Michelle Lynne Corvin was born May 24th, 1986 to David and Angela Corvin of Los Angeles, California. Her father was a young, enterprising politician on his way up, her mother, a hell-bent for leather law student studying criminal law. Her father spent most of his time on the road campaigning or working out of state while her mother spent time protesting one cause after another, leaving no time for Michelle with either of her parents. Her nanny raised her from a babe until she was a young child of eight seasons when her parents filed for divorce. Her mother had finally discovered the many, many girlfriends her father kept in various towns across the country. Somehow her father won sole custoday of Michelle, much to her and her mother's dismay. Her father further forbid her from ever seeing her mother again, even going so far as to get restraining orders against her mother. Michelle grew up a cynical but well mannered child, tutored in the arts by her nanny and instructed in various other lessons by the many teachers her father sent to her. His way of showing he still loved his daughter, even if from afar. She was finally enrolled into a public school as a young teenager where she excelled in her classes and quickly became the talk of the teacher's lounge, it looked like there was no end to how far she could go. She began to follow in her mother's footsteps very quickly, taking to the books to learn all she could about the current laws that applied to civil rights and how they could be made better. It began to take a strain on her emotional health as she spent sleepless nights writing letter after letter and sending them to various figureheads in the government to try and learn how they got where they were and asking their advice on what they thought would be a good way for her to start. Her father finally stepped in by pulling a few strings on his end to get her a personal meeting with a member of the cabinet for which finally gave her the answers she was looking for.
Satisfied by her apparent success, she relaxed to focus more on her private
life. She had few friends but those she had were very close. They were
virtually a pack in and of themselves in their behavior towards each other
and everyone else. This kinship lasted all throughout high school until
their graduation when they would all go their seperate ways, off to various
colleges across the country. They parted as family and continue to keep
in touch with each other via the occasional phone call or email but only
time will tell if their friendship can last over such a great distance.
Earlier in Michelle's life, when she was maybe twelve years old, her father
had taken her on a vacation to the Great Lakes where he told her a most
unual story of her true lineage and the of the new
She quickly shook herself of any fears, flooded with wonder and belief of what her eyes had shown her. She sat in the great creatures lap for hours listening to him speak while she twined her fingers thru the thick tufts of hair. He did eventually that day go back to his human form, telling her it was easier for him to speak to her this way as his other form, one of but many, was often harder to understand as it wasn't really meant for speaking. They spoke of a great many things that first week, the second week her father left them, returning to go back to his work and his many girlfriends, leaving them to tend to each other. Over the course of the summer they stayed there in that place living in a medium sized cabin which her father had purchased while his wife and he were still together for their own vacations. At the summer's end, her father returned for her. She hadn't wished to go, having fallen for the kind stranger but her father insisted. He thanked the stranger, leaving him there at the cabin as he took his daughter back to her life before. She never forgot that summer nor the man she thought she'd love for the rest of her life.
Michelle graduated from high school in 2003 at the top of her class. She
was seventeen when she enrolled in the California State University where
she chose majors in Political Science and secondary classes in Arts and
Philosophy. Her extracurricular activities include being in the colleges
ROTC program where she studied military theories and received training
in her leadership skills. She was also part of the girl's tennis
team where she partnered with her roommate where together they managed
to win more than they lost. All through the year she attended class regularly
while spending most of her free time researching everything she could about
the Garou, whom she had come to call "the people." She seemed almost obsessed
with finding out more about them, despite the great deal she'd already
learned from the stranger she'd spent the entire summer with as a young
girl. Despite her best efforts, however, she turned up nothing more than
what she already knew. Most of what she did find were merely stories and
rumors laiden with half-truths and falsehoods meant to mislead the curious.
With a heavy heart, she gave up. It was towards the middle of her summer
break that her father came to her, asking her to join him in New York City
to help him in his new campaign to run for office there. Reluctantly, after
much begging on her father's behalf, she agreed to go, but just for the
remainder of the summer, she insisted. She moved a few of her belongings
to the small studio apartment she was able to sublet in order to try and
make herself feel more at home despite the feelings of homesickness that
still crept into her heart from time to time. She worked
One day, Michelle discovered a document amongst her father's paperwork
laying out on his desk while she was searching for a pen that spoke of
unsafe toys being the reported cause of several injuries of young children.
The report stated that the materials
She contacted one friend after another trying to find someone who would
help her but none of them wanted to get involved because it would have
meant going up against her father. She tried to find out everything she
could about the toy company named in the document she'd discovered, one
Billy Bink's Toystore. She'd managed to backtrack its holdings to a larger
company called Teradyne Industries who amongst other things, was responsible
for many of the electronic components often found in the toys.
The encounter with the men in black left her cold and frightened, too scared to go home for her father must've surely sent the men after her to try and scare her into keeping her silence. She used what little money she had to get a room at a local motel, she used a fake name just in case. It was then that she decided for the first time in several years to try and contact her mother. She finally reached her mother sometime early the next morning after dozens of calls to various law firms as she tried to find the one her mother worked her. Her mother was concerned but somehow not at all surprised at the things Michelle told her. She insisted that Michelle not go back to the house for any reason and that she would wire her some money so she could buy a bus ticket out of state where she would hopefulyl be safe from her father. They talked for a little while longer about what she must do and then a little just to catch up, her mother finally insisting that no matter what she musn't try and see her for that would surely be the first place her father would look for her. Michelle sadly agreed and told her mother how much she missed her before she hung up the phone and then went off to pick up the money her mother had wired her.
Michelle disobeyed her mother by going back home for there were a few personal
things she desperately wanted and she thought it would be safe for her
father was to be in an important meeting that day and would not be home
until late. When she
She ran straight to the bus station where she was about to buy a ticket
back to Los Angeles when the idea struck her that that would be exactly
what her father would expect her to do, to run home where he would surely
have more men waiting for him. She sat in the station for hours as she
tried to think of where to go, eventually deciding to stay right there
in the same city as him. He wouldn't expect her to stay put so he most
likely wouldn't have his men out scouring the city looking for her. She
called her mother again and asked her if she could help her get a new ID,
which her mother had already thought of and had begun to make the arrangements.
Together they laid out a plan to get her resituated in a small apartment
near the middle income area of town where it'd be safer and it was still
a short bus trip away from the college where she could still attend classes
although it'd be up to her why she looked exactly like one of the students
who just stopped showing up. She figured she'd think of something as she
hung up the phone and went off to get a safety deposit box as her mother
instructed her to do. Soon after her mother sent to the deposit box a handful
of things she thought she might need, Michelle also kept the copies of
the documents she copied from her father in the deposit box hopeing they'd
be safer there than with her just in case she ran into any more men in
black. She settled into the small apartment her mother had arranged for
her, picking out a few things to furnish it and then using the stuff from
the suitcase to try
~History Update~
Michelle has met up with a couple of Garou in her search to find out more
about where she comes from but so far neither of them turned out to be
exactly Prince Charming. One gave her the willys and the other had his
way with her, marring her first time with anyone before leaving her out
in the middle of nowhere to walk home half nude. Her feelings towards the
Garou are now a little strained tho she still has hopes that she'll find
someone as noble as the one she first met that summer long ago. She's also
having issues over her first time with a man because although she didn't
say no, partly out of fear that he might hurt her and that he might not
take her to the other Garou like he promised he was going to in the first
place. It tore her up inside when he was done when he thru her out of his
car and left her there standing on a cold deserted dirt road in the middle
of nowhere. She walked towards the lights of the city half naked and thinking
it was a miracle that she made him home let alone without anyone else seeing
her. She's been having vivid nitemares of that night, carnal moments of
violence and blood even though he wasn't overly rough with her but he wasn't
exactly a gentle and loving companion either. She's thought of going to
a therapist but doesn't know if she should for fear that he might try and
have her commited if she were to say anything about werewolves. For now,
she sleeps very little and misses the occasional class as she falls asleep
on her books. She knows she has to do something soon, she just doesn't
know what.
~History Update~
Recently hard times have befallen Michelle as she discovered, much to her
dismay, that she was pregnant. Things only got worse after a girl at school
remarked about how she must be cheap so Michelle decked her and thus was
expelled. And seeing how she was no longer taking any classes, her tuition
was suspended and without any money to pay her rent she was evicted from
her apartment. She lost most of her belongings as the rat-fink landlord
kept her stuff in lieu of her owed rent and when she tried to go
~History Update~ While exploring the woods and looking for the cockbite that knocked her up she ran into a couple, Joe Jr. and Racheal Smith, that offered to take her in for at least until she could have the baby. She went with them to a diner and talked well into the night and finally decided she'd stay keep the baby and stay with them in the meantime until she could figure something else out. For now she's intending on giving the baby up to a garou or kinfolk couple but thoughts of perhaps keeping the baby haunt her when she's alone.. she honestly doesn't know what she's going to do.
