biography
liu wasn't created out of hatred, out of experimentation, nor a curse, or anything of the sort. liu's mother and father were both magi and both being hunted for their execution. to this day, liu still has no idea why. out of fear that their daughter would become what they were, and would have no protection, they gifted her, but never really had the chance to tell her what she would become. the night that they disappeared, they cast a spell on liu. the spell knocked her out, and when she awoke, her parents were gone. the fear of being abandoned filled her, but that was the least of her worries. as soon as the full moon peaked, her transformation was upon her. the pain was the worst thing she's ever felt in her life. her bones snapped and reshaped, her spine lengthening, fur bursting through her skin.
the first thing that happened to liu after her change, was her demolition of an entire village. it was a massacre by the time she was through. blood stained the earth, death hung in the air, and liu was devastated. she didn't know what else to do, so she simply began surviving the way she and her parents had. when liu hit the age of twenty-four, she stopped aging, and that was when she decided to roam into the empire that was growing rapidly. word of her arrival spread like wildfire. it wasn't because people knew what she was, but it was due to the fact that her beauty was by far the most outstanding thing anyone had seen. she was in one of her mother's dress, since she continued to grow out of all of her clothes and a pair of old flats. it was simply the aura she put off. people turned and stared, captivated by her stunning blue eyes and eventually word got to the emperor and she was invited to the palace... well, commanded to go.
so, she did, and before even meeting the emperor, she was treated to a warm bath, clothed, and then taken to the dining hall to have dinner with the emperor himself. he offered her stay there, just so she would have a roof over her head and would be protected. liu tried to turn down the offer, but he insisted. liu agreed reluctantly, knowing very well she could protect herself, but didn't want to appear rude. she lived there for around two years, when the emperor, in a drunken rage attempted to rape her. over the years she had turned down multiple marriage proposals from him, and she assumed the rage that had built up consumed him and he did what he did. well, attempted to. liu simply threw him to the side like a rag doll and vanished. as she was leaving the palace in a flurry, the sound of the horns told her that he wanted her head. in the dead of night, she shifted into her leopard form and headed north into russia.
liu was exhausted and hungry when she stumbled upon a tiny russian village in the center part of the country. the cold was destroying her. her black coat was frozen, her eyes and feet extremely heavy. in her exhaustion, her body forced herself back into human form and she collapsed, unable to continue. luckily, she was found by men that were returning from a hunting trip and she was taken to safety, cared for by the women of the tribe. when liu finally awoke, the people acted afraid of her, and she understood why. she looked different from them and spoke a different language; they couldn't communicate at all. liu didn't want them to be afraid of her, though, so she began to find ways to show them how she was feeling or trying to say.
a few years passed and liu was beginning to understand the slovak language and was able to communicate very well with them. the tribe even discovered what she was, and did not reject her. she had become a nurse, a nanny, and eventually began helping the men hunt. everything was perfect. they told her that she was welcome within their care for as long as she pleased, and she stayed for almost one thousand years. everything was in perfect harmony, until one full moon rumor hit that a family had been murdered by another cat. the elder of the tribe feared that it may be another like liu, but she shook her head, explaining that she kept track of all of her descendants and made sure they were in control before allowing them to be alone on a full moon. she took it upon herself to investigate and find this cat.
it wasn't very difficult, seeing as how there weren't many other tigers roaming. all of liu's creations were different types of leopards. nor was it very hard to discover him. while she was over looking the hillside, she heard the terrified screams of a man and look down to see a very large siberian tiger hot on his tail. fearing for the man's life, liu burst into her cat form and interfered on the attack, stopping the tiger from killing the man. it took her almost a month to find out who the man was. dimitri markovic was his name and low and behold... it was him who slaughtered his family. how he was changed was incredible to liu. the cruelty of it destroyed her. so, she vowed to help him to the best of her ability and promised to help him through his grief.
so many years passed. liu and dimitri became the best of friends. to dimitri she was his helping hand and shoulder to lean on. to liu? dimitri had become everything. every time he came around her heart fluttered and she didn't know how to behave. she couldn't tell him how she felt, either, because of the fact that no matter how much he attempted to hide it, she knew he was still grieving over the loss of his family. so, she buried her feelings and, feeling that he was very well in control of himself, she left, leaving her one and only love behind.
liu traveled all across europe. from greece, to sparta, to italy, to france, and spain. she lived in each culture for a hundred years or more before she would move on. during her stay in italy, she met a very interesting werebear that somehow managed to draw her heart off of dimitri for a short time. he was young, though, and a very temperamental werecreature. he was dangerous at times, but it was nothing for liu. he fell very much in love with her, but liu had to stay true to her feelings, and told him that she needed to go; and she left.
eventually, new species began to make themselves known. werewolves came, and so did vampires and shifters. magi had been around for thousands of years, even before she was created. magic was the oldest form of supernatural activity. liu watched as cultures and cities were destroyed because of the feuds that broke out between different species. she watched as her own creatures turned against werewolves and werebears, shifters, and vampires. the war was ongoing, and years passed and it never ceased. no matter where she went it was brewing. humans had even taken up arms, and magi were beginning to take sides. the peaceful world that she once knew was crashing down, and it deeply saddened her.
liu even made her way down into the depths of austrailia, eventually. she also made her way to south america, and once the new world of north america began to flourish, she traveled that as well. five thousand years passed, and the modern world had taken over. she grew and blended with it, taking on technology, cars, fashion, everything. it was beautiful to her, to watch how her world had changed through the time. in present time, she lives happily in new york city as a fashion designer. she is well-known for her clothes, and that is it. no one knows of what she is, and that is how she wants to keep it. she is a ghost, and that is how she feels it needs to stay.
