Lucy Wickwright

Name: Lucy Wickwright Type: character Appearance: teenager, glasses, dark hair that is often in a braid, pale skin, freckles Mental: Lucy had no more ambition than a blade of grass. It was simply as a helpful and obedient servant that she carried money to Arden Gutz, the Cause’s imprisoned leader, and it was only after he convinced her that Pauline’s life was at risk that she agreed to become his spy. So a new dynasty might have begun, had not Lucy been a girl both brave and true. Clothing: yellow sweater, oversize boots Secret: She has six toes on each foot, like Lord Cant, which is evidence she is his biological daughter. Attribute: occasionally looking sleepy or tired Description: Lucy was still playing with dolls when a villain plotted the murder of her family. Taken to the castle to serve Lord Cant’s daughter — the Adored & Honorable Pauline — Lucy endured the relentless teasing of the older maids, and then became an unwitting pawn of the rebel cause. Background: The story is set in the Barony of Cant, a realm where traditional values and technologies clash with modern innovations like televisions and pogo sticks. The central conflict, known as the Chewing Gum Rebellion, revolves around the struggle for rulership of the Barony. Lucy Wickwright, a humble servant, becomes embroiled in the rebellion when she discovers she is the abandoned firstborn child of Lord Cant. This revelation sparks a power struggle between rival factions, with Lucy caught in the middle. Alongside Lucy is Pauline von Cant, the rightful heiress to the Barony.
