Dirty Little Secrets
-She actually gets a thrill out of killing, she has become a bit of an adrenaline junkie because of this, but she does feel bad after her adrenaline high subsides, she wishes she could take it back, but she doesn’t try to think about it too much.
-She has been married twice, though the both husbands “mysteriously” disappeared…she actually had not to do with it…seriously!
Personality
Clarissa could be defined as beautifully insane, the perfect disaster, or hopelessly lovely. She is quite the contradiction really, she is absolutely beautiful, but completely destroyed. She has no love at all for anyone or anything. Her beauty is very misleading, she tends to lure guys in and she will use them, then once she knows they love her she will break their heart, she figures this way no one can ever hurt her again. She doesn’t trust anyone and is very untrustworthy herself. But, regardless of her wicked insanity she is actually a very sweet person which may be extremely hard to believe, she just hasn’t been shown love since she was a little girl and has forgotten how to love herself and everyone else. She has gained most of her insanity back, but that doesn’t mean she won’t kill you if you cross her the wrong way, she won’t even hesitate. She is very sarcastic and if she likes you, she will become protective, she is actually very protective of girls when it comes to guys. But deep down she wishes that a guy could see past all her issues to the real her. Also despite what she say or people think she actually has feelings...Shocker!
History
Clarissa was born of January 1st, 1685 in London England, to the very wealthy family, The Van Der Courtland’s. The family was well known in Europe, Brando Van Der Courtland, Clarissa’s father was a Duke of England. Their families’ wealth was only matched by the King and Queen. Her father did a lot of the Queen’s work putting him in high power. Though tragedy struck when Clarissa turned 7, by order of the Queen her family was to be executed, the Queen had been informed that Brando was a traitor, though it was not truth. With only minutes to spear her parents convinced her older brother to leave with Clarissa, to run and not stop for anyone, he did as he was told. The two barely escaped and watched as their parents were drug from their estate.
The two once very wealthy Van Der Courtland children were now, poor and orphaned. Her brother only twelve tried his best to look out for his sister and protect, but eventually the two were separated. Her brother placed in a factory and she was placed in an orphanage, when asked her name the woman at the orphanage knew exactly who she was and for her own safety she changed the little girl’s last name to Epsilon. At ten after three years of living in the cold unwelcoming orphanage Clarissa was adopted, but her life would be no better, she was raped, beaten, and tortured by her drunken adopted father, for five years her adopted mother never tried to stop the abuse to the poor girl. At fifteen Clarissa had, had enough and she brutally murder both of her so called parents.
This awakened a side of Clarissa she liked, a dark untouchable side. She was no longer a helpless little girl, she had a taste for blood, something that wasn’t very becoming of a lady, but she could care less what society thought of her, she had nothing left to loose. For a while she went a bit insane, killing for the sport of it, her weapon of choice a flintlock, she became obsessed with guns learning every inch of them and becoming a sharpshooter, possible the best female sharpshooter of her time. She also became quite skilled in combat. Eventually her sanity had somewhat returned and she decided to headed to the “New World” she had done enough damage in Europe.
