Character Basics
Name: Aurora Vuokka Valpuri Makela (born Sisko Noora Tynne Makela)
Nickname:Vikky
Age: Biological 25, Chronological 138
Appearance
Looks: Aurora is slightly shorter than her twin brother and very slight. She has shoulder length dark brown hair, though she keeps it coloured black because she likes it better. She is a quirky person, what humans would likely describe as a goth, something that comes across in her clothing, often wearing rock-chick type clothing such as studded or spiked collar chokers, chains, mainly black clothing, red or black lipstick and black eyeliner, enjoying setting off her vampiric white skin and red eyes to full effect. She normally wears her hair in braids or pigtails or loose, allowing the natural curliness to take over. When at home, when she has a base to call home, she tends to wear a lab coat for when she decides to do experiments, something she tends to do on the spur of the moment.
Scars, tattoos, other marks: a large cross on her back, spiderweb on her neck, among others
Portrayed by: (may include photo here) Pauley Perrette
Personality and Stats
Basic Personality: Vikky is a very happy-go-lucky person, something that has carried over from her human life. While she can seem moody at times because of her slightly morbid behaviour and interests, she is in fact very cheerful and affectionate, though her affection rarely extends beyond fleeting friendships. She enjoys listening to rock and classical music, reading, exploring and watching people. Like her brother, she is very impulsive, something that has a habit of getting her in trouble. She learned a lot of what she knows from her brother, though she had little education herself because of her status as a woman in a rather old-fashioned family causing her to be forced to stay at home and is very intelligent.
Species: Vampire
Abilities: basic vampire
Occupation: none but spends her spare time, when not hunting, studying forensics (avoiding anything involving blood) out of fascination for the subject.
Car:
History:
Birthplace: Helsinki, Finland
Family: twin brother Veikko Makela, all others deceased
Friends: none
History: Sisko Makela was born in Helsinki, Finland, the twin sister of Veikko Makela. Although as children, Veikko and Sisko were very much alike, Veikko was given the highest priority in the household, their parents seeing his potential to follow in his father’s footsteps. As a result, Sisko was left to her own devices, something that suited her well due to her naturally rebellious nature. She hated to be controlled in any aspect of her life and found that when her mother felt Sisko’s place was in the home once she had finished school, there was little reason to revolt. She could learn everything she needed in her own time rather than be restricted by structured studies and soon found herself standing proudly on the sidelines while her brother studied law.
When she was 25, Sisko had been on her way to meet her brother after a day at the courts. Shortly before finding her brother, however, she was attacked by a man she later found out to have been a vampire. He had almost finished draining Sisko’s blood when another vampire ran by, distracting the one that was feeding on her. Seemingly afraid of being caught, he dropped her and fled, leaving her to die in the alleyway she had been using as a shortcut. Days later, having found herself transformed into one of the creatures she had read about in stories, she attempted to return home, desperate to explain to her brother what had happened. On her way, however, she overheard one of their neighbours talking about Veikko, saying he had been brought home on the verge of death shortly before a massacre took place in the house, the servants all being killed.
Assuming Veikko had died with the others, she fled Helsinki, living on her own for the first few decades of her life as a vampire. In an effort to avoid detection, and in memory of her brother, Sisko changed her name to Aurora with Vuokka as a middle name, the closest name she could think of to her brother’s. Her new life was hard on her at first, the extremes of newborn emotion hard to handle after her normally bubbly human personality. She soon adapted to her new life, however, and found that she enjoyed it, the newfound abilities giving her infinite possibilities for indulging her more upbeat side as well as enjoying the prospect of being essentially immortal. She currently travels the world as much as she can, every so often finding a house to rent in the countryside where she can spend time enjoying her hobbies of learning and listening to loud music. She still misses her brother but has come to terms with the fact that she will never see him again and instead focuses on living life, as it applies to her kind, to the fullest in his memory.
