Siliya was born a few hundred years ago in Europe. Her family is of money, so she was a well off child. She was always close to her father and the same was said for her younger sister to her mother. Siliya was never close to the female members of her family because she was so much more laid back than they were. Her mother (Angelica) and sister (Chloe) believed fully in arranged marriages. It was of the time and Siliya wanted none of it. When she was 18 and still unwed, she began a romance with a boy from a local farming district, when her father (Edward) found out, he decided it was time she was wed. The family, unknown to Siliya and Chloe, was very connected to a coven. It explains their wealth. Her father supplied the coven with materials needed to stay hidden in society as well as survive. The "young" leader of the coven, Marius, wanted Edward's eldest daughter--and so it happened. However, the plan fell through when Siliya decided she was going to be on her own until she was ready to settle down.
Marius and his coven attacked the family, leaving no one of the house alive. In her fear for her own life, she had forgotten about her own family, watching them all die. When discovered, she was given then choice and gave in. Marius created the Siliya everyone else came to know. She became bitter and cold but kept her views on most things. After about 150 years with Marius, Siliya learned something that shook her world. Her sister did not die that day, they had changed her as well. She found Marius was also catering to Chloe's needs and not in a way that made Siliya happy. There was a fight that lasted for years between them all. Siliya decided to leave the coven and strike out on her own. She left Earth and moved to Disparatus after this, and for a very long time, she kept out of the most obvious places just in case she was sought after.
Once she had adjusted to life on Disparatus, she began meeting people that we know now. First there was her "friendship" with Weapon. It was abusive at best. Once she had moved on from that, she met Oujou...but that ended horribly for him. Siliya used him and lost him. Then she had another go with Weapon, joining the Virad war. Here she experienced her first death since her undeath. Weapon pulled her out of hell that time. She met Kangetsu before the war but got to know him after the war. When she wasn't spending time with Weapon/Sailerius, she was messing around with Kangetsu. She eventually moved in with him. They were very close friends with benefits. Siliya kept her stance on freedom, however. Whenever she feels trapped or too closed in, she runs. She did the same in this situation, to Zatenrai Seijun Sr.; Siliya joined the mad man in a search for even more power. This worked against her, however. She hated following rules and she never really did any work for Zatenrai. However, every friend she had mad thus far wanted her dead. Kangetsu beat them all to it.
He used his attack that stripped Siliya of all sin. In doing so, he also took away her "unlife". Zatenrai brought Siliya back once again and this time, she was human. For a while, she wasn't sure what she believed any more. Her morals and humanity were torture to her. She recalled a lot of horrible things she had done and believed she had to pay for them. For a long time, she hid away from Zatenrai, unable to escape her contract. During this time, she stayed in Joribaus with Sailerius. Somehow during this time, he went missing and Weapon returned. Siliya, when attacked by Weapon, happened upon Zatenrai Seijun Jr. He saved her life and offered her shelter to hide from his father. (This part you know, so I can skip it all.)
Now, after everything is said and done, Siliya has no idea what she wants. She lost herself along the way and as much as she loves her family, she's not happy. Lately, she's been on a thrill seeking journey, doing anything she's never experienced and things she has experienced just for the fun of it.
Brief Human Family History
Siliya's human family name was not in fact "Katen". The name Katen is of the vampire clan with whom her family was connected. The clan became as much a safety net for the family as they were for the clan. The original family name is in fact from French origins in early Europe (Epic Earth, not old Earth).
Renard was a well known family. Edward was a religious man who became powerful within the church, however complications arose when his methods were questioned. Therefore, he left his position and began focusing on the laws of their home. Edward had gotten involved with the Katen clan and was falling in over his head.
Soon after he left his position, his wife, Angelica (Renard) found out his secret as well. Angelica was a wicked woman who strictly believed in the growth of wealth and power. It was a lesson she tried to teach her two young daughters day after day. Many tutors were kicked out for contradicting her belief. Angelica agreed with Edward's way of life and even encouraged him to take it farther. Edward, weak willed to his wife, did as advised and allowed his family name to just vanish. They became Katen and part of the clan themselves.
Due to this, when Marius took over the clan, he decided that the once Renard family belonged to him. So, his decision to have the daughters live on with him was carried out.
