Description:

She grew up in Rockfield, the last town to be attacked by the original Bone Girl. She pretended to hate and fear this legendary monster that was terrorizing their continent, but secretly admired and envied her. As Melissa, the Bone Girl noticed that when she was alone she seemed thrilled by the murders rather than repulsed by them. When the Bone Girl decided to die, she kidnapped Farica and asked her to become the new Bone Girl so that the legend could live on. Farica agreed before the Bone Girl could even point out that she would be killed if she seemed she might put the Bone Girl at risk. Melissa trained her to become the new Bone Girl, oversaw her make her own dress of bones and her own set of knives, and put her through a gauntlet of tests to ensure she was ready to become the monster. These tests included killing Tina, who Melissa had framed for Farica's early murders, and killing her own family one at a time. When Melissa committed suicide, Farica honored her last wishes by arranging her death to look like a Bone Girl kill and carving her last words into her femur: "The Bone Girl will live forever!"

Farica's personality is vain and deadly. She wants the glory of being the monster everyone fears and the anonymity of being almost a myth. She had always had a predisposition for murder, but without Melissa she likely never would have acted on it. She cares for nobody but herself but enjoys toying with the people around her. She enjoys their pain, their deaths, and their ignorance.
