Dislikes

Personality
xxHellbent – Thalia is one of the most driven people one will ever meet. When she sets her mind to a specific goal, she will moves mountains if she has to to get the job done. This is especially true of matters involving vampires.
xxSerious – Thalia has a reputation for being somewhat brooding and humorless. While this is not entirely true, she can be somewhat quiet and grave in tone. She takes herself rather seriously, and will rarely take insults kindly unless it comes from those she considers friends.
xxSarcastic – With friends, she herself can be quite snarky, but it is always with good intentions.
xxPassionate – Thalia does not believe in half measures, and wears her heart on her sleeve often. When she is angry, the anger is practically palpable. When she is happy, it radiates from her until it threatens to infect the room. When she is in love, everyone knows her bliss. And this holds true for all her emotions.
xxDevoted – Thalia is almost singlemindedly devoted to the cause of exterminating the vampire menace. Every single other thing in her life takes a back seat to this cause. As long as there are vampires living, she is working to destroying them. Most of all, she is devoted to hunting down and killing the vampires who killed her family, lead by a one-eyed Vampire Lord.
xxKnowledgeable – Thalia is extremely knowledgeable about matters involving the undead, especially vampires. She can easily spot vampires just based on physical appearance easier than most others.
History
xxThalia Sarkissian does not remember too much of her life before she was orphaned. She remembers that she once lived in The Rift up until her eighth year. Her family life was relatively peaceful. Her parents were both former Companions turned farmers. She would help her parents on the field during the days when she was not playing with toy swords with her neighbors' children. She had a relatively happy childhood, until one fateful night would take everything from her. She woke up to the sounds of screams, running to her parents' room only to find her father's cold, grey corpse lying in the doorway.
She ran toward the fireplace to take her mother's sword, but it was far too heavy for her to wield effectively against her attackers. She arrived too late, finding her mother completely drained of blood, her body sprawled under a massive bipedal creature with wings and one eye, a scar where the other one would be. Immediately she was struck with terror and ran away, sword trailing behind her, but she found herself surrounded by even more vampires. She was a hair's breath away from death when a man stormed into the house, bright lights shining from his hands. He fired these bright lights at the vampires, burning a few of them. Fearing for their lives, the remaining vampires fled into the night, transforming into a swarm of bats.
Once the vampires were gone, the man turned to the young girl, and introduced himself as Garm, a vampire hunter. He was a former member of the Vigilants of Stendarr who now worked as a rogue vampire hunter. He offered his sympathies, and begged for forgiveness for not arriving soon enough to save her family. He was going to take her to the orphanage at Riften, when in a sudden burst of anger Thalia proclaimed loudly “I want to kill them all.” When Garm asked her to elaborate, she stated that she wanted to kill all vampires, holding up her mother's sword as she did so. Seeing a fire within the little girl, he decided to adopt her and train her to get ravenge on the undead. For years Garm trained Thalia as both a warrior and as a mage in the Restoration school of magic, in order to be able to fight such monsters.
Eventually, by the time she reached adulthood, Garm fell in battle to some Volkihar vampires. Thalia decided to strike out on her own, hunting down these creatures, earning herself a reputation as “the Fang-Crusher,” often bringing fear into smaller vampire covens. Soon, the Volkihar vampire clan became more brazen and started attacking local Skyrim towns more openly. As a response to this, the Dawnguard was reformed by another former Vigilant named Isran. Naturally, she was inclined to join the the group of vampire hunters, finding joy in meeting others just as dedicated to hunting vampires as she is. Now she no longer had to be completely on her own as she destroyed the undead.
