Character Files from the ToiBox 21: Tori- Bio

ECB-T

nofemaleBiography:  Subject EC:B 1-Tori

Tori is the product of an unplanned pregnancy. This is known only because she is discovered abandoned. We know nothing about her biological parents or background. Giovanni finds her and brings her to Mira and they decide to keep her.

Tori is average in the best possible way. Unlike other members of her adoptive family, she gets to have quit a few normal experiences and blends in with “regular” people just fine. From an early age she looks to her father and brother as her protectors and puts her mother on a pedestal of realistic perfection.

Tori doesn’t attend public school, but she receives an education and has opportunities to socialize with her human peers. When she grows up, Tori attends college and remains, for the most part, shielded from the dangers the rest of her family faces daily.

After graduating from college, Tori is burdened with the decision of what to do next. She’s at a point in her life when she can continue to tip-toe between the two worlds she was raised in or finally make a choice, choosing one over the other.

Eternal Curse: Battleground chapter 1.3(wip)

Life was hard for Sheldon in a way I constantly tried to understand, but never really could. Growing up, Sheldon was a great big brother, very loving and protective and also playful. As we both grew and changed, our lives and relationship became complicated. Now that I was bigger than him, he was having trouble dealing with the new dynamic of our relationship. He resented having to pretend to be my little brother around humans, which it seemed we were around more and more. Mom was the one who always seemed to make everything balance out just right, and now she was gone.

Eternal Curse: Battleground chapter 1(wip)

For as long as I could remember, Mom had always worn her hair up in a bun. I’d seen digital imprints of her when she was younger, wearing her hair down, and thought that she looked much prettier that way. Her hair was a medium length for her face and it was very dark and wavy. I always thought that when she wore her hair down, it made her look like the kind of person who really knew how to have fun.

I stood in front of my reflecting shield looking at myself wishing that I could see her facial features looking back at me. No matter how hard I wished, her features just weren’t there.  I wasn’t tall and voluptuous like she was, and my skin wasn’t dark like hers either. My hair was long, thin, and curly and my skin was fair.
