 When Farah's powers are in use, her eye color shifts to a blue-grey. Farah often wears a long coat over any outfit she wears, often simple pants and a blouse. She has a tattoo on her index finger of a line circling above her knuckle and three dots closer to her fingertips.
Personality: Farah is typically a very closed-off and hardened woman due to the many secrets she hides about her past and the past of Alfea in order to keep her students safe. However, she shows her softer side around her friends and fellow professors, Saúl Silva and Ben Harvey.
Abilities: Farah has Basic Fairy Abilities, such as the ability to channel her emotions (and the Stone Circle) as a source for her magic and the ability to create barriers (a barrier situated around Alfea to serve as protection from… outside threats) and veils, specifically cryo-inducement veils (used in her office at Alfea, she has a veil to protect the staircase behind her bookcase, but in order to enter this veil without permission, you must trigger the trap) and prison veils (designed to restrain a person and is strong enough to contain a very powerful fairy). Her mind fairy abilities include telekinesis (the ability to move things with her mind) and memory scanning )visualizing a person's previous encounters through their memories). Additionally, through training, Farah has also learned the water fairy ability of hydrokinesis (the ability to control water with her mind), the fire fairy ability of incineration, and air fairy abilities including enhanced hearing and electrokinesis (the ability to manipulate electricity in the air with her mind). Farah is also able to combine her magic with other fairies to make a collective, much stronger magic.
Strengths: Farah is extremely strong in her abilities, and her friendship with Saúl Silva and Ben Harvey is very tight. She also is extremely hard-working, is mentally tough/has strong mental defenses, and is a decisive and smart decision maker. She is able to keep a level head and level emotions in tense, demanding situations.
Weaknesses: Farah has severe trust issues with people she doesn't know or doesn't know well. She keeps many of secrets and is secretly afraid of the wrong people finding them out. Her composure can be very stoic, almost unemotional at times.
Quotes:

• “This world isn’t safe.”
• “Runaway fear leads to runaway magic.”
• “Distraction can cause magic to be erratic.”

• “Magic can be dangerous, as you well know.”
• “You focus, you learn, you grow. Eventually, the answers will come.”
• “They’ve had order for so long, they don’t know what chaos feels like.”
• “Alfea’s graduates have ruled realms and led armies. They’ve forged powerful relics and rediscovered long-lost magic. They shaped the Otherworld. If you succeed here, you will too.”
• “When I became headmistress, I made a decision - to become a figurehead. To project strength. It’s what students your age need. Admitting mistakes invites uncertainty. But not admitting them means people you care about have to ask if you hug.”

(Okay, sounds good! Just let me know what kind of fairy your character will be - Fire, Air, Earth, Water, Light, or Mind - and I can let you know some simple powers to start out with! :))

(Sounds good! You'll definitely start out with photokinesis)

Photokinesis: The ability to generate and manipulate light. This applies this in many ways through creating light to hover over, generate light and a variety of colors in the palms of hands.

(And then here are some other light fairy abilities! You could probably chose one or two in addition to photokinesis depending on what year your character is)

Light Dispersion/Color Generation: The ability to change the light to any color.
Invisibility: To make oneself visually undetectable by other people.
Astral Projection: The ability to project your image without being physically there.
Illusion Manipulation: The power to control the light that one's eyes perceive, making one see things that aren't there.

(Hope that helped! :))
