†Personality†
Basic Personality:
Cali is a rather complicated person, as many different people are. She is actually a very intelligent and astute person who seems to possess absolutely no interest in her own intelligence. She prefers to play music over or just live her life freely to her own interests. She doesn't like to involve herself in other's troubles, and does her best to keep out of the going ons of others. She, of course favors the Were-wolves, but tries to keep out of trouble. Cali has little to no trouble when it comes to learning most things, she actually excels in the learning of new things. However she's never been to interested in using her intellegect for anything but music, dancing, as well as Capoeira.. She tends to be easily frustrated, especially when she has difficulty with something, that however may be related to the fact she's a tad bit of a perfectionist.
Over the years one would think Calypso would have become more withdrawn and have learned to keep a mask of indifference upon her features and be more mistrustful of people, but she's actually quite the oposite. In all reality she is a rather bubbly and an obnoxiously energetic and chaotic girl. Cali is full of life, and has a temper like no other, she can be irrational and more often than not she acts without thinking, regardless of the consequences. She doesn't take to well to those who wish to control her, but tries to keep her temper, if a person tells her what to do to much and tries to push her around too much she will end up flaring up at them. Which can have deadly consequences. And while she is no leader, she will not get along with bossy people due to her free spirited nature. Despite her energy and usual attempt to keep out of things sheis definitely a 'shoot first and asks questions later' kind of gal, metaphorically speaking... of course. [But if she does use a gun, she's a hellva shot, kinda makes up for her lack of strength, though she much prefers Bravo 81's she'll sttle for less]. Her fearless nature is both enticing and dangerous, as she is capable of making things go "boom" very quickly. In all reality she is rather a brilliant strategist, mainly from growing up playing chess constantly and being pitted against her brother, but her strategies usually involve going in with 'guns blazing', basically violence first, just part of her personality. As children her brother frequently had to hold her back to prevent her from doing anything stupid.
Calypso tends to be on the naive side, she is over trusting and friendly to a fault, always trying to see the best in people. Something that in the past has gotten her into a great deal of trouble. And of course if she figures out that she's being used or lied to, that temper of hers tends to come out. But if you want a chance to see Cali peaceful and silent for once, or at least more so than usual, you should catch her when she is playing her violin or singing or dancing. Then will be one of the few times she allows herself to calm down and relax. It's the passion she holds to wards music that keeps her calm. To be honest, determination is definitely something she has a great deal of. She is often restless, and sleepless and ends up roaming around during the nights, usually outside, especially on nights when her nightmares are particulairly bad. Music is her one escape, the thing that calms her. But on nights when there are storms, the thunder and lightning leaves her nothing short of catatonic. Despite it all she puts on a happy face.

†History:†
History:
Bethany was a human girl who assissted Mickael in his duties as one of the higher ups in the werewolf food chain. After a few years of working togehter, they began a relation ship and after Toni, their first son was born, they finally married, or 'mated'. They were in a relationship for four more years before they finally had a second child. This time a daughter, who they named Calypso Tempist David. Bethany named her daughter that after the rather fierce weather they'd had during the day of her birth. Birthing Calypso was particuliarily harsh on Bethany due to the fact she was often ill for most of her life. From the day Calypso was born her father blamed her for the death of her mother.
By her frist birthday Calypso's brother Toni had developed a very tight bond with his baby sister. Five years old and the youth already understood what it meant to be a big brother. A good thing too, since their father had taken to drinking heavily and often had terribly violent fits of anger, where he'd throw things or destroy furniture. At five he'd learned how to take his baby sister and find a good hiding place. He was the perfect big brother, doing all he could to protect his baby sister and keep the two of them safe.
At age two Calypso was already displaying skills of her intelligence, speaking and repeating any musical notes she heard back. Toni was six years old at this time, and already gaining mastery of his shapeshifting, continuing to protect his sister from their father who was sinking further and further down the road to destruction. His drinking in the past year had gotten worse and worse, almost lethal amounts at times. Even at a young age one could see the respeblance between herself and the beauty that had been her mother.
When she turned three years old her brother began to attend a school, and was around the house much less. Her father was rarely ever there but she found herself in the care of her mother's twin sister Katlyn. The sweet woman came everyday and took care of Cali and was the one who began to teach her how to play music. At three years old Cali was already learning how to play the piano and violin, and Katlyn was teaching her how to sing.
After a year of caring for Cali, Katlyn grew angry and confronted her brother-in-law about his slip into the oblivion of alcohol, and his neglect of his two children. Toni already eight years old had begun to have a dislike of his father and the 'love' he bore for his two children. He was resentful of the man who'd given him life only to turn his back on him and his sister when things got to difficult. At first Mickael was angered that she'd confronted him and the two had a fight, and when the fiesty woman didn't stand down, he finally [albeat with much reluctance, began to cut back on the amount of alcohol he was drinking].
As the year progressed, he began to drink less and less, and spent more time at home trying to bond with his son, while his daughter refused to even acknowledge him as a father figure, instead clinging to Katlyn. While the woman looked nothing like her ethereal dark haired, fair skinned twin, Cali began to rapidly view the golden haired, tanned skinned woman as her mother figure. Her brother too had begun to see his aunt as more of a mother figure, since over the years she'd been there for him more and more.
Within a year, right after Cali's sixth birthday, her father finally laid off the alcohol and opened his eyes to a new potential love in life. He shared an increasing interest in Katlyn that ended up being mutual. The two began a happy family life style, and for the first time in Calypso's life things went smoothly and family life seemed good. She was given a violin as a gift, her first violin, and began to rapidly gain experience in music.
Half a year after Cali's seventh birthday her father and Katlyn married. It was about during this time when she was finally adapting and beginning to manage her transformations. She and her brother maintained a close relationship, but they tended to be competitive with one another, she was faster with running, and at a young age she was sharp and held a talent for music, versus her brother who was strong, had a nack for fighting and was ruled by sports. He unlike her however made the attempt to do his best as far as his intelligence went. Calypso began her first years of school during her sixth and seventh year of life, and with her incrediably bubbly nature she had little to no trouble making new friends.
A year later her father desided to turn Katlyn after she coinvinced him it would be fine. They had a tough month, each family member terrified that they might loose her. But she ended up pulling through alright, and the family managed to heave a silent sigh of relief. The family managed to live in a sense of happy [in a strange sense] family ties. They lived the good life, peaceful and uneventful for a few years.
At nine years old Calypso broke her arm for the first time in her life, it was during a Capoeira class. And it tormented her that for several months she was unable to play music or do much of anything. She discovered her distaste for hospitals and doctors at that point. Her brother was fourteen at that point, and beginning to get into things that he probably shouldn't have stuck his nose in to. Several years went by for the family pretty uneventfully.
But when Calypso was thirteen years old, her step mother was killed by vampires [according to her father] causing her father to spiral back into the darkness he'd finally managed to crawl out of. Her brother and herself were in shock. They both developed a hatred of vampires, a true deep seeded hatred of the vampires. Her brother disappeared several months after his eighteenth birthday and she'd no word from him since. But it was then she began to learn how much her brother had done for her as children when her father had gone through this event the first time around.
He began to drink and smoke and go through episodes of druken rage frequently. He hit her several times, before she began to use her training to defend herself and fight back. She was fourteen when he burned her three times with a cigarrette. She began to spend more time out of the house and more time learning new skills and playing her violin. When she was seventeen, he gave her the scar on her inner right thigh when he attacked her with a knife, in retribution she shape shifted and attacked him as a wolf and bite him. Both marks scarred. At eighteen she picked up a gun for the first time, and found she had a knack for using them. When her father attacked her again, viciously and as if he was trying to kill her. And in responce she picked up the gun she'd been training with and shot her father then ran away.
As it turned out she'd killed her father, accidently of course, but for the first time in her life she felt free. And from then on she lived on her own, making a living with the intel she gathered and the music she played.

From Another Sad Song[/size]
Faethe just continued to beam brightly as he spoke, poking fun at himself a bit. The reason he was blond. She'd never gotten that, why hair color had anything to do with how a person acted or even affected their lives. It was all so silly, "Don't sell yourself short because of something as silly as hair color. If that had anything to do with anything because I'm a red head I'd be hot tempered and angry at the world." She didn't bother to mention one half of that statement was actually true, she tended to be hot tempered and if a person offended her she would give them quite the tongue lashing. Soft laughter escaped her as he whispered conspiratorially with her dog, pretending to try and be unheard by here. Aedan woofed softly and licked the boys face, "I dunno, guys don't seem to protest when girls are all bossy, makes us think they might actually like it." She tapped her finger on her chin appearing thoughtful, besides Aedan adores me and doesn't mind, do you boy?" She ruffled the dogs fur as he huffed in amusement and wagged his tail eagerly.
She was surprised that he seemed rather unsure, or maybe it was simply surprise that she was willing to be so open, since a lot of the people around here seemed rather closed off to the world. Fae felt she had no reason to be closed off, after all she was here too, in a similar situation even if she hadn't any idea what was going on and how exactly it was she ended up here. "I walk, just like you do, after a while you kind of sense where things are. Besides Aedan lets me know if I'm about to walk into something or hurt myself. I have however walked into doors several times... and doors, and once a window. It freaked my doctors out like crazy they thought I might be suicidal and be trying to jump out the window until I pointed out to them I could not see and had thought it was a door. That's when they brought in Aedan, they thought he'd make things easier, and they were right." She smiled fondly at the memory, the doctors had flipped, and she'd been standing there completely confused until things had been explained to her, then she'd turned bright red and apologized like crazy too them. "And whenever we go somewhere new I just use a navigation system for the blind, it gives us step by step instructions on how to get places, makes things so much easier. And as for how I get dressed, I am extremely organized, everything goes in a specific spot and I'm told were it all is, that way I can find it in the future and know where to put it, plus I have braile tags on my clothing, to make things easier. And I had my sight up until my memory blacks out, then I have neither memory nor sight, apparently they are interconnected somehow." She shrugged casually, it really didn't bother her all that much, "I remember they sky and the water and the rolling hills of Killikee. But now my other sense have awakened in a way you couldn't begin to imagine, I can hear things and feel things in a brand new way, and it's so thrilling, I can like smell rain before it comes." That was something she really did enjoy, feeling things, actually feeling textures and things in a whole new way, smelling foods and scents she'd never noticed before and hearing noises with surprisingly sharp hearing. It was simply amazing and unexplainable.
"That nice, but to be honest I don't have too many questions, well, perhaps one or two. You come from Finland, ne? What is it like there?" If there was one thing she was curious about it was different places, and what they were like, experiences like that thrilled her.
