Gwen was born into the Coven of Lywellen over 100 years ago and was a young and promising Healer when she was kidnapped at 19 by the Oath Breaker Sestra Darkmoon.

Sestra was seeking to make pact with dark forces and took Gwen as a sacrifice to unknown gods or demons only to have her plans go awry and end in her ultimate destruction.

The oath breaker held Gwen and several others of different species in a dungeon beneath her hidden temple using them to tempt the dark ones to grant her the secrets of forbidden spells. She used their blood to draw circles of power and her prized captive for these blood rites was the Born Vampire Vesual Larkesh son of one of the most powerful vampires on Erellon.

It was while in the dungeon that Gwen made friends with Vesual chatting with him in an effort keep his spirit up as he was abused by Sestra over a period of eleven nights. Then on the twelfth night Sestra's followers came and began using the mingled blood of fae, pixie, lycan and Vesual's to paint sigil an glyph over every inch of her body. They had planned that night to offer her as a meal to on of the dark ones when they were interrupted and left her alone and tied to the rack they'd used to extract blood from the others.

In their haste the servants of Sestra had not made sure Gwen's restraints were tight enough to hold her. Taking advantage of her fortune Gwen worked a hand free then released the other restraints that held her. Free she knew that she needed the other prisoner's help if they were to escape so one by one she released them.

Chance being a fickle friend meant that she came to Vesual's cell last. Gwen could hear the others already fighting the servants and possibly Sestra herself which caused her to open the Vampire's cell without thinking. She stepped inside calling out to Vesual only remembering as he seized her that he was starving and she was covered in blood.

Gwen was powerless to stop what happened and Vasual too crazed by thirst to think of what he was doing. He drained Gwen to the edge of death before he came to his senses and had only one choice to save her and that was to make of her a Vampire.

Vasual left Gwen alone after having her drink of his blood and went off to help in the fight against Sestra where he found out that the evil witch was under attack by the coven of Lywellen who'd traced Gwen using magic that broke through the concealing wards. The battle was very short once the Vampire joined his power to the power of fifteen angry witches and the other prisoners.

When all was over Vasual ran back to Gwen's side to care for her certain that her family would never approve or forgive what happened. He was surprised to find a short time later that her family had known for three days that they wouldn't find Gwen alive and were thankful that at least she still existed.

Gwen was given in adoption to the family Larkesh by the coven of Lywellen to be taught what it was to be a vampire. She flourished in her new family with Vasual as. Her mentor and elder brother learning quickly to control her new nature and the powers it conferred on her.

Gwen still worked on her skills as a healer though admittedly few would chose or think of a vampire as a healer.
