Melanie Vrana |
General Nickname(s): N/A Age: 1602 years Date of Birth: Unknown Gender: Female Species: Human Dimension: The Cursed Lands Appearance Link Melanie was cursed at the age of twelve, and over the years her appearance hasn't changed in the slightest. Her small body is lanky and thin, as if she rarely eats, and her bright blue eyes look sunken and dark underneath. Her skin is pale, but otherwise completely void of any marks or imperfections. She also has small fangs, but they're barely noticeable. Her medium-length hair falls just above her shoulders, and curls sharply near the tips. Her bangs are messy, and often fall in her face, though she tries to keep them off to the side, and some strands of her hair stick out awkwardly. Though mostly black, her hair also has a few odd strands which appear to be a light silver. Her clothes are the same she wore before she was turned into a crow, which is what she was forced to wear. Since she was never on a battle field like her siblings, she wears a soft, light dress. This dress is pure white, with the symbol of her homeland sewn into the cloth near her heart. On her feet she wears canvas shoes. Personality Melanie is skittish, timid, quiet, and often regretful of her past. She hates being immortal, but her love for her family and friends is much stronger than any hate she has, which is why she gave up mortality to rid them of the curse, as well as their own immortality. Not only that, but she is extremely loyal, and will protect those she cares about with her life. Sometimes she will do so without thinking first, putting herself in harm's way, and then justify it with the fact that she can't die, anyway. Of course, she can still feel pain, and since she is only healed when the wound is fatal, she often puts herself in a great deal of pain. She would rather hurt than see others harmed, though. Likes

Family Mother: Vaela Vrana Father: Turrin Vrana or Creator: Uliel (in a way) Siblings: Alfred Vrana (older brother); Evelyn Vrana (older sister) Other: N/A History Melanie is the youngest of the Vrana siblings, and therefore the last born before their parents were killed in the war and their house burned to the ground. Evelyn took care of both her and Alfred, but even so, they were homeless and barely got by. When offered enough coin to buy a home and food to feed them all for a year, they quickly took the deal. This deal was offered by the ruler of their kingdom, but the cost they paid was much higher than they thought. All of them were given demonic powers, trained, and sent out to the battlefield. All of them except for Melanie. She was cut open and expiramented on. They mixed demon blood into her system, and though she survived, it pushed her past an unforseen limit. She lost control and killed everyone. She escaped the building they kept her captive in, and in her twisted state of mind, killed innocent civilians. Unbenounced to her, Alfred and Evelyn had also lost control, but in a different way. They grew aggressive and attacked both their enemy and their own comrads. The ruler, fearful of what was happening to his kingdom, ordered the group in control of the 'expirement' to shut it down and send the demon who gave them the powers in the first place back to his world. As soon as the demon had left, their sanity returned, but they were also turned into crows. Many assumed that they had simply vanished, but this was not the case. They roamed for a century like this, trying to find a way to be returned to normal. They watched as the world changed and grew, and the horror they caused was turned into stories to scare others with. Eventually the rips tore their world apart, and they were forced to flee. Ending up in an abandoned shack, they stayed there, still trying to find a way to save themselves. After a few years a boy came to their temporary-turned-permanent home. The boy had nowhere else to go, so they let him live there, as well, usually avoiding him by staying in the attic. However, he was kind to them and often fed them, and Melanie grew to enjoy his company. Eventually her siblings followed her and became rather close to the boy named Terence. One day, while trying to cure themselves of the curse, they accidentally gave a 'dormant' version of it to the boy. This 'dormant' curse resided in him silently for years, barely affecting him in the slightest. However, after the rips began to tear appart his dimension it grew worse and worse. Eventually it broke him, and Melanie was forced to intervene. She and her siblings summoned the demon once more to cure the curse from both the boy and themselves. It was always a last resort, something none of them wanted to do, but had to in their moment of emergancy. To their relief, they were finally turned back into their human forms, and the curse was lifted. However, Melanie remained immortal, much to her despair, and the affects of the curse were left untouched due to the demon blood in her. This also meant she kept her 'abilities.' |
