Hey, my name is... Themis Ares Sicarus
But most call me... Miss Sicarus
If you want to, you can label me... asexual
I've been on this earth for... 763 years
Which means I was born... 13th January, 1250
I'm a... faculty member
And only a... governess
My eyes are... blue
And my hair is... dark brunette
One could say... that I am quite pretty, but I can't see that. I suppose with a diamond shaped face and symmetrical features my looks are pleasing. I have a set of high cheekbones and also full lips.
My hair, a natural dark brown, falls in tight curls just below my shoulders. I like to keep it at this length all the time. Occassionally (and only really at big events) will I put up my hair, and then it will be in a sleek up-do.
At 5'7" I am neither tall nor short. I am of an average height. I am quite slender though that does not, under any circumstances, mean that I am weak. I am, in fact, rather strong.
I'm normally seen wearing... a red and white, long sleeved, loose top of which is mostly covered by a black, heavily buckled, underbust corset. Over this I wear a velvet burgundy, cropped jacket which is trimmed with gold and also has a gold pattern. Black gloves also cover my hands. I wear a pair of dark skin-tight trousers but most of these are covered by my boots. The heel is only two.inches high, however the boots come up to my mid-thigh. They have large, circular buttons going up on the outside of each leg.
And I supposedly look like... kate beckinsale as anna valerious
All round, I'm... one of those people that you are either going to love or going to hate, with most people choosing the latter option. It's not that I'm an evil person, I just have very strict values and will also stick by the rules (and enforce them) no matter what.
I have been very strict my whole life. I do not like it when people do not listen to what I say and I certainly do not like it when people go against what I say. Rules are there to be abided by. It is what keeps society safe and in harmony. One should not break the rules, ever, and I believe that anyone who does should be punished. No one should get special treatment.
Many would call me a bitch, however I only speak the truth of people. If you are offended by what I say then I apologize for offending you though I will not take it back. I like to express my opinions as I believe that people can learn from what is said to them. And, one cannot change their ways if they do not know what to chsnge about themselves.
I was once called ignorant. Now this is not true. I am in no way ignorant toward people. Arrogant, maybe, but certainly not ignorant. Just because I am from a pure-blood family it does not mean I do not know what goes on in the rest of the world and do not care about it. I was brought up better than that. Yes, I believe as a pure-blood vampire I am slightly to an advantage over the bitten of my kind but that is the truth.
Pardon the expression, but I also will not 'take any crap' from people. I will noy listen to your whiny stories, or react anything but impassive as you scream at me for something I've either said or done. It is not in my nature to care.
Some as described me as being a sociopath. This is untrue. I have emotions however most do not see them. I have felt pain and sorrow, I know what it is like to be happy but I keep my emotions hidden under my mask. In my job, I cannot afford to be sentimental. Caring is not an advantage. It only makes the decisions you make poorer.
On some level, somewhere, I can be kind. Civil is probably a more suited word. A slight smile here, a nod there, and you might actually learn to accept me. I will not go as far as to like. Most of the time, I will have a conversation with you. Just because I may seem harsh does not mean that I might not be interested in your life. Granted, I probably am not, and I might tell you so but my job means that I must listen to my students and actually help you with your problems if you do (God forbid) need my help.
I'm in love with... rules, my job, peace, corsets, old fashioned dress, manners, castles, reading, the smell of old books, classical music, being in charge, power, being unnattatched, the night, darkness, being on my own, painting
Though I detest... young children, babies, people who break the rules, pompous people, modernity, heavy metal, screamo, romance, love, Valentine's day, those who do not listen to me, summer, heat, the war
But my best assets are... I can paint rather well, it has actually become a hobby of mine. I have a rather good memory. I am a strong fighter, and could probably beat most in a fight.
However my worst... any mention of my family will make me break - I will not drop my mask though. I do not believe I will ever find love and I do not see people in a romantic light. I do not care about other people's lives.
And I dream of... being able to.prevent any future wars and to enforce the rules so they are not broken.
My life story... I was born on the thirteenth of January, 1250. My parents, Cerberus and Proserpine Sicarus, were pure-blood vampires. I was their first child. Because of this, I was showered with every luxury. We lived in a large, dark castle. It was rather beautiful, really, with dark stone, a drawbridge, five turrets and all the old, gothic stereotypes you can imagine.
The castle was near a village and that village was our food source. The humans were suspicious, yes, but every single year on the winter solstice my parents held a ball. It was huge. Every single villager would turn up in their best dress. The banquet, an array of glorious food, was what kept the villagers liking us. It meant even the poorest family was fed well for one night. Of course, keeping our prey healthy was our priority.
My childhood was spent learning. I was taught everything, from academic subjects to the arts. I was trained in every classical instrument - piano, violin, cello, harp, the viola and also the double bass. My dance knowledge became extensive from the amount of balls my parents held.
At fifteen, my parents wanted me to fall in love and to wed. They tried, I tried but none of the men ever caught my eye. I just never saw people as attractive. Apparently I had grown into a very attractive girl. Mother was constantly praising my beauty. I did get a few proposals from some bachelors but I said no each time. My father did become annoyed. When my mother became pregnant again once I was seventeen, I was suddenly an asset. I cared for my mother while she carried Antheia. My soon to be sister.
When Antheia was born, the world became so much brighter. The young child was beautiful. She had golden hair (a feature that never changed) and eyes as blue as the rest of our family. Antheia was our angel. I loved my baby sister and cared for her. She grew up and was constantly by my side. We often hunted together - much to our parent's dismay. Blood was to be stored in bottles and drunk by the glass.
Years went by and Aithne found a suitor. She was wed.
A few years later, I got news about my sister and her husband. They had been killed by a werewolf pack. That is when I left my home. I went, and I tracked down that pack.
It took me many years of searching. I had become a hunter. No longer was I a sophisticated young lady that my parents had created. Never were my fangs retracted. I was constantly on the hunt. I found them. It was a mighty battle. I survived. I managed to kill the pack that had murdered by sister.
When I returned to my family, probably fifty years after I left, I was greeted by two children. Vesta and Dionysus. They were twins. Exactly alike in every way apart from the gender. Vesta was my sister. Dionysus my brother.
My parents accepted me with open arms. They helped me with my injuries from my battle and soon I was up once more. My father began training me to fight. Not only with hand-to-hand combat but with weapons. I learned to use a sword, throw knives and also became rather good with a crossbow. The sword was always my weapon of choice.
Time was pretty normal for quite a few years. My mother had another set of twins. Eros and Erebos. Identical twin boys. They were dark in every way. Of course, around the rest of us, they were the world's best pranksters. Of course, in a vampire family, pranks are never harmless. Many a time was I close to having a bucket of acid on me if I opened a door.
My sister, Hestia, was born around twenty years after the twins. A further fourty years after that, my brother Thanatos was born. Another hundred years and my mother was blessed with Coeus and Orpheus - born not three years apart.
Life was wonderful. I cared for my siblings. Years went on and on and everything was good. Until the wars started.
My brothers all signed up. After a hundred years of fighting, and the death of every male in my family - including my father - us girls went to fight. I fought constantly, looking after my siblings also, but they did not have my natural ability to fight. One by one, they were killed by another race. By the time the peace treaty was signed, I had no family.
From the wars, I had become an influential vampire. I was put as part of the council. I worked hard in my job. Fighting for the peace and keeping the res upheld. And then they gave me a challenge. To become a Governess at the supernatural school in the city of Northvale. I took it. I would look after those children. I would make sure that the wars never happened again by keeping the rules upheld. I would be strict but fair.
