would have. Though they were reluctant to let her go, the family approved after a few trials to ensure her readiness.
