Name; Alyson

Age; Sixteen

Gender; Femme

Race; Faerie

Appearance; Some say that she has looks fit for a magazine ad. Others would say they'd die for her looks. Alyson has the natural beauty, and there would be no need for any make-up. She didn't need it. With storm-grey eyes and chocolate-brown hair, Alyson something close to perfect.

Personality; Friendly, Out-Going, Relaxed. With friends, she's completely herself, comfortable. But i crowds, she is a nervous wreck. She hates to meet new people. It puts her on an edge. But if anyone were to insult her, she'd release the bitch within her.

History; Sixteen-year-old Alyson has lived her whole life on her family's land near Orick, California and the Redwood National and State Parks, where she was homeschooled by her hippie parents. So when she moves to Crescent City, California to attend public school, Aly has some adjustments to make. While she misses being outdoors all the time, she's getting along pretty well at her new school and soon befriends a few of the other kids at the school. Things are looking up until a bump between Aly's shoulders sprouts into a giant flower on her back.

Hesitant to confide her recent affliction to her parents, Aly seeks help from David, her closest friend, and together they investigate the strange phenomenon of her "wings." Their only clue is that—much to Aly's embarrassment—when she was about three years old, she was found on her parents’ doorstep in a basket, with no knowledge of where she came from.

On a trip back to the family home, Aly's world is forever changed when she encounters Tamani. Aly finds herself inexplicably drawn to him, and he provides many of the answers she has been seeking. It turns out she’s not even human; like Tamani, she’s a faerie.
