Sorcha Hazelhurst
the Thornbright Witch
Born of hazel wood and radiant will, named for the brightness that grows through thorns.
Power
Briar-bending — you command the living tangle of thorn and root to shape itself into crown or cage, and the earth remembers every snag you choose.

You would not let them weave the hazel into a throne for another. So you took the wildwood's knot and braided it yourself — and the first thorn that drew blood sealed your name in the soil.
