At 18, Ava was married off to a much older man, one of his creditors. He used his daughter to clear his debt. This man was very abusive and after losing a child following beating, Ava nearly died, she had been married for 5 years. She was tended to by a nurse and doctor, who convinced her to leave, opening her the avenue into nursing that she has followed for the following 175 years. She credits these people with saving her life. She ended up nursing in the London slums. In 1832 she helped a man with an incurable tumour, now recognised as stomach cancer, to die, knowing that if she was found out she could hang. Within two months she was dead, a victim of the cholera outbreak that swept the area at the time. Following her death, her younger sister, Isabella, was then married to her husband. Ava attempted to protect her sister, and was consequently seen. Her sister was unable to cope with this and was committed to an asylum, where she died a year later. She took care of an elderly woman very early in her angelic career, and was consequently left her mountain home in her will. She was chosen after her death to become a Reaper, recognised for her act of mercy. In 1914, while nursing soldiers, back from the front, she was granted the power to heal. She floated around the world, moving from conflict to conflict, until stopping in France during WWII and joining the French Resistance Movement, and finding love with leader Ettienne DuPont, finally admitting to him what she was. He told her he loved her, and within hours had betrayed her and the rest of their cell to the Nazis. Ava and several others were placed in front of a firing squad, and shot seven times. One bullet lodged in her brain, and she was assumed dead. Of course she wasn’t dead, and was taken into a nunnery to recover. She had no memory and believed herself human for two years, and was convinced her husband was on the way to get her, which he never did, until she healed a young boy accidentally, and her memory returned. She was devastated, her innocence once again stolen. She floated around again until she landed in Rome in 1994, meeting Denver and becoming a fixture in the emergency department of the Aurelia Hospital, where she remains to this day. Even after being chosen as an angel, she was never able to have children as a direct result of her treatment at the hands of her first husband. Personality: A generally sunny personality, she is able to see right into the heart of people, and isn’t backward about letting them know it, in spite of not being able to tell anyone why. She rather dislikes the requirement of being secretive, as she is very much a people person. If she sees the value in someone, she will persevere with them, and rarely takes an insult personally. Ava is very loyal, loving and generous to a fault, mostly accepting of people’s foibles and forgiving of their faults. She’ll go to the ends of the earth to protect those she cares about and adores children. She hates the reaper aspect of her personality, and finds it emotionally draining, breaking down on occasion, particularly if she has a previous relationship with the person she has been required to reap. Likes: Kids, music, her friends Dislikes: Her job, guns, sleeping (due to dreams) {Other Info:} Anything extra you need us to know, or any obvious info about your character (accents, flirts with anything that moves, etc.) {Optional Information} (Not needed for the bio, but if you want to fill out this part, or just some of them, to give more info on your character and to put in your profile, go ahead! Can be updated/changed at any time.) Goals/Dreams: Not to be a reaper any more Talents or Hobbies: Loves to play piano and sing Style of Dress: Tends to be a jeans and tee’s sort of girl when not in uniform, but she does scrub up pretty well. Family: None living Friends: Denver, Nina Enemies: Demons in general Religion: Kinda Christian Astrological Sign: Gemini Soundtrack: Santana ft Rob Thomas- Smooth Sexual Orientation: Straight Relationship Status: Single Past Relationships: Ettienne DuPont and Edmund Mendez Sample RP Ava always knew it was a good idea to avoid any situation where her stomach dropped just thinking about it, but as usual, she had let herself get sidetracked by the emotional feed back rising off the building and jumped in feet first. Again. She was completely unarmed and had no way of accessing anything to defend herself with without shifting, and she was too exposed to do that, so on she went. The fear in the building was so strong, she could nearly smell it, and coupled with the smell of demon and the faint tang of human blood, it was nauseating. Even worse than a Saturday night on the wards, but she’d smelt worse in wars, and stepped into the darkness, alone and not knowing what she was about to face, but about to face it anyway. Sample Journal Entry So, I’ve been alive two hundred years and change, seen everything change, fashions and human rights practices and even the way people talk, but the people they basically stay the same, at their core, some are decent and some…some are not, as an empath you learn to tell the difference pretty quickly.
