Marx: Brother-Vampire (Alive) 890
Infant sister (deceased)
Bio:
Lynn was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1455 to wealthy landowning nobles. The family was greatly happy for their new addition, seeing as her mother wanted a girl for a long time now to pass down the family secret of how to maintain nobility. From those teachings a young Lynn learned how to get her way, but she made sure to never do so in a malicious way. This is actually how she met her closest friend, Alavda. Her family was on a trip to Nice,France to see her father's old friend. They were about 8 years old when she offered Alavda time outside of her house to the commoners area with her mother to see all the different sites. She would give her flowers she would see and talk about how the boys were smelly. From their their friendship bloomed and they went and saw each other once a year until Alavda met Thomas.
Lynn had no qualms with Thomas, she actually thought the man was a charmer herself but was surprised the day that Alavda wrote to her say that it would be a few days until she would hear from her again, then didn't. She wanted to go on the first caravan to France, but before she could, Alavda brother wrote to her to tell her the terrible news about Thomas. Something didn't click, even then, but she did not want to upset Alavda, so she chose to leave it from that moment on. After that though, the girl she grew up with was gone, no longer so cheery, but suppressed her emotions into herself. Sadly, they started to only ever right every other decade.
A few years after that, her parents tired to have one last child, but the infant did not survive past a week. Stricken with grief, the two siblings were left to raise themselves. Not long after, even the siblings parted ways, her brother staying with the family, though to this day, they still write to one another. She however, went to go to Alavda and travel with her.
After about a 400 years past, she found out from her brother's latest letter that her father was killed by a dhamphir as he traveled to see some of his friends in Italy, and her mother killing herself shortly after, not wanting to live without him. He was not sure what to do and really wanted her there to have support like the good old days. At this time Alavda had made a name for herself in the opera houses and was about to travel again, wanting to know if Lynn would join her. This time, she had to say no as she now had to travel home to finalize a few things. Alavda understood and wished her luck.
In her time that she was gone, her mother took back up politics and without someone to step in, her families livelihood would be in shambles. Her brother refused since "politicians are only snakes in the grass". She found herself laughing at that but not wanting her brother to struggle, she took on the task.
Fast forward about 150 years and she started to serve the UN an ambassador for Switzerland after WWII had happened and the US determined it was best to have a way to keep all countries from doing this again. She stayed with them and learned a few more tricks until about 2015, when she had decided enough was enough and she wasn't getting any younger. She tried to leave, but politicians stated that if she did, they would only destroy all that she had built up. She laughed in their faces and walked out. She gave her brother a heartfelt goodbye and told him to try to make a new name for the family as she left her home estate, for what she felt would be for good this time. She now finds herself on a small island since her life wants to once again, take her back to her childhood friend and live once again.
