Caitlyn
“Magic’s not about fireworks — it’s about making sure the damn scroll doesn’t ignite your drapes.”
Caitlyn is Redbrook’s resident wizard, scroll-crafter, and magical problem-solver — or trouble-starter, depending on the day. Specializing in enchantment, evocation, and abjuration, she’s more of a magical artisan than a battlefield caster, but when things explode, it’s usually her doing.
A former Mage Guild license holder for dangerous enchantments, Caitlyn has long since let that paperwork lapse. She’s talented, trusted, and known across the town not just for her magic, but for her friendship with Selane and rivalry-turned-partnership with Eric the blacksmith.
Appearance
- Wears robe-coats with reinforced sleeves, and goggles often perched on her forehead
- Hair tied up hastily or scorched at the edges

Personality
- Sharp, witty, and self-deprecating when she feels it
- Respects knowledge, but doesn’t tolerate nonsense
- Protective of the people she cares about, even if she shows it with sarcasm and fire spells
- Has a strong moral compass beneath the magical chaos
- Will step up, not aside, when the town’s safety is at risk
Skills & Craft
- Enchants scrolls, wards homes, and occasionally creates magical curiosities
- Known for her explosion-proof tea cups, enchanted with lightness and fire-resistance
- Can cast powerful abjurations and evocations, but prefers subtle enchantments
- Maintains a small arcane library in her home — modest but effective
- Has not renewed her Mage Guild license due to past scrutiny and personal convictions
Relationships
- Selane – Her closest friend; they share tea, troubles, and mutual respect
- Eric – Constant craft rival; if he weren’t married, she would have married him just to win
- Selane’s Brother – A trusted figure in her life; helps with parenting and emotional support
- Eldric – Watches him with quiet scrutiny — “If he breaks her heart, he’ll find frogs in his boots for a year.”
