SHe prefers to have a few close friends as opposed to many acquaintances. The few people she holds dear to her are guarded and protected. Her friends are treated like family and they are fiercely loyal and dependable. She is a master of communication and can help you get what you need by helping you with persuasion and enthusiasm, and she gives good advice too. She has an excellent memory and combined with an inability to let things go, she can hold a grudge against someone who did her harm forever, in fact Kyla rarely, if ever, forgives and forgets. She will even go as far as get vengeance on the person. On the other hand, she will always remember a kind gesture forever and repay it. Any kind selfless gesture done towards her will gain trust and respect which is extremely important to her in any relationship, either romantic or not.
She has immense perseverance, even when others have given up, Kyla rages on. She can persuade and manipulate very well and can easily justify any move she makes and explain any action. With her strong intuition, sensitivity, powers of observation and intelligence, she will have great success in anything she undertakes. She can be very diplomatic in a group setting and can delegate people well, however Kyla will not take orders if she doesnt have to. She needs to give orders but with her eloquence and soft tongue, other people do not have a problem taking orders from her because she is never condescending and treats others with respect and equality. SHe is very intelligent, she has an excellent memory and a highly analytical mind. Kyla is very good at problem solving, this is what she does best. If she is confronted with a problem, she will pick apart the pieces and put it together in the proper order. She is a rational thinker and is good at settling other people's disputes and putting them on the right track for reconciliation. Kyla never gives up, she is so determined to reach her goal. The key to this success is her flexibility. She is able to re-survey a situation and take a different approach if necessary. This makes her very adaptable and versatile.
She is easy going and not one to pick a fight but should some poor souls attempt to provoke Kyla, the wrath will be known, for she has a temper underneath the calm surface. Cross her and her temper will flare, she will become extremely stubborn. If you ever break her trust, it will be nearly impossible to gain it back again. Kyla has the ability to react instantly to situations, and as a result, she has a very nervous temperament. She can be compared to a wound up spring as she attempts to absorb everything she can about her surroundings at once. She is very prone of living in denial. She will say she feels okay or everything is alright even when it's not. This is an easy way out, the one thing that Kyla does not like to analyze is her feelings, so pretending everything is okay is a good defense mechanism for not having to take a closer look at her feelings. She has an unpredictable and sometimes unstable temperament.
Underneath the strong, independent surface lies insecurity. This is due to the intense drive to succeed and that Kyla puts too much pressure on herself, thus resulting in self-doubt. She is not fond of change. In fact, if change is imminent, she gets very nervous and worried. She does not like anything new because anything new is unknown and Kyla fears the unknown. She needs order in her life and when she does not have order, she gets very anxious. She does not express her feelings openly and her inner self is very contained and secretive. Many people do not know how sensitive Kyla really is, she hides it well. As a result, she is often emotionally hurt when the wrong things are said, she takes things too personally sometimes. She avoids talking about her emotions and many people never really know how she feels. SHe hold past events close to her and often dwells on the past. She has to learn to let go and live in the present instead of spending her time being sick with nostalgia. She may dwell too much on the past and over complicate things and this may limit her ability to move forward and confuse herself. She is all about control. She needs to be in control at all times. To be out of control is very threatening, even dangerous to her psyche, when she controls, she feels safe. She has a fear of failure which she keeps hidden extremely well, should her confrontation not be successful, or her career fail, she will simply use her adaptive skill to quickly move on and leave the bad experience behind. Do not ever expect her to fess up or share her tale with anyone however because this shows signs of weakness.
Kyla is a self-driven woman who can fend for herself and is not clingy and needy. She requires freedom in relationships. She has a great need for love and passion but she will never let a man become the master, she considers her partner to be equal. She will be faithful but she expects the same in return. She will always encourage and give strength to her partner, always being there for you. She needs stability and security and will not tolerate a man who is not straight with her and leads her along with uncertainty in the future. She can easily become jealous. The reason for her is jealousy is that if she is going to open up to a man, when she rarely completely opens up to anyone, she does not want to risk her being deceived or hurt. Do not look at other women when you are with her, she has to be the only one in your eyes. The thought of competition with other women completely turns her off.
THE HISTORY
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
FATHER: Sorin Palamara
MOTHER: Marta Palamara
SIBLINGS: N/A
OTHER FAMILY: N/A
OTHER IMPORTANT PEOPLE: N/A
HISTORY:In 1612, Kyla was brought into the world being of upper class. It was an easy lifestyle to grow up in. She was an only child and the center of attention for her family. With the world at her fingertips, the young girl learned of many things from instruments to skills that would make her more desirable as a bride. As the only child and a female it was necessary for her to marry and bear children to carry on her bloodline.
It was only a couple of days after she turned eighteen that that dream was crushed. It was the season for carnival. There had been outbreaks of the plague but she had done well not to catch it. But carnival was an important affair. Surely she could not miss it. But this year she should have. There had been so many people there and she had no idea some of them would be carrying the plague disease. It wasn't until the next day that she learned she was infected. There was no cure and the only way to contain it was to be quarantined. She was taken from her home to somewhere new where they stuck you with other people just as sick or worse than you.
Days passed and her condition worsened. The place was grim with people dying every few minutes. It was pointless to make friends knowing you would die. So she kept to herself only speaking with the doctors and nurses who seemed almost sympathetic. One doctor in particular took a special interest in her. He would go out of his way to make her comfortable, making sure she had the best meal and bed to sleep on.
It was when she reached her last day as a human that she learned what he really was. He was a vampire. He revealed the fact to her in the privacy of a procedure room. He wanted to turn her so she wouldn't die. She maybe only had a day or so left with how the disease was behaving. Being afraid to die, the girl accepted. The transformation was painful, and the girl felt all of it despite being unconscious almost the whole time.
Three days later Kyla awoke amazed at her surroundings and with a burning in her throat. Her sire as he was took her on her first hunt. It was a hard concept to grasp at first but soon she caught on. The two left Italy to avoid someone recognizing Kyla. Their first stop was in France, then to Spain, England, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Greece, and then finally Romania. They would move every few months to a new town, then to a different country when they ran out of towns, trying to keep from being exposed as the monsters they were.
It was while in Romania that the two split ways in an unfortunate way. A hunter spotted them, immediately knowing what they were. The hunter watched the two for a couple of days, studying their patterns. Kyla spotted him one night and thought it was weird. That night the hunter sprung. He went for her sire first recognizing him as a bigger threat. Kyla went on the offensive but couldn't save the man who changed her. He was set afire and the smell and sounds coming from the man was unbearable. She fled, running as far and fast as she could. Once as far as she could get she collapsed, crying and confused. The man had been with her through so much and had made her the woman she was. Now she was alone.
Angry about the loss of her sire, Kyla returned to Romania and hunted down the man who killed her sire. SHe killed him, drawing his death out painfully. She wanted him to suffer. Wanted him to feel the pain she felt from the loss of her sire. She watched the man breath his last breath and then left his body in a hole to rot. She left Europe, saddened by her loss. She couldn't be a place where she shared so many memories. The girl left for America. It was 1860. SHe started in New York and migrated across the country trying to keep from being outed as a monster. Finally in 1890, she ended up in Dallas, making a home outside the city. It was becoming a strong metropolis, booming with trade and people. She felt safe here, it felt like home.
It wasn't until 1975 that she moved into the city limits. And even then it wasn't until early 2012 that she was made queen of the state. It was a shock that she was given such an honor, but it was one she accepted with humility.
