Prayer beads as a big part of Claudia's life and wardrobe.
She keeps them with her constantly, in order to take the full effect of meditation and the amplifications that they provide
her body with. The girl cannot stand to be without them, and if the string they are on breaks, she will not stop searching
until she has located all 108 beads.

Claudia was the only child of a loving family. Her
parents were a Meister and Weapon team who often travel many places while taking up various missions along the way. Still
being a young child at the time, only about five or six, The Vitalia parents would take their daughter along with them, if
the missions were not too dangerous, or if they would only be gone a day or two. There was one particular mission that Claudia
could not avoid going on with her parents, though it appeared to be a simple 'good will' mission without an ounce of adversary.
This mission was to bring food and everyday supplies to a small Chinese village in the mountains, Shao Lin. The rains of the
season made leaving the village quite rough, and the people had no real means to venture down the mountain and get what they
needed. They were a village of mainly monks, not having such possessions as vehicles and whatnot to transport themselves like
the modern world.
Being this far away from home for the first time was
exciting, and China was a beautiful country, her parents adored the people in the village and would talk of making plans to
return for a vacation when they could both get the time. However, Claudia's parents would not be able to leave this village
alive. Due to the rains, there were many mudslides along the mountain roads, making the paths in and out of the village very
treacherous. When they had prepared to leave and go home, Claudia's parents were taken from her so swiftly that she could
only see flash of their bodies as they were swept down the mountain and into the river in the valley. Rushing back to the
village, the child a distraught mess, many of the monks searched for them for days, though no one was able to recover their
remains. They had be taken too far down the river, but they were most likely dead before they had touched the water.
During this time, little Claudia did all she could
to find her parents, she did not want to eat or rest until they were back in her life. This, unfortunately lead to the child's
bodily and mental exhaustion, and collapsed somewhere in the forest while helping the monks search. When she awake two days
later, she was in the small home of Gang-Hui, a Buddhist monk in the village's temple, and his wife Xifeng, a former Buddhist
nun that left the monastery once the two were married. Xifeng was a kind and beautiful woman who cared for Claudia as though
she were her own child, though the Vitalia female was left very empty by her parent's unexpected death. She had no more family
to turn to, and so this village became her new family. Years passed, and much of her time was spent in the temple of Shao
Lin, cooking and doing laundry for the monks, just to help out as best she could, while Gang-Hui began to teach Claudia in
the ways of Buddha, and how it might be best if she channeled all of her sorrow and hurt from bad karma into good, and be
able to live a happier life.
As she grew into a young woman, these methods seemed
to help her a great deal. It was not that she would forget about her deceased parents, but that they would want her to live
a good life, and be cheerful and bright, much like how she was when they were still alive. Years of meditation and teachings
would soothe her soul, though with the discovery of her Weapon abilities, a new training came into her daily regiment. There
was a famous Archer that had been linked with the monastery by the name of Zhou Tong, an old friend of Gan-Hui's. Claudia
was brought to him, in order to get help honing her Bow skills so that she could better understand how to use herself as a
Weapon if the time came that she had to.
While training with the legend, a spoiled brat of
a young man made the trek all the way up the mountain, simply to buy her teacher's lessons and gain a new skill. Zhou Tong
would not have such a greedy and heartless individual as a pupil, and turned Romeo down flat, without a second thought. This
clearly angered Romeo, though, not seeing someone like this since she was a little girl, Claudia did not exactly understand
how someone could be holding so much hatred and bad karma within themselves, and still be able to keep living. As Romeo left
Zhou Tong and headed back toward Shao Lin, The Vitalia trailed behind him, feeling that from even so far away, she could almost
touch his conflicted soul. It was troubling. There, she told him of her Weapon form, and how she could possibly be his partner.
Willing to uproot her life in the village, for simply trying to give the boy some good karma and inner peace.
Romeo was a man that like to get what he wanted, and
idly agreed to have a trial run with her as his partner to see how well they would work together to benefit him. Claudia asked
her second parents about this, and Xifeng thought it would be best for Claudia to experience something better than just the
village, while helping Romeo with his empty heart, and show him that he could be happy, if he turned his views on life around.
It was settled for Claudia to join Romeo in whatever he did, to begin patching up his soul with a good example of Buddhist
teachings and to give him something less.. selfish to strive for, though it will be a long process indeed. Much of her existence
was sheltered in Shao Lin, and she is finally able to see what the real world is like, and experiencing such things with Romeo..
he might not be the best influence to have.

[ Personality and Soul Type ]
Claudia is a simpleminded girl that is uncommonly
happy most of the time. She follows the teachings of Buddha, though to a lesser degree than the Monks in Shao Lin had. She
did not commit to being a nun, though she tries to uphold the ways that she was taught as a child. The Vitalia can easily
look past all the bad in someone, and only chooses to look upon the good in their hearts. If, however, someone has no good
in their heart, she will call them out, and tell them that they need to meditate and dilute themselves of all the bad karma
they have.
