She wants to have a family after her own. She would also like to find Thomas and get answers from him…or kill him…okay, maybe not kill him, she doesn’t want him dead but she could just smack that man!

Being alone, dying alone, heights, hurting someone she loves
Backstory
Family:
Sylvain (Father) - Vampire, Deceased
Chantal (Mother) - Vampire, Deceased
Gaston (Elder Brother), - Vampire Deceased
Lily (Younger Sister) - Vampire, Deceased
Bio:
Born in Nice, France in 1457, Alavda’s early life was not a happy one. When she was seven years old, her mother died while giving birth to her younger sister, Lily. Lily died hours later, too weak to survive her premature birth. After her mother’s death, her father was never the same. He went was a jovial man, a good father, to someone cold and distant - especially to Alavda since she looked so much like her mother. He didn’t neglect her, however. He made sure she was taken care of as any father ought to. He handed her over to governesses and tutors to teach her all that a young lady of quality should know. She excelled in singing. Her teacher said she had the voice of a songbird. She hoped to please her father with her voice, but she never knew if she did since he never stayed very long in the room with her. After a while, she told herself that she accepted that her father was simply emotionally gone. But she felt cold.
One day, her life suddenly discovered a more springlike state when she met Thomas Steele. She fell hard for him. One day, she ran away with him to marry him. Before they could get to a church, however, Thomas took her for a stroll in the woods…and bit her. He drained her of so much blood that she passed out. She woke up hours later in the woods, covered in the fallen autumn leaves. This left her confused and heartbroken. She was found by her brother. he was on the run himself. He told her that their father had just been killed by hunters and that they had to run. She was too weak from bloodless to argue anything. He carried her off to safety. he died years later at the blade of a Damphir. Little does she know that Thomas’s Father, Felix, who has the ability to invade people’s dreams and place a false reality targeted her. He was the one who drained her of her blood and placed her in the woods. He is also responsible for her family’s deaths, but she does not know this either.
For years she made a living from various rolls in Opera, refusing to take money from those she accidentally killed. Currently she is traveling around, taking a break from the stage for a few decades. Who knows where life will take her?
The End of the Segment
Strengths:
Alavda is charming, seemingly more charming than she is because of her French accent that she never quite shook off. She also sometimes uses her looks and accent to make people think she is dumber than she actually is. This has helped her feed in the past Her kindness is probably her greatest strength. She knows what it is like to be alone, so she will make sure that none of her friends feels that way if she can help it.
Weaknesses:
She can be quite gullible. She gets rather gloomy at times, having lost all of her family. Even though she deeply resents Thomas for what he did to her, she still loves him
Special Ability:
She can see what someone has done in the past by touching them with her bare hands. She can somewhat control it, but she wears gloves most of the time so that she doesn’t see what others would rather she wouldn’t.
How does your character handle the bloodlust
She usually takes blood from the donated supply, but if she needs to she will feed on someone who wouldn’t be missed (in case she takes too much from them)
What side does your character take (Islanders or FASA):
Islanders
