Coraline`s Story
Coraline was turned a short time before the French Revolution by a cousin of King Louis the Sixteenth.
This was after being branded with a Fleur-de-lis as a consort for the king with his many ladies.
This was due to her sultry voice and beauty mark under her eye. Cora is one of seven vampire siblings
of a very old aristocratic vampire "family". Of the siblings, it is believed that only few remain alive.
During the 18th century the French citizenry had discovered the existence of vampires and revolted. During The Reign Of Terror these vampire nobles were hunted down and beheaded. To pass as human and escape the guillotine, Coraline`s bloodline developed the Mortal Cure. It is an organic compound of native plants that makes vampires temporarily human. Each dose can last around six months. Some of the plants used to make
the "cure" have gone extinct and there is only a small amount left.
There is much controversy over the cure as there could in our modern times again be a vampire revolt. Thus far
even in modern times there has been none one to successfully re create the compound. So the coven`s siblings have always taken turns with slumbers in the catacombs to protect the bloodline. Five awake Two asleep that is the way it has always been. Coraline being the only female of her siblings blood line has always been one of the awake. She has only experienced the catacombs as prolonged punishments.

Coraline is often found singing, goes out of her way to make others happy or smile. Spending hours in her exotic
gardens full of the world`s deadliest animals and plants. Inside is a old world exotic frog breeding room as
this is her favored pastime. It is mostly made up of tree and dart frogs. Bubbly. Sassy. Loud mouthed. A piercing smile gives away an old charm, with dimples. Prone to sadistic tendencies, she is a text book Paraphiliac. Opheliac. Dark. Sullen. Morbid with a secret kind nature.
Coraline`s weakness is her blood lust. She can`t help but he attracted to dark things, It often gets her in trouble and she is often punished in the catacombs for having ripper-like binges once in a while. Still, she does love her family and she would do anything for them.

her home country of France. Though in both countries she cannot go out during the
day during the summer months as the sun is to strong even for an Elder like herself.
Some people seem to view her as only a manipulative, cruel woman who wanted to toy with Mick at every
turn just for her own enjoyment. Coraline is often misunderstood and has had to learn to do dastardly
things to get what she wants out of life as a necessity of survival. She had a very difficult life, wealth or not,
out of necessity Cora learned how to use her looks and her wealth to get what she wanted out of life,
and that she simply didn`t know anything else. The elder vampire loved Mick because he showed her
empathy and compassion, something from her world she had forgotten after her need to just survive.
With her time in America Coraline always found she could blend in with the indigenous tribes the Inuit had been familiar with in the coastal parts of France.

the second name Catori and was known and an immortal war-force. as her body did not age through the rubber ball bands of time.
Along her way this was not her only coven She also sound RavenHall to be a second home and earned the tittle Sámi Scourge Raven
Coraline fought in wars beside them for their freedoms even. In the 50’s everything changed. Coraline truly loved Mick with everything in her that could love. She risked her freedom for it in the 50’s when she turned him without persimmon into the protected bloodline and was put away in the catacombs for it in 2007 for 16 years. This was done with a wooden steak made from a tree in France, since it was from her place of turning it was the equivalent of a human in shackles. Until her best friend whom she had sired Cynthia, risked her life to free her early from a 200 year punishment.
