Hi! The name's Hay Lin, and if you have time, stop by my family's restaurant the Silver Dragon. I'll see if I can get you a discount your first time there, but my Grandma's strict on who I can give out discounts to. ^^





"What is a best friend? Someone who can't be without you, even if you can be without her. Someone who'll think of you when you're far away...Someone who'll listen until you've told her everything there is! It's someone who puts herself in your place when you're afraid...it's someone you can trust blindly!"

"Tell us that we're ALL your best friends, or else I'll rip off the autograph!" - A slightly PO'd Cornelia Hale ^^;





Name: Hay Lin

Age: 16 years old

Bio:

Before W.I.T.C.H. Before she became a Guardian, Hay Lin worked at her family's restaurant, the Silver Dragon, and went to school. She would goof off in classes quite often and change everyone of her projects into something creative, normally raising the ire of her teachers. One time, she was assigned the task of making a simple kite for a school project. Hay Lin however, chose to make a very fancy Chinese Dragon kite and spent the entire night working on it! Sadly, Hay Lin's teacher failed her before she even got a chance to fly it on the assumption that it wouldn't fly on it's own, and that it was too heavy to lift off the ground. Fortunately for Hay Lin, her connection to the element of Air was established long before she became a Guardian and her kite turned out to be the only one in the class that managed to fly. At the time, Hay Lin didn't know about her connection to the element of Air; that became fact a few days after she met Will Vandom.






The Formation of W.I.T.C.H. Due to her mind being influenced by her grandmother Yan Lin, Hay Lin invited Taranee, Cornelia, Irma and Will-who had been the new girl in school at the time-over for tea and cookies after school. Once there, the girls learned about the Heart, their elemental powers and Meridian. Nothing specific had been mentioned about Kandrakar at the time. The Heart was then entrusted to Will, and due to their newfound connection with Will, Hay Lin and the girls soon became fast friends with her.

Hay Lin has power over air, hence her title as the Guardian of Air. She can create and manipulate the aspects of wind and the air. She can also levitate objects using her elemental power. (In the comic book W.I.T.C.H, Hay Lin is the only member of the group who can fly; she can temporarily give the others the ability to fly.) The Guardians can all fly, but Hay Lin can fly the highest and the quickest among the others. Hay Lin also shows the ability to control the temperature of the air around her, and uses this power often to freeze enemies.

Following the lowering of the Veil around Meridian when they had helped the rebels bring down Phobos and restore their friend Elyon to her rightful place on the throne, the Guardians' powers were given a major boost. As a result of this, Hay Lin can now recall people's memories by listening to their favorite music and learn the history of an object by not only the sound it makes, but also by touching it and closing her eyes. When she does this, she is feeling the atmospheres the object was in and how it was touched. Hay Lin is the only Guardian who can become invisible and make other things invisible. (In the comic book, all the Guardians can become invisible; Will was the first one to find out how.) Hay Lin can hear sounds, noises and voices from great distances, explaining that this is because sound vibrations travel through air. Hay Lin has a greater power of empathic precognition than the other Guardians. She used to get dreams prior to Elyon's coronation in which she was Elyon and sat on a throne, the same throne in which Phobos later used to drain Elyon's powers.



"...Her heart is so giving, and it accepts so many people; they cannot help but fall for her despite their own feelings...lost, helpless, and she still reaches for them!"

Hay Lin's Personality: Hay Lin attempts to see the positive in everything and often acts as a peacemaker if other members of the group disagree. She is a very impulsive, strong minded and feisty girl who is likely to crash into any situation without thinking of the physical risk. She's always cheerful, full of energy and very optimistic. She does get angry, as shown in the Season 2 episode 'R' is for Relentless when her Grandmother was targeted by Nerissa as the final member of the former Guardians who hadn't been abducted.

She's an extremely creative person who loves to draw, paint and sketch. Her favorite subject in school is art. She's possibly considered a comic book/alien nerd at heart because of her love to collect comic books and alien collectables. She enjoys just about anything related to science fiction, air or art. She isn't superb at Physical Education sadly, which was confirmed when she said she needs to get into shape after running.

Hay Lin also has a habit of writing people's names, dates, numbers and anything else that might come in handy on the back of her hand or arm so she won't forget anything important during one of her creative brainstorms. She has a crush on Eric Lyndon, who likes her just as much.


(Referring to the map Yan Lin just gave her)

Hay Lin: But why wait until now to give me this? Is it because my powers are finally mature enough that I'm worthy?

Yan Lin: Nah, it was in the attic. I couldn't find it. Found my old tennis racquet too. Fore!
