Background:
Xusha was born into one of Germania's finest prestige families; the von Fuerst. Her family was such a success that eventually they would become the figurehead of the entire country. She was spoiled in her early years, which lasted until she was about seven, when her mother was killed tragically. Xusha, more than anyone in her family, was hurt by her passing. Everyone had assumed that she had simply taken a bad fall, but Xusha was the only one that knew the truth. Her father had killed her because she had become pregnant, and the child a female. Her father always looked down upon Xusha, for the very same reason. He wanted a strong family full of males that could carry on his legacy. Years had passed and Xusha had noticed that the other children were growing taller and stronger than she was. She was abused for being thirteen, but having the body of a toddler. It did not take long for the fact to sink in: Xusha and her brothers were different. Not long after discovering that she was unique, Xusha's father forever vanished in a sea of mystery. With her father vanishing, Xusha noticed a change in her brothers. They had become less friendly and became hostile towards her, as well as one another. One by one, they each took their leave, trying to learn what they were and how they should live their lives. Being the only child free of such inner corruption and self hatred, Xusha began to watch her family from the shadows, setting her own home ablaze, to prevent the ones she loved wasting their time searching for her. Xusha watched her family prosper for many years. What it was that shocked her was not their growth, but their aging. Xusha was soon forty years of age, but still retained the form of a small child. She had seen the older members of the family die, and questioned what exactly it was that was making them lose their lives. Forty years had soon doubled to eighty, and all traces of what she once knew were gone. The style of the homes had changed substantially, but the worst part is that all of her family was replaced by new people. The very people she had known and watched for years had been replaced completely by their offspring. This was a new concept for Xusha, and it took her a long time to realize why exactly people had to die.
Xusha soon came in contact with a little girl of her family by a complete accident, scaring her into bringing her mother to investigate. She took Xusha in, and after telling this woman a false story about her family being killed, she decided to raise Xusha as her own. With mental encouragement by this woman and child that had cared for her, Xusha aged mentally, which caused her body to change in the ways she had often dreamed of. She soon trusted her new sister enough to tell her about herself, and everything she had seen, and went through. Her sister thought this was a joke, but when her mother heard the story, she took no amusement in it, and called it foolishness until Xusha, headstrong, named off many of this woman's own deceased relatives. The entire family soon knew of this devil amongst them, and attempted four times to kill Xusha, all of which resulted in failure. Soon after, Xusha took to hiding, feeling betrayed by the ones she had grown to love. Xusha did everything she could to survive in these hard times, working many different jobs for many years. Eventually, she came upon a poster advertising a military organization known as the S.S under who was said to have been the second coming of Jesus himself. This man was known to the world as Adolf Hitler. Xusha did not hesitate to join, though many of the things that she had learned were of dark origin and confused her. Why would a holy man make her do such terrible things to innocent people? This question lingered upon her until Xusha realized the truth. This man was a fraud and an insane dictator that had corrupted the society from within. As much as Xusha wanted to resign, she didn't. She was learning so much about many of her childhood questions. She had learned much about death, life, and pain from her experiments. Xusha had always hoped that what she was doing would lead to future improvements to life itself. This is when Xusha had an idea that she considered the answer. What if humans as she knew them were outdated? This is when Xusha began to try to create what she thought would be the perfect being that would replace humans all together. This proved to be a very difficult task, and when the S.S learned of her side project, she was reassigned to a group called the Dunklen Sonne, which believed that there was a much better place beyond the world itself. Along with their help, Xusha created what was considered an angel. This disturbing skeletal creature, with a life of its own, became known as Ableben***. Ableben was a great success, and even opened the portal to the Dunklen Sonne realm itself. The world, however, was not what anyone could comprehend, or the desired safe haven. The Dunklen Sonne realm was considered to be worse than the depths of hell itself. A vibrant, colorful world, but a dangerous, horrid one, all the same. The native creatures had eaten half of the scientists that had spent so long to create the portal to the very world. Ableben himself had turned against his creators, and attempted to kill them all. Only by usage of the crystals that grew from the ground, was Xusha able to escape, and seemingly imprison Ableben in his own world, along with all of the people she had devoted countless hours with to uncover forever. After this, Xusha went on to fight in the front lines, meeting a ghost named Ludwig that disrespected her and almost defeated her in combat. Xusha was only able to win after discovering her own demonic ability.
After the fall of the Reich, Xusha became a doctor, using the corpses as her test subjects in secret. She had become obsessed in succeeding, whereas the Dunklen Sonne organization had not. Seemingly a waste of her time, Xusha left the medical field and met a man by the name of Damion Hanz. She fell in love, and before she knew it, she'd become pregnant. Soon after a trip to the hospital, she also learned that she was in fact dying. Along her travels, she met a strange figure known only as Aion, that took her in. Aion took care of Xusha in what were her final days, doing anything that she asked. Filled with a hatred, Xusha requested that he massacre the family that had cast her out. While Aion was fulfilling her wish, Xusha had passed away. Upon his return, Aion created a false soul that would bring Xusha back from the beyond, but only for a short time. He had informed her that she would live for at most ten years with her new soul, as it would eventually disintegrative into nothing. Xusha accepted this, and parted ways. Shortly after, Xusha ran into her brother Astaroth, who nearly killed her. Xusha was eventually able to outrun him, but it had cost her much. She could feel the artificial soul struggling, and she knew that she would soon be dead, this time for good. After making a minor recovery, Xusha traveled a far distance, trying to assure she never have to deal with Astaroth again. Eventually she had run into her other brother, Armand. Xusha was forced to fight, and held up very considerably. When she eventually sliced into Armand's neck, she only then remembered that he, like her, was far from human. Armand commended her progress, and promised to someday fight her again, without holding back. Having met both of her brothers and seeing how much more that they had grown in comparison to her, Xusha fell into a depression, and began to train herself.
Within five years, Xusha had become a force to reckon with, though she knew her time was short. Both of her brothers desired to kill her, but she wasn't willing to allow either of them the privilege. Soon after she reemerged, she had met a figure that the very aura of Death itself. Having once been killed herself, Xusha was naturally interested in this person. This person was Kyo, of the Zetsumei Clan. The name didn't intimidate Xusha at all, especially since she already had pinned the figure with death. Kyo was rather intimidated of Xusha, or at least it had seemed that way in her own mind. Xusha knew she had to challenge this person to combat. What followed was the most graceful display of combat Xusha had ever seen in her life. Just as the battle reached a climax, Xusha was offered a position among the Zetsumei, and informed that she would be given a new life. Xusha jumped on the perfect opportunity to both revoke her accursed name, as well as an opportunity to continue her own life. Kyo did not trust Xusha at first, and with good reason. Xusha was excited and ready to kill her brother's for the pain that they had caused her, as well as Kyo herself. These feelings soon faded, and something odd began to happen to Xusha. For the first time in what felt like forever, she was falling in love, only this time it was with Kyo. The emotions filled Xusha's heart, and from then on she decided to protect Kyo at all costs. Xusha had experienced many remarkable things while in the Zetsumei, including the child prodigy Kuro Zetsumei, the angel Sorano Chimaru, the mechanic marionette Ashlotte Zetsumei that had become a human, the dragon Buru, as well as Kyo's own alternative personality Toppyoushimonai. She often stayed in her own private chambers, in which not even Rin Rei, the living ghost would venture into. Xusha eventually became known by many as a loyal Zetsumei, having earned the right to recruit Zetsumei herself. Xusha has only recruited three Zetsumei to date, all on a quest to recover one of the Zetsumei's most dangerousa artifacts, the Zetsumei Ring. Two of the three, in effort to destroy the dark wizard that had stolen the ring, wore it to gain what was supposed to be unimaginable power. Both were granted such, but only with the exploitation of their most major of weaknesses. They were both defeated rather easily as such. The third took her own life, unable to withstand seeing her brothers slaughtered before her eyes. The wizard proved too much for even Xusha, who also resorted to using the ring, knowing it would come at a terrible cost. The expense for the power itself was her eternal youth, which also turned her scythe to ash. Xusha had become an immobile old hag, unable to defend herself. Fortunately for her, all of her power exploded from her body, which was unable to hold it. The wizard was destroyed by the incredible display. Xusha was only saved by Kyo herself, who managed to stash the ring where it belonged, as well as restore Xusha to her former self. From then on, Xusha has served the Zetsumei with unquestionable loyalty.
Xusha, though proud to be in the Zetsumei, had one tiny issue. Her body was unable to bare a child. Xusha devoted much of her time to trying to fix this issue. For some time, Rin became very much worried, and began to leave a plate of food outside of her door daily. Rin did not like whatever Xusha was up to, because it was both a horrid stench, and during the rare occasion Xusha would emerge to get her food, she was covered in a red liquid assumed to be blood. This process continued for nearly a year, until Xusha emerged from her chambers one day, but she was not alone... Xusha had created her own daughter, Kyouna von Zetsumei... (More information on Kyouna will be posted in her NPC design).
*A family name that would literally translate as "Prince".
**Though ritual born, Xusha has proven exceptional enough to be considered one of the Death Princesses, and was once considered for being the heir of the Zetsumei Clan itself.
***Literally translating to "Demise", Ableben became the pride of the Nazi occult and years of labor, but soon became their downfall.
