Sheridan Kelly is [[Avery Kelly|Avery's]] older sister and a member of the [[Kelly Family]].

==Personality==
She is combative and lazy<ref>Not just you, Declan has his ADHD diagnosis and Sheridan’s unmotivated but… you keep coming up, and it’s always a question mark.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/11/out-on-a-limb-3-9/ Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.9]]</ref> and doesn't have many friends.<ref>“That’s an unfair set of examples though,” Lucy said.  “Sheridan doesn’t really have friends, so you can’t use her as a measuring stick.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/09/19/leaving-a-mark-4-9/ Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.9]]</ref>

She dislikes the amount of chaos inside the [[Kelly Family|Kelly family]].<ref>“This is hell,” Sheridan said.  “Living with this is hell.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/23/stolen-away-2-5/ Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.5]]</ref>

She is planning on going to university in the future<ref>“Don’t pity me or anything.  I’m not unhappy.  Life’s fine.  It’s just dull and super annoying when you’re whining, or Declan’s being noisy, or Kerry clings.  One more year of classes and then I can apply to a shitty University somewhere, I’ll figure out what I want to do with my life in my freshman year at Uni like mom, dad, Grumble and Gran did, and then my life finally starts.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/23/stolen-away-2-5/ Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.5]]</ref> but she's not interested in school.<ref>“Are there any subjects you like at school?” Verona’s mom asked Sheridan.<br><br>“Nope.  Not a one.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/11/09/playing-a-part-15-4/ Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.4]]</ref>

She enjoys the TV show Blasphemy Girls<ref name=podcast/> and hosts a podcast about it.<ref>“Your sister’s late with her podcast.  Tell her to get on it.”<br><br>“She made an announcement saying she’d be late.  Exams.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/04/crossed-with-silver-19-3/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.3]]</ref>

After learning that magic is real, Sheridan is eager and excited to become a practitioner, in spite of the dangers which were clearly demonstrated by Avery's near-fatal shooting.

===Relationships===
Sheridan often gives [[Avery Kelly|Avery]] a hard time<ref>“You’re too nice about stuff.  It’s why I give you a hard time, try to shake you out of this little rut you’ve dug for yourself.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/23/stolen-away-2-5/ Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.5]]</ref> but was supportive when she learned that Avery was a lesbian,<ref>“I can deal with dad later.  I mean is it a problem with ''you'', that I’m into girls?”<br><br>“No,” Sheridan said.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/29 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.4]]</ref> something that Avery was eternally grateful for.<ref>Sheridan, you had my back when it counted and I can’t tell you what it means to me, or how it changed the idea of what family is in my head.  You get so down on yourself but you’re so so so much better and cooler than you think you are.  You’re clever and funny and cool and the big problem is that you’re smart enough to think of all the reasons why not to or what could go wrong.  Keep being you and take some leaps of faith for my sake, ok?-[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/05/06/11-2-spoilers-just-in-case/ Excerpt] from [[Just in Case]]</ref> When Avery moved to Thunder Bay she was extremely upset she no longer had a room to herself.<ref>“I ''finally'' had a room of my own.  Finally!  I will murder you if it means I get a room of my own.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/10/05/fall-out-14-1/ Excerpt] from [[Fall Out 14.1]]</ref> Avery finds it easy to manipulate her contrary nature.

She's angry at the way [[Declan Kelly|Declan]] has treated [[Amber]].<ref>“Loop me in when it’s time to yell at Declan about being shitty to his female friends.  We should get him when the other members of his group aren’t around.”-[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/02/06 Excerpt] from [[Vanishing Points 8.8]]</ref>

She never forgave [[Lucy]] for inspiring Avery to pour ice water down her top.<ref>“I was thinking about getting a nice tall glass of ice water,” Sheridan said.  “Eh Lucy?  How refreshing would that be?”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/05/04 Excerpt] from [[Dashed to Pieces 11.2]]</ref>

== Appearance==
She is overweight<ref>“My game!  I’ve been playing that for two hours, you ''fat bitch''!”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/23 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.5]]</ref> and has black hair.<ref>Wearing pyjama pants and an oversized shirt even though it wasn’t nighttime yet, running a brush through black hair -the only person in Avery’s family without red hair besides grandpa- Sheridan strode to the stairs, tossing her brush onto the bathroom counter as she passed it.  Sixteen year olds.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/05/19 Excerpt] from [[Lost for Words 1.4]]</ref>

==Abilities==
Is currently learning to drive.<ref>Sheridan wanted their dad to take her for driving lessons.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/06/16/stolen-away-2-3/ Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.3]]</ref>

Had the idea to do a commentary podcast<ref name=podcast>“You were talking about a theory about that show,” Avery said.<br><br>“That show?  Blasphemy Girls.”<br><br>“Yes.  That.  Why not do, like, a video series?  Put it out there?”<br><br>“Engh.”<br><br>“Or a podcast?”<br><br>“It’d be one drop in a sea of commentary.”<br><br>“You watch and listen to ''alll'' that commentary, don’t you?”<br><br>“Pretty much.”<br><br>“So there’s people who want it!”<br><br>“I think with your voice and your wit you’d do a great job on a podcast,” Verona’s mom said.<br><br>Sheridan made a face and looked indecisive, which seemed mostly to come from the fact she couldn’t find a good angle for protest. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/11/09 Excerpt] from [[Playing a Part 15.4]]</ref> which several family members thought she should do.<ref>“If Sheridan wants to bring a boy over to sleep in our room, I vote we let her.  Because you know, first of all, credit for Sheridan being that ballsy, second of all, I’m pretty sure sneaking boys into their rooms is a major story element of that show she loves and it could count as research for that podcast she ''really'' should do…  eh?  Eh?”<br><br>“No.”<br><br>“I was pretty proud I came up with that on the fly like that.  Also, hm, three!  I think a guy that can see how sweet Sheridan is behind that sarcastic, annoying defensive layer she puts up deserves to get to break the rules.  And double the number of birthdays for the rest of his life.  At ''least'' sleepover privileges.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/14 Excerpt] from [[Left in the Dust 16.2]]</ref> <!--“Sheridan, if you’re really thinking about the podcast thing, you could ask Kyle for help with the computer stuff?” Avery’s mom suggested.
Sheridan and Kyle exchanged looks, like neither was wholly impressed with the idea.


https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/02/12/gone-and-done-it-17-6/--> [[Connor Kelly|Conner]] her a gift to get her interested.<ref>“She’s… Sheridan.  But she’s been cool with my friends when they come over, and I think she’s big on the podcast idea.”<br><br>“Going to gift her a little something as she leaves to go back to Thunder Bay.  We’ll see if we can’t urge her to get into something.  I think all she needs is one thing that excites her.  It’s how it was with me.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/03/08 Excerpt] from [[Gone and Done It 17.11]]</ref>

Once the Kerry family learns about magic, Sheridan is awakened as a practitioner, and chooses to become a [[Loser]], possibly because she finds the name to be either amusing, or surprisingly applicable to herself. 

==Chronology==
She almost failed eighth grade, only passing because her mom convinced her teachers to fudge her grades.<ref>I’m talking worse than when you nearly failed eighth grade and I had to talk to the teachers to convince them to fudge the numbers let you pass.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/10/05/fall-out-14-1/ Excerpt] from [[Fall Out 14.1]]</ref>

Avery asked her to investigate what their [[Connor Kelly|dad's]] feelings on Avery being gay were while Avery was away studying at the [[Blue Heron Institute]].<ref>“Hey Ave, did you manage to stop in at home or figure anything out about the situation with your dad?” Lucy asked.<br><br>“Asked Sheridan to put out feelers to dad.”- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/10/27/cutting-class-6-1/ Excerpt] from [[Cutting Class 6.1]]</ref>

When [[Kelsey Kelly|Kelsey]] moved to [[Thunder Bay]] she decided to follow her and was excited to finally get her own room.<ref>“Yeah, the ''opposite'' of that.  Fresh start, kicking ass, new place, new room, and I don’t even care we’re downgrading from house to apartment.  Yes.  Yes, yes, yes.  Awesome.-[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/05/25/dash-to-pieces-11-8/ Excerpt] from [[Dash to Pieces 11.8|Dashed to Pieces 11.8]]</ref>

When [[Liberty Tedd|Liberty]] came to visit Avery she ended up getting fart maced by a [[goblin]].<ref>Sheridan frowned at her, then she scratched Flopsy’s belly lightly.  She lowered her nose to him, and Liberty flipped Flopsy around, butt-up, and gave him a fierce squeeze.<br><br>The fart produced would have been one a very gross adult man would have been proud of.  Right in Sheridan’s face.- [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/12/14/left-in-the-dust-16-2/ Excerpt] from [[Left in the Dust 16.2]]</ref>

She saw [[Avery Kelly|Avery]] traveling from [[Kennet]] to [[Thunder Bay]] on her web cam as well as her opening a door to a Path. Afterwards she started asking questions and Avery eventually told her about magic.<ref>- [[Let Slip 20.c]]</ref>
