Description It she!! She finally has a ref now!! And I'm super proud of it, too!! Yeeehaw!
I gave her a bit of a redesign, just spruced a few things up a bit.
I know I've said all of this somewhere before but, since this is her ref I'm gonna copy and paste her story for convenience lol:

Wisp/Willow/"The White Angel" is an angel sent down to help and guide lost souls, though she's interpreted differently throughout cultures; No one knows her true name, and the name's she does go by are passed on through mythology and folk-tales. She lures the "lost souls" to her using will-o'-the-wisps, and convinces them to join her on a journey; Though occasionally the lost souls will already be on a journey, in which Wisp will join them quietly. Her goal is to make sure that by the end of the journey they either carry out their destiny, reach an understanding, or begin to follow the right path; However, this doesn't mean that all of her journeys end happily-ever-after for the lost-souls she accompanies, as they'll often die on their journey, and a few have even become corrupted by darkness on the way. She holds great power and is immortal in the sense that she's always brought back from death, but she's burdened by her job and she wishes she could have an easier life. She holds a lot of regrets and feels terrible when something happens to the lost-souls on her journey, often feeling responsible for their fates. She's generally very kind, albeit a bit detached, but she tries not to get attached to any of the souls she guides since it's technically against her job; She did end up getting attached once, but it didn't end well.

It's worth mentioning sometimes I get lazy and just call her WW for "Wisp Wolf" bc it's,, easy to type and less confusing lol, so if you see me refer to a character as WW, I'm prooob talkin about this gal.

I'd like to talk about her symbols a bit, too. Since she uses will-o'-the-wisps to lure people into travelling with her, I figured it was only fitting that her symbols are Celtic! I tried to portray them as accurately as possible, but if I interpreted them wrong or something please let me know so I can fix it! From left to right, the symbols featured are the Celtic Tree of Life (represents a connection between Heaven and Earth and Harmony/Balance), the Triskele (represents birth, death, and rebirth), and the Triquetra (represents Body, Mind, and Spirit). They also have some religious ties, but since WW is represented differently in different cultures, I figured I'll leave that up to your interpretation c:

Again, if I'm interpreting any of these wrong please lmk! I find stuff like this fascinating ^^

Sorry this took so long to get out btw, I always end up being waaayyy too much of a perfectionist on my refs xD I'd like to get a few more refs done soon,, but we'll see haha
WW and the art above belong to me. Please don't reupload/trace/heavily reference the character and/or the art above! Thanks!

OOOOOOOOOOO

She looks amazing! I love her designs so much, I love her story too

Also those Celtic symbols look pretty much perfect! I don’t think you’ll need to change anything
