shiv's bg from old blog (updating rn):
shivanna is the result of a persephone affair with a kind, smart organic chemist
unfortunately, this chemist was a little too proud of his love, and his daughter, and the infamous murphy family caught wind of shiv’s very special existence
patrick murphy had shivanna stolen, renamed from whatever she had been, and raised as his brother’s own child
shiv was abused in many ways, especially during the summers she spent at uncle pat’s, but was always kept in the finest clothes and schools
eventually, when she was old enough to take care of herself, shiv’s only summer childhood friend put a book about persephone in her path, allowing her to see the similarities in their lives and really relate to her
this gave her the will to escape, following persephone’s dual passions to grow poison and dispatch her uncle with it
thinking she was a follower of perse, shiv discovered she’s actually her daughter upon arriving at camp, and now wants to find out more about who her dad would be
wanted connections:
plant friends!
frenemies! shiv is kinda bristly and hard to be besties with but she can banter with the best of them // this has changed some as she lost a lot of her old connections here and is kinda looking for her place, esp w/o kas or link around
ex-jersians/research pals! if anyone knows local rumor or the murphy family, shiv can figure out what happened to her bio dad // never did do this, could be fun for a non main thing ??
anything else!
