[Center][h3]Sofia Lufkin[/h3] Female | 23 | Mage Reborn [/Center] [Center][url=http://i.imgur.com/8BbevaY.jpg][img]http://i.imgur.com/8BbevaYm.jpg[/img][/url] 5'8" Slender build and dark grey eyes. [/Center] [b]Personality: [/b]Sofia is a carefree individual and has very little concern to other beings. She amuses herself by toying with others, especially the tortured ones, as she finds their tragedies to be a captivating subject to pass the time. When inspired by an event, she devotes her entire attention to capturing that moment with paint and is utterly consumed by the process. Sofia can seem cold and emotionless, but one look at her artwork shows that she can in fact be very passionate. She observes beyond what people say and looks deep into their core, as if searching for the truth behind their eyes. Sofia nonetheless shows proper etiquette and can entertain anyone in conversation. She is rather straightforward and is not afraid to speak her mind. Verbal confrontation is her forte, and she does love a good argument. She is very jaded with bloodshed, neither finding joy or disgust in it. To her, blood was once a means of survival, but as a reborn, it does not faze her. Sofia actively avoids physical confrontation and violence, not out of fear, but rather out of sheer discomfort over having to physically exert herself. Despite her former life as a vampire, Sofia has never directly killed a single being in all of her existence. [b]Unique Skillset(s): [/b] Brilliant artist with eidetic memory retained from her being a vampire. She is also an adept empath, which was further amplified to the point that she can see the aura of a person's emotional state. Sofia has the capacity to cast basic magic rituals on her own, and uses artifacts and items to cast even greater magic. Because of her status as a reborn, her scope of inherent magic is far greater than an average mage. Sofia also possesses a preternatural charm about her that causes people to let their guard down. [b]Soul Relic and Ability: [/b] [Center][img]https://36.media.tumblr.com/41dca0a7e2a730b226240a0398a5f522/tumblr_njvrgh3kJO1tj7g8ho1_500.jpg[/img][/Center] Basic Function: A set of paintbrushes that can turn paintings of objects into reality. This power is limited to objects that are commonplace. Rare artifacts drawn can only be turned real by using her soul as a catalyst. The objects disappear after a single use. Special Funciton: Can turn rare objects or even conceptual objects into reality. The rarer the object or more difficult the concept, the more of her soul is used up. [b]Former Name: [/b] Anna Volkoff [b]Former Gender: [/B] Female [b]Former Age: [/b] 146 (stopped aging at 17) [b]Former Species: [/b]Vampire [hider=Former Appearance] [Center][img]http://i.imgur.com/EvJni3E.jpg[/img][/Center][/Hider] [b]History: [/b]Anna was born in 1874 to a family of poor peasants in Russia. She was sold at the age of seven and auctioned off to a wealthy vampire Anton Volkoff who intended to devour her. Even as a human, she possessed a charm about her that kept her from being bled dry. Captivated by her beauty, the vampire kept her and groomed her to be an elegant young woman. She was taught how to read and write, dance, sing, play the piano, and learned proper etiquette. At age twelve, she was so refined that no one would have dared guess that she was actually born from poverty. At the age of seventeen, Anna contracted a terminal illness, forcing Anton to sire her, thereby solidifying his status as her father. As a vampire, Anna slowly forgot about her own childhood and fully embraced her status as a Volkoff. Anna was Anton's favorite among his sired children and offered her only the finest the world had to offer. She never had to hunt for herself, nor did she ever have to take a human's life, as she found the act of sucking the blood directly from a human unrefined. She was even given a precious necklace that warded off the deadly effects of sunlight so she could bask in the day, which at the time was extremely rare for vampires. In 1902, the Volkoffs moved to Aldred to avoid the political turmoil in Russia to enter a new stage of politics. Anton had great ambition in establishing a ruling class of vampires in Aldred, successfully overthrowing the previous coven in a matter of months. He wanted to expand his power whilst avoiding a war with the other supernatural communities, and spent a great deal of time developing healthy diplomatic relations with them. All the while, Anna, wholly uninterested in politics, spent her time with non vampires. She was often found with a coven of witches, learning the craft and gathering magical artifacts so she could use magic. She had numerous lovers throughout the century and had left every single one of the moment she grew bored. She did not limit herself to other vampires, and instead, allowed all manner of men to court her. Little did she know that her lack of concern for her admirers would eventually lead to her downfall. At the turn of the 21st century, she caught the attention of a young sorcerer who fell madly in love with her. The sorcerer spent two years trying to court her, but Anna was not particularly impressed and had continued to lead him on for her own entertainment. When she finally turned him down, the sorcerer's love turned into a vile hatred that consumed him. He lashed out in anger by destroying her necklace midday, causing Anna to slowly burn to her death. Not one day later, the sorcerer was banished from the Mage Association and was executed by Anton Volkoff.
