The Character's Background

1) Give a description of your character's personality. It must be at least two paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

Nevena was always described as her sister, who knew her the best in life, as a sweet, charismatic people person, who just also happened to be able to figure out how people ticked in a short amount of time. She knew how to play people, but she never did. Always the loner in the back, she got along with everyone. That was enough for her. Nobody hated her. Her thing was, though, nobody really loved her either. Except maybe two people. Nevena shows this with her array of issues, including abandonment and commitment issues. She can bring people home whenever she likes, but she always preferred to be alone and just read.

But over the years, her husband's abuse and her isolation has caused a sort of coldness to form around her. It almost seems as if she's always angry, but really, she's mostly just always tired. People make her tired. But she also finds a sort of warmness that she needs. Another thing is, she's a protector of sorts. Nev hates seeing women, or even people in general, be taken advantage of. She offers her support to anyone that needs it and, really, is a shoulder to cry on for everybody. But she has her dark side. Her coldness. Her wrath and anger. Its just one thing people do not usually bring out in her.

2) Write about the history of your character. How did they grow up? Is there an incident that made them the way they are? It must be at least three paragraphs long, seven sentences each.

Nevena Kari Lupei is an Indian-Danish woman born to an Indian woman more interested money, and a Danish man most in how he is publicly perceived. Clearly, a loveless marriage took place, but somehow it resulted in three pregnancies. The first was Nevena's stillborn brother, named after her father, Cristen. Second, was the miracle child herself. At least, that's how the family showed her to be. She was the 'rainbow baby,' and because of this, she had been given impossible standards all her life. It just happened at birth.

After Nevena, was born her baby sister, Dena. Dena was only about a year younger than Nevena, but somehow, she excelled in everything Nevena did not. Where Nev was good with people, and was a strategic child, Dena was always more emotional, and brilliant. The two balanced each other out very well, and so the two never had any issues growing up. They always got on, and were always playing on the grounds together. They even had their first magical sign together, when they were out late one night and, having difficulty finding their way back to their door, the two wished really hard for some sort of sign, or help, and then when they opened their eyes, magical lights lit the way home!

Dena and Nevena were sent to Durmstrang at the right ages, and the two stayed close throughout, until Nevena began having issues with certain feelings. Around her fourth years, Nevena began pulling away from the rest of the family. Specifically, her father, who was the Headmaster of Durmstrang at the time. Nevena knew how she felt wouldn't have been welcomed. Eventually, Dena began seeing signs of something - Combined with the increasing distance, she was going places with new people, and acting shifty. At first, Dena believed it had to be drugs, but seeing as she had no proof, she didn't say anything until two years later.

The girls had gotten into an argument that night. It was Dena's birthday, and she wanted to spend time with her sister, but Nevena had plans that night with "people", she had explained. Dena grew irritated, and called her out. Since when are drugs more important than family? Nevena stared at her dumbfounded, and finally admitted the truth. '''Drugs? No! Never! Dena, I... I'm gay. I have a girlfriend.'''"

Dena was shocked, but soon enough, their sisterood grew unbreakable and strong again. Nevena even introduced her to her girlfriend - A woman named Britt. Everything was good until after Britt and Nevena graduated - And when her father found out about her relationship by seeing them kiss at graduation. Her father confronted her, and forced the two women to break up... due to Nevena's newfound engagement.

It turns out, from childhood, she was engaged to a man from the Lupei family. This family, unbeknownst to her father, had been a secretive family of werewolves since it's dawn. Nevena didn't find out until after the marriage. Her husband. a man named Casper Lupei, made an offer the night of their wedding to turn her. She refused, and the rest of the night was spent with them alone. Nevena, though she hated the idea of it, knew her place as a wife, and allowed him to whatever he had wished. As a result came her first pregnancy.

Nine months later, her wonderful daughter, Elise, was born. Elise and Nevena always had each other, even when Elsie had to undergo her 'tranformation' for the first time at the age of three - An event that tore the mother apart to see. But still, their relationship was almost as strong and Nevena and her sister's, when they were growing up. Through everything, Nevena had been banned from seeing Dena ever again, as well as the rest of her family. '''Its how we always kept our nature a secret, Liebling. We hide people like you and Elise until you swear your secrecy''', her husband said one day. Nevena had to have found solace somewhere, and, miraculously, it was with Britt, who happened to be her husband's cousin. The two kept contact, and their love for one another never faltered. Not until Britt died.

Britt had been found one morning by Nevena, after meeting her one day for breakfast. She was found poisoned and slouched over the table. At first, Nevena refused to believe it, and stayed by her side until her husband saw, and pulled her off and called the aurors. They ruled it an accident, somehow, and everything was supposed to go back to normal. BU Nevena just simply couldn't. It wasn't until Nevena almost committed suicide that her husband decided to drag her away from what she knew, and moved them all the England.

In England, it really never got any better. In fact, it got even worse. Nevena was isolated before, but now she just chose to do nothing about it. She was essentially in mourning for the only woman she had ever loved. It wasn't very long until Casper grew tired of her mourning, and yelled at her constantly, until he said the fated words. '''I'm glad I got rid of her. She was ruining us, Liebling! She was ruining you!'''. That's when Nevena just paused her entire life. She didn't fight with him, but she was planning her revenge.

four year later, a representative of the order of Yggsdrasil appeared on her front door. Hearing about how they needed a new representative, and her family's history meant that she was to be the one. Apparently, the Lupei's are not the only ones with familial history.. Nevena agreed, but with a cold look in her eyes, she added, on one condition.. If they helped her kill her husband, she'd be more than happy to join with them.

So the leader of the Order helped her plan, and a year later, Casper Lupei died of poisoning, and Nevena payed it off to make it out to be an accident. Justice was served, in her opinion, and with Elise in tow, she joined the Order of Yggdrasil with open arms. That year in her life was also very successful for her. She had gotten a job as a bartender at a local bar, The Pink Lady. Elise started school. Everything started going well for her after Casper's death, and now, though she still misses Britt, she's happy.
