Personality:
Often described as cold or stand-offish, Genevieve isn't the most social of the courtiers. She has her few friends and her sisters, and that's enough for her. Jenny is also terribly promiscuous, and her nightly escapades are common gossip amongst the court. Not that she really cares. The more attention she gets, the better. She thrives on it, and is quite put out when she's not the most talked about woman in court.
In contrast to this, she has a terribly romantic soul that she never lets anyone see. Due to her roots, Genevieve takes particular pleasure in studying the Arthurian legends, and reads anything she can get her hands on relating to them. Her favorite genres of music are Celtic and New Age, the soothing melodies and soft rhythms calming her seemingly constant anger. She enjoys writing poetry, though she never presents her work ot anyone. She keeps all her most personal belongings under lock and key, not even her family able to come near them.

At The Back Of The Mind.

History: Being the second of the Volette children, Genevieve was spoiled from an early age. Many would remark that she was born with a silver sthingy in her mouth, and she would be quick to reply that it was true. She never knew want, and there wasn't a thing she looked at that wasn't soon hers. Her mother was especially fond of her, finding her the prettiest of all her girls. Jenny was thrilled, learning quickly that the senter of attention was the place to be. And, luckily for her, it wasn't often that she wasn't surrounded by a slew of women (and men), being cooed at and fawned over.
By the time she was old enough to be considered for marriage, she seemed to have matured at a much faster rate than her sisters, looking closer to sixteen as opposed to her twelve years of age. Her suitors noticed this as well, and were appreciative. It seemed a line had formed for her while she was growing, and Jenny was nothing less than thrilled by the prospect of men fighting for and over her. When it was attention you sought, what better than being the source of a conflict between scores of handsome men?
Her father wasn't as pleased, however, and asked his wife to cut down on the social outings and receiving of suitors. She complied, but that didn't mean the men didn't look. And it certainly didn't mean that Jenny stopped flirting. In fact, it seemed that the older she got, the wilder she got. By the time she was sixteen, she appeared at least twenty years old, and was secretly engaged to a noble she met regurlarly in London. Things couldn't get better for her. Unfortunately, this was also when everything came crashing down around her.
For it was on the eve of her twentieth birthday that she was announced engaged, the lucky man staying in their home that night. It was also that night that said fiance wreaked havoc throughout the house, one of the servants vanishing into the night. Genevieve, hearing the racket, took a sword down from the wall and crept to the kitchens, wanting to see what was going on. She wasn't prepared to be face to face with a vampire, however. She fought as hard as she could, but to no avail, being taken down and bitten by the creature.
Not wanting to leave, but not wanting to wish any pain on her family, Jenny fled as well, vanishing into the forest to live out her transformation. It was painful, and took far too long for her liking. After nearly a week wandering in pain, it was finally over, and she was free to enter society. Well, except for the tiny problem of needing human blood to survive. Luckily, it didn't take long for her to figure out how to handle that problem. Her already unnatural good looks were only intensified with her transformation, and she used them to her advantage, luring men to her and making them her dinner.
She lived this way for over half a millenia when she was discovered by her brother, Jonathan. It seemed he was a vampire now as well, and offered to take her in. He'd already found their youngest sister, Celeste, and was in the process of tracking down Oceane. Jenny accepted without question, overjoyed to be reunited with her family at last. It wasn't long before they found Oceane in Dark City, reuniting and forming an immortal family.
