Physical Description:
She's a goldfinch, see image.

Spoiler
In reality, Carolina is a very low level demon. Her default form is one of a violet-skinned teenage girl in a purple cowl. Her yellow, almond shaped eyes are much too large for her head. She's not bothered by people touching her eyeballs, oddly enough. Her legs and feet are perpetually burnt to a crisp from wandering the underworld barefoot- it's really hot down there. Her "hair" is more of a weird, phlegm-like substance than it is actual hair. Carolina can wring it out even when it's not wet, much to the disgust of everybody.

Personality:
Carolina is a really impish, mischievous bird. She's very curious, and often gets into things she shouldn't. She also "talks" way too much, although only Ignatius can hear her. She seems to take issue with any form of authority- be it moral or legal, Carolina will rail against them.

Carolina seems to know a lot of things a regular bird shouldn't...

Relationships:
Carolina genuinely loves her "owner" Ignatius, and she considers him the best friend she's ever had. She does like annoying him though, and does thing like pick at his hair and chirp loudly when he's trying to sleep. She also strokes his ego quite a bit, but that's because she thinks Ignatius is cool and wants him to think so too.

Spoiler
Ignatius doesn't know Carolina's true nature- and if she has her way, he never will. She's terrified of alienating him, even if she knows he'd think her secret was awesome.

She seems to like Ignatius's boss Hildegarde, but she also likes to make fun of her. She's really lucky that she can't hear her.

Magic/Abilities:
She can telepathically talk to Ignatius, but she doesn't know why. Apart from that, she's a seemingly normal goldfinch.

Spoiler
Did you think you'd open this spoiler and find out Carolina is actually badass? Nope! Her demonic form is ridiculously weak- all she can do is throw globs of her "hair" at people. It's gross and people can slip in it, but it's not really dangerous.

History:
For the spoiler-free history, see Ignatius's profile

Spoiler
Carolina- if that's even her real name- spawned in the underworld a few hundred years ago. She always dreamed of traveling to the mortal plane to mess with humans, and finally got her chance by sneaking out behind a larger, more powerful demon!

She didn't get very far- she only got to let a fox into a hen house before she got caught. The priest who was sent to deal with her wasn't strong enough to banish her, so he ended up sealing her away in a bird.

After living a few years as a goldfinch, Carolina found an oddity- a human boy who could hear her voice. She followed him home, and the two became fast friends. She's been supportive of his decision to join The Friends, and she personally thinks being a criminal is a blast!

Seriously, that's her story. Were you expecting something cool?
