Thi would be a form of Necro Fade's history. Its a vampiric version, and usually the main way people know her, though in a few she's remained human.

When her mother gave birth to her only child it was when the stars above were in the shape of the scorpion. Because of past incidents most thought of anything that happened during this time to be bad. So even as the tiny and frail child took her first breath they already said she'd die. Her mother, in defiance deided to name her child Liebe, which meaned life. All the elders shook their heads and continued to mutter of her death.

the child didnt die though, and continued to grow. The elders at first kept raising how long she'd live to a few more days, then weeks, then months before they stopped entirely. They instead made her an outcast, the parents of other childrens telling their own to not play with her. Lies soon formed about her and were not hid from her or her family.

All in her village had livestock, the poultry most common and there were only three horses in the whole town. Her own parents cared for sheep and a few cows which grazed everywhere. Her parents though made sure the flock of sheep were watched over. Liebe always got this chore but didnt mind it much.

Soon there were the tales of a wolf that was hunting the smaller poultry and grazing animals. Her mother feared for her daughter but her father had taught her well enough with a staff that he didnt worry. She found the source of these rumors though and they were only remotely true. It was indeed hunting their animals, but it was a large long haired dog, not a wolf. She quickly pleaded with her parents until they caved and she was allowed to call the dog hers. What his name was has been long forgotten.

There were grudges held against her family, especially because she didnt take to being bullied. Usually she dealt with the hurtful words and occasional painfully thrown object quietly. Then, when she had the dog, she was not as forgiving. When one threw a large stone and caused the creature to yelp there was a fight that had to be broken by a few of the fathers of the children. Though nobody left that fight undamaged, even though she was ganged up on she held wounds that were miniscle compared to those of the boys who'd done the deed.

One day though, Liebe's house was woken as two men stormed in, pulling a reluctant Liebe behind them. The source of the commotion was in the small stall of one of the horses. It layed still, throat a deep red of the muscle and the hard ground softened as the dirt soaked blood. Blame was immediatly placed on the pale girl. She took it in stride though, telling them she hadnt done such a thing, but no one believed. Instead, the owner of this horse threatened his revenge. No one noticed the two dark haired children leaving, twins as pale as milk.

The next day was awaked by screams. Liebe, thinking it nothing than the usual fear her mother had, still ran. She slipped and fell straight into the pool of blood. White shift was easily soaked and she looked in horror at her dog, whos own throat was slitted. Something snapped in her then and grey eyes wide she ran, looknig like a ghost stained red.

She entered the home of the one she knew who had did this. With the element of suprise on her side and the piece of sharp metal she held as a weapon, she easily killed the father who had threatened her.

What happened afterwards consisted of the death of her parents and her own expulsion from the village. Memories are hazy here and not any seem to knowe what happened exactly. Her memory remembered soon afterwards though. As she traveled among the wild, for she was not wanted in any village where news passed. She met a man on the road, who told her of the larger cities, and seemed to mistify the still young woman with his small wood flute. the next morning after she had met him though, she found him long gone, though he left his flute to her care.

It was that day she met Fade. The older woman caught all the young girls attention and seemed to agree witrh everything Liebe said. She helped her shed her past by giving her a name and acted almost like a foster mother, only she wasnt as forgiving. She taught her of Necromancy, for which she had given Liebe the name Necro. No longer would she hold that name given by her real mother, but intead she was known as Necro Fade.

They had traveled together for a few years before Fade unexpectedly showed her true colors. She changed Necro and left her only after giving her the basics of being a vampire. To this day Necro doesnt understand why Fade had changed her and just disapeared on her new fledgling. Necro made no move on finding her though. Instead she continued to work on her 'art' of necromancy.

Before coming unto a completely new realm, she returned to her village in the night and proceeded in destroying everything. No creature, much less a human, survived. All thats left of the village now is the charred remained, everything having been burned. Her revenge complete she let attention go to traveling, curious as to what she'd find.
