Skills

common knowledge passed down through the witch bloodlines.
Heliokinetic
Absorbs and stores energy from sunlight much like nitchirin swords. Relies on these energy stores for magical power and for protection at night. Can even absorb sun's reflective energy from full moon but it's not nearly as much as she gets from normal sunlight.
Swordfighting
Actually skilled with swordfighting but has an unconventional method of fighting with one. Uses a nitchirin shortsword that was specifically forged to handle her energy, though it does have it's limits.
She doesn't fight like this at night much because it burns through her energy stores even quicker than her typical magic casting.
Healing
Can use her energy stores to heal/mend her own wounds and the wounds of others.
Singing
Used for casting spells but also sings to comfort and entertain herself. Will sometimes sing for those shes close to.
Hand-to-Hand
Preferred fighting method along with magic casting
Dream Scape
Ability passed down from mother. Eases nightmares and can even share memories among willing participants

Fun Facts
Alora doesn't actually know who her biological father is, which isn't unusual for witches when it comes to having one human parent
Her memories of her past and family are rather fuzzy and she can't actually recall the events of their deaths at all. This is due to Aeon's influence.
She loves making sweets. She pours a bit of magic into them so whoever eats them will start feeling better
Her instant motherly/sisterly nature towards those she meets may be linked to the trauma with her family and childhood
She gets extremely nervous around large groups of people and crowds, especially if they have weapons
Weary of fire. Candles and lanterns are fine but torches make her nervous and bonfires are an absolute NO
Alora and Atsuo were the ones who took care of their younger siblings. Their mother was practically useless so it was up to her oldest kids to care for their siblings. Alora has a lot of resentment towards her for this when any try to bring up her mother
Alora loves doing hair and braids. She does Akari's often and it's a big way for them to bond. They also decorate each others' hair and braids with jewelry and trinkets. This is a common witch tradition.
While Alora is typically shy, quiet, and gentle natured, she will absolutely NOT take any disrespect towards anyone she cares for
She can be absolutley terrifying when angry. She will loom and stare down any who anger her. Even the demons she befriends know to steer clear when shes in a bad mood
Will blow air like an equine and snarl like the spirits she's grown up with
Does kind things on a whim and doesn't really think about any sort of reward or gratitude. In fact she gets quite startled when someone tries to thank her or repay her kindness.
History
Alora has spent the better part of her life (from what she recalls) living in the forest surrounding the Swordsmith Villiage under the care and protection of her father, the forest spirit known as Aeon. She's cherished by the old being as she is his only daughter amongst his dozens of sons.
She's been kind and friendly with the children of the villiage over the years, often playing with them and telling stories orkeeping watch over them as they played in the forest. Once they grow up though, she becomes more distant and rarely seen once they're adults. The swordsmiths understand though and even built her a shrine where they leave gifts and trinkets for her.
Alora did leave the the forest for a time for unknown reasons, but fully returned within a couple years. None of the villiagers knew what was going on until some months later when their kids started taking rather odd things to her shrine as offerings. Little toys, fabric, blankets, and other odds and ends. Things were confirmed when one of the villiagers saw her taking a late evening stroll with a little bundle in her arms. Needless to say the villiagers held a little celebration in honor of the first child of the kind Spirit Witch. None know who the father is but it doesn't seem to matter to her so it doesn't matter to them.
First time parenting was rough for Alora despite the help she had from her brothers and Aeon, which isn't much help since they're four legged equine spirits and can't physically care for or hold a baby. She eventually did ask one of the elder swordsmiths for advice and he was more than happy to take her and little Akari under his care. They spent much time with the old man until Akari was was 8 and her powers awakened. She was able to be more independent and care for herself so the two disappeared into the forest again. Akari was more bold than her mother and would come into the village every-so-often to visit the old man who cared for her and check out the other swordsmiths and kids.
Alora and Akari disappeared again though this time Akari told the old man that she'd convinced her mother to go out and explore the country a bit. They'd be back eventually...
Roughly two years later Alora meets Tanjiro and Nezuko.Aug 2, 2023
