Minerva Weaver

Minerva Weaver is the tritagonist of the Carl Cooper: Secrets of the Magic World comics and series. She is the eldest daughter of Loki and Juno Weaver, older sister of Venus and Diana, maternal aunt to Carl and Sarah Cooper and the Sage of Light of her generation.

As the legal guardian of the Cooper siblings, she is also the head of Weaver House and a physician at St. Olga's Hospital for Magical Maladies. Her age changes depending on the season/story arc, with her age range being in her thirties/forties throughout the series.

Physical Appearance
Minerva is tall, thin and fair-skinned, with long, wavy fiery red hair, green eyes, a long, pointed nose and a pair of green-framed glasses, which she wears to help with her poor eyesight. She wears several outfits throughout the series, but her signature one is a sea green polo shirt, dark blue jeans, white socks and white shoes. When she is at work, she wears a white doctor's coat and her doctor's instruments with her outfits.

For sleepwear, she wears a long lakefoam green bathrobe with a pair of matching slippers. Notably, when she is asleep, she does not wear her glasses as she takes them off for the night.

Personality
Minerva is the legal guardian of Carl and Sarah after Diana left them at Weaver House, and raises them like the children she never had. Her dynamic with her nephew and niece is more maternal compared to Venus's sisterly dynamic, as she constantly reminds them to use their magic wisely. She is the aunt who works, so she is often busy with her medical and elemental studies and leaves most child care to her little sister Venus.

Powers and Abilities
As a witch, Minerva is able to use magic to accomplish a multitude of purposes. She showed an aptitude for Potions, Herbology and Defense Against the Dark Arts in school, and one for medical magic in med school. Being she is the Sage of Light, her main elements are sun and light. According to Carl, Minerva is able to mend broken bones in seconds, but having to regrow them is a nasty business.

While Minerva is mostly responsible with her magic, she is known to use it for nonsense at times, just like her sister Venus.

Trivia

 * Like most of her family, she is right-handed.
 * Minerva is unable to see without her glasses, so when she loses them, she feels around for them.
 * She is named after the Greek goddess of wisdom Athena, under her Roman name Minerva. This fits in with her wisdom and intelligence.
 * Her US actress, Wendie Malick, has played many live-action and animated roles, most notably Eda Clawthorn from The Owl House. Her UK actress Kate Harbour, meanwhile, is known for voicing Wendy and Dizzy in the UK version of the original Bob the Builder.
