Name :: Isabella [Alteya Hursora, Elizabeth Hursora, Isabella Cortez, Isabella Baladin]
Age :: Born 3000; BC Embraced 2975 BC
Height :: 5’7”
Species :: Vampire
Gender :: Female
Personality :: Isabella has a catty calmness and grace about her. She’s quiet when she feels the need to be—when she feels the need that listening is more important than offering words of insight. Still, this does not mean she won’t speak up when the time calls for it, when a certain passion and a lack of restraint is needed to get one’s point across. She can also be what some might consider too blunt, but won’t offer that raw honesty unless she feels she is already taking part in the conversation at hand, or is asked for her opinion. But, if one is lucky enough to be called her friend, she will offer this bluntness without restraint at any given time.
She also loves sweets, and thanks the cosmos daily that she doesn’t have to worry about her figure. She prefers the highest quality, but isn’t above sneaking a Twinkie if there’s nothing else to be had. She also enjoys her creature comforts—very nice things at a ridiculous price margin: jewelry, bedding, clothes, shoes, and even her furniture has to be of the best quality. She refuses to stay in a place without descent running water, central air, and bed with mattress that makes one feel as if they are resting in the clouds. You’ll also be hard pressed to catch her dressed in anything that isn’t a skirt long enough to cover her ankles. She only ever wears short sleeves in the evening, generally only to special events at that.
Appearance :: Primary features include dark brown-black curly hair, emerald green eyes, and light olive skin. Isabella is always well-groomed, she never seems to have a hair out of place, and is rarely caught with a speck of dirt on her person. Her lashes are long, but not overly so. She does wear make-up, but prefers a natural look—light and earthy tones with pinks. Her body type is not too tall or short; for the modern day she is of average female height. Her frame is what some would consider thin—waifish. There are those who would judge her as ‘too skinny’.
History :: Isabella was born in 3000 BC in Mesopotamia. She was a raised to be a priestess and a user of magics to help with the crops, healing, to convene with the gods, and to aid her people. She was happy; mostly. Contented to live a life in the gentle service of others in a position of respect. But eventually her father, a merchant, made a contract for her marriage with a powerful warrior—a leader of the army for the city the resided in, the kingdom. His name was Daegon. While a proposal of that manner was not unusual, Isara never expected to fall in love.
But, as with all things, bad times fell on the city and her people. Others invaded; what they lacked in skill they made up for in numbers. Daegon asked her to make his warriors stronger—better, and able to withstand injury. She was hesitant, knowing that doing such a thing was better left to the gods, heavenly beings... and demons. If the heavens would not hear her, and they did not, then demons it would have to be. She warned her husband, pleaded with him, to not to ask this of her. There would be repercussions and no going back. But Daegon insisted, and, because she loved him, she gave in.
Indeed, the magics made his warriors stronger—made him stronger. It made it possible for him to defeat the enemy. However... it also twisted him; changed him into something she no longer recognized. But it had changed her as well. People began to fear her—to fear the men she’d changed. Bitter, saddened, and heartbroken, she left the city—ran from not only her people but from Daegon. She never fully expected him to seek her out, but he did; and in turn she ran again and again... and again. Learning, becoming a better sorcerer of the dark arts. For him it was a game, but for her it was at first terrifying... and then agonizing as he tried to break every aspect of each new life she created. But soon, the chase slowed to a crawl. And in many ways, she found peace.
Over the years she had children; one of another body and two of her own body. The first born was Daegon’s child, the result of a rape when he managed to capture her at less than half strength during her travels away from Aleistair—her second husband. She never told anyone of the pregnancy or the rape after she got away; instead, she left her son with an old family friend after the birth, hoping against hope to keep him hidden from his father at all costs.
As for the twins, the two other children, they were Aleistair’s. When war broke out in the middle ages between the vampric courts and Aleistair, when it looked as though they were losing, Isara—then Isabella—sent them across the ocean to the—then undiscovered—Americas. She faked her death, sending her power and consciousness into the body of Aleistair’s wolf when their castle was being overrun. She could not save Aleistair, and, her body—which would not decompose—was taken by the courts. From there on out, she has been trying to find a way to get back to her body so that she can help her children in any way possible.
Powers/Weapons/Skills :: Isabella is a sorceress of the darker arts. Her form of sorcery is quite old, ancient, and not known to many anymore.
