Selena is, in one word, beautiful. But then again, aren't all vampires? She stands about 5' 8" with black hair that falls a little past her shoulders. She's healthily thin and athletically built. Her eyes tend to change color from gold to red, depending on her situation or mood. Her smile is always dazzling, and she has white, straight teeth. She always has a sassy look to her, which usually makes people avoid her. Along with that, she always presents a youthful and innocent spirit that allows her to get away with anything. Selena likes to mix and match clothes, and her latest style is skinny jeans with a cool t-shirt. Vests are also a must for this vamp. She loves high tops and hats. Like all vampires, Selena has alabaster pale skin that is rock hard and cold. Her hair is usually curled, or up in some kind of pony tail-related thing. She has side bangs that go perfect with any hairstyle and that shape her heart-shaped face. Her makeup usually consists of black eyeliner and mascara, with eye shadow that matches whatever outfit she's wearing. Her eyes are usually gold, unless she gets very thirsty. When she gets too thirsty, her eyes turn blood red and they seem to sink in a little. She becomes a shade paler and it's very visible, so she needs to keep "hydrated". Her nails are always kept up to date with a fancy French Manicure, and she always has some kind or funky earrings in.
- Personality -
Selena is a very complex individual. She's usually a very nice person, but she can have her mood swings. She tends to avoid dogs, for good reasons, but other than that, animals are her source of food. She found long ago that she preferred to stay away from human blood. She hates being a vampire and wishes she were human, but she has learned to accept it. Instead, she has taken to protecting the human race. It's very easy for her to control her thirst when around humans, so she tends to spend time with them. But she's very secretive. No one has ever been to her house, and she refuses to invite anyone. She's friends with a few humans, but she won't get too close to them, because she knows it will be harder for her once she moves again. She has a lot of self-will which helps her in a lot of areas.
But there are those times when she's in a bad mood. And that's only when she's thirsty. She knows when she's in a bad mood, so she'll stay away from everyone for fear of hurting them. Her greatest fear is getting exposed for being a vampire. Even though she only appears 16, she acts way older. How can she help it when she's 1000 years old anyway? She does enjoy "childish" things though, like Disney movies and cartoons on Saturday mornings.
- History -
On May 15, 1008 Selena Nightingale entered the world kicking and screaming like any normal baby. Her parents, Albert and Elizabeth were very well off, so they could afford to send Selena to school. She went and enjoyed it actually. Not the homework, but she loved being out of the house in a fun environment. She was usually a quiet girl who did her work without complaining, so her parents didn't worry about getting into trouble. Being from England, Selena learned all the fancy etiquette of a proper girl. But the polite Selena wasn't the girl everyone thought she was. She loved to have fun, but didn't know how. Thus she started hanging out with the wrong crowd. It's hard to believe in 1008 there was a "bad crowd", but everyone's got to have them. So Selena and her friend Ella would often hang out and end up drinking somewhere.
It was during one of these outings that Ella ditched Selena to go with some drunk guy. Selena was rather drunk herself when she left the bar. She walked down one alley way and came across Ella and the drunk having sex. Selena started freaking out and the drunk jumped up and pulled Selena into a corner, where he bit her neck. The drunk left her there, lying limp in a bag of garbage. Three days later she woke, feeling very different. The fear of vampires was spreading through the town at the time, so when Selena started craving blood, she realized what she had become. She vowed to help those who shared the same history as her, trying to prevent it. In 1860, Selena traveled to America and settled in every major town before she decided to go for the smaller places. So, in 2007 she settled in the small town of Forks, Washington.

- Example Post -
Samantha sat in her bedroom, reading a random book. She was hardly paying attention at all. She hadn't been paying attention to anything for nearly two months. Every time she thought of him, she fell into a mild depression. Sam missed Julius so much... Her father was starting to get a little worried about her, and when he asked, Samantha just told him he was on a trip with school. Not that Julius attended any school, but her father would be dying to know why he was gone for so long.
Without Julius, Samantha's life was dull and lifeless. Sure, Natasha was there for a hug and a fun sleepover, but it always felt like a part of her was missing. With a tired sigh, Sam turned the page of the book, skimming over the page. What am I reading? She thought as she turned her hand to see the cover. Chasing Midnight. A Harlequin romance. She glanced at the clock next to her and released another sigh. 10:30 pm. She let the book close as she stood and went to her bed to retrieve her pajamas. She changed quickly, eagerly waiting for sleep. She quickly slipped down the stairs to say goodnight to her father and climbed back up to her room. Flipping off the light, Sam welcomed the darkness. She climbed into bed, drawing the covers over her body and snuggling deep down into her mattress.
Ping! Ping! Ping! The small sound against her window made Samantha jump. She sat up and looked towards her window, a little scared. She cautiously got out of bed and walked to the window. A large, dark shape made her breath catch. Who am I kidding? I'm a werewolf; I can claw this guy's eyes out. She gripped the bottom of the window and pulled up, a soft night air drifting into her room. A very familiar face smiled at her and her heart melted.
Julius.
Oh! She exclaimed, clearly surprised. She leaned out and wrapped her thin arms around his neck. Oh, Julius! I've missed you so much! She sighed into his neck. Those last two months disappeared right then, leaving her with just this moment of a sweet reunion.
