Name: Marie Lacour
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance:
Marie Lacour is 5'5" (1.65 m), very thin to an almost unhealthy degree, with Black hair, green eyes, and lightly tanned skin from her father's side. Marie tends to wear her hair back up in a ponytail to keep it out of her face, and wears rather non-descript black clothing most of the time in her current hiding state. She's rather dirty looking, having spent the last year of her life hiding in the dense woods of North Carolina, tracking witches and evading their capture.
Personality: Marie used to be happy and friendly a long time ago, and on occasion, this old personality shows through. However, the vast majority of Marie's expression comes in the form of paranoia and anxiety. Quick to react violently, especially when confronted by those that are not familiar to her, and very distrustful of all those who she would consider familiar. For the most part, Marie is asocial by choice, preferring to stay hidden away in the dense forests outside of Carlsford, hidden away from the witches she scorned with her betrayal and departure. Marie feels deep feelings of failure and persecution, partial contributed by her slowly worsening psychosis.
Bio:
The story of Marie Lacour begins with the meeting of Aaron Lacour, a Cajun student of business, and Sabine Duret, a student from Rouen in France. From there first meeting in Louisiana, it was decided that the two would marry and that Aaron would relocate to France with Sabine. And with the birth of their first child, Marie Acadie Lacour; began the downfall of not only their own lives, but the beginning of a tragic fate to unspin with the girl.
Marie and her two siblings, Maxine and Jules spent the majority of their childhood lives in the city of Rouen. For the most part, life was good for the family. However, Aaron and Sabine always took a notice to the odd behavior of Marie. The growing problems of the child, particularly Marie, began to take their toll on the stability of the family, and slowly, animosity between Aaron and Sabine reached a peak when Marie was 13 years of age, when a severe mental breakdown led to her attempting suicide, culminating in a long period of mental health examination, concluding with her being declared afflicted with Paranoid Schizophrenia. Only a year later, Marie's parents divorced, and Aaron decided to relocate to the United States once again, taking Marie and Jules with him; Maxine staying in France with Sabine. Marie began to blame herself for the separation of her family, a feeling coupled with her father's distance towards her, and her sister's outright hatred of her shortly after the separation. Aaron, unable to find work in his native Louisiana, moved his family to Charlotte, and later was moved to Carlsford by his employer. The move was hard on the already mentally unstable Marie, who had never lived in such a small and foreign place before. Unlike her 8 year old brother, the 14 year old Marie never was able to fully fit into the new society she was living in, and remained something of an outcast her entire life, finding little support in her resenting father, her family in France, with only her brother showing any kind of concern for her. From this point on, Marie took on the philosophy to just go with life, and try to be happy, do not fight against others, and try to be optimistic, lest the worst happen in life.
At age 17 Marie began feeling strange urges to paint and inscribe symbols. It was brushed off by her and her family as schizophrenia-related, though for her, these urges felt different from anything she had felt before. A young girl caught sight of Marie's drawings and symbols, and immediately was intrigued, she began to talk to her more, and soon the two girls, the other named Melanie, but known as Mel by Marie, became close friends. Mel introduced Marie to magic and the art of witches, intrigued by Marie's strange symbols, which she recognized as a form of runemal enchanting native to Normandy, Marie's native region of France. Marie thought little of it and initially did not believe Mel. By 18, Marie began to develop romantic feelings for her friend and the two became a couple, though Aaron, disapproving of this, expelled Marie from his home. Hurt, Mel informed Marie that she could keep her somewhere, and thus, Marie was introduced into the Carlsford Coven.
While initially seen as untrustworthy and a potential traitor for her schizophrenia, Marie was later accepted among the coven as a skilled enchanter, using her natural skill in Runic Binding to attribute power to items. However, Marie had always had problems with the morality of the coven. This culminated in her eventual killing of a fellow witch in defense of a common human. Marie declared a traitor and was sentenced to die, and as such, she fled, hoping to take refuge in France, but soon taking on a change of heart while hiding away in the dark forests of North Carolina, deciding that instead of hiding and being hated like she always was, to fight back. As of now, Marie is an independent hunter, killing any witch that she comes in contact with, tracking other down, and efficient at it with her very intimate knowledge of the coven. She is, however, distrustful of other hunters, given her nature as essentially a turncoat witch.
Weapon Specialty: Marie fights with a Crossbow. Her Bows are usually enchanted, and her custom arrow heads are forged from silver alloys and the heads are dipped in olive oils and juices.
