⋗ APPEARANCE
“What? Don't look for taste in clothes here son, im happy when they dont fall off.”
Usually wearing one of his company jackets jeans and a loose-fitting check shirt, Convel is unassuming to look at, except for when hes at his business and can be seen barking out orders quickly and with confidence. Few would assume that the man was, in fact, a werewolf. Sporting a strong upper body with the strength to bench press a sequoia.
⋗ PERSONALITY
“Im not that hard to figure out, am i?”
Convel is a loyal and dependable friend and a ferocious and belligerent enemy. Down at the logging park, he expects what he said to be done, and done to the fullest extent of someone's ability. A master of gauging someone's abilities from a cursory look over, this old wolf has seen his fair share of enemies, and tasted a few aswell. In wolf form, he knows the scents of a hundred different prey and even things like rubber and plastic. Make no mistake however, in werewolf form even an old alpha can still pack enough punch to cave in a skull. When it comes to those who are friends, he treats them as part of his pack, as family and close blood, he'd do anything to see them smile. As such hes sort of the big daddy of the pack and the trusted advisor to the alpha, who he's too old to threaten.
⋗ SKILLS
"When the smell of the prey gets up your nose... y'know... it keeps me young"
Hunting - Convel hunts for dinner most days, even when in human form he can be seen triumphantly bringing home the kill to his house. He also has great hearing for a human, able to pick out the individual footsteps of prey in the forest. Hes capable of hunting with a rifle or in wolf form.
Business - Convel runs a logging crew and sawmill, one of the few in the area. The wood is then taken to the sawmill and cut for shipping to one of the inner city's furniture factories like ikea.
Sizing up - From a single glance he can size up an individual's ability, this helps him at work choosing chainsaw operators. When he barks out an order, he expects it to be done.
⋗ HISTORY
“My family’s been here since the beginning, your looking at a 6th generation American.”
Convel is American of Sweedish extraction. In 1995 Convel started the Convel Logging Group, a team for cutting and hauling some of the trees for use in the furniture industry. At the time it was heralded as one of the first environmentally friendly logging operations in North America, they planted more trees than they cut down. A strong believer in his country and the promise of a better world Convel has made his fortune off of the back of cutting down dying or dead trees and planting ten more to take its place. The Logging group features humans but few would suspect how many werewolves there are. Providing a stable career and plenty of fresh air for his pack to do as they please out in the woods. He is also one of the few that knows the location of The Scratching Post.
The Scratching Post
An old ww2 military base sat abandoned in the lonely neck of the woods. Having been told about its location by his father, who himself was a world war two veteran and member of the secret Dog Soldiers company. The Scratching Post features a crumbling set of ammunition bunkers complete with a broken down willies jeep and a stockade of lost and forgotten M14 rifles. It is used as a place for the werewolves to meet and conduct ceremonies to gaia the god of nature.

Appearance Details
Cain looks nothing like anyone else in his family. For starters, he is substantially taller than all of them, at a comfortable 6'4 with a lean build. His face is more angular as well. Actually, he has quite pretty, feminine facial features, though they're partially covered by the mess that is his hair. Cain is a natural blond, but his hair is dyed dark blue. Neither colour stops him from standing out. His eyes are pink, which he makes no effort to cover up. Everyone just assumes they're not natural anyway.
If there's anything he shares with the other Freys, it's the ridiculous amount of jewellery he wears. A lot of it isn't visible underneath his clothes, but it's there. The most noticeable of them is all of the piercings he has. Interestingly, he doesn't have any other than on his ears. Cain's style is not very refined. He wears the same jacket to just about everywhere, regardless of the weather, and he has the ability to make everything he wears look like it's older than he is.

Personality Traits
Cain gives off a certain aura. Tall, rough guy with an attitude and enough edge to cut vegetables with. He acts like it too, until you've been talking to him for longer than ten minutes. At that point, he gives up on whatever kind of guise he has.
He's very talkative to the point of being obnoxious to some. He can just talk for a very long time about nothing. The way Cain is feeling shows plainly in the way he talks and on his face. He's perfectly friendly and outgoing, though sometimes it seems he lacks the social awareness and comes off a little differently. He does like to tease, but rarely in a mean spirited way.
Cain seems like the kind of person who would be stubborn, however he's anything but. Simply put, he's a pushover. Maybe he'll say no at first, but if you don't mind pushing a little there's quite a lot he'll do for you. Or you can just use the right threats. He's just doesn't want to know what would happen if he said no - he's afraid of people leaving him, and can be quite clingy as a result.

Skills
► He's a werewolf. He's strong, agile, the whole lot.
► Good at playing the piano. It's probably his only hobby.
► Great at his job - the bit that doesn't need him to be a witch.
► Able to reach the top shelf, something other Freys can only dream of.

Weaknesses

► Consequences? What are those?
► Weak-willed, he'll do nearly anything if you ask well enough.

History
"Have you met my children, mother? Aren't they cute?"
"Children? Mara, what are you on about?"
"This one looks just like me, doesn't it? But not this one."
"These aren't yours. Who are they? Where are they from?"
"Maybe I should dye my hair..."
"Mara! Listen to me! What have you done!"
Cain isn't a Frey by blood. He's not sure when or where they got him from, because he doesn't remember much from his early childhood. He could probably make a decent estimate if he thought about it enough. Which he doesn't. Everyone he asks about his origins gives him a different answer. Truly, it's infuriating.
It would be hard to convince him he shared any DNA with the Freys - a blond werewolf in a family filled with tiny witches doesn't add up at all. He's not alone in being adopted, but even his younger 'brother', Abel, is more like everyone else. Short, blessed with dark hair and the pale shape of a moon on his hand. It's just so clear that Cain is different, and he gets treated like it too by his family.
He also works at his aunt's florist. As far as actually working with plants goes, he's pretty passionate about it. Even then, it's Esther who will be inheriting the business. Sometimes life doesn't go the way you want it to. Sometimes you realise that it never will.
It's best to just give up on your ambitions.

Sexuality
She really doesn’t have time to spend figuring out something so unimportant
Relationship Status
Single
Species
Born Vampire
Appearance Details
Irina is tall for a woman at 5’7” with a lithe figure possessing more strength than meets the eye. Usually stone-faced or scowling, she shares the same hair, skin and eye colour as her brothers, with the exception that she can often be seen with her eyes coloured gold with bloodlust. She is the very embodiment of “serious”, standing rigidly straight and moving with purpose. She cuts a surprisingly imposing figure in her Black Thorn Commander’s uniform, ironically coloured white to identify her as commander rather than a regular officer. She hasn’t worn a skirt since 1600 and doesn’t intend to, wearing only clothes she could fight in and preferring the sharp cut of her uniform. She does, however, have a soft spot for dark lipstick and eyeliner.
Personality Traits
In a word, Irina is intense, and the first thing many people notice about her is a piercing, judgemental gaze that seems to go right through you. That is accurate to her personality as well: she sizes up everyone she sees, gauging their strengths and weaknesses. Rigid, blunt, cold, and ruthless, she fulfills the stereotype of a military commander to a T. She speaks quickly and concisely and only wants to hear you talk long enough to get the information she needs, having no patience for pretty words or idle chatter. Mercy isn’t a word in her vocabulary and she takes her duty deadly seriously, and God help anyone who stands in her way.
Skills
- Excellent memory.
- Martial Expert: Irina has been training tirelessly ever since she could hold a weapon in every combat form she could find, and is adept with pretty much anything that can be used to inflict harm, both modern and archaic. Her personal preference, however, is fencing.
- Bloodlust: Centuries of discipline have allowed Irina to trigger her bloodlust on command, and control herself under its effect in order to use the enhanced physical prowess it provides to her advantage in combat. To facilitate this, she consumes as little blood as she can stand, fasting so that she is always just on the edge of bloodlust. She triggers it by biting her tongue.
- Strategist: Self explanatory; Irina is a talented strategist and tactician when it comes to combat missions.
- Rider: Irina is a skilled equestrian, able to wield various weapons while mounted. Now that horseback riding has become largely obsolete, she’s also become a skilled driver of various vehicles, both on- and off-road.
- All the physical prowess that comes with being a born vampire
Weaknesses
- Tactless: Irina never could wrap her head around the art of conversation, and thus has stopped trying. She’s blunt to the point of rudeness and would be a huge liability in negotiation.
- Restless: Irina gets itchy when she’s in one place for too long, and has a tendency to work herself too hard, outright resenting rest.
- Paranoid: Irina never feels comfortable without her back against the wall, and is always on the lookout for threats even when none should be present.
- Temper: Irina’s temper is quick and hot, and God help anyone in its path. Unfortunately, this can make her vulnerable to goading.
- Especially vulnerable to her twin’s bullshit; he knows where all her buttons are and precisely how to push them.
History
Born alongside her twin Mikhail a few decades prior to the King’s command, Irina doesn’t remember much about the days before the Black Iris segregated itself from humans. With Dmitri centuries older than her and occupied in his duties as heir, and Mikhail entirely insufferable, Irina looked to her militant father for companionship. With his guidance, she turned her temper into something constructive, and put her determined, discipline-hungry mind to good use by learning combat. From the moment she picked up a bow as a child, she fell in love with the art of battle, learning to wield any weapon she could get her hands on and finding a particular friend in the rapier.
As she grew older, her potential grew clearer and clearer to her father, and soon he allowed her to join the Society’s armed force, the Black Thorn. Her capability was quickly proven and her skill shone among her peers, and she rose through the ranks quickly, eventually taking her place at her father’s side as Commander of the Thorn. As Commander, she controls the Thorn and directly commands its most elite forces. While the bulk of the Thorn investigates and tries law-breakers within the Black Iris, Irina and her highest officers take on the most dangerous threats, be they powerful Black Iris members or human Hunters getting a little too close.

Appearance Details
Being on the taller end of the spectrum, Elias stands at height 6'0" and weighs in at around 180 lbs. of solid muscle. He has a rather sturdy physique garnered from an active lifestyle and the amount of exercise that he does in his downtime. His hair is made up of short inky black locks that are styled in what can be described in a messy faux-hawk trailing middle of his head with the sides being a faded buzz. Below equally dark brows sit a pair of watchful cognac-brown eyes. His nose is more roman being slightly crooked most likely from being broken in the past. A few days worth of facial hair lines his jaws and chin. A various number of lightly colored scars are scattered here and there contrasting against his tanned skin the most commonly noticed is a small scar that runs through his left brow. Among the scars are a few tattoos scattered here and there, the one that carries the most weight is Lucia's baby footprint and birth-date tatted in numeric numbers over his heart. Elias can usually be seen dressed in old jeans, form fitting tank top tattered leather jacket,and equally ragged combat boots.

Reliable, passionate, devoted, daring, and just a tad bit impulsive. To put things simply Elias is a guard dog. Protective of those he actually cares for and a real thorn in the side for those he does not. His mouth has gotten him into more trouble than he ever cares to admit and his quarrelsome tendencies do not help much either. Despite his hot-headed tendencies, Elias is generally a laid back individual.He rather enjoys the company of others- craves it even. Though when he wishes to be alone then he wishes to be completely alone. His biggest downfall would have to be his actions are mostly based on his emotions. When it comes to thinking before acting he flounders. Often letting his emotions get the better of him at that moment and then regretting it later.

History
As a teen, Elias found himself rolling with a rough crowd. A life of gangs, thefts, and violence. It was in this same group that he met Melina. The couple dated on and off and it wasn't until they became pregnant did things change. With a baby on the way, it was then that Elias decided to clean up his life, the same couldn't be said for Melina. A few months after the baby was born, Melina left. Life as a young single father was hard but, they somehow always seem to manage.
Elias found himself taking whatever work he could to support his daughter and aging father. Even going as far as participating in less then legal jobs on the side. If it meant his family would be taken care it didn't matter. The small family though living from income to income, and just getting by was still a happy one. As the years passed all seemed to be going well. Lucia was doing well in school, his father's health seemed to be improving. However, the normality wouldn't last. Upon returning home one late night after a shift at his second job, Elias discovered the door to his home had been kicked in. Fearing the worst he rushed inside only to discover it was already too late. A starved inexperienced turned vampire had killed them. A fact that Elias wouldn't find out until his decent into the world of hunting. After five years of solo hunting Elias, made bit of name for himself. Angry, lost, and with a deep seeded hatred for all supernatural, he readily agreed to join the Council when approached and has been with them since.

Gender
Female
Sexuality
If you're into killing supernaturals she might give you a chance.
Relationship Status
Married to the job.
Species
Human
Appearance Details
Standing at around five feet and nine inches, Lucrezia is an imposing woman whose anger and irritation is constantly on display. Her sullen, mismatched eyes are either glaring at someone or judging them harshly. Her fair skin has an array of battle-worn marks and nicks here and there, the most noticeable battle scar being the one running through her left eyebrow and eye. She has a lean figure that's constantly pushed to its best form, or it would be if she actually knew how to properly rest. Her clothes consist of whatever is easiest to move in with little exception.
Personality Traits
If there was only one word to describe Lucrezia, it would be angry. The anger often manifests in a dry, snarky tone whenever she speaks, feeling a constant annoyance in nearly every interaction she feels she has to participate in. Her words are often blunt, unwilling to let something as dumb as politeness get in the way of her expressing her opinion. Even when it comes to the hunt, her anger only lowers to a quiet simmer at best as she focuses on the task at hand. Where there was once a genuine passion for life there is only indifference. In her quietest moments, she's simply tired and weary.
Skills
A Degree in Supernatural Hunting - Her family has hunted them down for generations, and despite her father's wishes, Lucrezia is no exception. Tracking, trapping, and killing the monsters is something she takes great pleasure in.
Physical Prowess - Or at least, more physically capable than an average human. Considering there was a point where she wasn't and it cost her an eye, it's necessary. One of the rare jokes she makes is that she endures more out of pure spite.
Weapons Specialist - If she can swing it chances are she knows how to swing it properly.

Weaknesses
Haphephobic - Her reaction at being touched without expecting it is often lashing out, preferring to stay as physically far away from everyone as possible.
Alcoholic - Her one comfort in life, or at least that's what she tells herself.
Insomniac - Sleeping for either two hours or twelve isn't an exaggeration, and takes the biggest toll on her health. Falling asleep somewhere out of the blue isn't as cute as it sounds, either, especially since she tends to wake up in a panic.

History
A witch decided that she wanted her father to herself--without his only child. That resulted in a vengeful, spiteful young girl addled with an unhealthy hatred of everything supernatural.
Life was overall peaceful for the first ten years or so of Lucrezia's life. It was her and her father, Edmund, versus the world. He had decided to raise her as a single father after her mother had died with the occasional help of his brother, Gwilym. The latter had taught her how to hunt, citing that their family had come from a long line of hunters, though as a child Lucrezia never put much thought into finding prey so much as wrestling with her uncle.
One day, she had come home to an empty house. It was odd, as her father had never failed to greet her after school. The hours had passed, but he never showed. It wasn't until late at night that he had finally come, a dazed, but happy expression on him. This would repeat over the next few weeks, but seeing him happy caused her not to question his behavior, no matter how strange. She assumed she had done something wrong to earn his behavior, only feeling something was wrong once his absences grew in time. Hours turned to days, although she finally made up her mind to speak up.
Her chance arrived, only for a confrontation to take place. Apparently he had found a new woman in his life that didn't take kindly to anyone taking up his time, even if it was his own flesh and blood. He explained it all calmly in one moment, only to attack her in the next. As soon as she began pleading with him, however, he seemed to have come to his senses, telling her to run. She escaped to her uncle's house, barely able to explain between breaths what had happened before he had apparently understood, rushing back to the place. Despite her injuries and being told to stay put, she followed him, only to find her father on the floor, knife in hand and covered in blood.
It was then and only then that Gwilym revealed the nature of hunting that the family did--they hunted the supernatural. According to him, Edmund had been bewitched, prisoner to a spell that had been cast on him by a witch. At that point the only thing Lucrezia could do was prepare herself for exacting her vengeance, shedding her previous naivete and donning on a persona of bloodlust, determined to use her life to hunt down every possible supernatural being she could get her hands on. It wasn't enough that she would get her payback with the witch alone; the more supernatural blood she could spill, the better.

Name
Henley Isabelle Kemper
Nickames
Hen (by family only)
Age
27
Gender
Self explanatory
Sexuality
Female
Relationship Status
"Divorced"
Species
Human
Appearance Details
Henley has brown hair, naturally straight with little work, but can dry with natural waves as well. She prefers not to have short bangs, it's less of a distraction when she can tuck the stray strands behind her ear. She has blue eyes and eyebrows that arch up near the ends, and has been graced with a clear face after having some acne issues at a young age. Her lips are average, and aside from the comments about how her eyes sometimes stand out, it's her smile that most people remark over. Henley is proud of her physique, having kept up with her fitness and has strong calves (she is semi-thankful for her heels for that as well.) She has simple curves, Henley never achieved for looking muscular, and was never one to try to tan, even a day in the sun would give her a little burn.
Personality Traits
Henley has always been a hard worker, having been raised by parents who started with nothing. She worked her way through life with doing odd jobs alongside her hunting career and it's made her a busy body who isn't used to prolonged breaks except behind closed doors. She happens to be overly ambitious, only wanting the best out of situations though she tries to understand some of those scenarios aren't possible. She is dedicated nonetheless, work and family are her priority so she's rather reliable and responsible.
Despite all these positives, she doesn't like to make permanent connections to others as easily as she did in the past. People die, and others betray you the second the wind blows the wrong way. She has let some past that superficial barrier she has up, but it has taken time.

Skills
Combat: She is well versed in hand and knife combat. It was hands on experience from her parents and side-hunting with them as a teenager that she bettered herself. She is agile due to her smaller figure, and being dedicated is why she continues to practice on bettering herself to prevent future injuries.
First aid: Her mother helped her to learn basic first aid and how to treat wounds specific to what she would encounter as she grew up into the profession she has now.
Perceptiveness: She is good at reading faces and trying to understand the way people react as they do or say the things they say. Sometimes she thinks she could have made a career out of this skill set alone if it could keep her busy enough.

Weaknesses
Claustrophobia: She freaks out at the thought of being trapped in a room, especially one where she hasn't scouted the entry/exit routes beforehand. It draws her attention away from anything she could have been doing, and it makes her obviously uncomfortable.
Superstitious: Despite knowing there are supernatural beings in the world with her, this woman is superstitious. She hasn't broken a mirror, stepped under ladders, she won't keep walking if a black cat crosses her path, whatever it is, she believes in it. It makes her look rather ridiculous.
Petite: Her size is a weakness and advantage, really. While she comes off as small in size, she knows how to use it to her advantage, but it does make her suseptable to being attacked first or maybe even more often.
Lack of trust: She doesn't trust in most people unless they've stuck around long enough to prove their worth. The last time she trusted in someone, it nearly killed her. So if it's you or her getting out alive, good luck trying to get her to save you.

History
Henley didn't grow up with much aside from having a loving family who taught her the possibilities that came from hard work and dedication to getting things done. Oh, and hunting the supernatural. Being in a city like Detroit, you had a lot of crime that was actually caused by them. Her parents aside from that, worked mundane jobs and she learned skills from them in their free time. She would listen to their stories about what they did when they were out until she was old enough to tag along, and then was seated after her younger brother was born.
Her mother decided to step back and raise her brother a few years later, letting Henley learn the trade from her dad, and Henley was now the sidekick to her father with hunting. This continued for her until graduation, to which she chose to continue the same path of her parents, and with other fellow local hunters, branched out further past just hunting in Detroit.
This was how she to came to meet a man named Beau. The stereotypical getting to know one another, falling in love and marraige thing happened, and it lasted for the first 5 years of her twenties. And then during a hunt she was too sick to participate in one winter night, he was part of an ambush from vampires, and the group didn't make it back, human at least. When he did, he was changed, and it took everything in her to kill him and the few others who returned the same way. And then she sought out the clan who did it. She returned back to Detroit briefly to see her family for a bit, before she decided she was happier out there doing what she did best. She just does it now with not as many relationships to other people. Anyone who asks, she just says she is divorced rather than widowed.

Name
Colette Imogen Lovette
Nickames
Cole
Age
23
Gender
Female
Sexuality
Heterosexual
Relationship Status
Single (And ready to mingle)
Species
Werewolf
Appearance Details
Standing at 6’0” even, Cole is a lithe young woman, with muscles built up from years of hard work and exertion. Her skin is light brown in color, and her hair, while naturally dark brown, currently lies in dark blue curls long enough to reach her back. As a result, she tends to keep her hair tied up or styled to keep it out of the way. She has warm hazel eyes, and tends to have a somewhat teasing smile on her face when relaxed.
Her fashion sense is by far the most remarkable aspect of her appearance, however. Though she has no trouble making more sensible outfits for her customers, she prefers a more avant-garde style for herself. Ranging from mask-covered skirts to mantis kimonos, if there’s a theme or subculture, it’s likely that Cole has attempted to dabble in it at some point or another.

Personality Traits
Cheerful and easygoing, Colette isn’t one to let life get her down when it throws a few hard punches her way. She views life in a “glass half-full” capacity, taking lemons and making lemon cake, and isn’t one to put up with the things that do manage to get under her skin. She has a high level of patience, however, and a somewhat astonishing level of acceptance towards the weird and unordinary.
Additionally, she has quite the playful streak, lightly teasing her friends and having no shame in flirting. If she strikes a nerve, Cole will immediately back off and apologize, but will otherwise try to keep up a friendly banter among loved ones and strangers alike.

Skills
- An accomplished seamstress, and one with an eye for style.
- Has a knack for reading people, and a strong sense of empathy.
- Possesses an affinity for nature. Oddly enough, Cole has a particular fondness for insects and arachnids.
- Very good with makeup.
- Can hold her own in a fight, and knows how to treat wounds.

Weaknesses
- Fairly impulsive.
- If someone needs help, she’ll try to assist them, even if it backfires horribly on her.
- Has a tendency to surround herself in people that she probably shouldn’t be surrounding herself with.
- Though not unintelligent, tends to act more with her heart and less with her brain.
- Knows how to fight, but prefers not to.

History
Was born in a middle class werewolf family. Was looked down upon by supernatural elites, decided to spite them, became a fairly well-known and well-regarded stylist and model among the human world, and in some supernatural circles. Will go more in depth later at some point.

Natalia Konstantin
Nickames
Usually goes by Natasha
Age
23
Gender
Female
Sexuality
Heterosexual
Relationship Status
Single
Species
Half-Blood Vampire
Appearance Details
Standing at an average height of 5"5', Natasha is a lovely girl with fair skin and long, black hair. Her big, reddish brown eyes are her most noticeable feature, her heart shaped face giving her a rather innocent look. She has a fairly slim body type with few curves, a modest bust and hips, and willowy legs. She tends to move gracefully, her reactions obvious and somewhat expressive. She tries to come off as composed, her mannerisms a little on the panicky side when in discomfort or caught off guard. Her clothing leans towards elegant, pampered with the finest as gifted by her prince. She prefers clothing that flows with her, though with rather simple colors that don't draw much attention.
Personality
Natasha is a wallflower in nearly every sense of the word; unassuming and quiet, she tends to have her head down and keep to herself. She is soft-spoken and mostly gentle with both her words and mannerisms, treating everyone and everything delicately. It takes time to get her to be completely comfortable, though once she opens up, it's obvious that she's very much a sheltered child; naive about most things and having an insatiable curiosity. Her interests are a surefire way to get her attention, often getting passionate in her speaking and very much resembling her old, previously optimistic self. While kind, she tends to keep people at arm's length, choosing to listen patiently to people's problems but never opening up about her own. She's at her best with as few people as better, and feels like she can only be herself when no one is around.
The girl can hold a conversation okay enough, although after some time she'll grow uncomfortable and try to find a way out. She doesn't handle arguments or confrontation well, often shrinking back and away from most people when tension arises. Getting approached by people she doesn't know tends to make her nervous, her shyness crippling her social skills. Despite her wariness, if she is assured she'll believe nearly anything easily, often doubting herself first before doubting others. She usually jumps to the worst conclusion until proven otherwise, often drowning herself in a sea of negative possibilities.
When it comes to her 'prince charming', it's almost like she's a high school girl with a crush. Her poorly placed reverence of Prince Mikhail would be comical if it wasn't taken so seriously. She owes him her life, after all, saving her from the clutches of death and giving her a second chance that she has decided to dedicate entirely to him (for better or for worse).

Skills
None yet, unless you count cleaning and washing. She's still working on her vampiric abilities.
Weaknesses
Thirst - Her new thirst ranges from annoying to unbearable. Saying she misses food is an understatement.
The Sun - Her sensitivity is a major inconvenience, to say the least. She usually has to ask permission to get the sun resistant charm.
Blind Trust - In regards to Mikhail. She won't hear a word opposing him, firmly believing everything he says over anyone else's word.

History
Her previous life wasn't particularly tragic, nor was it remarkable. She had a small family, few friends, academic struggles, and numerous opportunities that she had cast aside. At her first taste of independence, she lived recklessly with little regard to the damage she was doing to herself and her loved ones. Eventually they cut her off, hoping she would come to her senses, but instead she moved on to mingle with enablers and other people who would let her do as she pleased. Her addiction took everything she had, or rather she threw away everything and did what she had to to get her next fix.
It came to a logical conclusion as she sat in some alley, dying of an overdose. There was little point in continuing on, convinced that it was too late to salvage whatever was left of her life. To her surprise, however, she suddenly woke up somewhere else. It could have been heaven from the way the place was decorated, but it wasn't the afterlife. Any questions she could have had on where she was or how she had gotten there was answered when what she could only describe as an angel came to her. Why, her knight in shining armor was Prince Mikhail Rochdale! Not only had he gone out of his way to save her life, but he had seen to it that she was given the best care, had her cleaned up and brought to his place, and he was actually looking after her! Clearly, she had been blessed, and seeing as how he was the one that had given her a second chance at life, she decided to dedicate said life entirely to him.

Gender

Species
Turned Vampire
Appearance Details
With striking platinum hair and the pale complexion of a vampire, Ava almost looks like a ghost. The thought of remedying her sickly white appearance with makeup has crossed her mind on a few occasions, but she seldom roams in the sun anyway. She doesn’t own an enchanted artifact that allows her to do so, and it’s never been a priority for Ava to get one. It’s perhaps also a symptom of her unlikable personality, that no witch has offered to make one for her.
Ava’s hair is naturally a light blonde, but it was bleached to an even lighter tone, back when Ava was still human. The long strands of hair reach past her shoulder blades, in soft curls. Ava’s physique had always been slim, and well-proportioned for her height of 5'5".

Personality Traits
The first trait people will notice about Ava is the permanent scowl on her face. There might have been a time when Ava smiled more, but the last few years of her life as a turned vampire has weighed heavily on her. She approaches the world with an air of discontent, often coming off as rude. On a surface level, Ava is confident, and wears a devil-may-care type of attitude, but underneath lies deeply rooted guilt and resentment for her situation. Her extremely prideful nature is likely the reason for her confrontational behaviour - she hides her emotions underneath a mask of strength. Ava’s outbursts are sometimes communicated as acts of violence as well - she doesn’t always harm people, but has a knack for throwing objects around and breaking them.
Before her untimely ‘death’, Ava was bright, cheerful, and extremely ambitious. She was straight-forward in her speech, and stopped at nothing to get what she wanted. The term, ‘work hard, play hard’ embodied who she was. Since turning into a vampire, the ‘work hard’ aspect of her character was whisked away along with her humanity.
There are, however, moments when she regains a small part of her former self, usually when inebriated. It seems that only after a few drinks can Ava forget the fact that she’s a vampire.

Skills
Ava is capable of speaking a little bit of French. Her grandfather was from France, thus the surname, Marseille. She isn’t too athletic but she’s rather flexible, thanks to ballet classes she took from a young age. Ava’s surprisingly business savvy as well, a skill developed back when she wanted to start her own business.
Weaknesses
Ava has many more vices than virtues. She’s a hopeless alcoholic (or blood-holic?), and has behaviour issues to boot. Many would consider her short-tempered and confrontational. When sober, she’s emotionally volatile at best.
It’s not too hard to manipulate Ava either. She wears her weaknesses on her sleeve, really. It’s easy to use her addiction or emotions against her.

History
Ava’s upbringing was very normal - she was human after all. Her family was ridiculously mundane - mom and dad, no siblings, a pet dog named Donut. As a teenager, Ava wasn’t particularly rebellious. She had a circle of friends, snuck out of the house a few times for parties, went to prom - typical milestones for the modern teen. In school, Ava tried hard to meet expectations she and her parents had for herself, and made efforts to succeed. She eventually went on to attend a good college, and laid foundations to start her own business during her undergrad.
When Ava was ‘turned’, her life was flipped upside down. It happened at a bar one night, after one too many drinks. Everything happened so fast. Before she could react or fight back, Ava found herself growing cold and numb in the backseat of a vampire’s car. The reality of death was sobering in that instant. Her screams for help were muffled as her body weakened. Tears streamed down blue-toned cheeks. Perhaps the vampire took pity on her, but for whatever reason, he didn’t kill her. Dying would’ve been better, in Ava’s opinion.
A few months later, Ava had dropped out of school. Attending class was difficult for someone who couldn’t step into the sunlight. She ran away from her friends and family. A never-ending fear lurked at the back of her head that she could hurt them someday. Ava hated her new life. Her aspirations for the future broke into irreparable shards. She hated the ravenous thirst for blood that consumed her every thought. She hated the guilt and disgust she felt every time she had to hurt someone to feed. And most of all, she hated the creatures that did this to her.
For the past several years, Ava spent her time hopping from one city to the next. She ventured out at night and preyed on the blood of party-goers to get as drunk as possible. Then, her restless mind could be silenced by nightlife’s roar of crowds and music. Afterwards, she would sleep around dawn, rinse and repeat.

Ava's life was very normal, until she was turned during her college years. The dreams and aspirations for the future she used to have were frozen in time, forever staying as dreams and what-ifs. Her life now is ruled by her resentment towards herself and her own kind, and spends her nights drinking to take her mind off reality.

Na'nhe is a deep, rich brown with flame colored irises. If you look into her eyes long enough, it's as though you're looking into the molten core of the earth and they almost seem to cast a warmth onto those who find themselves lost in her gaze. Her hair is always tightly wrapped in a gele, to which she attaches ritualistic accessories. She wears a deep burgundy monk-like outfit, she handmade it out of cotton and refuses to wear anything else if she can help it. Her feet are always bare as the earth speaks to her through her skin. The witches birthmark is on her left shoulder, which she proudly bares.
Personality Traits
Na'nhe is a warm, yet stern nurturer. She was raised by her tribe's shaman since the day they learned she was a witch and, because of this, she doesn't take arcane powers lightly. In the face of danger, Na'nhe tends to take the role of protector. Beyond this, Na'nhe is very family oriented and chooses to spend most of her time cooking for, telling stories with, and presenting magical wonders to: those she considers her loved ones.

History
Na'Nhe is from the mountainous Ihn'tu tribe of the old lands. She was born of a huntress and a basket weaver, but was quickly taken under the wing of their tribe shaman after magically reviving an injured crow as a young girl. He raised her to be able to harness the earth's power through ritualistic binding and meditation. After reaching her early adulthood years, the tribe sent her out into the mountains to commune with the spirits of nature and learn of the purpose of her powers - they refused to disturb her journey by taking her back in until she had heard the call of the spirits. Through her journey, Na'nhe discovered the hut of a lone soothsayer, nestled in a valley that was untouched by society. Her name was Morwen. They spent over 90 years together before the tides of time drew Morwen's body to the soils. In her last moments, however, Na'Nhe spent 48 hours in a ritual meditation to bind their spirits together. Na'Nhe can speak with Morwen's spirit on certain nights and gains glimpses into future events. After 147 years, Na'Nhe has become a powerful druid with insight into alchemy and the spiritual plane. She's traveled out of the wilderness and into the surrounding, ever growing, society and constantly searches for knowledge into the bizarre customs of the modern world.

Appearance Details
Nico is a young man of a below average stature of 170 cm (5’ 7”), offset by his athletic physique - diligently built and maintained in his humans years. His vampiric transformation had altered his once mildly tan complexion into a ghoulish pale, never to feel the gentle warmth of the sun again without the intense pain of clusters of fleshy splotches that would sizzle and burn all over. The mutation had spared his red hair, which had become tattered and frayed from lack of care, though he insisted that he preferred this look. Unusually large eyes bulge from his youthful face - nigh a facial hair in sight nor will there ever be - with irises, vibrant blue and peculiarly small for his eyes, which gave his resting expression an uncanny mix of intensity and childlike wonder. Eeriness aside, he could be considered rather attractive if not a bit young looking for his age, if one could also ignore the signs of dry decay on half of his face.
He often dressed in torn clothes of varying sizes and origins beneath a worn, hooded cape, his exposed skin nested in bandages apart from the face, which is obscured by a muzzle over his mouth - a safety measure for his uncontrollable bloodlust - and a dark visor used to shield his eyes. When out on excursions, he brings with him a light, patchwork backpack he fashioned himself and an oil lamp tied to a long branch. As a member of the lowest class, even after he had been assimilated into the society, these were the only clothing and equipment he could get a hold of on his own; fortunately, he finds them “cool”.
In a safe, relaxed environment, he usually has his headgear removed to greet people with a cheerful grin, even though it would show his deformed pair of fangs - one long and sharp and the other short and cracked. When his bloodlust activates, veins swell on his temple, forehead, and eyes as his irises turn a feverish red, quaking and salivating in hunger as he bares his deformed teeth at his prey.

Personality Traits
Nico is amiable and relaxed by nature, happy to befriend almost any individual he meets, even if they appear particularly hostile or antisocial. However, he can come across as a bit too casual, often leaning towards informal diction on instinct and will liberally address others with nicknames if not told otherwise, though it is not out of disrespect but rather a genuine sense of comradery. This is emphasized by his kind, nonjudgmental character as well as his tendency to wear his heart on his sleeve without much thought.
As a result, he is also fairly easy to manipulate, which is not helped by the fact that he is very simple-minded, and is neither particularly wise nor clever. This is further impaired by his poor general ability to retain information and nonexistent affinity for studying. Fortunately, should he become interested enough in a subject, his learning skills become remarkably efficient. His main asset lies in his empathy, as he is very adept at reading other people’s emotions through their body language and facial expressions, particularly feelings of pain and anger, though he was never able to provide satisfactory reasoning behind his deductions as it’s mostly through intuition.
Nico is generally an open book, but a part of him he refuses to show is his resentment towards the caste system. He will, nevertheless, step in - or at least, will be tempted to - if he witnesses mistreatment in front of him. He’s normally difficult to genuinely anger otherwise, though when pushed to his limit, his bloodlust becomes far easier to activate. Unfortunately, the more bitterness he stores within him, the more prone to rage he is, hence why he is so enthusiastic about making friends, as any support and positive attention he receives is the sole reason why he has been able to stay relatively sane.
His lack of any self control over his lust for blood is a significant source of shame for him due to his inherent sense of altruism and the knowledge that he was once the same species as the ones he preys on and kills regularly. His past efforts to suppress his urges has only made him more unhinged and temperamental as a result until he has sufficiently fed. During his bloodlust mode, he becomes almost completely consumed by an overwhelming need for blood; he describes it as being trapped in his own mind and body, but he can still see and hear everything in a way that was like it was all far away from him.

History
Nico’s memory of his own past before he was turned is incredibly fuzzy. He vaguely remembers having been raised in a small rural town near mountains but is unable to recall specific events or people he used to know.
He had recently turned 21 before he was transformed into a vampire. Unfortunately, the one responsible for his conversion was too inexperienced to execute it properly which mutated Nico into a half-blood in the process. They abandoned the newly turned vampire to his own devices shortly after, who lost himself in a flurry of bloodlust, feeding on and killing his entire family before vanishing into the forest bordering the town.
Once he had regained consciousness, the trauma upon realizing he murdered his loved ones forced him to block out these memories from his consciousness. What Nico thought it was solely because he was a half-blood, was actually partially the result of localized dissociative amnesia. This has allowed him to preserve his friendly, cheerful personality, a part of him that remained strongly intact after his transformation.
He traveled alone for a few years as he experimented with his new body; with no direction due to being largely amnesiac, he focused primarily on feeding and searching for excitement and companionship. He was lucky to have lived in an area far from supernatural occurrences such that he was able to survive without much difficulty. When he was approached by servants from the Council of Iris, realizing that they don’t trigger his bloodlust, he let them take him in without much resistance. As of now, he has yet to endure enough abuse from the society to let it demoralize him.

General Body Language
Nico has an unusually decent posture for someone of the lowest class, though it’s actually because it was another characteristic of his past human self that persisted. In resting position, his shoulders are often relaxed and slanted slightly downward. He may also nonchalantly lean on walls and other tall structures if they’re nearby.
He has a tendency to use lots of wild hand gestures when he speaks without realizing. One of his favorite actions to perform is to curl both his hands into fists and punch one into the air as he exclaims something with enthusiasm. If he has established a friendship with someone, he can be very liberal with physical contact - patting them on the back, putting his arm around their neck, etc. - but will promptly stop and respect their space if told to. The way he interacts with others, along with his overly affectionate way of speaking, can often be misinterpreted as romantic advances - this is only partially unintentional.
Nico is generally far more restrained with his body language when around born vampires, however.
