chapter one . mr and mrs martocci built their family on the principal of love . they were kind and understanding , open - hearted and soft - hearted and every kind of hearted . mrs martocci was a pre - school teacher and mr martocci ran a small little place for italian dining at the centre of town square . they met , fell in love and were so wrapped up in each other’s lives that there simply was no room for tragedy . but fate found away , fate always finds a way . in the second year of their marriage , they had their first child . and a year later , rome was born . he was their little bundle of joy , a little on the temperamental side but mr and mrs martocci could find the will and the patience to truly accept anything . they were beautiful parents , a beautiful family and everything was agonisingly perfect .
chapter two . rome remembers almost every moment of his childhood , from learning how to walk , to their trips to disneyland , to family picnics by the river , taking pictures at the parades , his father teaching him how to cook , his mother teaching him how to paint . every memory was bright and vibrant and life was so good . then tragedy , like a lightning strike came when they least expected it . after the supernaturals were exposed , his parents were one of the few humans who kept their word and allied with the witches , acting as some sort of double - agent as they continued to work with the purebloods . fourteen years later , they were charged with treason and killed by vampires . rome was seven years old .
chapter three . the family restaurant was handed of to a stranger , both martocci kids had been too young to inherit such a growing business . they were placed into foster care and were never adopted . they went from house to house , some were worst than others , some were better but they never truly found a home . as soon as his sister was old enough , she was granted guardianship and their first true home was a small apartment downtown where the streets were always busy and the people were noisy and the ceiling was cracked and the walls had holes punched in them and the windows were broken . but God , it was their first real home . and that was everything .
chapter four . high school was not good to him . he was an outcast , a loner , with a melancholy riddled gaze that was too frightening to hold . the pain was almost unbearable and he found solace in alcohol , drugs , strangers . high school had left him hollow , he holds very few good memories of that time in his life . the only moments he remembers were the after - school detentions , missing credits , skipped classes , failed subjects , the disappointment on his sister’s face , over - due library books , scrunched up projects , whispers of the girls in the corner and shoves by the jocks walking past . he managed to graduate somehow , he’s not quite sure exactly but he did . but the rambunctious cheers and high - pitched hollers from his sister at the ceremony was forever ingrained in his mind .
chapter five . straight after school he planned to get his parents’ restaurant back . the taverna had been in the hands of the martoccis for four generations , it was their shared legacy and rome was not letting it go that easy . he started as a cook , planned to work his way to the top . and that was it . that was his thirty - year plan . but it was easier said than done . at nineteen he discovered the true origins of his family , a family of witches . his mother was come from a powerful and respected covens of her time though her supernatural gene was dormant , almost non - existent . she never had the magic that her ancestors had . she was , in almost every sense of the word , ordinary . but she had passed the magic on to her children .
chapter six . rome was nineteen when his powers revealed themselves to him . it was after a long - night at the kitchen , got close to getting fired and he was enraged . he drove to the edge of town , hiked up the woods and screamed and cried and the ground shook and the trees fell . suddenly he had a bigger purpose than reclaiming the taverna . vengeance . he needed to study his powers , learn more about the purebloods , eradicate their tyranny , strip away their power . one day he will have his revenge . though that day seems further and further away . in the meantime , he reads and studies , much more rigorously than he ever did . and he’s slowly gaining control of his powers .

VENGEFUL : hates purebloods & vampires for what they did to his parents , will always remain loyal to the witches
EMPATHETIC : he is weak for other people who are unabashedly showing their feelings , he’s very emotionally intelligence and has a very high level of empathy so he’s automatically drawn to comfort them and be there for them
CANDID : blatantly and cruelly honest , most especially to strangers
NONCHALANT : doesn’t really care about anything or anyone’s feeling except those close to him , everything except his mission to vengeance and to reclaim the taverna is trivial to him . anything else to him is meaningless . .
AWKWARD : kinda says the wrong things at the wrong time ?? it’s just his trademark humour to just be this awkward stick in the middle of the room , and y’know *awkward chuckle* yeah that’s him .

MENTOR : someone who helps him control his powers in secret ??
CHILDHOOD FRIEND : they drifted apart after his parents’ death ?? but he still really misses them ? and maybe they’re trying to reconnect ?

trigger warnings : death , mysterious disappearance ??
chapter one : the sullivans never really knew a lot about salvation . it was a founding principal that what is lost is lost , what is done is done , there is no such thing as forgiveness & even less of redemption . so when octavia sawyer ( a woman from a long line of esteemed & powerful witches ) fell in love with henry stone ( a three - hundred year old vampire — noble , chivalrous , his only flaw having a tendency to suffer from extremely time - occupying existential crises ) , she was casted out , abandoned , her branch sawed off from from the family tree , face blasted off the tapestry , she was , in every sense of the word , banished from her coven and might as well been exiled out of new orleans . but she remained , with her now - husband , in a little house at the edge of town . they tried their best to isolate themselves from any supernaturals , vampires or witch and desperately attempted to live their life as though they were merely simple humans . and the first step , have a child .
chapter two : since their biology was perhaps the most incompatible in the baby - making section , they resorted to adoption . and that was where amanda came in . amanda had been the product of two teenagers who fervently believed they were madly in love . got married at eighteen , had a baby the year later and unfortunately , the tribulations of young adulthood left them with very little room to care , much less love , their year - old baby . and they gave up , got caught up in unhealthy coping strategies ; drugs , drinking and their baby was taken from them , though they had very little will to put up a fight . but little mandy was too young to remeber any of it ; the arguments from the back - seat of the car , the splinters of smashed glass in the kitchen , the holes punched in the cheap plaster of the living room . there’s very little of them that she remembers .
chapter three : childhood was a blur . at three years old , she was whisked away to english countryside . the uprising had left her parents paranoid and afraid , fearful that they would be forced to choose again , between their love and their families , so they ran away . stayed with a family friend in a little college south of chesire , where the air was cold and crisp and just hills upon hills of green . but that memory’s a distant one too . mandy and her parents returned to new orleans after the uprising had been tamed and dealt with , resorting to their little home at the edge of town and continuing with their silly little charade of humanity — her mother had stoped using her powers , her father only fed on animal blood . they tried to give their daughter everything that they so desperately desired , normality .
chapter four . though what they couldn’t change was who amanda was and what they couldn’t prevent was the magic in her blood . a witch . imagine that ! out of the children they could’ve adopted , fate , so agonisingly obsessed with irony , gave them her , a wtich . a girl who will never know normalcy had it been right in front of her . with a constant stream of temper tantrums , it wasn’t long before her emotions erupted and her powers were revealed . and she was strong , her raw power at the age of seven was enough to trigger the pureblood’s spies . her parents begged for mercy , she was just a kid , she didn’t know how it was forbidden , much less control it ! she doesn’t remember most of that night , only that it was the last time she had seen her parents .
chapter five . the remainder of her adolescence was spent in hiding , a member of her mother’s old coven had rescued her . vampires were immortal , there was no chance of them leaving or forgetting anytime soon . so she was hidden , raised in a basement under the woman’s house . there was taught all about the supernatural of new orleans , about the uprising and the purebloods and their tyrannical rule , about how one day there will be another revolution and one which witches will win . but in the meantime they had to submit to he purbelood’s power , they must seem obedient and docile but should never forget the fires of rebellion within them nor should they forget the many sacrifices of their ancestors . it was in that tiny little basement , where it was almost always cold and dark that mandy’s rage was fostered , where her parents’ dreams of normalcy ended . it was time for reality . and reality , like the sawyers , was much more unforgiving .
chapter six . amanda stone was rescued from that tragic night but angelina sawyer emerged from that basement from which she was raised . though the alias was not much of a change , word had gone around the supernatural town that amanda stone never survived , some say that she was turned along with her witch of a mother , permanently robbed of her power was an immortal , some say that she perished in fire with the decapitated parts of her vampire of a father . nobody really knows . and she had been seven . she was thirty now . twenty when she left the basement , nobody remembers . nobody cared . so lina , under the guise of a simple human , graduated university and got a job at the local newspaper as a journalist . but at night , she convenes with her coven of witches , planning a revolt whilst trying to uncover the mystery of her parents’ disappearance .

trigger warnings : death , abandonment
chapter one . the ödet boys were no stranger to tragedy , they were after all , in a dangerous line of work . the ödets have been hunters for many generations , legend has it that alistair ödet was the first man to kill a vampire during the something AD in far east sweden . it was of course a legend , a bedtime story that their grandfather would read to them in an almost desperate attempt to inspire them to adopt the supernatural-hunter occupation . it didn’t take much convincing for loren ödet , though he could argue that he wasn’t left with much choice . his father , jon ödet , was a cold - hearted man who had no passion in his life for anything or anyone but the demise and end of supernatural tyranny . he expected all his children to follow in his footsteps and failed to recognise , much less understand , that they might have other aspirations . and so , little lori’s dream to be an astronaut had to be put on hold .
chapter two . for little lori ödet , his first tragedy happened on one of the many fine summer’s day of his eleventh year in life . his eldest brother , alexander ödet , the prodigal son , the golden boy , the perfect brother and his own personal hero was killed whilst accompany his father during a hunt for a newborn vampire . his mother had advised agaisnt it , he was only fourteen years old after all . but his father argued he was ready , that it was time . he was getting older , not as agile or as sly as he used to , he needed someone to take the reigns and ensure the family tradition is followed through and that perfect someone was alexander . the loss tore the family apart and lori remembers the last time he saw his mother was at the wake .
chapter three . by thirteen he had learnt most of what was needed to be a hunter . his father trained him rigorously , start the day at five , 5k run , protein breakfast , an hour of hand - to - hand sparring , then school , then straight after was archery and after that was three hours of supernatural lore , learning about their strengths and weaknesses , periods of vulnerabilities , types of kryptonites , after was two hours of strength and agility workout and whatever was left of the day was spent on homework . the routine was not very advantageous to his academics and his career counselor had been afraid his grades weren’t enough to get him to any university . but he had lacrosse . a lacrosse scholarship was his ticket in .
chapter four . come senior year and he had grown to be this broody , enigmatic , arrogant kind of man . having given very little to socialise , to figure out who he was , he became the very replica of his father , cold - hearted , apathetic and so agonisingly insecure . but boy he was pretty , face of an angel and that sweet , melancholic wit to contradict it . and love , or what seemed like love , was quick to come at every direction . but all his relationships failed , friendships too , they all left when they realised he was carrying more baggage than advertised . naturally , the boy has been frightened of love ever since , his insecurities tripled and his arrogance climbed .
chapter five . almost every ödet hid their supernatural-hunter occupation behind police ventures . and loren , like loren has had to for eighteen years of his life , had to folloow ensuite . three years of criminal justice at CSUSB , 16 weeks of vigorous training at police academy ( though it fell quite short of what he had to endure with his father ) four years as a police officer at the LAPD and loren ödet became a detective at twenty - five . he spent four years at the homicide and robbery division before moving to new orleans for a change of pace .
chapter six . the ödets have been known around new orleans for a while though it had mostly been overlooked by distant members of the family . it was only recently with the uprising that the ödets were called back to survey the area . loren , with his sister and father left their life in los angeles and returned to the location of their ancestral home , new orleans . though loren found a new passion in his career as a detective and prefers to stay clear of all supernaturals , his name pushes him in another direction . and there is this some sort of sense of duty that had been instillled in him a long time ago , to protect humans , to protect those who cannot protect themselves . the ödet family mantra , ducvnt volentem fata, nolentem trahunt , the fates lead the willing and drag the unwilling , followed by the deep and gravelly voice of his father , and what does ödet mean in swedish ?

trigger warnings : death , divorce
chapter one . emma wasn’t lonely at the beginning , you entered the world first , crying & wailing as though breathing was the greatest pain you’ve ever experienced . then four minutes later , her brother was born , all wide - eyed & curious , the doctors were amazed how he barely made a sound . it was only then she calmed down . one could argue perhaps , that she’s always been afraid to be alone .
chapter two . the problem kid , a label sewed onto the lapels of your shirt and damn , did you wear it well . sleeping past curfew , stealing cookies from the cookie - jar , drawing on walls with a permanent marker , running after pigeons & making a mess during dinner . you were only three but you had your parents drained . but at least they had benjamin . little benj , the perfect son . the one who ate his vegetables and coloured inside the lines , the one who smiled at strangers and slept when sang to . benji brought the balance , the calm to all the chaos . what would they do without him ?
chapter three . adolescence , a period in one’s life for many things , most causing heartache , sorrow and seasonal depression . emmeline , the fervour , the one who felt everything about anything or anyone , was struck the hardest by this volatile phase of her life , with erratic hormones , turbulent friendships & a crumbling relationship with her mother , along with an excessive dose of unrequited love for the high school quarterback and a deep - loathing for her french teacher . school was difficult , home was difficult and everything had accumulated so quickly and to such an extent that her parents believed , that the best thing for everyone , was to send her to boarding school . away from all these distractions , to properly discipline her and they thought that maybe , maybe , this will help her into realising that she is not the centre of the world . but nobody thought about the separation .
chapter four . the separation . nobody thought about what the separation would do , to either of them . the twins had been together all their lives , they’ve shared the same room since they were born and even before that . emmeline wreaked havoc just to have benji’s locker next to hers , she caused chaos when they weren’t in the same P.E class and nobody , nobody outside the two of them , could understand how important it was to be together . not until the shift . two weeks into boarding school , their sophomore year , at 4:32 in the morning , pain , searing and unbearable pain . agonising screams from both sides of the world ; emma in her boarding school dorm , benji in their once-shared bedroom . they say that more than half of population die during their first transformation . they weren’t lying .
chapter five . it was heartbreaking to travel to a funeral alone . cladded in black , trying to hold back tears on the plane , it’s painful but the loss , it’s excruciating . he would’ve survived , emma was so sure , that he would’ve survived had they been together . had they gone through the shift together , he would not have died . there was nothing she was more sure of . it was her parents . her blindly idealistic , arrogant , naive , severely perfectionistic parents , who was so caught up in creating the picture perfect family that they ended up destroying it . ripping it apart and tossing it to the flames . and for that , she could never forgive them .
chapter six . the future was bleak , to say the very the least . there was very little of the lian family that survived bejamin’s death . her parents divorced and as soon as she could , emma made a permanent move to london . there she studied political science at cambridge and then law at oxford . and she would’ve stayed , maybe built a practice of her own but she heard there was an opening at a small firm in new orleans . and she had been seeking for an excuse to go back home , maybe this was it ? and in a town full of supernaturals , maybe , just maybe , she wouldn’t feel so alone .
