She lived a sheltered life, pampered by her parents. During her childhood, Meredith got a formal education in academics and etiquette, as well as ballet training. With 16 she was sent on a business school, after she had shown some interest in her father's work. However, in the evening hours she often escaped her 'golden cage' and used to roam New York's club and party scene, sometimes dancing into the morning hours. She had only few real friends, most of her aquaintances were shallow and lukewarm friendships. Boyfriends lasted only for a few weeks and partners sometimes only for a single night. Her life abruptly changed, when both her parents died in a car accident some years ago, leaving only their 19 years old daughter, who inherited the whole wealth of several million dollars. She used a good amount of the money to build up her own night club in New York, the Maze, right in the heart of Manhattan. The night became her life, sleeping during the day and staying up all night long. The exclusive club slowly became a hot spot for New York's club scene and Melody gained some appreciation for running the Maze. But another group also got interested in the club. The Toreador regarded it as a perfect place to hang out and decided to make the club owner one of their own kind to strengthen the bonds between them. However, the first attempt to seduce and embrace the young woman failed, she was not the easy prey they had imagined, strong-willed and courageous as much as she was beautiful. It only fueled their interest in her. Therefore an elder clan member was sent to embrace her. He was the most handsome guy Melody had ever met and she succumbed to his unnatural charm. The following passionate night changed her life completely. It was that night, when Meredith Dylan died. But it wasn't the end, rather a new beginning. The strong emotional moment of her Embrace did have a serious impact on her, however, as she lost every memory about the past. It wasn't hard to recover some simple facts, her name, her ownership of the Maze, who her parents were and that they died some years ago and that she is extremely rich. She doesn't remember any details of her past, though. She has retained some of her human body functions, which is a gift for her, as it allows Melody to better keep in touch with humanity and it also makes hunting a lot easier for her. The transformation also magnified some of her qualities, her keen eyes, her charming voice and her ability to focus her mind on the important, but some of her less beneficial characteristics also intensified, like the inability to keep her patience and her strong dislike for ugly animals, especially rats, which give her the creeps whenever she encounters them. Among the kindred she is being treated with respect, due to her heritage, altho she hasn't done much to earn this... yet!Ok, so this is what I have written up so far.What do you think about it? Is it ok this way?Any comments, ideas, hints, complaints, etc? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I guess it would make sense to better identify her sire, I hope there is someone suitable or can be, maybe a member of the Primogen or something similar?ByeThanee</blockquote>
