Katherine

## Katherine's Character

Katherine Jesamine Ivory is the adopted daughter of Reginald and Oracle. She's a secondary character in the NutSeed series and is the main character of *Ivory*. She's a white female half-blood vampire with short black hair, orange irises (due to half-vampirism). Most of her body was eventually replaced with cybernetics, as she sustained life threatening injuries. Despite being naturally strong and moderately muscular, she's quite thin. Unlike her mother, which she is actually related to, she is flat. And she's short, much to her own annoyance. Katherine is five feet and four inches tall.

Katherine usually wears a cool colored tee shirt and either jeans or jean shorts. She generally prefers her arms to be visible so that people know she's augmented.

Katherine, unlike her father, doesn't have very many weapons. Rather, she uses her augmentations and magic to fight. She has used many smaller swords before, but the first one she herself owned was an odd curved sword she got from Arenil. Otherwise, she uses lightning and fire magic for combat as well as a blade and laser repeater that come out of her metal arm.

Katherine is an easy going girl. She really dislikes trouble and loves her family. She'd rather chat with her wife, Pattricia, with a bottle in her hand and a warm fire in front of her. That, of course, doesn't mean that she won't fight for her family. Quite the contrary. Although she isn't too powerful, her father IS a multiverse travelling time lord.

Katherine was a half-blood vampire, which comes with all the perks and drawbacks of vampirism, plus no sunlight weakness. She also doesn't need blood to survive. Later, her body was almost entirely replaced with metal, as otherwise she would have not survived. She is not bothered very much by this.

## Post *Thoughts* Life

Katherine lived in Detroit with her wife, Patricia, and their adopted daughter Iveri. She was moved to the Pisci Colonies after new laws forced all augmented and cybernetically enhanced people to move there. She works as a police detective, and lives in the standard micro-apartment all cybernetically enhanced were forced into. She and her family do not fear the police persecution others do, as not only is Katherine a member of the force, but Reginald's daughter. No one knows this, however.

## Trivia

* Katherine's name is not actually very interesting. The only part of her name that is influenced by anything was her middle name, Jesamine, which was the name of the assassinated empress in the *Dishonored* video game franchise. The Author really enjoys these games, and decided to give Katherine the middle name Jesamine to represent that.
* Katherine was originally only supposed to be partly augmented, however the Author changed it to being her entire body when he realized it would have made for much better character development.
* Katherine is one of the few Ivory family members that the Time Gazer originally planned to kill. He elected not to after seeing what Reginald did to Mantahl Morrigorn, who did kill her.
* She is second to Reginald based on amount of canon temporary deaths, with three. And is also second to Reginald in amount of actual deaths, with one. She eventually recovered.
