Giselle Magnus

Giselle Nerissa Magnus is a young witch, and member of the Golden Phoenix Coven. Unlike most others, she inherited her magical genes from her father rather than her mother. In fact, her mother was so drastically against witchcraft that she abandoned them when she found out that her child was gifted with it.

Heartbroken, Giselle's father decided to cut off his own powers, making himself a mortal. He couldn't bring himself to do the same to his child, as it was a part of her, but he never taught her much either since it hurt him too much.

He got remarried soon after, and had a second, mortal child with his new wife. Neither of them should know what he used to be, and what Giselle still was.

Besides her younger, paternal half-brother, she also has an older, maternal half-sister, but at this point she isn't particularly close to either of her powerless siblings.
