Penelope Slade

Penelope "Pen" Slade (b. August 2001) is a Seeker who has lived most of her life within the walls of Auldhouse. Because her parents abandoned her when she was a baby, Penelope has always viewed the Elwood family as her surrogate family.

Physical appearance
Penelope is a tall, lithe girl with wild blonde hair and dark brown eyes. She dresses almost entirely in black, preferring combat boots and leather jackets.

Etymology
Penelope is possibly derived from Greek "penelops", a type of duck. Alternatively, it could be derived from "pene", meaning "threads, weft", and "ops", meaning "face, eye".

Slade is a surname of Saxon origin, meaning, variously at different times in different dialects, "a valley, dell, or dingle; an open space between banks or woods; a forest glade; a strip of greensward or of boggy land; the side or slope of a hill."
