Personal history

Spoilers. Do not click.


• 1910 - Malady Edith Norwood is born in Louisiana, America to wealthy British immigrants.


• 1910 - Her parents are wealthy plantation owners which keeps them away on business for weeks on end. For most of Malady’s early childhood, she is taken care of by her Creole nanny, Maria. She comes to think of Maria as a second mother.


• 1917 - During a particularly cold winter, Malady suddenly falls ill and doesn’t ever seem to recuperate. She is plagued with fatigue and remains bed-ridden most days. Her parents, although still busy, dote on her completely, fulfilling her every whim, no matter how exorbitant. At her parents bequest, Maria returns early from a trip to visit family in New Orleans. She stays close to Malady during this time, entertaining her with bed time stories of the deep south and voodoo.


• 1920 ~ 1925 - It appears as if Malady will never recover from her illness. If anything, she is becoming worse. Her parents fret over her in a superficial way; they spend their wealth on the best doctors money can buy, but none of whom can find the cause of Malady’s sickness. Some even suggest that her affliction is psychological. Her parents refuse to believe it.


• 1925 - Malady’s condition suddenly takes a turn for the worse. She takes a trip to New Orleans with her nanny, Maria, where she is introduced to her daughter Letitia who is around her age. Malady realises that Letitia is the true object of her nanny’s affections and feels utterly betrayed. When Malady returns home, she is overcome with fever, shakes and sores. Her bed nurses pity her and Malady secretly relishes in the attention.


• 1926 - Malady’s parents have gone through most doctors in America’s southern region and decide to bring in a specialist from abroad. Camilla Sutton arrives from London two months later. She visits Malady two times a week at evening. She indulges Malady in all of her conceived illnesses. Marie is incredibly distrustful of the doctor and voices her suspicions. Although Malady’s condition never improves, it is maintained by Dr. Camilla Sutton.


• 1927 - While away on business, there is a freak fire in the hotel her parents are staying at and both of them perish in the blaze. Malady inherits the entire estate and withdraws from society completely, staying locked in her bedroom. The only two people she will allow to see her are Marie and her doctor.


• 1928 - On the eve of her 18th birthday, she is paid an unexpected visit by Camilla. Once alone, Camilla suddenly attacks her. Malady is frail and cannot fight her off. She succumbs to the bite … and dies.
 
 
• ??? - Malady wakes up a number of years later. Everyone is gone. Her parents. Her doctor. Her nanny. She discovers she is a ghost and haunts the now empty manor, frightening anyone who dares to venture inside.
 
• ??? - The longer she roams the walls of her vacant home, the more desperate she becomes to return to her former life. She clings onto what few memories she has left and they become warped and twisted. She remembers the night before her death with Maria begging her to eat something to aid her failing strength. Rumours start spreading of the haunted house on the hill.
 
• ??? - Malady obsesses over this final memory until every word is ingrained in her skull. She must eat. She comes to the conclusion that this is her unfinished business. She stops frightening away visitors and invites them in for supper instead.
 
• ??? - Two men come to investigate the haunted house and Malady devours them both. Unfortunately, these men turn out to be ghouls belonging to the sheriff, who does not take kindly to his property being eaten. He and several other high-ranking vampires raid the plantation and find Malady.
 
• ??? - Interrogation proves frustratingly futile. Malady claims to be sick and sore all over and too fatigued to speak. The more they push, the less they speak. The only useful information they manage to pull from her is the name Sutton, a name that had not been spoken in the Louisiana court in decades. Outraged, the prince orders Malady to be shoved into a lead-lined crate with no return address and shipped out to sea.
 
 
• 2018 - January - Malady arrives in Melbourne, almost a century later, starved and raving mad. A withered husk, looking more like a mummy than a seventeen year old girl. Two unfortunate shipping contractors are the first to stumble upon her hundred year old crate. As soon as the door is wedged open she attacks them both and drains them dry, so hungry she feasts on their remains.
 
• 2018 - January - Although Malady escapes, news of a bloody massacre in a loading dock makes it way to Melbourne court and they realise they have a huge masquerade breach on their hands. The warden finds her and throws her before @Prince to be judged. He takes pity on her for one reason or another, and blood bonds her to @Angela.
 
• 2018 - January - Malady becomes instantly enamoured with the woman and entirely dependant upon her. Although Malady keeps up her sickly and fatigued act, and still staunchly believes that she is a ghost with no interest in the politics of vampire court, she would do almost anything for @Angela. The sheriff uses this to her advantage, catering to Malady’s delusions in order to shape and mould her to her own personal advantage.
 
• 2018 - August - Even as the bond between Malady and @Angela weakens, Malady still draws ever closer to her. But instead of carrying out Angela’s desires at her own personal cost, she manipulates those around her. Gradually the courts perspective has shifted. What harm could Malady do? Such a small and frail vampire? So young and sweet. Malady seeks to be adored, and there were many around her that seek to adore her, or at least give her leniency when it is not deserved. The courts know nothing of her real degeneracy – something that Angela discovered early and kept well hidden from everyone else.

 

Mental Trauma

She is thoroughly convinced she is a ghost. To those that will listen (and she will certainly make you listen), she will speak of fondly of her nanny and doctor although the details are hazy and vague.

Intellectual Characteristics

Despite her antiquated views on society, she is intelligent and educated to a degree.

Morality & Philosophy

Mortals are beneath her. Kindred society is also beneath her. But she so desperately wants to be part of something.

person.sexuality

Definitely has known to favour women, although it's hard to tell if it's attraction or simply a Jocasta complex.

Blood Sacrifice pt II

by Malady Eden Norwood

* Stuck in basement with Larissa and some guy who is bleeding out on the floor.
 
* Bishop is very rude, but also taken aback by Malady's claim of not being a vampire.
 
*Malady looks around and sees a gap in the fog of the bricks.
 
*Larissa claims to see trains and bricks. Malady opens a door in the wall. Larissa cries. There's another wall and Malady pulls a lever. Larissa is unhinged from reality so Malady compels her to imagine herself as a sack of potatoes and puts one of her socks in Larissa's mouth. She carries them out. Her stomach is rumbling.
 
* Goes invisible. Eventually Larissa wakes up. Malady drops her and continues on. Larissa wanders after her.
 
*Larissa messes around with the computer.
 
*Sneaks outside to 8ft wall. Larissa climbs over the wall. Malady can't get over. Feeds Yuri her blood and he wakes up and lifts her over. He manages to get over himself.
