When Katrine came through the black hole, from the future, she was a child. Though she was a child with a mission. Her sister had vanished, and Mother developed memories of Chloe back in her youth so Katrine, stubborn and determined to save her big sister achieved what others on Dathomir claimed was impossible - traveled through time. She was cute as a button, seemingly always happy and cheerful, heavily medicated to keep the darkness and madness at bay and could often lose concentration of what she was doing. All the way, she met different people who had been her Masters and Mentors, all somehow helping her grow into the woman she would become. Though none of them had as much influence as her imaginary friend, Avarisa, who in truth was the true progenitor of the Hawk bloodline, a woman of purple hair and eyes, completely devoted to darkness. She had guided and molded Katrine through the ages, building her into an image Katrine couldn't begin to imagine.
Though, if there was one thing that could never be broken in Katrine was her devotion and love for her family. Kat would walk through all circles of hell and back for Mommy, Daddy, Chloe, and Seren. Though as Mommy vanished from her life, gone, Avarisa took a chance and latched onto her as never before, pulling her into Unknown Regions, into the ancient planet from where their family began, where she was strongest. There, Katrine's ascend to darkness truly began, all with the ultimate sinister goal she still didn't understand. Those two years had changed the child into a servant and student. Katrine completely fell beyond the will and broke, surpassing her former fears and illnesses because her Master had pushed her across the breaking point over and over again.
Ultimately, though, through a shred of light and love, the spell over her broke and Katrine defeated the progenitor, sending her back into the beyond where she belonged. And in a final act of freedom, Katrine shattered Avarisa's bones and destroyed any chance of her returning. At that moment, Katrine, wiser than she had ever been, calmer and completely unaffected by what had once bothered her, broke free of her own chains of disease and weakness. Leaving the planet, she was no longer a child, but a young woman, a Knight. Her cheerful nature isn't too far gone, nor is her personality disorders, but she is far stronger now than she had ever been.
Following her departure from Orcus, things began to progress quickly. First, it was the spirits of Mandragora on Ryloth whose call she had finally heard clear enough as the grimoire was recovered. As she was marked by Jart, she began to hear them and listen to them guiding her all up to the second large event in her life - her ascension to Nightmother, when she had been claimed by all three spirits. She had also been summoned to the spirit realm where she met Shery deWinter, who entrusted her granddaughter to Katrine. Scherezade deWinter, Pebble, became her Ward that same day and soon enough Katrine came to love her as her little sister. All these events made her lose some of her childish behavior throughout the months passed with all the responsibilities.
However, a lot had changed on Stewjon as a drunk Kat sensed another Lupine and ended up meeting Gerwald Lechner, the first of her kind she met that wasn't a Van-Derveld. She was captivated by the incredibly tall man and drawn to him in ways she didn't fully grasp at the moment. He confused her at first before she comprehended better just what it was that she felt for him, realizing she knew all about it, just never experienced it. She fell in love, to both the wolf and the man, by her own wolf and with her heart. Despite everything she knew and thought about herself, her heart began to belong to him even before she claimed him. Though she couldn't begin to see just how much it would destroy her relationship with Pebble. It happened after Kamon Vondiranach nearly killed her, with her spending a week in a coma as she recovered from her wounds, trapped inside the darkness she had once been in, seeing horrible scenarios, including one where Katrine had sold her to Avarisa to be free of her, only to leave the darkness to try and kill her, all before she found out about her and Gerwald. He still chose Katrine and her sister demanded she is released. From being her sister and from being in the Mandragora. Katrine had agreed, with a heavy weight on her heart.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES:
(
+)
Blue Blood. Katrine descents from nobles and leaders. Inside the Van-Derveld bloodline, there is a feudal claim on the moon
Figaro Favoura VII to which Katrine is the proclaimed heir by the decree of her Father, the Lord. At the same time, Kat descents from the Hawk bloodline which has led the Singing Mountain Clan of Dathomir for generations.
(
+)
Badass Family. Descendant of the Hawk family and daughter of Ket Van-Derveld, Kat has quite a bit of potential with the Force within her though much of it is still untapped into.
(
+)
Little Miss Badass /
Badass Adorable. Adorable in her own right, as well as a badass by a birthright which she has been growing up to become in her own right.
(
+)
Powers and Magic. Katrine's initial studying of the Force and Spells came through her mother and great-grandmother. Each woman took very different approach in their studies. One took to simply feeling the Force and embracing it, the other preferring a teacher-student approach. Katrine eventually discovered that the Force was part of her and a such, it came to her much more naturally than for most people. And while certain powers she has to actually practice to get right, others lay down for her like lovers, her brain quickly figuring them out and thus enabling her to pick them up easily.
(
+)
Spell Creator. While any Witch can write spells, Katrine has proven to be rather quick and able to come up with new spells on the spot when necessary, whether they're new spells altogether or re-writes of older longer spells in order to achieve their effects faster.
(
+)
Pilot. Kat is a skilled and efficient pilot, learning early from different unofficial tutors how to operate different vessels. Curupira described her piloting as reckless and bold at one point, noting she hadn't learned it from her which she hadn't. Like most things in life, the young Lupine likes to take the risk when she's flying though she's only crashed one ship, which is the Firecracker and she managed to get it to fly for a while after smaller repairs.
(
+)
Hyperthymesia. Katrine has always had a unique gift of being able to remember much more than an average person, able to recall an abnormally vast number of details in her life in near perfect details and moments of personal significant, able to vividly "see" a depiction of events and store a great deal of information stored.
(
+)
Mediumship. Katrine was born with an odd gift, one that has allowed her a connection to the spirits. This was the key to Avarisa's curse, allowed the deceased ancestor to latch onto the child and begin her corruption. Whereas one curse was broken, Katrine's ability to communicate with the spirits remains, both manifesting in her ability to reach out to the spirits of Mandragora, Mikko's spirits and even to the growing connection with the Hawk progenitor. There is a particular reason though why she was born with this gift. It defined her future from the moment she was born, which was to ascend to the role of the Mandragora Nightmother though this wasn't revealed to her when she had joined the group.
(+) Dominate Mind. Having been chosen by the spirit Jart upon becoming a Mandragora, Katrine has a natural affinity towards mind domination.
(See attached weakness bellow)
(
+)
Animal within. Katrine is a Lupine and has for several years now been able to transform into her wolf form (though it takes her a few minutes). But being in her animal form makes her stronger, faster, more dangerous.
(
+)
Broken Curse. With a little help from her future self from as well as a reminder of how love runs deep inside her, Katrine overcame the curse inside her and rid herself of Avarisa for all times. Since even her purple hair is washing out as physical evidence of it.
(
+)
A plethora of different skills: dancing, singing, marksmanship, swordsmanship, martial arts (heavily influenced by dancing), ability to pick up languages, forging
(
+)
Languages. Galactic Basic, High Galactic, Paecean (highly fluent), Bocce, Huttese, Binary (slightly above average), Ancient Sith (average, enough to use Sorcery)
(
+/
-)
Magical Ichor. During the mission to the old Sith Academy, Katrine encountered the magical ichor which had trapped tortured souls and was used by an old spirit. Due to her ascension as a NIghtmother, Kat absorbed some of it and the spirits inside it. The spiritual energy is a powerful weapon but when used, it's the only magic Katrine can use because of its power.
(
-)
Cursed. Since birth, Katrine had been haunted by the ancestor of the Hawk progenitor, intending on making her body strong enough to eventually take it over. After defeating Avarisa, whom Kat had always believed was nothing but an imaginary friend due to her own personality, the purple which was a physical manifestation of her curse began to fade away little by little.
(
-)
Honest. As much as she tries, Katrine is incapable of keeping secrets. As much as she tries, she eventually blurts out everything.
(
-)
Mistrustful. In light of her spending most of her life with parents and siblings, Kat can be quite mistrusting towards strangers. Her talkative and curious nature masks it to a degree but it does eventually show up in the small things.
(
-)
Talkative. Kat is extremely talkative and curious which is often visible in her ability to ask a ton of questions under just one minute, often she won't bother to wait for an answer because she might not like it.
(
-)
Vain. But along with being very talkative, she also very much likes the sound of her voice.
(
-)
Dominate Mind. Extensive usage of Dominate Mind may cause physical strain appearing as debilitating, cranial pain and hemorrhaging from various orifices.
(
-)
Dathomirian Genes. Though a descendant of the Hawk bloodline, who has been Dathomirian for generations, Katrine lacks the genetic structure of Dathomirian humans who live for hundreds of years and retain their youthful look. She has however spent her entire childhood on the planet, which has made her appear younger than her actual age, an issue that often emerges in her travels.
(
-)
Half-Breed Discrimination. While Katrine is not a half-breed at all as she was born of two Lupine parents, she was born on Dathomir among humans of her birth clan who have always looked at her wearily for being different than she was, more so even due to her psychotic tendencies.
(
-)
Easily Distracted. Because of the way Kat's mind has always worked, she often loses focus of what she'd doing and moved on to the next. Example of this being that her purpose in the past is only to find her sister Chloe and go back home but instead, she's had many adventures all by being distracted from the most important task.

On her trip back in time, she took the two prescription bottles she had which eventually run out, leaving her disorder to reach full potential.
