Name: Victoria De Winter
Age: 19
Appearance: http://images6.fanpop.com/image/phot...5-1280-720.jpg
Backstory:
Victoria was the daughter of the highly wealthy Lord Alistair de Winter and Lady Katherine de Winter. 10 years prior, she lost her mother and father after a violent demonic attack while they were on their way home from a ball that was being held at a friend's estate. Luckily, Victoria knew where they were stopped and ran from the carriage. Her uncle Jasper's home was not too far away. Though wealthy, her uncle preferred a simple life. She alerted Jasper, who took immediate action. She found out that he was a monster slayer and knew the demon would be persistant to find her. He managed to track down and slay the demon. He ultimately, took Victoria in and had retired from monster slaying. However, she was interested in his line of work, so after a while he decided to train her. When she was 13, she skillfully slayed 2 vampires, 4 demons, a werewolf, a troll, and a few other random creatures. She became a very reputable slayer and was in very high demand for years. She went out on her own after the death of her uncle.

I took refuge from the raging storm in a tavern and inn in the village of Grimstadt. I had been travelling for days. I had to deal with a demon that was feeding on villagers in a village not too far away. I sent the head to the villlage leader who paid me rather well. I needed some rest as well as food and drink. It was like the others. It was full of activity. The men were drinking and making advances on the barmaids and prostitutes. Anything pretty much went. Moans and lewd chatter amongst the people could be heard. I was trying to keep to myself and did not want to be bothered. A man was asking the bartender about me. He was dressed rather shoddy looking and it was obvious he did have way too much to drink. The bartender knew me. I could hear him tell the man that I was not to be bothered considering my line of work. They wanted monsters kept out of their village. The man got rather bold and sat with me. However, I was trying to be polite for the moment. He smelled terrible and slurred his words telling me how beautiful I was. He tried to kiss me and I pulled a long dagger from the holster pressing it too him. He got the hint immediately and apologized profusely before going back to the bar. I sighed. I did not want to settle down, but if I did then it would not be with him.
Suddenly, the door flew open. A man dressed rather nicely stood at the doorway out of breath and shaking. All activity ceased and it went silent. The men in the tavern recognized him. "The king's advisor... What is he doing here?" a few men asked each other. The bartender asked how he could be of assistance.
"I need to speak with Victoria de Winter." he continued, "Evangeline said that she sensed her presence here at the pub. The king is dead and we are all in danger."
The bartender and the others pointed him my direction. I was the only one calm. It did no good to panic. I offered him a seat. "What seems to be the trouble?" I asked.
"The king... He is dead!" He stuttered, "The castle was attacked internally. His menagerie... I told him he was mad to want to keep supernatural beings as pets. He kept them in the dungeon. The prince..."
I ordered him a drink so that he could speak more clearly. I overheard the villagers begin to curse about the king. It was obvious that they were aware of his madness, but not to the extent. The advisor managed to calm down a bit.
"The king has been keeping a menagerie of supernatural beings in his castle including his own son, who the king purposely conceived with a demoness." He continued, "His son managed to escape. He took the sigil and freed all the beings from their cages. He murdered his father and they are taking over the kingdom. Right now they are all preparing. The guards are dead. The prince summoned an outside demonic army to take over the dead soldiers posts. The handmaidens have already been captured and are being brutally raped and enslaved by the Prince and his minions. His mother is at his side and has taken over as well. Dammit, I knew he shouldn't have messed with her. I warned him! There is a way in that they don't know about, but it goes into the dungeon which is like a maze. You should be able to go through and it will lead to the castle."
I shook my head angrily at the foolishness of the king. He was a goddamn fool to think that he could keep vampires, demons, werewolves, and other creatures locked up without any sort of reprecussion. I was going to be paid quite handsomely and of course accepted regardless of the money considering the lives of the villagers were at stake if the prince invaded with his army. The advisor saw how tired I was and recommended me go to Evangeline and that she could give me a potion that could give me days to where I would not feel so tired. He also gave me directions to get inside. It was going to take a few hours.

Milleon and Belstegia
(I am writing in third person for them)
Milleon and Belstegia could not believe the rapid turn of events. The queen had murdered King Elias during their anniversary dinner and had unleashed all the king's monsterous collection out into the castle. They had no idea until the queen revealed her true form that she was even a demon. Did the king know or was he hiding this from everyone?! If he knew, then he had not only damned himself, but his whole kingdom and if the creatures got out then anyone else in their path. The two women barely escaped. Belstegia was only able to use a temporary spell to close of the castle doors. They took refuge in a cottage nearby. It was temporary shelter. The two were understandably frightened. They barracaded the doors.
"Praise the goddess we got out of their safely!" Milleon sighed, "I knew about the monsters in the dungeon, but our queen!"
"She not our queen anymore and I think that we should leave after resting up." Belstegia said. They decided that the next morning that they would leave to get help. They knew the advisor had ran, but did not even know if he made it to get help. He had mentioned that he was going to the good witch and that she would know what to do. It was not going to be safe travelling at night. Before the two decided to go to bed, Belstegia began looking through her books to see if there was any sort of spell to make up for the lost sigil. Maybe a portal or something that could banish all the monsters. However, she could not find anything.
"Come on, let's get some rest." Milleon suggested. The cottage had one bed so the two laid together.They would be able to hear if something tried to get in since both of them were light sleepers.
