Appearance
Eva is nicely built. She's fit without being too skinny while her curves are perfectly and somewhat generously filled in. Her skin is soft, fair, pale, except for the freckles which dot across it giving her a almost girlish look at times. There's something very calm and sweet about her eyes, yet there is also the shadows of years spent wandering there.
Personality
If three words could be used to describe Eva, they would be: calm, quiet, and kind. She is not always outspoken, and sometimes even comes off as shy though she's not. She also isn't a social butterfly, though she does not do badly in social settings having excellent and respectful manners. She simply does not have strong desires to get out a lot, preferring to spend more time with books and art. Though this does not lead Eva to appearing fragile or submissive. She can be, and is, quite commanding, she just rarely raises her voice to try to get her point across. Occasionally she does though. Nor is she mean or cruel towards others, whether they be vampire or dolls. She has an eye for the behavior behind the actions and she so often acts as the voice of reason behind her sister's commands.
Ability
Telepathy, both ways. She can project and read thoughts, images and even sensations to a point.

History
Born during the witch hunt in the area north of Amsterdam, in the country called today Netherlands. Eva grew up in a poor household with only one sibling, her identical twin Kate. She lived in a small village, at the end of nowhere, with the superstitious countryfolk. Unlike her sister, Eva noticed some of the issues between her parents as a child. She was always one to notice details in the behavior of people. Though she didn't always know what they meant, nor did the young girl always concern herself with them.
Even though the small dairy farm she lived on was remote, Eva never felt lonely. She had the company of her twin sister. She spent every waking hour with her and it wasn’t unusual for one of them to finish the sentence begun by the other. There were so many things to do on the farm, so many places where an adventurous girl could get in trouble… and Kate found it. often despite Eva's protests that would've prevented trouble.
Eventually, it lead to the ultimate trouble. Kate dragged her sister to a ball. Eva was not on board with the idea, she didn't like the idea thinking it a mistake. But Kate had known just what to say to convince her; there would be a small orchestra there and the man playing the violin was known to them to be particularly handsome… He was also a vampire. Eva was once again proven right, though for once she wished she hadn't been. The girls were pulled apart, and both died that night to be reborn before dawn and cursed never to see the sun again. After the shock, the rage and the grief, Eva finally began to accept her fate.
With no need to sleep, Eva too began to absorb herself into studies. Having never been the most social of butterflies, and having no real desire to be so witty any vampire except her sister, allowed Eva to get lost for long hours. Books, music, scienist, and her favourite; art. While music enchanted her, especially if she could play while her sister danced, art was her love. Drawing, painting, sculptures, she was enthralled to it all. There was something magical about it, she could lose herself as she created scenes from the depths of her imagination.
It wasn't long though, before Kate decided to leave. Eva pleaded with her not to, but to no avail, Kate had her mind set. So as her sister left for the new world, Eva lingered behind. She didn't know why, but she had no desire to follow her sister yet. Though she made sure they never lost touch. Instead, she stayed with the coven which created them for some years. She had stuck up a friendship with another young vampire there, and she and he were close. But soon enough, he too left Eva behind. Feeling she had no more reason to stay, Eva left herself and struck out on her own.
Eva traveled, anywhere and everywhere she could that was known for their art. She sought out ancient art being dug from ruins. She went to China and learned of water colors. To Greece to see their sculptures of gods. Throughout Europe to see the beautiful churches and works of famous artists. All while she continued her own, selling it wherever need be. She collected a small fortune, always saving any conserving. All while she never lost touch with Kate.
Eventually though, Eva grew weary of her travels. Kate told her of her plans to set up her own coven in Vermont. Eva honestly thought her sister a bit mad, wanting to start a coven at their young age. But it gave Eva a new project and goal. So, without further debate, Eva finally joined her sister in Vermont. Once she got there, she saw Kate's plan was solid and supported. It could work, if done yet. So, she pooled her own resources with that of Kate's and helped her sister build the coven.
Build it they did, it grew quickly and fruitfully, they kept the coven in a good state of stability through the years. Kate was always the loud, commanding, and sometimes brash boss. While Eva was the quiet observer who still tried to wheel her sister in when she felt her steps were leading her towards trouble. It worked well this way. Kate took charge, while Eva worked quietly in the background and was never forced to be more social than she desired.
Recently, Eva decided to take a trip. She had gotten a letter from a old friend, the vampire she studied art under in China. She decided to pay her old friend a visit and go to China for a month. She could use a vacation after all. She only hoped she wouldn't come to Kate having done something too troublesome. Not that she doubted her sister's ability and wisdom. She just had to pull her off of hay stacks too often as children ...
