007. FASHION/STYLE•

Calista expresses her personality through her clothing and accessory choices. Her wardrobe usually consists of bright colours. She has a way of making even the most clashing of colours look good on her. Depending on her mood that day, she may wear something more sophisticated, mixing a bright colour with black or outlandish with a mixing of colours. She would rather heels to flats, giving her at least the illusion of height.

Cali prefers skinny jeans and short skirts to anything else and would reject anything else as quickly as it had been revealed to her. Her choice in tops is completely different. One day she may prefer a simple graphic tee and sweater or a low cut halter and the next, the opposite idea.

008. SPECIFIC MORALS• Not necessarily a moral but, No regrets.
009. PERSONALITY OVERVIEW•

Calista has such a bubbly personality that she tries to get along with everyone, and in most cases it works. Everyone is in her ‘good books’ until they really piss her off, and that takes a lot to do. There are very few people in the world that she would, or could, truly hate. Anyone who messes with her friends, has to deal with her. She may be 5’ 3” but she is a fierce, colourful ball of fire waiting to explode.

She’ll help anyone in need, but don’t expect her to ask you for help. She’s an extremely stubborn, quick-witted, and sarcastic. With everything she’d been through with her Mentor

[/b], she doesn’t trust all that easily. She may act like she trusts you completely but, in all reality it’s a charade; a false emotion. You have to earn her trust and, in rare cases, her respect. Most times, she will respect you until proven otherwise. And, it doesn’t take much to prove you’re unworthy of her respect.

Cali is a sweet natured girl for the most part. She’s really an open book, anything you want to know about her, she’ll tell you. No questions asked, unless it seems like you’re writing a novel or you’re a cop. She doesn’t like cops; in any country. She loves to help animals and people alike but she’s more trusting with the animals. They can’t stab you in the back.

005. HISTORY OVERVIEW•

Cali grew up basically in the dark. Whether it was because she never got used to the time zones or because of other reasons, no one really knew but she slept the day away and spent the night learning and being her anomalous self. She is the daughter of a Romanian Diplomat and a doctor. Her mother stays in Bucharest to work at the children’s hospital of which she is the founder. Cali used to travel with her father all over the world and eventually deciding to keep a semi-permanent residence in New York. She still travels around the world, visiting her family in Romania and France, and just visiting LA, and other places around the world. Being a Diplomat’s daughter does have its perks for her. She has enough money in her numerous bank accounts to last her a few lifetimes, which works well for her.

Cali was turned accidentally, really, or so she thought. He hadn’t meant to change her from what she was; human. Although, how he "hadn't meant to" is beyond Cali. Late one night, while having some "Midnight Fun", he bit her, practically draining her of her blood. Feeling terrible about it, he gave her his blood, not realzing that that would change her, if she survived. She did and he couldn't live with that. Or, so he said, anyway. Later to find out it was a farse.

His name was Brett Harris. He was her first love. A love Cali thought to be true. He thought otherwise. Brett taught her everything she’d need to know about her new life. They had a wild, reckless affair spanning 6 months and too many countries to count that ended in undead heart break. He left her a letter, hidden in her favourite book; Three Fates by Nora Roberts. The note read:

My dearest love,

Please read this with an open mind. You’ll find this after I’m gone. You won’t find my ashes, they’ll be gone. I don’t regret what we shared, I can’t regret that. I love you too much to ever regret anything I’ve done with you. However I had regretted changing you. I shouldn’t have done that, but the feelings running through me where too intense and I wanted to share that intensity with you.

I’m sorry, my dear. I will always love you, in life and in death,
-B

Cali had broken down when she’d found that letter but it had strengthened her as well. It had brought her to the light of the situation at hand. She was, essentially, alone in the world once again and needed to pick herself up off the floor and get back to her life. She hadn’t had to change much, since she’d already lived in the night. Now, she just needed to use the abilities she had and make her life better than it was before. And, this time she wouldn’t bring herself to fall that hard again.

She was twenty-one when turned and she killed her ’mentor’ two years later. He’d lied to her, had lied through their whole relationship and when he had no use for her, threw her away like she was a rag doll. She found out he was alive, sought him out and killed him. Mercilessly cutting his head from his body with the dagger she carried with her at all times. She burned his corpse when she found him; mocking her on her own turf in Bucharest. Without a thought, she ripped him apart, drenched him in gasoline and lit the bastard on fire. She never regretted that for an instant and now she can live her life freely.

Yo', my name is Robyn, and I've been the walking dead for 19 years, and I've been grave robbing for less than a year, I dug up lovely Crimson Kiss by means of Google and adore it.

001. ANYTHING ELSE?• questions, comments, anything...
002. ROLE PLAY SAMPLE•

Calista stepped into the darkened street, from her building on the Upper East Side. Her family’s money had purchased that apartment, and several others like it all over the world. The Delamater’s were, and still are a very prominent family in France and more specifically, Romania; Cali’s birthplace. She’d pulled her colourful hair in a low bun, resting lightly on the top of her neck. She needed speed, an open highway and her favourite little toy; a 2005 electric blue Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12. Carrying the helmet in her hand, she walked into the alley connected to her building and hit the code for the garage next door.

Five minutes later, clad in a leather jacket, bright yellow skinny jeans and black stiletto boots, Cali took off down the road, heading for the first bridge she came to. The sun had set roughly twenty minutes ago, so she had enough time to get to her family’s house in the Hamptons. Cali was young, single, free to do whatever she chose, and she loved every minute of it.

Her parents would worry, of course. But, not about her being a Vampire. Their background relied heavily on the myths and legends of such creatures. ”Little Miss Vampire” had been Cali’s family’s nickname for her for as long as she could remember. They’d rarely see her before sunset anyway. Even her schooling had to be done at night. She was the renegade of the family; the black sheep. She hadn’t wanted to go into politics like the rest of her family.

She thought it was bad enough that she was a Diplomats’ daughter and a partial psychic. Her ability to know what someone was thinking and be able to feel what they were feeling was uncanny and yet, exciting. Most of the time she knew what was going to be said before it was and could have that added time to think about her answer.

Turning another corner, Cali raced through the intersection and continued on her path towards the beach; her thoughts sifting through the thoughts of the drivers’ ahead of her, so she could avoid collisions and get to her destination faster. She weaved in and out of the usual New York traffic; just barely missing the back of an SUV.

If that was any indication of what the night was going to be like for her, Cali should have turned around and went straight back to her apartment. But, she wasn't one to hide from danger. She'd face it head on and kick its ass.

Behind the tinted guard of her dark blue helmet, Cali's full lips twitched. Her lips wanting to smile at Fate's plans for her night and the thoughts racing through her head. She sighed, letting her lips win the war and producing a superiorly brilliant smile. "It's going to be a great night," she thought, turning onto the on-ramp and gunning the bike into moving faster than what should have been possible. God love the invention of Illegal Modifcations.
