Carolina Roseanne Vaught
Gender: Lady
Age/DOB: 25; 12/24/1987
Occupation: Student at the University, as well as being an aide for the Chevalerie (technology is one thing she helps them out with, among others)
Race: Hooman
Appearance;
Carolina is of average height, standing at a modest five feet and five inches. She is of thin frame, weighing in at 135 pounds, give or take a slice of pie. She has dark hair, which is cut in a shaggy shoulder-length style, and she wears bright blonde highlights. She occasionally wears extensions in her hair, making it reach to the middle of her back, but most of the time she just wears it short and straight. Carolina has a long, narrow face with an angular, determined jaw and a hundred-watt smile. Her eyes are gray-blue, lighter in the center and darker toward the outside of the iris.
Carolina dresses primarily in slim fit jeans and t-shirts, frequently throwing in an accessory such as a pair of suspenders or a vest or a fedora, which gives her manner of dress a distinctively off-beat touch.
Although she usually wears contacts, she occasionally dons glasses when her eyes are tired. She lives in her black and white polka dotted Vans, which need desperately to be replaced, but they are her favorite shoes and she is reluctant to part with them.
Carolina favors fitted t-shirts, most of which have band logos or snarky phrases printed on them. She also likes belts with distinctive buckles, her favorite one being a buckle emblazoned with the Batman symbol in the center.
Lina is fit, opting to run most mornings before it gets too warm. She has many scars on her shoulders and arms from her time working as a blood whore, but she has taken a turn for clean living and now takes pride in keeping her body fit and healthy. While she does not actively try to hide her scars, she doesn't show them off, either.
Carolina has a tattoo that wraps around her left wrist and goes almost up to her elbow, like a quarter-sleeve. The tattoo is composed of a mermaid on a coral reef, surrounded by colorful sea life.
Personality;
Carolina, who was once addicted to pain killers and Vamprie bites, has a surprisingly upbeat attitude for someone who has seen and been through as much as she has. She is bubbly and cheerful most of the time, wearing a dazzling smile that reaches to her blue-gray eyes.
Carolina is smart as a whip, and has opted to go back to school to study nursing. She spends a lot of time studying, because she loves to learn new things. She soaks up information like a sponge, especially from Devereux, whom she reveres as a brilliant scientific mind, even if he's not particularly friendly.
Lina is at her best when she has her music playing in one ear. She listens to everything, but prefers the sounds of Mayday Parade and A Day To Remember.
Lina loves to cook, but she is not particularly good at it. She can follow a recipe just fine, but when it comes to improvising in the kitchen, things never seem to go as well as she would have hoped.
Lina has a good eye for technology, and helps the Chevalerie out on the technology front fairly often. She likes to take things apart and figure out how they work, and sometimes she can bastardize two or three things together to make something nifty and unique. Half the time, this results from a happy accident, and she can never recreate the new device a second time.
As mentioned before, Lina is a recovering addict, once addicted to drugs and Vampire bites, but she is on the up and up from that time in her life. She credits Lucien with getting her out of Fells Church, Virginia, where she worked at a Vampire bar, and who brought her to Saint Callais to be part of his blended family.
Lina is a firecracker, and can lose her temper when provoked, but is generally very easygoing and forgiving.
Lina is very physically fit and is a good fighter, hand-to-hand combat being her preferred method of dispatching undesirables. She and Azi fight particularly well together.
History;
Carolina was born in Crozet, Virginia, to Mortimer and Claudia Vaught. She has an older brother, Charlie, and a younger brother, Westley. She was raised around horses and sheep, and was brought up as a farm girl. She attended private schools in Charlottesville, starting at age three and continuing her education through the end of high school. She opted out of going to college, instead choosing to race horses with her older brother, Charlie, as her trainer. The two were an award-winning pair, with Carolina competing as a hunter-jumper.
One year after she graduated from high school, Lina and her brothers were in the stable on their family estate cleaning up the tack room when a fire broke out. The wooden stable, filled with hay, went up like a tinder box, and Carolina was badly burned in the ensuing blaze. She received most of the burns on her back when the hay loft collapsed on her, but Charlie was able to drag her out before entirely too much damage was done.
After a long stay in the hospital, involving several surgeries and skin grafts, Carolina was released and returned to her parents' estate in Crozet, where she spent several months in physical therapy before returning to the horse arena a year later.
Deciding she needed to get away from her family after 21 years of being close to them, Carolina picked up and moved to Fells Church, where she intended to go to school. However, she had become addicted to pain killers during her long recovery after the fire, and soon she was dropping out of University and working at a Vampire bar where patrons could "glamour" her with their bite, sending her into a bender unlike she'd ever experienced with pain killers.
At age 23, Carolina met Lucien one night at the bar, and the two struck up a conversation. Over the next few weeks and months the two became romantically involved and Carolina eventually came to Saint Calais with him, and over the ensuing months, was integrated into his odd "family."
Carolina, being much, much younger than the other members of the Chevalerie, now helps out with modernizing their work, showing each member ways to use technology to aide them in their missions.
Carolina has returned to school, now at the age of 25, and is pursuing a degree in nursing.
