BACKSTORY (how he/she became involved with the supernatural):

BACKSTORY (how he/she became involved with the supernatural):

Luz was just like every other young woman in Spain in 1782. She was living with her parents, David and Ana, until her marriage to her fiance, Cristoph. All was normal until the influenza pandemic of that time hit Spain. The virus had already left thousands dead across Russia and the rest of Europe, and it was no different in Spain. There was no escaping the death that surrounded everything. And Luz was caught up in the hysteria when both of her parents contracted the virus and were killed. Devastated by the loss of her parents, Luz was lost and confused, and threw herself into Cristoph's arms. He claimed to know of a ship taking survivors to a new country across the sea, called the United States of America. And so, with no other loved ones in Spain, Luz agreed to start over in this new land. However, not more than four days into the trip, Cristoph began to show the symptoms of the influenza. Terrified of catching the virus themselves, the other passengers barricaded Cristoph and Luz inside one small cabin. Two days after that, Cristoph passed in Luz's arms. Now, with everyone that she cared about dead, she wanted nothing more than to die herself. And it seemed like she would get her wish when she contracted the virus from Cristoph's body. Luz was lost in a haze from the fever, hours from death when a dark haired stranger knelt before her. He spoke to her about saving her, and about her never having to worry about illness again. She thought he was insane, there was no cure for influenza in this state, and she didn't even want to be cured, but she didn't have the strength to tell him that. The stranger waited until Luz's eyes slid closed, and she was near her last breath, to bite open his arm and hold the wound to her mouth, letting the blood flow down her throat. Her last memory for nearly three days is of gagging on the dark, thick liquid. When Luz woke up again, the ship had docked in New York. Learning to deal with what she was and to control the thirst was difficult for Luz. She struggled at first with killing small animals to feed on them, but with time she adjusted to the concept. She has spent the last two centuries moving around the US, never staying in one place for too long for fear of being discovered. Once in a while, if she heard of blood bank thefts or "animal attacks" in an area, that would be where she'd go to try to meet up with some others like her. Sometimes she made friends with the others, and sometimes she made enemies. Now she's heard about "animal attacks", as well as blood bank thefts in a little town called Mystic Falls, Virginia, and so that's her next destination.
