To say I had a normal childhood would be nice. However,it wouldn't be the truth. I was born in the fall of 1975. My mother, Jack, said we were in Sweden at the time, but I can't be sure. We traveled a lot. My, mom, and my younger sister, Ivanna. You see, we are Dragonminds. An infamous family to say the least. Mom, bless her heart, is a little on the crazy side. Then there is my aunt, Crash, she....has always been confusing. But there is something unique about all of us; we are a family of women. Yes, there have been men in our family, but they've always met with some misfortune or another. The Dragonmind Curse, we call it.
   That's another thing unique to us. We stick together. No matter how aloof or how many quarells we have between us, we ALWAYS come to each other's aid. So imagine their shock and dismay  when I was whisked away by those who would grow to be my Sisters. It seems that, unknown to my mother, she had slept with a Black Fury Kinfolk, which resulted in her being pregnant with me.
   When I was taken, it was, at first, to live with a Kinfolk family so they could test me to see if I would shift or not. They didn't have long to wait. Not liking having been taken from my family, I grew angry and frustrated. One night I snapped completely and shifted into Crinos. Luckily, the family I lived with were expecting it so no one got hurt. The next morning I was awoken by one of my true Sisters. She took me and had me learn many things about Garou.
   After a while, I went through a series of tests called the Rite of Passage and was at last accepted fully into the Sept. I was drawn to the kuklos, Moon Daughters. They seemed less wary of accepting the current technology I was accustomed to.
   Years passed with me training and fighting along with my Sisters. I'd barely kept in touch with my Blood family. Not because I didn't want to, but I was in Greece, and most of them had gone over to the United States. One day however, I did get a message from my sister, Ivanna. My cousin, Theo, had been murdered.....could I come help her?
  Within a week I was on my way to Kansas City. Even against the better judgement of my Alpha. So now here I am. Alone in a strange place....finding out more things about my family than I care to know. Now  I understand the reactions of disdain I get from people who learn my last name..... Some secrets are better, left uncovered.......
