Description
A new reference sheet for Priscilla as she appears in my short story fanfic, “Mirror Mirror”. Because I love drawing Civil War stuff XD
Name: Priscilla Spainhower
Born: November 22, 1823; Sumner County, Tennessee
Died: June 3, 1867; Worthington, Indiana (age 43)
Occupation: Civil rights activist
Allegiance: Assassins
Bio: Priscilla Abbott was born to a small farming family in the Tennessee frontier in 1823. However, financial opportunities prompted her family to move northward to Point Commerce, Indiana circa 1830. Settling down in their new home rather well, Priscilla quickly found good neighborhood friends and lived a happy life helping her family work on the farm. However, things became financially stressful for the Abbotts during the presidential campaign of Andrew Jackson. Jackson's infamous war against the Bank made life rather difficult for several families across the nation, especially when the Panic of 1837 hit years later. Priscilla helped her family struggle onwards through it all, doing what she could wherever she was able. And then around 1833, she met Aveza Bellamy.
Priscilla’s parents had contacted Aveza when things in Indiana got really desperate. Priscilla was sat down with the three and was told several secrets about the world, and herself. Aveza was an Assassin, as were Priscilla’s parents. They revealed to her that the Abbotts had been in the Brotherhood ever since her grandfather, Jack, had been recruited by Connor during the American Revolution. Priscilla also learned that Jackson and his followers were Templars, seeking to gain ultimate power no matter the cost. All the financial problems crippling the United States was because of their plots. Hearing this, Priscilla jumped at the chance to join the Assassins, and Aveza happily took her on as an apprentice.
Priscilla worked as hard as she could over the years to be a defender of liberty just as her mentor and parents had been. She helped Aveza influence the reform movements that began to spring up over the years, advocating for the rights of workers and women and slaves alike. She also worked to take down the reign of Jackson and his accolades. Life slowly began to improve by the early 1840s, with Jackson leaving office in 1837 and the Assassins slowly undoing the damage he caused.
Priscilla herself was able to start a family. She met a dashing man named Abraham Spainhower, an Assassin informant working as a grand master of a local freemason lodge. The two fell in love and eventually got married in a little log cabin in Point Commerce on May 5, 1842. They established their home in a house just over the hill toward the river on the old Ferry Road, and there they had their first child, James, on November 8, 1843. They would go on to have nine other children throughout their lives, some of which tragically did not make it to adulthood. Aveza came to visit her in June of 1845, giving her the key to a Precursor Temple and assigning her to guard it with her life.
In 1848, the family moved across Eel River to Worthington, Indiana where they lived in a large frame house. Priscilla continued her advocacy for the rights of America's minorities throughout the next two decades, despite the struggle getting more and more difficult and more and more violent as time went on. When the Civil War broke out, her son James, a man with the same pride in his Assassin heritage that his mother had, enlisted in the Union army to fight the Confederate Templars and free the slaves. After years of heroics in the war, he was discharged on January 13, 1866, and he returned home to find Priscilla in failing health. Priscilla passed away in 1867, and it was a tragedy to all; to her husband, to her children, and to her mentor Aveza. However, she left a proud legacy that while forgotten in history books would continue to inspire several Assassins for years afterwards.

She looks great.
Remember Timeline 191?
How do you think she would react to...
General Lee forces McClellan into a battle on the banks of the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania and destroys the Army of the Potomac in the Battle of Camp Hill. (Special Order 191 never lost.)
Army of Northern Virginia occupy Philadelphia.
Confederate States of America earn diplomatic recognition from the United Kingdom and France.
Confederate general Braxton Bragg completes the conquest of Kentucky.
The pro-Confederate Five Civilized Tribes of the Indian Territory receive territory of their own in the C.S.A., later to become the State of Sequoyah.
The Democratic Party Horatio Seymour defeats Lincoln and his vice-presidential candidate Hannibal Hamlin in the 1864 election in a landslide.
In reaction to the (historical) Sioux uprising of 1862, the US Army conducts a war of extermination against them. Prior to the Great War, Dakota Territory enters the Union as a single state.
(And then she dies in 1867.)

Well I doubt she'd be very happy about all that XD Her focus was mainly on Indiana by the time the Civil War came around though. She'd probably be more worried for her son, who would be assigned to go out and try and combat all these things and the Templars running the Confederacy.

Should be lucky she died in 1867. McCride would have a much harder time. (If you know what I mean-Second Mexican War.)
