Personal history
Poppy was born in Devon, England, to a loving mother and father, 5 minutes before her sister, Agnes. At the age of six she began to complain of pain in her back, around the same time her sister's eyes started glowing green from time to time, and soon afterwards wings were discovered sprouting out of her back. They grew painfully to full-size, and with them brought her a new power - the power of Necromancy.
When the Martyrs rose to power, Agnes and Poppy's parents were killed by mob violence, sending the twins on the run. Since then they've lived on the streets hiding from those who would do them harm.
