HISTORY: Amaranth:
Amaranth, then called Luke, was born into an esteemed, noble Astarian family of scientists. His father was the head of a research company, and by the time he was born, it was already decided that his elder brother, Cedrik, who was three years older, would inherit the money, job, and title when he reached adulthood. However, that didn't stop his parents from Luke teaching about their 'art' from a young age.
Luke's father was a lot like him, and Luke himself quickly became very enchanted by his research and ideals. He was a strange child, much different from other boys his age, and even his own brother, but his parents were very impressed by his inquisitive mind and drive to make things harmonious and 'beautiful'. His parents said he had the mind of a true scientist.
However, they began to consider Cedrik, who was already in line to inherit the title, a bit of a disappointment in comparison to his younger brother. Luke himself looked up to his older brother dearly even though they were quite different, which made Cedrik love and dote on his little brother, but he started to become resentful of his parents.
One day when Luke was nine, Cedrik, who would sometimes try and sneak out for some fun while his critical parents were sleeping, got attacked while wandering about the woods outside their mansion and came back as a wolverine +anima.
This only increased their parents disapproval, though they never openly said much. However, though Luke didn't know it, they actually began cruelly using their own son in their experiments. Cedrik suffered greatly, but didn't resist, hoping that he could help his parents this way and finally make them proud by enduring it.
A year later, it was announced that Luke would inherit the company and title of head scientist when he got older instead of Cedrik. Cedrik's mind had already begun to deteriorate in anger, and that was the last straw before his sanity completely snapped.
One night shortly after, Luke woke up to the sound his parents screaming. Terrified, he hurried to their bedroom, only to find Cedrik hovering over their bed in his +anima form, with blood staining his claws.
Neighbors who'd heard the scream through their open bedroom window fetched authorities who promptly came to arrest Cedrik. He fought back, injuring several officers before they finally were forced to kill him.
Luke had stood frozen in shock as he'd watched the whole thing and slowly came to comprehend that his entire family was dead. Horrified, he never was able to accept that the person who'd killed his parents had been his beloved older brother. He blamed it on Cedrik's +anima, saying that his brother had already died, and that it was a beast who'd taken his place and savagely murdered their parents.
The officers were planning to take him to an orphanage, but he disappeared before they came to take him. Taking the the large amount of left-over family money, he ran away to Sailand, abandoning his family name as he sought somewhere else to become a researcher.
He found an academy that he joined using the wealth of his family, and changed his name to Amaranth, eventually becoming an eccentric but esteemed scientist, though many of his colleagues were disturbed by his ideas. He strives to create a 'beautiful' world where 'ugly' things like what happened to his family don't exist, and where people themselves can become beautiful forever. He quickly realized that the secrets +anima hold - the very thing he blames for the death of his family - might be the best end to this means. He spends of lot of time searching for and researching specimens.
Shakaya:
Shakaya was born into an average Sailand family, where she grew up as a doted on only child. She lived a very comfortable life in her younger years. Though they lacked any noble standing, her family was fairly wealthy - they had money to keep +anima slaves, own a large, comfortable house, and give Shakaya the best education that they could. Having a naturally sharp, inquiring mind, Shakaya became interested in research from a very young age, and her parents supported her training in the field even though such a job was uncommon for girls at the time.
With her combination of looks, shy but kind personality, and brains, she was very popular and well-liked in the village as a child, and couldn't have been happier.
However, everything changed one night, when all of the slaves in her home and village suddenly led a rebellion, lead by a mysterious girl hardly older than her who had a pale fox-ear and tail and wore a white dress and strange theatre mask. She watched her whole village burn to the ground - with everyone and everything she loved dying. She managed to escape, sneaking out the window of her room and out into the woods behind her house during the violent raid. She was one of the sole survivors, and everyone she loved had died. Her mother, her father, her grandparents, all of her friends, all the villagers who had loved her. She never was the same since, and was completely overcome with an intense, feverish hatred for +anima.
Devastated, angry, terrified, and with nothing else left, she went to the research academy her parents had sometimes taken her too in Stella. She'd been too young to formerly become a student, but she had spoken to some of the scientists there in the past, and when she showed up teary-eyed at their doorstep, they were quick to let her in. She remained there, and became an official researcher herself in time.
She felt furious and empty inside, though, and lost all the passion she had for research. All she wanted to do was find a way to destroy +anima, so to numb her pain she put all the effort she had into technology and weapons development, hoping to find a way to exterminate them for good.
The only person she grew close to in the academy was a boy a few years older than her who called himself Amaranth, and who was interested in doing experiments on +anima, speaking about things such as 'genetics' and 'beauty' and the like. He was kind to her, and when she told him what had happened to her family, he told her his own story, and she realized how alike they were. They grew increasingly close through the years, and she came to rely on his companionship to keep herself going. Her feelings for him also began to develop and change as they grew older.
Now, there are only two things that the hallow young woman lives for. Being with Amaranth and protecting him, and watching +anima suffer. She also desires revenge against the masked fox +anima who led the rebellion on her village, and seeks out places where she was sighted when she can. She's kept on a veil of being calm and put together, and is still well-respected for her continuing research, but inside a part of her has gone completely mad. And though she still often smiles, the only thing that brings her true joy is watching a +anima die. She goes along with her studies and relies on Amaranth to keep herself from fading away, but inside she knows she could never be happy again unless every single +anima was slaughtered and burned while she watched with delighted eyes, and it's what she secretly and sadistically longs for more than anything.
