Description:

Ivy is the dark to her sister Lily's light and her mother Holly's twilight. She is fair complexioned with ice blue eyes and long, silky black hair. Her body is flawless, long legged and full breasted. She has a face of an angel, with perfect features and a slight tilt to her eyes. She is tall, and with four inch heels, actually tops Ash, making her about 5'10". A hold over from her father's influence, she still tends to dress as a school girl but now the skirts are shorter, displaying the legs of a dancer. With Ash around, she has discovered a delight in far more revealing clothes then even her 'momma' Jo would select but the hint of exhibitionism gives her a thrill.

Ivy has been sheltered all of her young life. From the moment her father lifted her from that basket until the day she started college as Stanford University, her father has protected her, tried to keep her safe from the monsters that he knew were out there. The trouble was, not all monsters are the big ugly kind. Some are the boy next door.
Chaz, a boy her own age, had been Ivy's only friend for years. Living just over the hill from her isolated home, this seemed only natural. Her father noticed the change in the boy, not the normal hormonal thing all teens go through but a cruelty that began to grow in the boy's eyes.
To Ivy, Chaz did just what she expected every boy friend would do. He was possessive, jealous and would actually beat up other boys that dared to look at her. She didn't know it was Chaz's own magical powers manifesting. The boy discovered he could force others to do what he wanted but when he tried to get Ivy to fool around with him, she resisted. What he didn't understand was Ivy's own powers were blooming and she was infinitely more powerful.
Ivy's father knew what was coming, even if he didn't know of the magic, and put a stop to Chaz's dating Ivy. The boy reacted as only callow youth can and lashed out, not against Ivy and the father but against his own. He found that his parents were very easy to control and took delight in forcing them to do things like buy him a huge new 4x4 truck.
It was then the boy met a Chinese man by the name of Lo Ping and a new chapter of magic opened up for him.
Lo Ping was what was known as a 'sorcerer'. This was a term he never lived to understand but it differentiated a practitioner of 'white' magic from a practitioner of 'black' magic. Where a 'white' mage is a wizard, the 'black' mage is a sorcerer. Lo Ping was definitely on the 'black' side.

Ivy is one of about ten wizards in the world with power perhaps on a level of the Sidhe. She is very new to the concept of magic and does not yet understand the power she carries. With Ash Darke as her mentor she has a great deal to learn and it is highly likely that her own tactics will mirror his for some years. Already there is a philosophical difference as she prefers a non-violent approach to Ash's rather harsh and final methods. A recent incident between Ash and a female student has introduced something new into her life, jealousy, and she has yet to come to grips with it. She now knows, however, that dwelling inside her is the capacity to do violence.

Ivy is pretty much lost in her new world with her only guidepost a very old man whom she first thought of as a professor, then feared as a killer and now loves as a man. She is trying to adjust under the protection of this man she barely knows but strangely trusts, a man who is one moment nearly ninety and the next not yet thirty. She is young and sheltered and has very high ideals of gentleness and peace but finds herself confronted seemingly every moment by contradictions to her former life. Taught be her father as a child the value of honesty she is constantly force to see the inherent dishonesty in those around her and finds herself falling into a pit of despair only to be saved again and again by the light-hearted Ash Darke. Now she must learn to cope in a world she has never known with a man she never saw coming.
