Introduction
Wild yet endearing, Amethyst is a clever ball of energy with no stop button whatsoever. Getting in her way is not recommended, especially if there is any kind of contraption on her wheelchair at the time.
Personality
Preferring to go full-throttle through the obstacles in her path rather than go around them like her brother, Amethyst refuses to back down from a challenge. While she's still investigating what exactly happened in the days leading up to the incident, as well as what happened that night, she does everything she can to enjoy each moment with all she's got, becoming more energetic and outgoing than she was in her early childhood.
Backstory
Early Life & Childhood
Amethyst and her brother, Cris, were raised in a loving household. A very happy and curious child (even if it wasn't exactly easy to move with only one leg), she asked a lot of questions, noting how some of them got more difficult answers than others. Young as she was, she began to take notes to try and figure things out. It was like she was a detective from one of her favorite shows! Her father, Kylen, seemed upset at times, especially when asked about his old job. And her mother, Lilia, also seemed a bit worried, so the old job must've had bad people who hurt them! But why?
The Incident
When Amethyst was 9 and a half, Lilia came back home... very upset. She'd never seen her mother like that before, and any questions she asked were brushed off. Lilia still looked wobbly after a bath, even though she had said everything'd be fine. Even her father didn't know what happened after he asked! Something was very clearly wrong, and Amethyst was going to find out what.
Sneaking downstairs one night when she saw her parents leave their room, she eavesdropped on their conversation. Kylen... Definitely didn't seem okay. He kept talking about someone he talked to earlier that day, what they said... Amethyst didn't catch it all, even after she snuck closer, but she got bits and pieces. This person.. bragged about hurting her mother. Made her father feel helpless, and now... Amethyst watched in horror as Kylen attacked and Lilia evaded. He had an ax... They left her sight, and it was only when the commotion stopped abruptly that Amethyst knew her mother was dead. She tried to hide in a different room, but Kylen came back.
She wouldn't ever forget the look on his face, or what he said before he raised the ax.
"I can't let them hurt you, too."
Post-Incident
Upon waking up, Amethyst was confronted with the obvious realization that no, she wasn't dead. In fact, she was in the hospital, missing the one leg she was born with. An old friend of her mother's, Lucerna Glowshroud, then came in to explain what little she knew. Her mother was dead. Her father was dead. Cris was alive, albeit injured as well. The two of them were going to live with Lucerna from then on, at least once they got out of the hospital. Amethyst also learned a few more things, from careful listening to Lucerna and the nurses. Nobody outside the house knew what happened that night. Kylen died somehow, after she blacked out. Cris, who to her knowledge was uninjured and uninvolved when she went down there, had several bruises and a cut across his eyelid that definitely didn't come from an ax. He didn't remember what happened that night, or just didn't want to tell anyone. The nurses kept asking her questions, and she found herself not wanting to answer them, either; not until she had time to talk to Cris.
After the first week or so, the hospital became incredibly boring, and Amethyst found herself very restless, so she convinced a nurse to get her a notebook and began writing. Everything she knew about the situation, all in code (looking back, it was really easy to crack, being a simple number substitution, but it worked). She didn't get much further, so she moved on to other mysteries, such as the person that hurt her mother (revenge) and what Cris was doing now that he got discharged from the hospital and could only visit her sometimes (he looked so upset...).
Eventually, once Amethyst obtained her freedom, as well as a wheelchair, she had more avenues to explore aside from the mysteries, such as how to go faster and up or down stairs!
