Meet Kathryn

"There we stood, across the room from each other. I could see the fire in her eyes and felt the rage in my own body rising. How had this happened? How could this truly be? Once we were best friends, and now it seemed we were doomed to be worst enemies. "-Elizabeth

So, I was going to name the best friend Katelyn and then decided to go back to the original name of Kathryn because all the characters in the witches world have classic old school names (Elizabeth, Kathryn, Joshua, Hannah) So, Katelyn is a fabulous name, and one that I really love, but Kathryn fits a little bit better. Plus, I have a niece named Katelyn and since Katelyn becomes a bad guy I didn't want my niece to get a bad example from her name...even though it was her name first... any way, Meet Kathryn. She is average height with medium length curly blonde hair. She is from one of the 6 main families in the story. Elizabeth is from one, as is Joshua (who you will meet in the next post). Kathryn and Elizabeth grew up down the street from each other, and are best friends. They do everything together, that is until Elizabeth falls head over heels in love with a boy that is not like them...he's normal. At first she can't understand the draw, but as she gets to know this boy she falls in love with him too.
In the begining she is a very kind hearted person...to an extent. She feels very much superior to others and doesn't see why Elizabeth can't see that. She spends all her time thinking of herself first and others if she remembers to think about it (which doesn't happen very often) she is jealous of Elizabeth's natural gift at "witchcraft" (not typical witchcraft...I'll have to explain it sometime) and Kathryn's greatest desire (especially after Elizabeth and Luke meet) is to be Elizabeth.
You may ask yourself how Kathryn could turn into a bad guy...or maybe not. But, its her lust for Luke that cause her to cast a love spell over him when Elizabeth breaks up with him over family issues. See, now I'm getting way ahead of myself because so much really needs to be explained about their world, but pretty much she casts a spell she knows she shouldn't and makes Luke think he's in love with her, when he's not. So, she becomes a bad person and ends up hating Elizabeth for it.
So, there you go. Next time...Joshua
