Dorothy Evans

Dorothy is the mortal daughter of Alphonse, who was born in Las Vegas. In her youth she was a tall, dark-haired woman of average beauty, though her most noticeable trait was always her eyes. Dorothy has bright monochromatic eyes, one a resplendent verdant green, the other a deep blue with a sparkle of turquoise. Even in her old age, they are the first thing anyone notices about her. They were the first thing Alphonse and her mother noticed when she was born, too.

She was born before Alphonse was embraced, and he continued to provide for her and her mother long after he was turned. Alphonse was often away during Dorothy’s developmental years, but they still maintained a bright relationship throughout her early childhood. Their relationship was additionally strained by the fact that Alphonse and Dorothy’s mother were never married, making her feel as though they were not a true family… And she was right. Alphonse eventually abandoned Dorothy at the command of his sire, when she was an adolescent. Though he has kept an eye on her from afar, he has never again contacted or supported her in any direct way.

In her adulthood, Dorothy moved between several different waitressing jobs, eventually deciding to save up money and go back to school. She then went to college, scoring well, but not exceptionally. After finishing school with a degree in financial literacy, she became a high-school accounting teacher. While she never made much money, Dorothy was always quietly proud of her role in guiding the minds of the future. She maintained good relationships with several of her students over the years, and many of them became lifelong friends of hers. All throughout her life, her mother drifted in and out, never staying in one place long enough to have a relationship with Dorothy. She often thought of her father, but with no other explanation, assumed he had simply abandoned her out of a lack of care or love. As so many fathers had abandoned so many children.

In her older middle age, she began a romantic relationship with the principal of the school at which she worked. His name was Dennis, and he had a kind face, with kind eyes. After a couple years of happily seeing one another, they decided to marry. Dorothy never took Dennis’ last name, but he never seemed to mind. They seem to get along well, even remarkably well for a couple of their older age. Perhaps because they didn’t meet until later in life, they never had time to become the stereotypical “Old married couple.” Due to their advanced age, they never had the chance to have children together, but maintained an active social life.

In the modern day, Dorothy is nearly 90 years old. She still lives with her husband, Dennis, who is several years younger than her. He is still quite elderly, however. They also live with a hired nurse named Rosa, who takes care of them day-to-day. Between both of their social security payments, and the mysterious inheritance left from her father’s “Death” in the early 2000’s, they are easily able to afford to live. They are less social than they were in their younger days, mostly only socializing with the students that they became close with during their teaching days. Visits from these students are infrequent, but appreciated. Alphonse continues to watch his daughter from afar.
