Name: Aria Abendroth
Age: 19 plus 5 years as a vampire
Gender: Female
Physical description: Topping off at 5' 0” naturally (well, plus about two inches of hair most the time), Aria's certainly on the shorter side. Dark auburn waves are typically piled on her head in two messy buns, though her bangs and various other bits of hair refuse to be held up. Her eyes are typically dark gray, though when she needs blood they turn scarlet. Aria's skin is surprisingly tanned for a vampire, which certainly helps her not look like the bloodsucking monster she is. Though she occasionally strays, as a general rule she doesn't wear horribly goth-y clothing. Even so, she tends to wear darker colors. Over all, she doesn't outwardly appear as if she should necessarily be here.
Personality: Cynical and dark humored, Aria tends to scare people and annoy authority figures. She isn't out and out rude to most people, but her tendency to negatively analyze everyone and everything puts most people off. She is very open about her nature as a vampire who would have no problems drinking every last drop of one's blood. Even so, she tries to be a good teacher, her given reason being that she “needs intelligent people to talk to”.
History: Born to a normal family in a normal part of the fairly normal United States of America, Aria's life, as a general rule, was normal. She adapted to the role as the more sensible girl of her group... or as sensible as a girl who is in the 'skater/punk' clique can be. Her experience with Gifted people was limited to reading a few superhero comics as a kid. If her life had continued in it's very normal vein, she probably would have become that cashier at Wal-Mart who always stares blankly while working, not really there in mind, but there to pick up the check.
It was really quite stereotypical. In fact, later she would often laugh about it, bitterly joking about how she felt like the heroine from a cheap vampire novel. On a simple mission to buy candy, alcohol, and all the other necessary items for a mini-party with her friends, Aria and her sister walked to the convenience store on the corner. They walked through the same alley they had for most of their lives to get to school, their friend's houses. The darkness and quiet that surrounded them was just vaguely menacing, familiarity fighting back any sixth sense feelings of being endangered. It took a few seconds for Aria to even realize what had happened. The form had just sudden started shaking violently from it's seated position, drawing their eyes down. Bright red eyes peaked out from a black hoodie before Aria heard her sister's scream and blacked out.
She woke up in the middle of killing someone. Her first sight as a vampire was her own sharpened nails digging into the flesh of a middle-aged man's neck. The shock of such a sight stunned her for a few seconds before the blood lust took over, forcing her to almost completely drain his body of blood, leaving a grotesque mockery of a human corpse. She lived her life more carefully once she had some shred of sanity back. Her small town was in the news as the site of a serial killer who was draining 'his' victims of blood and somehow dumping them in dark streets, or alleys without leaving a decent clue. Aria had never been horribly moral in life despite claiming Christianity with the rest of her family. When it came down to it, the idea of trying to kill herself to spare others seemed stupid. Even so, she began to limit herself to older people, the obscenely rich or the homeless. Justifying her murders, she began to live a life in a different kind of normalcy. She moved, she fed, and moved again.
Of course she was bitter about the loss of her old life, but she lived her new one easily until she picked the wrong victim. Attacking a woman wearing an obviously designer dress, she got the shock of her life after being flung backwards into a nearby building by nothing but a sudden, invisible force. The woman sighed and flicked out a cellphone, calling someone while Aria struggled against her telekinetic cage. It didn't take long for a van to show up and a brown-headed woman with silver bangs to get out and talk to her, trying to calm her down. The monotoned woman explained to her this whole hidden world of the Gifted, and convinced her to come down to the school she worked at to be around similar people. Too old and stubborn to accept being a student yet again, Aria managed to get a job as a student/teacher, helping the brown and silver-haired woman teach while taking a few classes.
Job Position: Liana's assistant technically, though somehow Jordyn manages to have her run errands most of the time.
How Long you have been at Lilliumn's: A couple days
Powers: Though innately stronger and faster than most humans, she's certainly not unbeatable. That said, she is fairly hard to kill, especially to non-Gifted. She's fairly vulnerable to a good telekinetic, which is, of course, something she is working on.
