Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome to the stage::
''Dove Alexander!!
[/size][/b]
I’m the
Best damn thing
That your eyes have
Ever seen
Best damn thing
That your eyes have
Ever seen
Hold the press!!
Don't go wasting all your applause just yet, save some for Hannah. They have been treading the floorboards for exactly 18 years and they have been totally female!! She has been in the spotlight roughly six months, and they're loving it!!
And now for the good stuff!!
We have a new kid on the block, going by the name of Dove Alexander, but only their mother calls them that; you can call them Dove, Lillith! Rumour has it this dudette is a totally hoopy frood; so Mum's, lock up your sons!! They've been cruising the streets of London for 360 years now, after coming into this god forsaken world on February Thirteenth.
Here's the vitals!!
Race::Vampyre
Special Abilities:: Clairvoyance. This is the ability to remotely view people that she knows and also pin point their exact location. With people she is close with, it is an almost automatic thing; she just has to think about them and she can see them. But with people she doesn't know, it takes a lot of concentration. If she uses this power too often on people during the day, her energy starts to drain; during her training, she passed out for around three days as she didn't recognise the warning signs.
Gyrokinesis. This is the ability to manipulate gravity at will, using her mind. She can decrease or increase the effect that gravity has on any given object (or person), causing them to either float around the room uncontrolably or to be pulled to the floor. She can also create gravitational fields on walls, ceilings, swords, anything, causing everything to fly towards it. If she increases the gravitational pull enough, she can crush an object or person. She can also use this power to fly, but it takes an immense amount of concentration, as it involves changing the gravity of the earth only to affect her, in the direction that she wants to go and evenly so she doesn't kangaroo. This power has along battery life, if she only does little things. Crushing more than a few people in a short amount of time, for example, will zap her energy and render her all but useless.
Family:: Family of Blood
Position in the Family:: The House of Alexander is at the top of the Family, and Dove is first in line to be the head of her House.
The physical!!
The hair:: Doves hair is long, dark and wavy. It reaches just about to her knees and she would have it longer, but due to her being a vampire, she can’t.
The eyes::Dove has grey eyes which tend to look different colours depending on her mood.
The body::Dove is fairly short, reaching only five foot four, but for her time, that was fairly normal. She is very thin and would look fairly 2-D if it weren’t for her bust.
The style:: Whilst at court, she tends to wear long dresses in the deep reds, blues and purples. When she’s out in the city, however, she tends to stick with what the humans think are fashionable. She doesn’t like the fact she has to fit in with the stock, but she does it anyway. She tends to wear clothes that extenuate her figure, showing it off to its full potential.
The looks::
With her porcelain skin and lack of height, she looks every part a doll, if a slightly X-rated one. She uses this look to her advantage as people never think she’ll throw the first punch, much less fight dirty. The very little meat she has on her is muscle, thanks partly to all the working out her Dad had her do when she was human and partly due to her change.
The mental!!
The likes:: Human Blood. More specifically, male human blood. She won’t have anything else; she says it tastes of blood and sex. And with her looks, she can easily persuade then to come to her house for a bite to eat.
The Hunt. Most of the time she doesn’t need one, but occasionally she’ll make it so she has to; she likes the taste of fear and adrenaline. To do this, she tends to ‘let slip’ her real identity and let them escape. Once they’ve built up a false sense of security, she stalks them, letting them see her shadow or hear her foot steps. Then she strikes.
Men. Vamprye men that is. She wouldn’t lower herself to being around any other male, especially those from the Family of the Moon.
The dislikes:: Not getting her own way. As a princess, she’s used to getting everything she wants. The only person who dares to tell her no is her father, and he tends to let her get what she wants.
Animal Blood. She feels that drinking animal blood is the way of peasants and refuses to lower herself to such a level.
Lower Houses. Especially the Dhampyrs. There is no particular reason for this other than she is a snob.
The hopes:: She wants to reign over The Night. Although this means she’d have to loose her father, the fact she would be Queen would make up for it.
Secretly, she’d like to find a mate. This, however, would mean that she’d have to share her power and that’s not something she’s willing to do.
She’d also quite like to find a human that she could turn. But that would mean having to form a relationship with a human, which, again, isn’t something she wants to do.
The fears:: Cats of all types. Since she was attacked by the Werecats, she has a phobia of all cats. If she so much as smells one, she’ll use her powers to get rid of it. This, however, isn’t common knowledge.
Loosing the control. Although her father repeatedly reassures her, she lives in constant fear of The Family of the Moon succeeding in their quest to gain control and that she’d lose everything that she’s got.
Her past. She is petrified of people finding out about her past. She knows that she’d be ridiculed for it, especially with the way she is with everyone else.
The talents:: Sword fighting. Dove is a dab hand at any form of sword fighting due to a love of sharp pointy things and plenty of time on her hands.
Fighting in general. Because of how she lived her human life, Dove knows how to throw a punch. She can also fight dirty and isn’t afraid to do so.
Causing trouble. Dove knows exactly what to say or do in order to cause trouble for people and she does so regularly.
The bad habits:: Finger tapping. When ever she’s bored, she taps her fingers on the closest surface, making as much noise as possible in order to let people know just how bored she is.
Using her Powers. When she’s bored, she tends to use her gyrokinesis to make things and people float around. She finds it highly amusing to see people struggling to get back to the floor when they can’t do anything about it.
Tantrums. When she doesn’t get her way, she’ll throw the biggest tantrum she can. She’ll slam doors repeatedly, throw things both physically and mentally at people and literally scream.
The attitude::
Dove is highly arrogant and thinks she's better than everyone else, and she's not afraid to show it either. She constantly looks down her nose at everyone and doesn’t care what people think about her, much less what they say. The only person that she needs to love her is her father, and as such she will do anything to gain his approval. With an ego to rival Narciccus, she knows that she is attractive and flaunts it regularly.
When her father is around, she tends to act like a little princess. She's used to getting her own way with him and tends to take this attitude out into every other aspect of her life. If things don't go her way, she'll throw a tantrum until the other person gives in.
The rest!!
The parents:: Her biological parents are long since departed, and she couldn’t care less. The only parent she could ever want is the vampyre that turned her, Nathaniel Alexander.
The siblings:: None
The others:: She has various cousins in the Family, but doesn’t really bother with them
The social class:: Upper Class
The history::
Dove was born in the mid 1600’s. Although she doesn’t really remember an awful lot about her human life, she knows that it was far from glamorous. She was the illegitimate child of a wealthy politician and a whore, neither of whom wanted anything to do with her.
She was bought up in an orphanage in London, having to share a bed with a dozen other children. There was never enough food to go around and she had to learn to fight to get her fair share, or else she would have to go hungry.
When she was 13, Nathaniel walked into the orphanage looking for an heir. All the children were completely oblivious of this, as were the Nun’s who cared for them. He spent hours watching them, working out who would be best suited for the world he’d be taking them into.
The next day, he came to the orphanage and asked to see the children. The Nun’s bought him in and he spent a few minutes checking them over for the Nun’s peace of mind, then told them that he’d happily take Dove away but that it’d have to be immediately. The Nun’s were worried about this stranger, they’d heard rumours of creatures of Satan walking the streets of London, but he eventually won them over with the help of a substantial donation.
For the next few years, Dove lived in his London residence whilst he was constantly away on business at what she thought to be the Royal Court. He hired her a governess to teach her how to walk and talk like Royalty and she eventually lost all signs of her lowly birth.
When she was 18, on a rare night that her adopted father was home, their home was attacked by Werecats. As soon as they found her asleep in her bedroom, they attacked. They mauled her pretty badly, but before they could attempt to turn her, Nathaniel came to the rescue.
She can’t really remember anything from that night other than pain all over her body and blood. And then the pain changed and became more intense, causing her to pass out completely.
When she awoke, she thought that she had died and gone to hell. There was no way that anything that painful could happen on Earth. She grew delirious and Nathaniel was sure that something had gone wrong. Maybe the Werecats had god to her before he managed to fight them off after all. Maybe she just wasn’t fit enough to survive the change. Maybe he’d done it wrong.
After three days of torture for the both of them, it finally stopped. Dove was left in unconscious as she finally died. Nathaniel waited for hours for her to regain consciousness and, just as he was about to give up hope, she woke up.
After a few years of getting used to her new powers and the insatiable blood lust, she was ready for The Blood Court. At this point in time, The House of Alexander was the second highest in the Court, so she didn’t have to worry too much about her past being made apparent.
Shortly after her 100th birthday, however, the Royal house was attacked and killed, causing them to rise in the ranks and become the Rulers of the Night.
The rest!!
The RP sample::
Dove pouted when he didn’t fall for the distraction, but she had a feeling it wouldn’t work anyway. There was no point in trying to distract him when he was like this; he knew what he wanted to say and he was damn well going to say it to her.
“Well, when my darling daughter concedes in an argument without any effort on my half it’s usually pretty apparent she is up to something. Dove cringed; she knew that she’d given in too early with that argument but she didn’t really want to run the risk of him coming along. She’d been planning this outfit for months and she knew that he wouldn’t approve. It was just her luck that in trying to avoid him tagging along, she’d alerted his parental radar, causing him to tag along.
”Plus there was the fact I was going to give you a present...” Dove squealed and jumped up and down on the spot, before realising that that probably wasn’t the best thing to do in this outfit. She quickly stopped and covered the few remaining steps to give him a hug. Almost as quickly, she took a step back, trying to get her skin from itching in discomfort and growling in annoyance. She always hated that part of her humanity; if she wanted to give her Dad a hug, she should be able to God dammit!
”But now I am considering doing certain things to that barman and dragging you into a real clothes store.” Dove looked down at her outfit and laughed.
”Oh Daddy, do you really think I’d have been able to get this in a clothes store? This is all my own hard work! Well, the top layer is. It took ages to do. Aren’t I good?” She spun around, giving him a better look at her handy work. It really had taken her ages to do; mainly because she had to do it when he was out of the house.
She did notice that her Dad was still a bit twitchy concerning her appearance and just how close she appeared to be with the bar man and realised that perhaps twirling around wasn’t such a good idea. Don’t get her wrong, she didn’t give a stuff about the barman, but if he did anything to him here, he could get in trouble. And then how would she get her present? And, more importantly, who would turn her?
Her eyes widened in excitement; maybe that was her present! It was the perfect date after all. And he was dressed the part. She clapped her hands quickly and bounced on her feet again. ”If I promise to go clothes shopping with you as soon as we can, can I get my present?”
