((OOC: Unless otherwise noted the following journal entries will all be written from the point of view of my RP character, Triste Corazon, so my fellow RPers can keep up with what's she's doing on her travels!))
Dear My Mother's Diary, I had a dream last night. I fell asleep on the beach and I dreamt of the most incredible sights you could ever imagine. And I decided I needed to see something more than Finwe's. For the last two years, I've been working day and night in that bar. Don't get me wrong; I love my job and I love the people even more. A vacation was long overdue, though. So I packed up a few changes of clothes, a bit of money and a few other minute necessities and went on my way. Where exactly I'm going, I'm not sure. I've been heading West. Something just compels me to go that way. Toward the setting sun. Part of me hopes I'll learn something about my past. Part of me hopes I can put the past out of my mind for good. I might have made a mistake, telling Chakira I had family matters to deal with. I hope I didn't worry them. I just want to know where I was born and when. I don't even know my age, let alone my exact birthday. But that's not the real purpose of my wandering anyway. The sun is starting to get low in the sky so I better find myself a place to rest for the night. I'll write again soon, diary of my mother.

(Snaps to Chakira from inspiring me to do this blaugh )
Name: Triste Corazon
Description: See avatar
Race: Human (converted from being a Half-Vampire) *EDIT* Traveled to the past with aid of a magician friend(?) and stopped herself from becoming a human. Now Half-Human, Half-Vampire.
Eyes: (After a fight with an assassin, she has only one) Gray-Violet, other usually covered with eyepatch. She does have a glass eye, but chooses not to wear it because the shades of her natural eye and the fake do not match.
Hair: Very light shade of purple, shoulder-length and layered (Once dyed it black and had short razor-cut) *EDIT* Now very long and straight. Months of working indoors at Finwe's have diminished the effect of the sun on her hair, making it a darker shade of purple.
Height: 5' 6" (in her boots)
Weight: 117lbs
Age: Appears to be in her mid 20s...
Dress: Typically button-down dress shirts/blouses and jeans while at work.
Personality: Triste is reserved and rather secretive. Hyper-sensativity and self-pity are the greatest flaws in her persona. She has a great deal of inner-conflict concerning her background as the child of a human and a vampire. Outwardly, she usually conceals her most personal feelings by being a bubbly hostess and intimate, sympathetic friend. Triste is loving and compassionate, especially toward her friends from work.
Occupation: Co-owner of Finwe's Rockaway Bar and Grille (cleans, decorates, and serves and mixes drinks, as well as engaging in conversation with customers, the bar's regulars, and employees).
Family: Eva Corazon (mother, believed to be deceased) and Geodor Thordolf (father, believed to be deceased). Unnamed Aunt (a Thordolf killed by her father to protect the infant Triste. Her soul once possessed Triste when she was a full vampire, weak from refusing to drink blood from humans.) Others unknown.
Associates/Friends: Kairi Rayne (childhood friend, also a half-vampire and a witch), Chakira Davenport (half-wolf), Janus Zeal (time-traveler in search of lost sister and possible love-interest of Triste), Trent (vampire-slaying android, responsible for her transformation to a full human), Naralia (Neko and vampire, who Triste sympathizes with), Finwe (deceased owner of Finwe's, Triste has vowed to avenge his death if she locates his murderer), Paul Atriedes (current owner of Finwe's, who was at Finwe's side when he died), Bobangelo (Part-Android Neko alchemist and Finwe's regular, his extreme talent as an alchemist saves Triste thousands of dollars in repairs at Finwe's), Nioka Fleur (ex-assassin once hired to kill Triste, currently staying a Finwe's for protection from a former employer)
Birthplace/date: Unknown/February 23rd, year unknown
History: Triste was born the child of Eva Corazon, an aspiring vampire-slayer and her intended victim, Geodor Thordolf, a pureblooded Vampire Lord. When Triste was a few years old, her parents were murdered, but by whom remains a mystery. Her mother's famed vampire-slaying faction, the Corazons, and the elitest clan of the bloodthirsty Thordolfs are equally likely to have committed the murders. Furthermore, Triste is unsure of who rescued her from the murderers and why they did it (as Triste was considered a horrible disgrace and impurity to both families). For several years, she lived on the run with a mysterious, nameless guardian who gave his life to protect young Triste from a pack of merciless assassins. Her memory was lost after her guardian was killed but some information returns with the aid of friends connected to her past, but the information remains mostly unclear. Triste continues to suffer an inner-conflict of which side to support without knowing which faction killed her mother and father. Though ultimately choosing a human life, supposing the Corazons responsible for her rescue, Triste is plagued by second thoughts about her decision. She has been harassed several times by slayers and vampires alike, losing her eye and getting possessed by an evil aunt in her attempts to defend herself. In her travels, she sought to discover the details of her past and end her restlessness, but eventually settled in Barton town and took up work as a server and bartender at a local bar. After spending a couple years in Barton, she has made many friends and some enemies. She continues to yearn for information about her past and has often considered traveling once more but finds such a course unbearable because she would have to leave her newfound companions.
Currently: Triste still works at Finwe's and is very comfortable with her current lifestyle. Questions about her past have lost some of their gravity as Triste's pals seem to overshadow that aspect of her life. Still, reminders sometimes force Triste to recall those questions and often result in a great deal of pain. As much as Triste attempts to forget that part of her life, she remains unable to completely put it behind her. Recently, she was inspired by a dream and realized she needed a break from her everyday life at Finwe's. Leaving Chakira in charge of operating the bar, Triste embarked on her travels, hoping to see some of the most beautiful places in the world and maybe learn more about her past. Upon returning she received an ominous letter from an unnamed sender and left the bar with haste. Now a bizarre man has appeared asking Triste's friends about her location.

[OOC: sometimes i really hate the way i write... i have half a mind to delete the entry before this, even if you do like it Kairi... i'm too critical sweatdrop ]
Dear Diary... or "Dear Mother's Diary", Writing in here seems so awkward. I don't feel right reading my mother's private diary in the first place, but she said she wanted it to return to me. Still i feel like it's wrong. Maybe it's because I've never really kept a diary. So what do I write? Well, there seems to be a woman following me. I'm pretty sure she's an assassin. I guess that should make me a bit concerned, right? I've dealt with it so many times before, though; it's just not a big deal anymore. I'm just worried about my friends mostly. Perhaps I shouldn't underestimate them so much, but I can't guarantee their safety when I'm not with them. Sometimes I get so worried I can't sleep. Then there's this crazy girl, her name is Xanaphilia or something, but she goes by another name. She says she's related to my mother, but I wasn't even aware that I had any living Corazon relatives. Maybe I was wrong or maybe she was just crazy. Either way, her presence became overwhelming to me. I don't really want to write about it, though. I've met this splendid guy... but there's still someone else... Oh, geez, i shouldn't write all this down. What if someone finds it? Oh, I better just stop writing for now before I say too much... I'll regret it later. With love, Triste...

[Inside the cover of this old, worn leather diary, many of the pages have been torn out and the dates on the corner of the page are too tattered to decipher. Here is the first remaining page written in fading scarlet ink on the aged pages.]
Dear Diary, Alas, I fear that keeping such a detailed account of my life hath now become incredibly dangerous; therefore, I have taken the liberty to remove and destroy these documents. I prithee this diary will find its way to the daughter I have separated myself with for her own safety. But stay my quill, i hear footsteps in thither hallway. I must make haste and hide this parchment as yonder Thordolf "brethen" approaches. ~Eva
