[b]Background:[/b] Before there was Ivory, there was [url=https://i.imgur.com/4jB3DUz.jpg]Claire Angelina Alistair[/url], a beautiful English woman who had many potential suitors, being from a decently well off family. She had long, jet black hair, and piercing blue eyes, and a body most would have called 'perfect.' Of all of the men she could have chosen however, she had allowed herself to be deceived by the worst of them. He was an incredibly handsome man, charming, charismatic, it was hard to resist him, as if she was under his spell, wrapped around his little finger. In a sense, she really was, because this man was no ordinary human, he was a vampire. A vampire who wanted this gorgeous, unattainable woman. She was deceived, and once the vampire had gotten what he wanted, he disappeared without a trace, but not before leaving Claire a little gift. A little baby girl, and that baby was Ivory. Having this child had essentially ruined Claire's life. Her parents disowned her, calling her a cheap whore who threw away her chances at a bright future. They left her just enough to get by, and threw her out. Left with no choice, she was forced to keep her daughter, the risk of an abortion having been much too great. Ivory had been hated from the moment she was born. For a moment she thought maybe she could drop her off at some orphanage, but she was born different. She held pure, white hair, and when she had been born, she cried like any other baby would, but when she opened her eyes, they were crimson, the color of blood. Claire was horrified, knowing this child was not normal. Then, as if nothing had happened, the eyes shifted to the same piercing blue color as her mother's. As Ivory grew up, she began to look more and more like her mother, but the only thing Claire saw was the striking resemblance to that damned man who had ruined her life. She never bothered to personally raise her, having the midwife handle all of her needs, and essentially neglected her while she went out and did as she pleased. Over the years her hatred for her daughter only grew, to the point she began to keep her locked up in the attic that had become her new 'room' where she would never have to see her. Her albino-like appearance was not typically accepted in those times, Claire was afraid people would think her to have bore the child of a devil, which she herself came to suspect. Just catching sight of her daughter threw her into a rage, causing her to throw things, or shout at her to disappear from her sight. She found whatever excuse she could to not stay home, having resorted to seeking the company of rich men, hoping one could pull her out from the nightmare she was living. Ivory had come to comprehend why her mother hated her so. She had been deceived by that man, and she was born into this world because of that mistake. By the time the girl reached the age of eighteen, she had begun to sneak out of the house whenever her mother wasn't around, having grown tired of having to live a life in seclusion. She'd wear a cloak to cover herself. The girl hadn't wanted to be out long, she just wanted to see how normal people lived, to see what it was her mother was forcing her to miss. She was tired of living hidden away, having to act like she did not exist. One night upon returning, her mother had come home early, her 'date' had seemingly not gone well. She was intoxicated, and having discovered her daughter had sneaked out, her anger boiled. Ivory pleaded for her mother to forgive her, but she was simply too angry to see reason. [b]"Why don't you understand! You are not normal! [i]They[/i] know you're not normal! I'm so sick of having to hide and take care of you. I just want to live my own God damn life! I wish I had never given birth to you!" [/b]She shouted, firmly grasping a knife from the kitchen counter and running at her daughter. Ivory was shocked, falling over as her mother pushed her down. She grabbed onto her wrists, trying to stop her mother from piercing her as she tried to reason with her. She was just angry, she was just drunk, she tried to tell herself, but it was a lot more than that. Her mother refused to listen to her words. Ivory's eyes glowed crimson for the first time in years as she fought for her life. It was in that moment she realized she was stronger, and roughly pushed her mother off of her, attempting to scramble to her feet. With one last desperate attempt before Ivory could get away, Claire threw the knife. The girl flinched, closing her eyes to prepare for the impact that never came. When she opened them, the knife had stopped just a few centimeters from her face, trembling in midair. Ivory was in shock. There was a mixture of hurt, disbelief.. but most of all anger. Anger that only grew as her mother screamed profanities at her, calling her a freak, calling her the child of a devil. Her mother.. truly wanted her gone. These thoughts clouded her mind, and before she could react, the knife turned, and shot in her mother's direction, and buried itself into her. The sweet smell of blood began to fill her nose, but she was in too much of a shock at what had just happened to care. Alone and afraid of what it was she was feeling, but most of all frightened of the fate that would await her if she stayed, Ivory ran out of the house, and never looked back.
