RACE: Vampire♦ THE CHARACTER ♦
HEIGHT: 5’9
HAIR COLOR: Black
EYE COLOR: Dark Green
MISC: There’s no doubting she is an extremely beautiful woman, with even features and pale skin her looks are generally the first thing people notice about her, especially as she isn't afraid to use them. But her beauty is a cold one and is only skin deep, there is nothing soft about Ursula unless she wishes you to see something soft and gentle there. Otherwise, her countenance is cold and fierce, and her eyes highlight this with a deep icy green colour usually framed by immaculate makeup. She stands at an elegant 5'9", has excellent posture and an air of superiority for the most part. She has long raven black hair Her style choices are really whatever she needs to wear in order to give off the right appearance. If she wishes to be taken as sweet an innocent then she favours light feminine colours and simple garb usually of a medieval style and cut. What she actually prefers to wear however are long flowing gowns that are full of opulence and grandeur. Blacks, silvers, gold's, feather's, metalwork and leather are her preference, usually extremely figure hugging and flattering at the top and flaring out into a long dramatic gown or cloak. She will wear anything that flatters her and enhances her beauty basically. She also tends to dress to her mood If she is feeling fairly happy then the colours tend to be opulent and a little lighter but the darker his mind is the more organic and dark her clothing becomes.
PERSONALITY: Let's just say Ezna is the most charming of the two
When it comes down to it, Ursula is a bully. She enjoys belittling, insulting and causing emotional or physical pain to others, because it makes him feel like she is in control.
Ursula’'s personality has been forged from all her experiences in life and not many of them have had any kind of positive influence on her at all. From a young age she was poor and was quick to learn of the cruelty of others though she considers herself lucky enough to have survived through that, it undoubtedly formed her core personality from a very young age. The first thing she remembers is a painful grief at the loss of her mother. like took everything from Ursula, they took her home, they took her family, Life broke her heart, Life took her life and forced her into servitude, Life took her innocence and they told her the only thing she had of value to them was her beauty and when that was gone she would be ruined and thrown aside to the dogs for all they cared. She believed that because she had lived it and experienced it first hand and she embraced it and turned it around to suit herself and make her stronger instead of weaker.
Ursula has lived several lifetimes beyond her own time and along the way she has amassed a great wisdom and knowledge of the world around her, in this time and the things she does and the abuse that plagued her own youth have poisoned her mind to borderline madness. Her behaviour can be erratic and melodramatic, one minute her rage can be simmering and hot and violent and the next she can be soft and almost motherly, this sort of behaviour is what she uses to cow the weak into serving her, ruling them by fear as she has little capacity for kindness within her heart anymore. It's really the behaviour of a bully and abuser, she has become the thing she loathed so much when she was younger though she is blind to it. She isn't below-using cruelty and guilt and then gentleness and soothing kindness to bend people to her will.
Manipulation is Ursula’s talent now, she knows how to work the hearts of mortals and her beauty to wrap them around her finger with pretty smiles and gentle, polite behaviour if she must or really whatever is needed to get them onto her side to use them. She motivates people with lies and promises and seduction and then she uses them and throws them away when she's done with them and they're of no use to her anymore. She doesn't form friendships with people at all, aside from her brother Ursula has never been close to any other person before because none of them has ever proved that she can trust them and most of them expect something from her in return. She struggles to form relationships with people simply because she doesn't trust them and feels she has only herself to rely upon. This makes her extremely isolated and to some extent extremely lonely. Of course, she never discusses this because she simply could never trust anyone else enough to let them in anymore and she would much rather her own company than someone else's. The truth is she fears death and old age and she fears that people do not see her as fair as this is all that matters to her.
She is clever and cunning and unafraid to get her hands dirty if she must, she knows that the way to power is to use what she has and she shamelessly pursues it at any and all costs. Including the loss of lives to other people. She simply no longer cares as to her the only thing that is important, the only thing that matters is her and her brother’s rise in the world and she will do anything to keep it that way. She considers the sacrifices of others as saving her family and therefore worthwhile and she has lived this way for so long that her mind will not easily change on the matter.
SECRET(S): That’s none of your business.♦ THE HISTORY ♦
Ursula was born into the life in the slums in the first days of the 20th century Her life was a meagre but sufficient one in the little village they lived in. Her mother was known as a nurse and the locals would come to her for medicine and aid when times were extremely hard and she would scrape together enough of a living by being paid in food and drink to see her child get by and when she wasn't she would send Ursula out to beg for scraps. It was by no means a life of riches or expectation and with no support from a father figure Ursula grew up with only their mother's protection, though an ample on them. Ursula never knew her father as her mother never spoke of him.
However, once Ursula reached her eighteenth birthday, her mother developed pneumonia and died in her bed, leaving Ursula to fend for herself and taking a job in the local factory. Working until her fingers grew numb and ached and pain going through her back as she forced herself to stand upright. She didn’t work. She didn’t eat.
Ursula never forgot that , the feeling of her limbs weighing her down like lead, barely being able to lift them up she was so tired, the way she used to drag herself home covered in the muck and the dirt feeling less than an ant….
No, she never forgot that….
That was how it seemed Ursula’s life was going, overworked, tired, just another faceless worker be trying to scrape by with the bare minimum until eventually, her body gave up on her like a horse that simply couldn’t give anymore….
That was until….SHE came for her.
She didn’t know how she found her but one afternoon in a brief moment of respite from her back breaking labour she ran into a woman with impossibly well-presented hair and expensive clothes asking Ursula if she could buy her dinner….
….One thing leads to another….
The years went by and Ursula reveled in her new found immortality and power, delighting in the control she had over others there was never a day that went by that she didn’t hurt from the shadows, not because she was hungry of course, no, she just adored the hunt of it all and over the years she honed her craft, even managing to help bring quick a quick-witted young man from France that Ursula would come to call “Brother” and over the years she and Ezra became somewhat close, they had similar viewpoints of life and once the vampires took control of the planet….well it was time to exercise those ideas unfortunately, around that time their mentor went missing…
Shame…
With vampires out in the open and she and her brother in a rather favourite position. Well the sky was the limit of what they could do♦ THE PLAYER ♦
