"To be completely and wholly yourself is nothing to be ashamed of. To live to please others and fulfill their unrealistic expectations is, however, and I give no respect to those who attempt to do so.

[color=]| Distinguishing Features |[/color]
Her hair and eyes. Her being a vibrant red since birth, it has attracted the eyes of many people - not all of them the best of characters. Combined with her uniquely purple eyes, she is a rare human being who, when on the market, would run for a high amount of money. It also didn't hurt that her blood type was the rarest of them all - AB-.
[color=]"I've been told that these are the reasons why I would run for such a high price in the vampire slave trade."[/color]
| Nationality |
Dublin, Ireland
"I'm not an illegal alien - I promise."
| Ethnicity |
1/8 Scandinavian, 1/8 Swedish, 1/8 Norwegian, 1/8 Danish, 1/8 German, 1/8 Italian, 1/4 Irish
"So my family got around - have a problem with that?"
| Scars |
She has several along her back that criss-cross in a way that they cannot be followed. Along with those, she has one that curls around her neck, the explanation of which will be in her History.
"Yes, they're very noticeable - but why should I care about if people see them? They aren't what define me. They are simply reminders of what I have survived through. Besides - with these, vampires are less likely to want to buy a tarnished item if I ever have the misfortune of finding my way back into the trade."
| Tattoos |
None
[color=]"Why mark your body senselessly? Plus, for some reason, some vampires tend to like tattooed slaves quite a bit."[/color]
| Birthmarks |
She has a rather large one in the shape of a sun on her left hip-bone.
"I've been told that I was marked from birth to become the idol that restored sunlight to a dismal world."
| Piercings |
Three studs in her right ear, along with two cartilage piercings, and one in her left ear. Also, she has one nose piercing, one tongue, and one belly button piercing.
"I'm not a complete delinquent - anyone with eyes could see that. I simply like piercings."
| Oddities |
⧠It's been found to be impossible for her to fall for anyone anymore. She can admire an attractive male specimen, but that's where it ends. The vampires destroyed love for her, and her greatest fear is that it will never be restored and she will end up alone.
⧠Vera is basically a living lie detector. She is very skilled when it comes to telling if someone is not being honest with her, and there are many people who fear her for this talent.
⧠Although she isn't an emotionless robot, she is able to perform some and certain tasks without any emotion at all. It's simply a form of protection for her - although she does often come off as not caring about a thing.
⧠She experiences very severe night terrors, to the point of mental trauma. Not only is she scarred by the images she sees, but she often injures herself in her sleep due to thrashing. Because of this, she is forced to restrain herself in some way before sleeping. The worst part of this? She remembers the dreams.
⧠Most people know very little about her past, and those who know more have never lived to tell the tale.
⧠When was the last time someone saw her smile?
"Everyone's a little odd in their own, special way. It's when you embrace that oddness that you truly embrace yourself."
"I'm me, and I enjoy being this way. No one will ever change me, no matter how hard they try. You'd do well to remember that, kiddo."
| Race |
Human
"If I were to ever become else-wise, I would take my own life. And if I were unable to, I would hope that someone else would take me out - no matter what I would say in my new form."
| Personality |
{WIP}
"I'm me, assholes - and don't you forget it. I'll put you in your place so quickly you won't know what hit you!"
| Dominant Emotion |
Determination
"I will fight until my last, dying breath to restore honor and dignity to the human race. We are not sheep to simply be coddled and toyed with - we are bears in sheep's skins."
| Danger Level |
Normally, she's about a 3. She doesn't really care about what other people do, so long as they don't disobey the laws she first set for the Feral Group. However, when antagonized - say they hurt someone she did manage to care about - she soars up to a 9 1/2 in her threat level. Not just because of her skills in the art of fighting, but also because of her technological intellect.
"I'm a pretty scary bitch when I want to be."
"Prying too deeply into someone's past - that's quite a troublesome trait you have there. Not only can it hurt the person you are delving into, but it can also hurt you - and not just mentally."
