"Trick or treat~? Sorry... I get the treats, and you get the tricks~"
One-half pumpkin plantgirl and one-half autumnal Halloween spirit, Lilias spends most of her time either celebrating or anticipating Halloween. A relatively young spirit, Lilias represents the newer facets of the holiday... mainly the mischief, decorations and candy-devouring... as opposed to the older harvest festival beginnings that the holiday originally sprang from.
Of course, her tendency to force-feed people 'pumpkin pudding', turn them into candy, or swallow them whole and kicking into her horrid pumpkiny guts means that she takes 'tricks' a little further than the folks who just TP your house or egg your windshield~
---Powers/Abilities---
Unsurprisingly, the great majority of Lilias' powers are based solely around Halloween itself. Her abilities are available year-round, but they become particularly potent during October proper, as one might expect. Many of her abilities involve making the mundane into something dangerous... whether it be man-eating pumpkins, animate candy or living Halloween decor. She can control the growth of plants, but this is generally limited to the aforementioned pumpkins, as well as creeper vines and terrifying crooked haunted house-style trees.
Traditionally, Lilias will find an empty lot or abandoned house and corrupt it into a home for herself, engulfing the original structure (or lack thereof) with enormous jack-o-lanterns and pumpkins, long winding vines, and all sorts of Halloween decorations. If there's no house present, she'll generally turn a gigantic pumpkin into her house.
The lot she takes over turns into her base of operations for the season, and is generally quite dangerous, as even when Lilias herself (or her minions, more on them in a moment) are absent, visitors can still be captured and devoured by one of the big pumpkins on the property.
Lilias has three 'helpers' (an affectionate term for little summoned minions) that she keeps around during Halloween... a living blob of pink taffy/jelly named Gumi, a fat cartoony purple bat named Waza, and a gigantic dopey jack-o-lantern named Kuchi. All three of her admittedly goofy minions can nontheless be used for devouring folks... Waza and Kuchi swallow folks whole, while Gumi more or less blobvores them (though he can morph into whatever he needs to morph into to complete the illusion).
Lilias is relatively easy to encounter, though she's more easily found the closer you are to Halloween. Obviously, if one sees a gigantic tangle of vines and pumpkins around a previously abandoned house or lot, they should go investigate! Halloween stores are also popular haunts of hers, and anyone who owns one is generally safe from being devoured (and given free samples of her own rather epic designs, as well.) Of course, when it comes right down to it, she loves eating folks at Halloween parties, and she herself loves to trick or treat, which is where most folks encounter her~ If you don't have some pretty excellent candy at your house, you may just get a trick when she and her minions roll up to your door~
