Amara Fehndottir

basic history
Amara Fehndottir was the second born to Fehn and aina. she was announced heir of her clan when her brother died and her name signed into the champions bargain, so even after her mother produced male heirs, she was kept as heir. She is the original vampire of Amarous vampire and despite producing children with others, is known as loving Chase Orrsen for the better part of her whole life

personality
Amara is a cynical person and believes the very worst in all situations, even if she chooses not to share it. she thinks that her father is dead despite the fact he'd been late home by a day from a voyage. because she is so cynical, other than those close to her, she is aloof, not engaging in much small talk and avoiding social gatherings. during a party, she is happy enough to sit on the thrones, talk pleasantly to those she knows, but avoids the general public and left after she stopped having fun immediately.

to those she knows, she is compassionate, finding it hard to punish Chase. her compassion does make it easy to be friends with her after you get past the aloof and stoic nature.

notably, Amara is also very obsessive, holding onto thoughts and feels longer than she did, as example that she loved chase who had no feelings for her, for the majority of her life.

detailed history
Amara was born to Fehn and Aina, the king/cheif of the fehn clan, a viking clan originating in seden and immigrating to near Quintia clan territory, amaras only elder sibling was Andon, who was strong but prone to sickness.

when Orr of Quintia clan offered Amara's father a place in the champions bargain. after a day of consideration, he actually chose Amara as Fehn Clan's champion because he dint know if Andon would survive to 18 and her parents had a series of miscarriages, which suggested to Fehn Amara would be his last child.

Amara spent her childhood with Andon and learnt great compassion from watching her elders brother health fade in and out, and from the fact he showed no jealousy towards her title as heir instead of him.

when Amara was 4, she and Andon begun to attend meetings between the clans were she met the other clans children. Amara begun to meet up and play with these children once a month on the halfmoon gathering. she became close with the only other female heir, Isobel, and claimed her as her best friend. she also became close with Maddox and Leon, but her brother who played with them didnt like Maddox and rubbed off slightly on Amara.

however, Amara immediately got Close with Chase, and was devastated when his father announced he'd brothed his son to a witch. Chase and Amara hung out a lot as children with Andon because their territories were closest but she would never like when he bought his betrothed, Soleste around.

when Amara was 11, she had many more brothers, and was surprised her father kept her as heir. but Amara devoted herself to training with Andon and her other brothers, still nursing a crush on Chase, and getting closer with Isobel. Amara was also betrothed to a warriors son who she didn't mind but thought was a bit of a brute and tried to just be polite to. During her training, she was grew closer with her father and tried her best to please him as he was adamant to keep her a heir despite the fact he clearly favoured Andon.

Amara also helped her mother often with raising her younger brothers, and bonded with her mother, they were extremely close and made Amara maternal seeing her mother care for her brothers.

when Amara was 14, her brother went of on a raid to the coast and died from blood posing from a dirty sword. Amara was completely devastated and especially when people begun to say he hadn't gone to Valhalla because he died on the boat trip home and not on the battle field. it led Amara to distance herself from the Viking beliefs and gods, but out of duty and respect followed the rules and kept her hatred of the gods and customs to herself.

at aged 16, Amara developed a slightly cynical view, and when chases father announced he was going on the next raid, she immidetly thought he was going to die. she became obsessed with the idea and stopped eating. many thought around camp she was dying like her brother so her parents tried comforting her but couldn't tell what was wrong with her. Isobel at this pont had put two and two togtehr, figuring out that Amara had feelings for Chase and did a better job at calming amara, who suffered very quietly, and inly noticable becuase of her weight loss.

a fortnight passed and Amara saw the boats, and actually ran down from the shores to see if he was alive and well. she was relived to find out he had come home unharmed but was scolded heavily for breaking the border.

because he had been ok, Amara thought he would be ok the next time he was called out to a raid. horribly, at the halfmoon gathering, she found out he wasn't their, and his father explained that he had been stabbed and was very sick. this made Amaras obsessive thoughts worse and she thought he was going to die. thankfully, Amaras father had to journey into Orrs territory for business relating to the Champions bargain, even if she didnt know why, she jumped at the chance to stay in the terriorty and immiedtly went to Chases.

she was relieved but still deathly concerned for chase as he was bed bound, but he had assured her it was mostly boredom that bothered him, and the fact that his mother had been fussing over him like he was a child again. she said she was staying for two days and would join in the fussing which made him groan but he apricated the thought. during her stay, she was annoyed and suprised to see soleste once but not checking on chase. apprentky soleste had been under the impression he wasnt allowed visttors from chases mother, amara said she could visit but soleste did not appeare for the rest of the day, saying chase would be fine.

when amara asked astrid, Astrid had said something vague about not wanting to overcrowed him, even though astrid was desparete for chases brother to visit. conrad told amara that it was chases fault and he had been impulsive.

when Amara was 18, her father left on a raid and when he was a day late, she assumed he was dead. this concerned her because according to custom, her mother would have to die with him. Amara's mother had just given birth to her youngest brother Finn and Amara thought it cruel. when his 2 messengers came announcing Amaras father dead, Amara fought the gaurds and killed them, throwing them into the rapids, thinking if anyone found out they would think witches were to blame. but guilt ate Amara alive and Isobel as well as chase noticed her decline but couldn't understand what it could be about.

Amara attended isobels party with her betrothed, and they danced together, even when Amara was jealous to see Chase with Soleste. towards the end of the party, soleste used her magic to strangle all the heirs to the point of blacking out.

Amara woke up on an island chained down to rocks and thought she was going to die. when Soleste explained what was happening, Amara understood why her father had left her as heir, and even when she saw how bad it was, she understood why he did it.

Amara was turned and immiedtly realised her ability to glamour. so when she retruned home, it was only a few days until her fathers army showed up and she killed them too, keeping her mother safe. she used her ability to glamour her father into saying that the raid had failed and all the soldiers had died other than him, but that they had all asked their wife's to remain on earth to live without them. when she killed her fathers soldiers, she realised what the price of immortality was, and stashed the bodies away, planning to return to eat them so she didn't have to kill anyone else.

at the meeting, Amara noticed a different in her peers. all of them sluggish and slow, and hungry, except chase. soleste explained it was simply them adjusting and chase had gotten through it as well as Amara. Amara was too scared to ask him if he too had realised the price of immortality as chase was very closed off and often outspoken.
