Wilma Bishop is a witch of the Isle of Wight Detachment Group, originating from Britannia and originally attached with the Faraway Land Air Force. She is the older sister of Lynette Bishop from the 501st Joint Fighter Wing, and the daughter of the veteran of the First Neuroi War Minnie Bishop. She serves as the squadron's sharpshooter and possesses the ability to control the flight of projectiles to a limited extent. It would also appear she can charge magical energy into the shots to increase their effectiveness. This power, Ballistic Stabilization (弾道安定, Dandō Antei) allow her to affect bullets and other objects thrown in flight. Classified in the Telekinesis lineage. Being the sibling of Lynne, she has the same magic ability as her, albeit, she can use it with much greater prowess. As an air infantryman, she did not have any particularly noteworthy skills. She also has a close relationship with (at the moment) Flight Lieutenant Rudel and Pilot Officer Beurling who were both drinking buddies and her colleagues in the early times of the war. In contrast to her sister, Lynette, she is very active and a vibrant ball of energy. Naturally bright and playful, at home she is not unlike her sister, and loves both making and eating sweets. However, one constant source of worry for her is how the eating part affects her weight. Optimist, open-minded and sacrificed, she has a bad habit of sleeping wrongly in other bedrooms. She is also a little jealous of her sister and has a surprisingly strong will to act. Her breasts' are smaller than Lynette's. Her familiar, like her younger sister Lynette, is the Scottish Fold cat, although unlike Lynette, the characteristic folding ears of the Scottish Fold are only apparent on Wilma. She is likely based on Canadian WWI pilot Billy Bishop's son, Arthur, as Billy Bishop is the pilot archetype for her mother Minnie Bishop.
