Nova Cross was born into an Elite family of Dhampir's, Although her father was a vampire he knew about the customs and rituals of the Dhampir world. Her mother was a fighter, one of the best Nova has ever seen. All her life her mother has been teaching her and showing her how to fight and defend herself and the most important thing to a Dhampir- protect those who cannot protect themselves. Nova and her mother's was of bonding was through play fighting when she was young. As Nova got older, her mothers training intensified, as if going to the academy to train and learn everything she needed to wasn't bad enough, Nova would have to practice everyday for an hour with her mother.

Nova knew from a very young age that she wasn’t normal like other kids, that she was a human. But that fact hardly fazed her. For being being in her family and being a Dhampir was the most normal thing. She did good and bad things, and she respected people the best she could, and what respect she would give out she got in return. She, however, never could make much friends and preferred to be on her own. Being born in an elite family, she really didn’t have to work and rather enjoyed spending time with her mother, training and watching her train. It was evident that this was what she wanted to do.

At long last, her 18th birthday had finally arrived. Nova has been dreaming of this day for as long as she can remember. It was almost like a graduation for her, to finally be a fighting Dhampir like her mother. Inside the Dhampir dojo was her family and a few Dhampir friends assembled to cheer her on. Although she was nervous, her excitement could not be contained. She walked up the stage and saw all the different weapons first hand. None of them really jumped out at her. Then like a gravitational pull she walked to where the artisan broadsword was and in her soul she knew that this was the one. As soon as she made contact with the handle it started glowing a maroon color so bright that she starstruck by it beauty. Just as quickly as the color came, it vanished and she was attacked with her mothers and fathers death gripping hug and proclamations of how happy and proud they were.

A couple days later after being able to celebrate and play with her new weapon on training dummies, her father came and asked her a serious question, "What are you going to do now Nova?" And she knew exactly what he meant. She could either go to the human world and live out a normal life with a normal job and only use her weapon to help protect those who couldn't on they own, or she could stay in this world and continue her training and basically become like her mother. With that she smiled at her father and told him her answer. "I think you know what my decision is, I'm staying and continuing my training."

And she knew it was the right decision for her, since her training never felt like a burden to her. A few months passed and some of their family friends began talking about a place called Evermore which housed many supernatural species including the Dhampirs. It was on her mother’s suggestion that Nova decided to head there and experience life outside her family and her dojo. Bidding goodbye to her parents was hard, but Nova was determined to make them proud and to make a good name for herself in the new city.
