Wren D. Tierney

Wren D. Tierney is a first year Serpentine at Hogweed Academy of Spellcraft and Sorcery. She met her friends Louisa O'Brien, Imogen Sigrunsdatter, and Celeste Carver-Chapman on the first day of classes, and they are all in 1-C (First Year, Group C), along with Teddy Lycan, Ross Jameson, and Edison Grey.

Physical Description
Wren is a little taller than average (slightly shorter than Louisa, on level with Celeste). Her hair is black and wavy at the ends, but she doesn't quite know how to take care of it yet, so she usually wears her hair in a ponytail. She has thick eyebrows and her eyes are more gray than blue, with a heart-shaped face and a pointed chin.

She takes care of her uniform fairly well at first, but often ends up with it stained or wrinkled by the end of the day.

Personality
It is clear to anyone who meets her that Wren is an anxious individual. It is often shown that she needs reassurance from her friends and teachers, and stressful conversations with her devolve in what is affectionately called a Wramble. However, she shows a competence and confidence in outdoor activities, and has a bit of a mischievous side. She enjoys pranks and jokes, though she specifies that she "likes it better when everyone has fun". Wren is fiercely loyal to her friends, and bold in her protectiveness, sometimes to the point of abrasiveness.

In more familiar or comfortable situations, it is as if Wren forgets to be anxious. When surrounded by friends, she is more spontaneous and prone to take risks. When she sets her mind to something, she is fiercely determined and willing to take risks to make things happen. At the same time, her impulsive side causes her panic when she thinks about the consequences of her actions.

Celeste Carver-Chapman
Wren bonded with her Serpentine dorm mate very quickly on the first day, and relies Celeste's ease and confidence heavily. Though she protests at Celeste's more privileged comments, she shows a great deal of care and respect for the other Serp, referring to her as her "best friend", and readily defends her in front of her rival/arch-nemesis, Katherine Kim. Wren seems to want Celeste's approval but does not know how to react when she gets it.

Louisa O'Brien
Wren has a great deal of affection and respect for Louisa. She often shows confusion at Lou's more open and emotionally expressive comments, but takes anything that the Fruff says as a certain truth. Out of all of the Sorcery Sisters, she is worried about disappointing Louisa the most.

Imogen Sigrunsdatter
Wren delights in Imogen's eccentricities and readily supports them. She feels very protective of the Lorie and enjoys participating in her antics (except when it's researching the history of Hogweed's suits of armor). Wren seems at ease around her, and the two of them enjoy working on homework and studying together. At some intervals, Wren shows confusion and awe at the free-spirited joy that Imogen exudes.

Professor Jameson
Being the first sorcerer that she met, and the one that showed her around Horizontae Lane, Wren is more comfortable around Professor Jameson than she is around any other teachers at Hogweed. She and the other Sorcery Sisters often express concern for his exhaustion or stress, and come to him for help and advice. He shows a great deal of patience when speaking with the students of 1-C, even when they meddle in his affairs and tease him for his crushes.

Professor Singh
Wren's first detentions at Hogweed were held by Professor Singh, and their gentle, amused demeanor seemed to calm Wren enough for the first year to divulge some worries and fears. She often looks to them for advice, and showed much delight and happiness for their budding romance with Professor Jameson.

Maeve and Niall Tierney
Wren has a loving, if complex, relationship with her parents. Her father is shown to have a one-track mind and connect with her most readily on sports-related situations, and her mother shows a similar focus on her extracurricular activities. It is clear they love her deeply, but have high expectations for Wren, insisting that she must be well-rounded if she wants to be afforded all the opportunities that the world has to offer. They don't seem to recognize when she is uncomfortable or anxious, and whether that is a symptom of their memory charm or pure obliviousness, it is anyone's guess.

Henry Porter
Though she and Henry get off to an awkward start, she confides in him about her particular family situation.
