PERSONALITY: <div align="justify">
Averill is very austere and reserved when in public settings. People tend to be very skeptical of her until they have actually had the chance to know her, and those who do know her seem to fear her, all with good reason. Her appearance and family gives her an intimidating confidence, and accompanied by her poised belief system, taught to her by her father, she can easily offend certain people. Well, anyone really. Her well formed speech and grammar doesn't make the process of becoming friends any any easier.
Averill would seem to be the quiet one when being observed but this simply isn't true. She is very opinionated with a harsh sense of humor to match. It is rather rare that she would let emotion dictate her actions, and though upset, she will remain calm in the public eye. In more professional situations she remains quiet and respectful to the one in charge, more likely making that easier because her husband is generally in charge and in her eyes what he says goes. No matter what that might be. Apart from that in light of conversatiion she makes people feel either one of two extremes. They either feel as though they are being harshly judged or as if they are not good enough. It is rarely anything positive.
While on the prowl for a good hunt, Averill can be a bit off so to speak. While in the presence of death she adopts a childlike mentality that allows her to forget the human element of life. She will skip about rooms, giggle, scream and chase after the family pet, should it prove one she likes. She has a magnetic quality to her that makes it near impossible to become her enemy unless she deems you as one first, either out of admiration for her, or fear.
No matter what the situation may be, when it is expected of her to do things quietly and well thought out she does them as such. Despite her former attributes she has the ability to completely contradict herself by being cold and resentful to people for the same things she herself could be considered guilty of. The difference between her and your regular crazy is that she knows when to draw the line. Arguing with her is a lose lose situation due to her ability to completely re-justify reason with her own means.
After everything she has been through in life, she has turned into quite the paranoid young lady. Even the slightest thing that goes wrong in her life may provoke her to tears, it's just something that has become common after so many things gone wrong.. She also can be one of the more angry and stubborn people you will ever meet, able and willing to twist any situation and any words into whatever it would take to make her argument seem the valid one. She is rather difficult to get along with, and is perhaps far too loving of a wife for any of this to make sense. You will need a great deal of patience to understand her.

HISTORY: <div align="justify">
Averill was raised with an iron fist, and corset, literally. The harsh tactics of raising a child in the Von Essen household was no secret. The man was a doctor and his family home held the screams of those he tormented. There was this one incident in particular where he placed Averill in an iron corset for three months to instill in her the correct way to sit up proper no matter what she was doing.. She was taught how to do house chores, sew and cook. Her leisure activities were picked out for her by her father, namely playing the piano and ‘forcing character into her’ by locking her in her room for a few days with nothing more than books.. There was no angering her father, and in return for her submission to the title of world’s best daughter, she received his amnesty. Until, that is, she tried to kill him herthireenth year of life, after which she was banned from the household for fifty years until a bloody reconciliation was met…
So, that’s it? Why yes, yes it is.. Oh wait, I forgot to mention just what it is that makes her so fearsome, right? After all you have the image of a saint by now.. Minus the father killing thing… So, this sweet shop she inherited. It’s a rather special kind of chocolate.. One you must request by name.. Inside it lies a specially created poison, odorless and lacking in taste to whomever is unfortunate enough to be given said. Averill stabbed her younger sister, Ava, to death with an envelope opener at the age of six because Ava had played with one of her dolls without asking first. During her years of home schooling a serial killer swept over the mortal world, leaving twisted versions of art and sick humor in the form of corpses in their wake. Alongside it would be placed a spade, simple enough.. Through careful examination of Audrey, one would realize her former family crest, the one she held while in school, was a spade..
To elaborate a little more on Averill’s history with her family it should be noted that even as a child she spent countless hours in her mother’s room. It didn’t matter what she was doing so long as she was near her. That never changed. She went from a mere three year old drawing pictures of cats on parchment at a table next to her desk, to spending nights on the couch across from her reading up on interests such as Egyptian and Greek mythology. She’s always gotten along well with Noe, her eldest brother, and he tends to be a bit overprotective of her in everything she does. Tristan always played more of a role model hero deal to her. He always made sure to keep her elder sister Elladora away from her and out of her affairs. Likewise he taught her a good deal of things, how to control her power for instance. Thus why is was so traumatizing the day that one demon set them ablaze, her father having not been in the house, and herself having been spared for an unknown reason. Some might say this was the cause of her apparent insanity. [No name demon for plot reasons]
