Wendy

Name: Wendy Carter Age: 10 Physical Appearance: Wendy is a small, frail-looking girl with pale, almost ghostlike skin and a slight, delicate frame. Her long blonde hair hangs in a low pigtails, often messy and dorn with a single red flower accessory. Dark, tired bags rest beneath her dull, unfocused eyes. Her eyes are stark white and completely pupil-less, giving her an unsettling, vacant stare. She dresses in a simple red skirt, a crisp white blouse, red-and-white striped stockings, and worn white Mary Jane shoes. There’s a quiet coldness about her presence; she often appears distant, withdrawn, and quietly distrustful of the world around her. Personality Traits: Wendy carries a heavy, morbid outlook on life, frequently framing even the most mundane thoughts through the lens of death and decay. She is melancholic, introspective, and deeply pessimistic, speaking in a flat, deadpan tone that rarely betrays emotion. Despite this, traces of her childhood still linger. She has a quiet fondness for drawing and occasionally writes somber, melancholy poetry, though she often tries to suppress or deny these softer interests.

She behaves as though she is far older than she truly is, adopting a grim maturity that clashes with her limited, childlike understanding of the world. Her emotional range is narrow and subdued, but she shows rare glimpses of warmth and vulnerability when it comes to her twin sister, Abigail. Around her, Wendy becomes slightly more expressive, though still subdued, her attachment is unmistakably deep. Background: Wendy’s life was irrevocably changed by the death of her twin sister, Abigail. Unable to accept the loss, she became consumed by grief and desperation, turning to occult practices in a child’s attempt to defy death itself. Nights were spent hunched over séance candles burned to stubs, spirit boards discarded in frustration, and whispered pleas into the silence.

Just as her hope began to wither, something answered.

A faint ragtime melody drifted through the darkness, an odd and almost mocking response from whatever lay beyond. Desperate, Wendy followed the sign, listening closely until a voice finally spoke, offering her a way to reunite with her sister. The price, however, was not one she fully understood.

Now drawn into a strange and unforgiving world known as the Constant, Wendy struggles to survive its harsh, ever-changing environments. She is no longer alone; her pact has restored Abigail to her, though only as a ghostly presence. Their reunion is bittersweet, bound by forces neither fully comprehends.

Extra Information: Wendy is the younger of the twins. Her father is Jack Carter; her mother remains unnamed. Through her family, she is the niece of Maxwell. Abigail exists as a ghost, communicating only through eerie moans and haunting wails. The Constant is a mysterious island composed of multiple, dangerous biomes. The story is set roughly between 1910 and 1921.
