Victoria Fairfax
Background:
Victoria Fairfax is the fourth-born of the Fairfax daughters, and the one most consumed by her own potential. While Catherine inherited leadership, Elizabeth the family’s cold discipline, and Margaret their social grace, Victoria seemed poised to inherit greatness itself. A dazzling blend of beauty, intellect, and magical talent, she was practically born to be the family’s crown jewel. And yet, she was not. The moment Jessica was born — a seventh daughter of a seventh daughter — Victoria's future was eclipsed.
What followed was a slow-burning transformation. The ambitious, eager child became a perfectionist, chasing excellence like oxygen. Her magical studies were grueling. Her appearance was flawless. Her manners, faultless. She bent her soul into the shape of what she thought her parents wanted — only to see her accomplishments dismissed in favor of Jessica's destiny.
Her mother offered encouragement, but it felt like pity. Her father offered nothing at all.
So Victoria became something else. Not the golden child, but the razor behind the smile. Not the heir, but the crown in exile. She has never stopped seeking approval, but now her love comes laced with poison. She adores her family only as much as they elevate her — and no more.
Personality:
Victoria Fairfax is intensely proud, fiercely driven, and deeply wounded. She walks like a queen without a crown, regal even in her pain. She thrives on competition and recognition, but the very structure of her family has denied her both, leading to a soul divided between longing and rage.
Outwardly, she is perfection: stylish, poised, eloquent. Inwardly, she battles shame, jealousy, and an insatiable desire to prove she matters. This contradiction is what makes her dangerous — not because she is cruel, but because she believes she must be.
She resents Jessica with a bitterness that is nearly mythic, not because Jessica wronged her, but because Jessica exists as a living monument to everything Victoria will never be. Despite this, there is a lingering sliver of affection in her — one that she hides, even from herself. She is not beyond redemption. But she will burn the world down before admitting she needs saving.
