* Rhun and Nesme in their twenties *
Rhun/Hrun was magically adopted by two vampires and as such is not entirely human because her DNA has changed, but she is more human than vampire. apart from Nesme, Rhun is also quite close friends with Cookie Montoya.
Venessa (Nesme) is a born half-vampire on a mostly human diet, but on-mission she sometimes drinks animal blood to avoid having to steal or spend money that doesn't come from the same money system- thus the yellow eyes. She is friends with Alicia Brandon as well as Tara Tonks and Tara Beverly.
The young women are from different years in different universes, but around the same age, and have known each other for over a decade. Frienemies to friends to lovers.
Rhun is the woman you will want for the fine-tunes. The fiddly works of magic. Carefully woven spells and intricate transfigurations- she is almost as naturally inclined to transfiguration as Vicky is. Rhun uses a wand when she has to channel more of her meagre amount of magic to get, for example, a more powerful protective spell, otherwise she uses the method of carefully channeling her magic through three fingers.
When it comes to magic, Nesme operates on brute force. She doesn't look it, but she is incredibly strong, magically speaking- and when has magic ever cared about body types (maybe it should, Nesme is borderline anorexic, and it's only not fully there because her half vampire system won't let her get any skinnier... Which she uses to argue that for /her/, it's not actually dangerous. Off topic...). Because of her power, she never quite bothered to learn any finesse. While she always makes sure to own a wand, she doesn't usually carry one around with her unless she's on a mission, and then she mostly treats them as something disposable to be easily replaced should she lose or break it.
If you were to throw a plastic ball at her, Nesme would elegantly catch it before it could hit her while Rhun would just let it bounce off of her and fall in the mud, going 'Oups- guess you'll have to clean that now..."
Venessa smirks coldly, sneers, purses her lips just slightly and looks even colder through it. When she does laugh- when around the people she loves, when managing to get something /just right/- she laughs loud and free. She stares down people who annoy her until they get uncomfortable and look away, and she walks upright, straight, like she owns the place and would step on you.
Rhun, or Hrun as her birth certificate said (she never did learn to spell it right as a child, and stuck to it even when she knew better), smiles little smiles more often than Nesme, grins sometimes and smirks with mirth in her eyes. She rolls her eyes at people who annoy her, snorts, laughs in the guffawing way of her father. Rhun can stand up straight if she wants to, but she doesn't usually- huddled in on herself, staring at her phone or tablet, game or gadget, bad posture only emphasised by baggy clothing, making every day underestimate her skill and secretly smiling to herself whenever she shows them all.
Both of them are scientists, in a way- sure, they go on missions, Nesme does humanitarian stuff no-one would expect from such a cold woman while Rhun, of course, does the tech. But they are both also interested in biology, psychology, philosophy,... In biology they worked together on a dissertation, Rhun doing the hands-on work on little possibly-part-alien-frogs while Venessa does the research, hours upon hours in the library. Not that she minds getting her hands dirty that much, really, but she would mind how it would ruin her pristine image.
