Holly Munro

"'And Lucy' - Lockwood gave me his biggest smile - 'let me introduce you to Holly Munro. Our new secretary. - Lockwood (The Hollow Boy)"Holly Munro is the first additional character to be added to the main cast as of The Hollow Boy''. She currently works at Lockwood & Co as an assistant. Most notably she is the first canonical person of colour in the series.

Physical Appearance

 * "'Between them, sitting in my chair, was a shapely, dark-skinned girl. She had black hair worn long at the shoulder, a pretty, roundish face, and a kind of dark-blue pinafore dress with a nice white top underneath it. She looked very new and shiny, like someone had popped her out of a plastic case that morning.' - Lucy Carlyle's initial introduction of Holly Munro, The Hollow Boy."

Munro has a round face and wears her black hair at shoulder length, she is one of the first dark skinned characters to appear in the series. Until this point no minorities have been mentioned in England. Munro most often appears wearing well cleaned skirts and blouses. When working as an agent she borrows her clothes from around the Agency.

Personality
Holly is pedantic and exact. Upon gaining employment at Lockwood & Co she demonstrates her desire for cleanliness by reorganizing the entirety of 35 Portland Row. This is also shown by her "immaculate" and "glossy" appearance. She is often found to have gone into the bedrooms to clean and fold clothes, much to Lucy's annoyance. Munro also reorganizes the Agency's supplies, bringing their equipment and stock up to DEPRAC standards. At the beginning of employment Munro has minimum contact within the field, instead completing the backlog of desk work for Lockwood & Co. Munro is charismatic and cheerful towards her peers. She is however revealed to have later found Lucy's behaviour patronizing.

Time at Rotwell's
Before working for Lockwood & Co, Munro was employed at Rotwell Agency. Initially a field operative, she worked in a team of 4 before a poltergeist killed her peers. Much like Lucy, Munro was the soul survivor of an incident that otherwise killed the entirety of her team.

After this incident, Munro worked doing desk work for the Agency. Initially supposed to return to the field, Munro found herself unwilling to go back and remained at her desk job. After a disagreement with a superior Munro left the Agency.

 * Interestingly Lucy often refers to Holly as "Ms. Munro" rather than "miss".
 * Munro is hinted to have complimented Lucy when she isn't around, suggesting she does not share Lucy's initially cold feelings.
