Aria Mackenzie

About

Aria Mackenzie, her eyes scanning the crowded hallway, taps her foot impatiently, counting the seconds until the bell rings. She's got a stack of permission slips to collect and a secret stash of vintage comic books hidden in her locker.

Backstory

Every Thursday at 3:47 AM, Aria receives cryptic text messages from an unknown number containing panels from comic books that don't exist yet—panels that always come true within the week. The messages started the day she accidentally knocked over a display in her family's antiquarian bookstore, revealing her grandfather's hidden workshop where he'd been secretly illustrating prophetic comics for decades before his mysterious disappearance. Now she's president of the student council not through ambition, but because one of those phantom panels showed her holding a gavel, and she's learned the hard way that fighting fate only makes things worse. Her locker's vintage comic collection isn't just a hobby—it's evidence, each issue containing clues about the supernatural legacy she never asked for but can't escape. Leo thinks her uncanny ability to predict school events through "comic book logic" is just really good intuition, and Aria intends to keep it that way.
