Overall History: Young Alannah had the unfortunate luck of losing her mother as she was born to childbed fever, a common milady. Her father, the king, was heartbroken to finally lose his wife after giving him fourteen beautiful children, Alannah no exception. The clan-leader's gaggle of children all inherited his fiery red hair and fiery personality. Despite her nurses' attempts to curb her wildside, she slowly took more and more after her father, excelling in the masculine arts as her brother's had, and inheriting her father's love for the ocean. But she always knew she was different, even from a young age. She could get into people's heads, help heal the sick better than her sisters, and almost had an invisible shield up around her.

There was nothing Alannah loved more than the ocean: the possibilities, the freedom and would imagine sailing off with her father whenever he left on the expeditions. When she was twelve, she took her brother's clothes and stowed away on the ship, only to be discovered a day's journey away from home. Alannah's father had her flogged four times, and despite her young age, she refused to cry. She steeled her resolve and vowed to prove herself worthy of her father's crew. They put her to work, and she slowly proved herself a true pirate: quick, skilled with swords, and a remarkable thief. When the ship returned to their home county, her father told her that she was allowed to stay with him, on his ship.

Alannah, over the years, perfected her skills and moved up in the ranks, learning navigation and perfecting the quick raids the Irish pirates were known for and secretly using her magic as a guide, that when her father built himself a new ship, he made her the captain of the old galley, and left her a crew to command. She has been making quite a name for herself since that fateful day, the common people of Ireland calling her Freyja, after the Viking goddess of beauty and death, knowing that if they refused the fiery haired pirate, death would surely await them.

Her sire found her after her ship crashed during a ghost storm, plucking her from the sea and offering her strength beyond her imagination. Alannah was turned and stayed with him for near a millennium as his progeny and mate. They explored the world many times over, taking what they wanted and she loved every minute. Until recently, when Alannah wanted to see more of the world on her own, without him at her side. The captain would always be grateful for his gift but she had spent her entire life by his side, as his pet. Never quite as his equal.

Around the turn of the 20th century Alannah broke away from her sire and took her life as her own. She never settled down, enjoying a few years in a city and moving on, going about unnoticed and enjoying the luxuries that modern life offered. After WW2 she settled down in Paris, in an old flat Kol had purchased after Hausman tore away the old Paris and built up the beautiful boulevards and elysees. It was relatively quiet existence (as quiet as a vampire could be) before late one night midsummer a young woman threw herself into her lap. She was intrigued, to say the least, amused by her actions and thus began the relationship between Wynter Brechin and the older woman.

Alannah surprised her little maid last christmas by moving to Salem and turned the girl not long after and began living as a married couple, preparing for the potential of an eternity together.
