Cordelia Redcastle for @terrahji‘s Marrying the Heir
"The corridors of Britechester University are always crowded, nobody has time to pay attention to what is going on around them. For example, some students usually discuss the lesson just ended with each other, others try desperately to make their way through the swarm of people so as not to arrive further late to their lesson, still others review the topic for the thousandth time for the upcoming exam. But when the auburn-haired girl crosses the corridors, everyone usually loses interest in what they are doing to admire her. "
Hobbies: writing, painting, take a walk, play the piano, take pictures, jogging, reading.
I was born in Britechester and have always lived there, unfortunately I have never visited other places, my parents have never felt the need for it. My father is the mayor of Britechester and my mother is the Charity Icon of Britechester while my two older brothers are one a lawyer and the other a businessman, as you can see all my family members practice relevant professions just like ours family tradition wants, because mine is in fact one of the oldest and most prestigious families in Britechester and all my ancestors were naturally magnanimous and successful women and men, or at least that's what is shown on the gravestones of my ancestors in the cemetery of my family.I have always been skeptical about it since all the most renowned families of the place, therefore unfortunately mine too, are part of an ancient clique where the only goal is to exchange favors at the expense of others excluded.
To make sure that my siblings and I received excellent education, my parents decided to have us study at home with private teachers. I therefore spent part of my life at home studying and in the large garden imagining myself in an enchanted place full of fantastic creatures, the only times we left our home were for charity evenings or dinners at the home of colleagues or friends of my parents. All this I was able to endure as a child, as a teenager instead I started to study less and less and to spend most of my time drawing, painting, reading, writing and playing our old piano. Fortunately, my parents didn't worry about it as much as I was the last child, the important thing for them was that I studied at least a minimum and that I didn't make our family look bad in public. When the time came to attend university, my parents' only obligation was obviously to attend Britechester's, as all our ancestors had naturally done. Fortunately, something changed during university, I started to spend most of my time out jogging, taking an interest in photography and exploring the town that I had never really visited. At university I was unable to make friends ... let's say that socializing is not my forte, I am not used to being with people I don't know and in the rare times that some students have spoken to me I always went out with cold answers. Not to mention the fact that when I go through the corridors of Britechester the other students immediately step aside and observe me, for this reason I decided to attend university only for classes with compulsory attendance and to take exams.
Now everything is finally over, I graduated and probably my parents have some "evil" plans in store for me ... but this does not matter because I am about to say goodbye to Britechester! I decided to travel the world and start a new life, I already know that I will not be able to stay still, I am impatient to recover all the experiences not made: dance in the disco until the morning, fall in love, give the first kiss, woohoo ... I know it won't be easy mainly because of my personality, but I will try to bring out my most active and creative part too!
Before leaving, however, I would like to stop at Forgotten hollows, there’s someone I would absolutely like to know ...

Hester was the youngest ever Professor appointed at the University of Britechester. She works in the History department, specialising in Vampire Lore. Her colleagues see her as sensible, practical, quiet and hard working. They are sometimes bemused by the strange-looking letters and packages that arrive for her from all over the world, often with wax seals and spotted with ink (and sometimes more mysterious substances).
Hester is extremely intelligent and actually very adventurous. She loves field work. She has travelled all over the world studying vampires. She is human but younger vampires pose little threat to her as she has developed a technique to fend them off if they try to feed on her - it involves a type of meditation she learned on her travels and a special blend of garlic spray she developed herself. She is also very strong and physically fit which has helped her to stay out of danger.
For the older and more powerful vampires she has studied, she needs to rely on her charm and quick wits. She is very skilled at figuring out what vampires want or are interested in and manipulating that for her own benefit. They are often simply curious about her because she is so lacking in fear, which gives her time to assess the situation. She is able to adapt her personality - shy and nonthreatening or sexy and bold - depending on what will get her what she wants.
Hester has had very few committed relationships but maintains numerous long-distance flirtations with vampires around the world (hence the letters and little trinkets they send her to help with her studies). She prefers trysts and one-night stands; longer-term relationships, particularly with humans, tend to bore her. She prefers vampire partners, either male or female, and enjoys the freedom to experiment that vampires are often open to.
She does not have many human friendships and is quite happy to be alone. She expends quite a lot of energy convincing her colleagues that she is ‘normal’ and would rather spend the rest of her time studying and training for her field work.
Hester would like to fall in love one day but it would need to be someone extraordinary to win her heart.

A little bit about Aune:
She was raised out in the fields of Windenburg, her family owns a plot of lands and that’s all she knew growing up. The big leap to move out and into a small townhome in Del Sol was sudden and surprising but she dreams of being an actress. If it fails, she has dream of opening her own botanical garden, so others can enjoy the beauty of plants as much as she does. Maybe now she should mention that her home is, er, overrun with plants of different kids? She loves hosting disco night at a little club around the corner, she can definitely oogie boogie all night long. She’s easy to befriend and talk to, if you come over she’ll immediately put the kettle on. She’s a secret keeper and a loyal friend and lover.

Share about yourself:
Hiruma Takesi a 26 years old (actually unknown) owner of a company in San-Myshuno. Takesi - very old, wise and respectful family. Pretty all Hiru’s ancestors were vampires and vampirism in family, from old times, is passed down from generation to generation. But to be honest, no one even is aware that Hiruma - vampire.
“The truth is better than a lie, but sometimes it's better to hide the terrible truth, for the good of others“
The Takesi family has been followed this conviction through generations and by Hiruma nowadays too. Hiruma from he’s grandfather and father, inherited wisdom and family katana and... Vampirism... To be honest, he’s not glad to be a vampire. For someone it’s a blessing, but for Hiru it’s a curse. He doesn’t enjoy the immortal life, it’s wrong, because Hiru thinks that no one can live forever. And, because of that, he can’t marry on a mortal woman. Hiru wants to find a woman of his species and have children one day... Someone has to continue the family and inherit everything he’s owning.
