Callis of Netherwood

"She couldn't help loving those who others didn't"

- Reaper on Callis

Callis is Agatha's adopted mother, and Reaper's owner.

History
Callis started off as a teacher of Uglification in The School for Evil. She was recalled as beautiful, a rare thing for the professors in the School of Evil, until Sophie of Woods Beyond came. The School Master tried to convince her to wed him, thinking that she was the one to make Evil rule over Good. But his plan was foiled, just before Callis saw the black swirls in his golden ring, black swan's gold. She then fled and found Reaper, and escaped to Gavaldon. There Callis meets Vanessa, vying for Stefan's love and adoration. She decided this would be her last witchcraft, as she cast a spell to make Stefan fall in love with her, and have four children with her. Two of them were boys, both born dead. The third and fourth were Sophie and Agatha. Vanessa abandoned Agatha, thinking she was ugly and vile, and took Sophie away to Stefan. But Callis didn't want a innocent baby to die in the woods, so she made her self like Agatha, making her hair black, turning her eyes to be bug like. But Stefan found out and the Elders sentenced her to be burned, before Stefan had a change of heart and saved her, banishing her to the graveyards.

Death
Callis is killed in book three, The Last Ever After, by a mob of people, sacrificing herself to save Agatha and Tedros.
