Willow Pines
Willow Pines is the youngest child of the Pines triplets.Template:Character
Appearance
Willow has wavy red hair, is 6'1", and likes to wear oversized sweaters knitted by Mabel.
History
Willow would have died as a baby if her father and Gruncle Stan hadn't made a deal with Dipper to save her.
Despite this, she retains severe asthma, suffering on and off attacks throughout her life.
In tenth grade one of her teachers, Ms. Lily, approaches her due to their shared and very rare natures as empaths. Initially Ms. Lily teaches her how to shield her mind more effectively, but soon the lessons turn darker, including techniques to make other people feel whatever emotions Willow chooses. For her final lesson, Ms. Lily informs Willow that her powers may be used to devour the life energy of other people. Said energy slows down the empath's aging process, as Ms. Lily explains. It heals her wounds and strengthens her overall. It also leaves the victim weak and ill at the least or, if she consumes too much, an empty shell, technically living but wiped clean of everything that once made that person who they were. When Willow refuses to practice this technique, Ms. Lily attempts to turn it on her. Willow strikes back and ultimately drains Ms. Lily entirely in self-defense.
In her later years, Willow would adopt and raise a multitude of children, known collectively as the Pleiades.
Personality
While Willow isn't exactly shy, she is the most quiet and reserved of the triplets. She is also the most stubborn. Additionally, years of receiving health assistance had caused her to despise asking for help from others.
Willow's hobbies include needlepoint and reading. The girl has a habit of making cryptic remarks which may or many not mean anything important.
Powers
Due to the influence of the demonic power that save her, Willow posses the sight, as well as the ability to produce blue fire. She is also an empath, which means that she can see emotions as auras surrounding people and feel some of those emotions. Her mind cannot cope with feeling the emotions of multiple other people at once so she has a "shield " around her mind to protect it. Technically she is capable of impressing emotions upon others or even of feeding off of their emotions to strengthen herself, though she does not use such powers if she can help it.
