Nemo's History (years 0-20)
Growing up, Nemo never knew her parents. She was orphaned at birth and found by an evil rich guy. He raised her to be the main bride to his son and heir, but somewhat, his personal "servant", if you catch my drift. If your naiive, then to put it sort of bluntly, she was sexually abused/raped as a child by her master. At age eight, while with the family on a get-away trip deep in the moutains, she murdered the family and the attending servants and burned the house down. In shock and confusion of what she did, she ran and started roaming.
When she was thirteen, she came across a group of men, beating around a wolf pup for fun. She tried to stop them with non-violent methods so they took avantage of that and before Nemo knew it, her cloths were ripped off and she was back in the predicament she tried to escape five years ago except there was more men involved as they passed her around like a hot potatoe. Crying and screaming for help, she was too deep within the mountainous forest for anyone to hear. But help was there. As the man on top of her fell in pain, she found a savior in the little wolf pup she tried so hard to save. Both her and the brutal men knew the pup's weakness was that he was young and beaten too badly to continue for too long. Before they could use this against the puppy, Dios quickly killed each of them.
Desperate for medical attention, she scooped up the wolf and stuttered towards a village. Blacking out just near the enterance, she awoke in the hut of an elderly man and woman aswell as the wolf pup sleeping protectively beside her. After recovering, she decided to stay with the man and woman who had lost their son in war prior to her arrival. She believed she could still repent for what she had done by giving this couple back their son. She cut her hair but left a piece in request of the old woman to braid. She lived peacefull with the wolf pup she named Shikawa and the elderly couple for five years but it wasn't meant to last. Bandits raided the town and burned it to the ground just as she did to the summer estate ten years prior to this burning. The elderly man couldn't move from the house and the elderly woman vowed to go down with him. Nemo, so desperately wanting to stay and die with them, honored their wishes of her living so she took Shikawa and ran. Feeling as though if she settled down somewhere, she'd only bring misery, pain, and suffering, she took up roaming again. She sort of just disappeared for a long while with Shikawa after that.
After years of disappearance, she has resurfaced. But she is not the same. She travels from village to village as a beautiful, blacked haired kimono and cloak wearing woman who is polite and cheerful. But she changes. No one can tell of these changes except those who can read auras and even then they are iffy.
She is normally her alter-ego Kami. A rather boring nomad who goes from village to village collecting stories. Kami collects stories out of interest, Nemo is apathetic to them unless they involve a bounty or someway to display her power.

The Draco Family's Story
The Draco[nis] family is of Greek/Roman descent, the ruins of their mansion somewhere in Italy. The family has four children. Those four children mate with an outsider to produce four more children, one each. The children are always cousins of some sort, never siblings. They do not know how it actually began, but myth says the heavenly goddess Athena gave them the scrolls of wisdom and the power to protect them. These powers did not include eternal life, but extended life. They must mate after 600 years and are given 100 to train their successor and then they die. The Draco twins are a special case. Their cousin parents felt that outsiders were not worthy of their heritage and mated to produce the greatest child who would know both flame and water techniques. Unbeknowst to them at the time, they were to give birth to twins, a rare and unholy thing at the time. And so they were punished. The father trained the daughter and the mother trained the son in their shame. When the siblings were young, their uncle, the hierachy of the family and master of wind, lost his wife due to her death in child birth which the babe came out stillborn. A few years later, a woman appeared on their doorstep, curious about their family with a toddler boy and animal companions. Their uncle thought that she was the goddess Athena herself with her strong display of power and wisdom beyond her years. Their father thought that she was the goddess Aretmis, with her animal companions and night time reflexes. All and all, their uncle chose her to carry on the power of wind. And their aunt, who could not have children, took in the toddler as her own so he can be that of earth. 80 years passed and while the twins were still in training, the traveler was already the hierarchy. She was kind and gracious in the next 10 years, serving as wife to their uncle as well as his successor. They tend to forget she was not of the family. On the eve of their uncle's death, after the ceremony and while the twins were practicing for their final test, a fire started. Neither Aquatilis nor Igenous could put it out as the wind was too strong. The wind was too strong. The servants were slain and the scrolls gone, the three remaining elders confronted the woman, but she was too powerful for them. Her own strength combined with that of the family's, she proved to be a devil, not a goddess. Leaving the two "teens" for dead, she left into the ashes not to return. The grown up toddler boy, watched this, not hating the woman for abandoning him, but idolizing her for her power and vowed to find her to serve under her. The female twin was given rage and ambition to kill the woman, the male was given grief as he had lost everything but his sister and a boy he thought of as a brother. They have traveled the world together... the three of them... to gain knowledge of life's mysteries and discovered the woman who once destroyed/enhanced their lives.
