Between Life and Death RP

Seldanna looked at Lilith with a plain look of "sorry", since it seemed Lilith had gotten the memo. If she just didn't let her instinct control her, which she believed to be possible, then...Well, that was about as much as someone in that situation could do. "My name is Seldanna. I wish there was a better answer, but I'm afraid the only thing you can do is control it. But it's just instinct. You can train instinct out of you." She told Lilith. "Just...Don't develop a want for power. Because the more power you have, the more likely it will be that you will fall. And the more power you want, the more you lose yourself and the worse your instinct gets."
Name: Jastra[COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] Gender: Female[COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] Age: 29[COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] Species: Reaper[COLOR=333333] [/COLOR] History: Jastra had lived a successful life, and a rather normal one. She took a break from college to visit her family for a few days, because her mom had another child, and she was desperate to see her new brother and take a break from school.
Unfortunately, in the middle of the night during her visit with her parents, there was a loud crash that came from the kitchen and a robbery and murder took place that night. Her mother and father, who went to check on the noise without worry, were spotted by the hurrying and anxious robber and shot on sight. Jastra, peeking into the kitchen at the sound of gunshots and seeing a man and her dead parents, scrambled to scoop up her infant brother and ran out of the home without question, horribly shaken by the sight of her parents laying in a pool of blood.
Jastra went to the authorities, and the man was arrested, but she did not know what to do with her brother. They had no other family members they knew of, and she did not agree to putting him up for adoption. So, Jastra decided to keep him and raise him herself, which complicated things and made Jastra decide to not return to college so she could take care of her brother fully. She inherited the damaged home of her parents, and settled there for a few years.
She walked along the street one day, holding the hand of her brother who was now considered a toddler as she walked him back from school.
A reaper had been following her and eventually caught up to them without her noticing until she turned around due to just sensing that someone was right there and wanting to assure herself whether it was true or not.
When she saw him, he immediately took action and killed her on the spot, her brother running off to the side since he was scared by the reaper and the chaos.
In seconds Jastra was transformed into a reaper, and as she looked at her surroundings, she had a sickening realization; she couldn't even touch her brother, let alone take care of him. The reaper saw her look of desperation towards the young toddler and began to attempt to attack him, but Jastra pushed the reaper down before that was possible and then simply ushered her brother to quickly follow her back home before it could follow.
She wrote a note of why she was abandoning her brother, and called a nearby family she knew without telling them the situation over the phone so they would come. Jastra left before they came and hung out in the trees to make sure they left with her brother, and sure enough, they had found the note and taken it, leading the toddler out of the home, which wasn't a struggle since he knew them.
Jastra had encountered the reaper that had infected her multiple times, but she has always fled in pure anger and guilt because she had to abandon a child she had raised. Over the years, she has definitely killed people, specifically picking off the ones that have neglected or abused their loved ones in aching jealousy, because they hated the things she longed to have.
Jastra has been known as quite the figure of 'legend', as she silently picks off people who have done slights of wrong and mangles their bodies, leaving them barely recognizable and always leaving a note nearby of why they were killed.
She has a morbid sense of justice. But, as she knows her parents rot in graves and her brother who she raised like a son is being raised by a different family due to her giving him away with barely any will, and her entire life she was working hard to succeed in was ripped away from her, she hated people who abused the luxuries she never got to keep.
Personality: Jastra is a problem solver but under certain stressful situations she can crumble. She struggles with being moody and too paranoid, but still tries her best to just be smart and kind. In her current state, though, she is almost in a constant state of jealousy, and at times, she really does enjoy that moment when she kills someone. She is definitely one to be ashamed of her own self.

Pryrus got done with his walk. The reason he really wanted to take this stroll is because everything has been so hetic and he can hardly stand to see his darling Claire laying in bed, in pain. He walked into the hut. Then he walked into his bedroom to check on Claire.~
Claire lay in bed, lying patiently in pain for him to return. She was glad he could enjoy a walk, it probably eased his nerves and mind.
