🌙 Meet Lydia Martin. She is an 18 year old Banshee and looks a lot like Holland Roden. Lydia is a senior at Beacon Hills High School, and is a part of the McCall pack. Fortunately she is currently AVAILABLE 🌙
“I will not fall pray to society’s desire to turn girls into emotionally, insecure neurotics who pull up their dresses at the first flattering remark.”
Lydia grew up in a stable wealthy household. Where image and social status were the fundamentals of life. She found herself to be extremely intelligent, but quickly learned that being ahead of everyone else wasn’t such a good thing socially. Because of this she hid her gift, and took on extra challenges on her own, in private. She is a master at Biology and Chemistry, and has also learned Latin.
She hid this part of her life from her friends and dumbed herself down. She became known as the girl to throw great parties, and always being a dream to be with. She also entered a relationship with Jackson, knowing she could need the social boost from it. And as the relationship developed she found herself falling in love with him, something she never intended.
Her facade fell apart after the Winter Formal, where she got attacked by Peter Hale, and was haunted by visions about her attacker. Lydia soon became a member of Scott’s pack through this process, as well as helping them to save Jackson - her at the time boyfriend - from being murdered by hunters for being a wild and uncontrolled Kanima. He eventually died, resurrected, and had to move to London, breaking her heart in the process.
Lydia then closed her heart to love, and only entered a beneficial relationship with Aiden Walker, thinking he was just passing through with the Alpha pack. Lydia ended it when it turned out he was going to stick around, not wanting to be associated with the bad guys like she had previously. Later she also had a close relationship with Jordan Parrish, though they never really became anything official.
Lydia continued to work on her abilities, and to help protect the pack until her memories were shared with Theo, leading Lydia to be sent off to Eichen, being in an conscious trance. While being there Varlack used her to try and find out who the beast really was, while Meredith, a fellow banshee, worker with her in her mind, teaching her to be a banshee.
Her friends eventually saved her, and she was able to better use her abilities, and to help her friends. She even turned to be the one who could save Mason from forever losing his identity to Sebastian, as the beast. She knows she still has a lot to learn, but she is determined to perfect her powers, while still fighting for her friends.
Lydia has a fierce and big personality, and is able to carry it quite well. She is determined and when she puts her mind to something she will do it. She is highly intelligent, arguably out of her entire year, even though she lived several years hiding it. She loves to be social, and to make new friends, however it does take time to truly get under her skin. However once you do, she will be your friend for life. She does anything for those she loves, but be warned, she will put you in place the minute you make a bad decision or fashion choice.
✔ Intelligent, Caring, Determined, Brave
✖ A know-it-all, loud, Snarky
🌙 Scott McCall: Lydia truly loves her Alpha, and enjoys to be around him. They share the same set of values, and they both truly just want to save everyone. She knows Scott has a tendency to forget himself in the process, and is trying to support him the best way that she can. She also tries to be as independent as possible, rarely going to other people for help first, not wanting to be an burden to anyone.
🌙 Stiles Stilinski: For several year, Stiles used to be such a pet-peeve to Lydia. Constantly trying to win her heart. It wasn’t until she started to actually know him that she realized what a good guy he truly was. She had seen him as any other boy in school, making a move on her, but knows now that he truly cares. Lydia loves him so much as a friend that the thought of them being something more scares her, yet she always finds him being the first one that she runs to.
🌙 Allison Argent: Allison has taken the top spot on her friends list. They were the two girls in the pack without any special powers for a while, until Lydia learned to develop hers. They both were great at using their minds and words to find solutions, and would always support each other. They are more open than most friends, after everything that they have been through. Lydia did miss Allison like crazy while she was in Paris to recover from her injury, and is happy to see her back in the halls of Beacon Hills.
