Early Childhood
Waspen is the bastard child of Illiana Blackwood and the childe of Lord Ezra Selvik.

Ezra seduced an already pregnant Illiana and, having fed too deeply, turned her to avoid killing her. Ezra virtually abandoned Illiana, but was forced to face this after being informed of her death and handed her six month old child, whom he had inadvertently turned into a half-vampire.

Ezra quietly sent Waspen to be raised by Wren Silvius, an ex-Council member and friend, who was sent a considerable amount of gold each month for his silence. Waspen grew up knowing little of her blood family. Though she knew he was not her father nor her sire, Wren refused to answer any questions regarding her parents.



Shortly after Waspen’s sixth birthday, she and Wren were brought before Lord Azrael Selvik, Ezra’s blood brother and head of the High Council. Waspen’s existence had recently become public knowledge and Azrael removed her from Wren’s care, placing himself as her new guardian. Waspen spent her remaining childhood and school holidays growing up with Azrael and his youngest sires.

 

School Years
When Waspen was eight she was enrolled at the Romanian Institute of Magical Learning. As a half-vampire, her abilities with a wand were merely acceptable and Waspen threw herself into succeeding at subjects where wand use was limited, becoming successful in Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, and Potions. During her time at school, Waspen did not socialize much with other students; as a half-vampire, Waspen became used to a certain level of disdain from her full-vampire classmates. The Institute also fostered an atmosphere of competition and solitary study which did not encourage friendliness with one’s peers. While at school, Waspen crossed paths with Kaspar, Ezra’s recent sire. Kaspar was a full vampire and to be Ezra’s heir as Waspen, his only other sire and a half-vampire, could not.

 As Waspen grew older she became disillusioned with the High Council and vampire culture in its entirety. Though Azrael treated her much the same as his own sires, it was not the same with many other members of the Council or other vampires in general.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">After she graduated from the Romanian Institute, Waspen traveled back to London to visit Wren. The two of them had corresponded frequently ever since they'd been separated and Wren still considered him a parental figure. After some time, Waspen left England, and spent the next fifteen years traveling to many different countries including the United States, Italy, Bulgaria, India, Albania, Iceland, and Greece, all the while searching for more half-vampires.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Waspen was determined to claim her place in both vampiric and mortal society. She returned to Romania disappointed however as the few half-vampires she did find seemed to mostly ignore the wizarding community at large.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> Working for the High Council

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Waspen spent the next couple of years moping about Azrael's home, unsure of what to do with herself. After her depression had begun to fray his patience, Azrael assigned Waspen to be assistant to one of the Council membors, Baseleous Crukor.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Though at first she was overlooked and mostly ignored, Waspen soon proved herself to be just as stubborn as defiant as her Crukor, forcing the older vampire to take her seriously.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Things seemed to be progressing for Waspen until Azrael proposed adding a new Councillor position who would advise on policies which would improve half-vampire’s place in their society. This measure was immediately shouted down and things became heated, and almost violent, between Waspen and a few of the Councillors.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Annoyed with the other Councillors refusal to accept Waspen, Azrael removed her from the assistant position and instead made her one of the liaisons between the Council and the British Ministry of Magic, much to the irritation of the High Council. <p class="MsoNoSpacing"> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"> Second Wizarding War <p class="MsoNoSpacing">When Pius Thicknesse began his term as Minister for Magic and began implementing anti-part-human policies, the High Council recalled all of their liaisons, bringing them home to Transylvania in an effort to avoid any harm coming to them. The High Council has always maintained a strict position of neutrality with any wizarding conflict that they were not directly involved with, including the recent war.

When the dust settled and the Ministry returned to everyday business, without their anti-part-human policies, the Council sent all of their liaisons back, including Waspen.<p class="MsoNoSpacing">
