[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Birthplace[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Though her parents hail from Poland and Lithuania--Her mother and father respectively--Lillian was born after her family emigrated to the United States, specifically Detroit, Michigan.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Former Occupation[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Former Army Military Police before transferring to the city of Osiris to join the homicide branch of their police department.[/color] 
 
[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Appearance[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]An intermingled combination of flaxen and umber strands color her waist-length hair while icy oculars and devilishly arched brows create an intimidating gaze amidst her unpredictable countenance and slender face; Lillian Eldritch is a purpose-driven soul and her physicality supports this notion. A long frame highlights her proportional contour, bodily assets developed just enough to distinguish a definitive gender, but not in such a gratuitous manner that one might mistake her for a vixen. Her limbs remain lean though distinctively shaped and sculpted from a lifetime of vigorous activity and a regular regimen ingrained into the fabric of her being. A tattoo is the final piece of her corporeal individuality though it is hidden on the whole of her back underneath the various garments she dons for the outside world. The marking depicts an angry, yellow-eyed black dragon seemingly in mid-flight, twirling around the space her back affords before appearing to head straight towards anyone looking on from behind the woman. It's wings extend from each side of her upper latissimi dorsi and curl around her shoulders. It is the sole tattoo inked on her body and its significance remains a closely guarded secret.

Varying types of attire suit the personal tastes of Lillian, but she most often chooses sheer comfort over outfits that would likely leave long-lasting impressions--these kinds of clothing are saved for special occasions of which there are few. Standard denim bottoms, t-shirts, leather jackets, and sports attire are the regularly cycled articles of choice though the one area of indulgence afforded is footwear. Lillian very rarely steps into tennis shoes or sneakers, opting for an array of fashionable boots instead. The single constant uniting all her clothing decisions is the fitting nature of everything she wears.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Personality[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Lillian Eldritch, though seemingly purpose-driven, is less mysterious than she is perplexing. Her persona is a study in dichotomous character, a contrast revealing how an individual is comprised of multiple sides and traits that come together to try and form a cohesive whole--a truly unique person, some might say. Outwardly, she is callous, a darkly humorous undertow causing some to question the true feelings behind the words that slither out of her unfiltered mentality. Her dialogue can be cold and venomous, yet it is also honest and direct where others would sugarcoat or wrap their conversation in a more gentle sort of eloquence. She sees others around her, but does not consider how her ways may affect them until she is already indirectly influencing their lives. Inwardly, Lillian is a torn and slightly confused being. She balks at the anger and intensity of her own words and actions while questioning their necessity--does this need to go that far? Do [i]I[/i] need to be the one to do it? She is not the best conversationalist, yet she seemingly seeks out social interaction in spite of her rather ill-tempered mannerisms. 

Overall, Lillian is an eternal work-in-progress that outwardly indulges in unhealthy and unappealing habits, all the while trying to temper her inward torrent of traits and character flaws that bring her two halves together to create an intriguing kind of personality.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Hobbies / Interests[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Lillian actually enjoys reading as one of her major interests. Considering the nature of occupations, she finds reading to be a relaxing reprieve from the mentally and physically demanding duties she is accustomed to. Though she tries to fit in time to get through her many books, reading is not the only hobby she has. Funny enough, Lillian also used to be a huge follower of several TV series. Most that know or encounter her never guess that she would have the patience to sit in front of a television, but Netflix and cable were her best friends before the incident.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Skills / Talents[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Lillian is the definition of jack-of-all-trades, master of none. Joining the military taught her to handle weapons and survive when there is no other choice, but it was never having good aim or being adept at combat that helped her to excel in the field of security and law enforcement. Her one true talent was always being able to completely cut herself off from emotion, if such a thing can even be called a talent. Even in the midst of the most gruesome and depraved situations, Lillian was always the most composed one in the room and her superiors used her to the fullest for this reason. Unfortunately, it would be this very skill that would cause her to walk down the dark path she chose.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Motivation/Crime Committed[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]In spite of her past, Lillian was eventually arrested and charged with serial murder as well as kidnapping, torture, and multiple counts of assault and battery. She had committed these crimes over a period of years and was finally caught after the trail of evidence lead back to her and she slipped up in her latest attempt. However, the motivation for these crimes began with the Executives Consortium. 

Lillian was never one for the magically inclined community. Her husband was normal and because she, herself, was normal, their daughter was born as a normal human being as well. Her time in the military had shown her just how much worse crime and war could be when it involved the use of spells. The devastation came when her husband was killed in the scene of a rare, magically-charged battle between a team of Executives and a team of slightly formidable robbers. The damage from the battle killed and injured many more than usual and though the Consortium was held responsible for the carnage even after catching the criminals, Lillian never forgave the organization. She began a practice she had secretly started with a group of like-minded individuals in the military and kidnapped newer, less experienced Executives, torturing and killing them in a misguided attempt at quelling her own grief. 

Where in the military she could get away with discretely offing people with her own team, the Consortium quickly noticed the murders and sought to catch the lone woman when she least expected it. Upon her arrest, her daughter was taken and Lillian Eldritch was sentenced with the harshest punishment available due to the compounding charges of her criminal acts in the military on top of the murders in the city. Taking into considering the fact that she was current law enforcement did her no favors with the Consortium. She, along with several others, were executed for their crimes on in the fall of the present year.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]History[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]Lillian Amaya Eldritch was born to a middle-class family on the north side of Detroit, Michigan. Originally, her parents met in Poland and emigrated to the US seeking better opportunities for a more prosperous life. Her father worked in many different occupations before finally settling on starting his own business; he began a small company that specialized in software engineering and went on to grow the company into a respectable cyber-security firm. Lillian's mother was always a stay at home type after the emigration though she proudly served in the Lithuanian Special Operations Force back in her home country and before marrying her husband. Aleksy Eldritch met Regina when she traveled to Poland on assignment and the two completely hit it off from there, staying in contact with one another until Regina's service ended and the duo could marry and head for the United States. 

Once his company took off, Aleksy began putting in more man hours, trying to create the life he had always dreamed of for his family. Though Regina respected her husband's drive and determination, the loneliness that had slowly developed shifted into a sharp resentment that she held within and hid whenever he did deign to come home every once in a while. These feelings eventually led to a pattern of affairs that Lillian grew from not understanding to carrying the burden of keeping quiet. To take her mind off of the parental drama, the middle-school aged Lillian stayed out of the house and spent most of her time outside and in the city. Detroit was not usually the place to walk around and sight see, but the young girl had always been fascinated by how different people could be and the many facets of life that seemed to scream at her as he simply walked down one street after another. 

When she was caught and sentenced to the family property after school, Lillian took up reading and evolving her imagination instead. It did not take long for the love of reading to replace going out and imagining how others might be in the privacy of their lives. Books allowed one to partake of any world they wished and it was this kind of wonder that clung to the girl as she continued her grade school journey. It was on her graduation to high school that her parents decided to get a divorce. Aleksy had hired a private investigator to follow and document his wife's life unbeknownst to her and once he had the evidence, he went to work to securing his assets and making sure Regina would leave the marriage with as little as possible. In the heat of hearings and court proceedings, it was decided that Lillian would remain in her father's custody and that day in court was the final time she would ever lay eyes on her mother.

When high school finally began, Lillian had shed her previous child-like wonderment and bubbly self. Her attitude became much more subdued and reserved and the teenager was content to simply engage in her studies and nothing more. In spite of her good grades, her teachers noted the attitude and multiple counselors were employed to speak with the girl. They all came to the conclusion that she had cut herself off from the emotions she harbored for the breakup of her parents and the actions of her mother in particular, but Lillian always dismissed them. Without failing her studies and participating in mischievous behavior, the only thing counselors and therapists could do was to respect her wishes and let her wallow in the despair she had created for herself. As his daughter neared her high school graduation, Aleksy tried one last attempt to reconnect and began to share stories of Regina's service to her country's military. Though she did not revert completely, Lillian did find a piece of the curiosity she once had for life and, inspired by the stories, decided to join the US Army out of high school. 

Lillian's service in the military allowed her first encounters with casters and all their various spells. She had always heard and seen stories on the news about people manifesting spells, but her family had only ever used talismans to make life easier once her father's company began to make a profit. As she traveled the world on orders, she was treated to sights of people casting spells naturally and was even able to meet and work with members of the Executives Consortium on non-dangerous cases involving criminals who used magic. Contrary to her outward reactions however, Lillian began to developed a deep-seeded distrust of the magical community. Having that kind of power did not sit well with her and her subtle expression of such opinions eventually caught the ear of a like-minded group within her platoon. 

The unit invited her into their circle and explained how they had been making sure the most dangerous of these casters were taken out of the picture permanently, for the safety of all. Though Lillian refuted their beliefs at first, she could not deny that the idea of a band of casters using their power for destruction was too dangerous to just leave to the hope that the Consortium would catch them all. With this small team, she began helping in their off-book kidnappings. They team would capture casters near whatever duty station they happened to assigned to at the moment and torture them before outright murdering. Lillian participated in these activities for years until she finally left the military due to meeting her husband and becoming pregnant and transferred to the city of Osiris. 

There she joined the homicide department of the OPD after having her daughter and swore off the kidnappings. She served in the department for two years before tragedy struck. She was called to the scene of a battle between a team of Executives and a team of criminal casters who had tried to rob a well known private security corporation. In the heat of the battle, many had been injured and some even killed. Lillian's husband was among dead and it was because the bank he worked at happened to be near the site of the robbery. The effects of the various spells cast had decimated the building, injuring most inside, but killing the others. Wracked with anger and grief that the Consortium would be so sloppy, Lillian began her crusade once more, this time kidnapping the least experienced Executives and torturing them for information before killing them.

Unlike the military and the benefit of traveling to different duty stations though, Lillian could not avoid the sight of the Consortium for long. Once they caught evidence of their own being murdered, they launched a thorough investigation which resulted in Lillian being arrested and her daughter being forcibly taken. Lillian was sentenced to death after it was discovered that her criminal behavior stemmed as far back as her military days and her execution date was set for the fall of that year. While on death row, the former MP could only reflect on her anger and wrath towards the Consortium as well as the fact that they refused to tell her what they had done with her daughter. The day before her execution day, she was beaten by prison guards for headbutting the priest who had come to deliver last rites.[/color]

His parents both worked with literature with his father being a novelist and his mother a historian. Aleksy himself had always been interested in technology however. Though his family did not own computers or anything beyond basic smartphones, his curiosity for how things worked flourished in all aspects of his life. After graduating high school, Aleksy went to university on a scholarship and majored in computer-engineering with a focus in Computer Science. 

He is a well-read, educated man who is usually has all his emotions under control. His major flaw was always his more obsessive qualities. Once Aleksy got into something, he threw himself completely into it and this caused him to lose friends and associates over the years because he would ignore them to work on some project or another. He met his wife, Regina, when she came to Poland and he was brought in to network on her unit's server mainframe.[/color]

[indent][indent][b]Regina Eldritch[/b][/indent][/indent] - [color=darkgray]Originally born Regina Aureli, she was born to a family of military officers in Lithuania. Being born to military parents, Regina always held the burden of living up to her family's expectations and to that end, she made sure she excelled in whatever she did. Whether it was her schoolwork, cooking, exercising, or competing in sports, Regina always made sure she was at the top of her class. She had aspirations of swimming professionally before she quickly decided to follow in her family's footsteps and join the Lithuanian Armed Forces. She began in their land force before her excellence of service allowed her the opportunity to be offered membership with the Special Operations Force. She took on classified missions in this capacity until she met her husband, Aleksy Eldritch, while on assignment in Poland. She was charmed by his knowledgeable persona and his matter-of-fact mannerisms. She thought it fit well with her own standard of pursuing excellence. 

Regina, in spite of her upbringing, is a boisterous sort of person. She is an opinionated, decisive kind of person and gets along well in most social circles. Her major flaw stems from her upbringing. Being raised the way she was, Regina was taught to expect certain things of people and when they don't live up to her expectations, she had a habit of quickly losing respect for that person which would result in any number of negative actions towards them. It was these qualities that resulted in the downfall of her marriage to Aleksy.[/color]

[indent][sup][sup][h3][i]Significant Others[/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][/indent][indent][indent][b]Adam Ryder [Husband][/b][/indent][/indent] - [color=darkgray]Adam Ryder was Lillian Eldritch's husband. He was a man who worked for the corporate business-to-business department of a large bank in Osiris securing contracts and international clientele for the company. He met Lillian on one of his business trips to England and the two quickly forged a bond with one another. As Adam was nearing the end of his trip, Lillian coincidentally was nearing the end of her service and as soon as it came time for reenlistment, she declined the opportunity and left with Adam back to the United States. She found out she was pregnant as soon as she got to the city of Osiris. 

Adam was a businessman through and through. He was good with people and he left an impression on those who witnessed him in action as he navigated through deals and clients like they were second nature. Though he did have a hectic schedule, he always seemed to be able to make time to see Lillian and their newborn daughter as often as possible. His job allowed them to live in a more upscale district of Osiris although the family was only upper middle-class without the wildly varying economic standards of the sprawling city.[/color]

[indent][indent][b]Janae Eldritch [Daughter][/b][/indent][/indent] - [color=darkgray]Janae Eldritch is Adam and Lillian's daughter. She was born in the first year Lillian settled in Osiris. She was taken from Lillian after her mother was arrested for multiple crimes against the Consortium and the military and moved to an undisclosed location.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Magic[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][indent][b]Devour[/b][/indent] - [color=darkgray]This is a spell that concentrates an aura of black, wispy energy around Lillian's forearms and hands. It allows her to absorb and dissolve the matter in solid objects, disintegrating the object entirely. If used on living creatures, it allows her to absorb their vitality, killing them after enough has been taken. This can heal her wounds if she is hurt before casting the spell. The spell will end when the object she is touching disintegrates completely or when the living creature she is touching dies. In the case of living beings however, siphoning vitality is a constant absorption of magical energy which means Lillian must often cease the spell in order to avoid poisoning or worse.[/color]

[indent][b]Regurgitate[/b][/indent] - [color=darkgray]This spell allows Lillian to reflect an attack back on the attacker. Projectile based attacks are absorbed and shot back at the opponent through small bolts of magical energy though if she is close enough, Lillian can touch the offender and allow them to experience the same pain and damage she herself just took.[/color]

[sup][sup][h3][i][u]Other[/u][/i][/h3][/sup][/sup][color=darkgray]- Lillian enjoys smoking though she was never addicted to it. It was just something she did every once in a while and she hid it from her husband. 
- Though she may not look it, Lillian eats like a pig. She eats enough that some say food is her real hobby and she just reads to hide that fact.[/color]
