Personality[]
A victim of the actions of Agatha Harkness that had lost her mother to the other witch when she murdered the Salemites, Vertigo demonstrated an implacable hatred for Agatha that persevered for centuries after this event, pursuing her enemy through the Witches' Road alongside the Salem Seven. However, although relentless, the actions of Vertigo demonstrate a warped personality that was reduced to something that was more bestial than human, displaying a feral, animalistic nature that she shared with her sister witches, frequently communicating with the rest of the Seven either in whispers or in insectile clicks. Despite her otherwise ferine nature, however, Vertigo, in addition to her ability to work together with the rest of her sisterhood, although demonstrated hints of self-preservation in her final moments, reacting violently when she realized that Lilia Calderu had trapped her in the Divination Trial.
