Take a first look at Clary Fray played by actress Lily Collins:
Nope, Clary's palm is not smudged by dirt or something. It is the very first rune she has drawn on herself. These magical symbols serve as protective talismans against hostile paranormal creatures.
"Clary has the ability to both create new symbols and make runes that are stronger than other people's. In this scene, she is fending off an enemy with the first rune that she’s ever drawn on herself at the amazement of the other Shadowhunters," Clare said.

Oh right, she's normal until... through an unexpected event she discovered that she is actually a descendant of Shadowhunters, half-angel warriors fated to protect the world from demons.
Not sure whether her mother still lives or not after her disappearance, she ventured to join a group of Shadowhunters, bringing her to a dangerous alternate world called Downworld. Will she survive in this dangerous version of New York, knowing it's filled with warlocks, vampires, demons and werewolves just hiding in plain site?
