Esme was always a fickle child.
[break][break]
Even as a girl, she moved on pretty quickly from toys and other children when she grew bored of them. Nothing could seem to keep her attention for long. Born to an aristocrat and his wife in a small village, she was the only girl among three older brothers. Pampered and spoiled, the girl was given whatever she wanted. A typical princess tale without the princess title. Though a bit poorer than other nobles, her childhood was nonetheless a normal one. It was comfortable and she wanted for hardly anything.
[break][break]
A pretty girl, she could charm others. As a young woman, she turned heads. Her vanity was clearly there, and perhaps that was her downfall. She could not decide on a suitor her father picked out and declared she would find one herself. After three years of roaming the village in pursuit of a suitable husband, she flaunted her body among the "commoners" and gave into pleasure. One of the men she was with took it hard. Looking only for a quick fling, she rejected his proposal. That man was a mage, and he struck a bargain with a demon to curse his beloved Esme. She would be dragged out of the spotlight she so loved, cast in the shadows of others.
[break][break]
The demon gave her the "gift" of controlling what shadow she wanted to cast, and however she wanted to cast it. Though her soul would be eaten away by the darkness eventually, and every time she used her power it would eat at her very appearance until she was nothing but a shadow herself. The result was this; each time she activated her power for long periods of time, her skin would blacken. She would become a withered husk. Her mother and father were horrified she got herself into such a position, and though they tried to help her, Esme decided to leave her glamorous life. She was humiliated, scared and most of all conscious about the effect on herself.
[break][break]
She decided to travel to find a cure, wrapping herself up in bandages where her skin had already turned black. Too self-conscious, she remained unaffiliated, never getting close to others for long. The experience didn't seem to humble her; she still was concerned mostly about her beauty and how others perceived her.
