Who is Giselle Villard?

Giselle Villard's homeworld was called Ciress, and she grew up there with her sister Genevieve , who was a member of one of the Seven Guilds of Magic. On Ciress, magic dominated every aspect of life. The planet was a magnet for cosmic energy due to its position in the galaxy, and this accounted for the vast amount of magic that was performed on Ciress. There were seven Magic Guilds that ruled Ciress, and each Guild controlled a different aspect of magic. The Seven Magic Guilds were the Dark Magi, Astral, Shaman, Enchantress, Tantric, Djinn, and Nouveau, with each being led by a powerful Guild Master . Of the two Villard sisters, Genevieve was the one who was gifted with great magical talent, while Giselle was merely considered to be her socialite sister who would rather party than study the magical arts. Once Genevieve reached adulthood, she was to become Master of the Nouveau Guild via a magic ritual. Giselle was meant to be merely a spectator at the ritual, but once it commenced, unexpected things began to happen.
