getting to know you ..x..[/color]
General Appearance:
Other Kate is of average height, topping out at around 5'6, she has light auburnish brown hair and green eyes. Being a Shadowhunter since birth she likes to stay in shape, so she has lots of lean muscle, though at first glance you would not think this somewhat curvy gal would be able to take down someone. Her body is covered with the usual Runes that leave faint white scares running over her skin, Kate displays them with pride, though her mother wishes she would cover up more. Like her siblings, she is never with out her necklace (her brothers have a ring). The necklace is a silver pedant with a small emerald inlaid in it.
FC: Emily Vancamp
Talents: Healing - for someone who likes killing demons, Kate also has a knack for taking care of the injuries Downworlders can cause. She mainly learned all this from her mother, when she would treat her brothers after a hunt. If you get cut up, she can most likely help you till a more experienced healer is found.
Interests: History, fighting, reading, finding the best cup of coffee in NYC
Personality: Kate is a headstrong girl who isn’t one to back down from a challenge. She is loyal to those she calls friends and fiercely protective when it comes to her family. She loves to learn knew things and isn’t afraid to ask for help when she needs it. Whenever things are looking grim she will always look for a silver lining, if you want to get on her good side, try to make her laugh. She loves a good joke.
Weaknesses:
- Temper
- Often too trusting
- Her family

..x.. your past[/color]
History: Kate was born on a cold stormy night in Alicante, her family was overjoyed at the arrival of a little girl; the little red head was named mainly for her grandmother, a very old and accomplished Shadowhunter herself. From birth Kate was immersed in the world of the Shadowhunters; it was a couple of years before she could begin any type of training, so Kate would watch her brothers train, and mimic their movements later on in her room. When she was seven her parents allowed her to start training with her brothers, this mainly consisted of light sparring, self defense methods and learning about different types of runes. As she got older her grandmother started showing her how to properly handle a sword, she and Kate practiced daily till the older women grew too old and had to rely more and more on a cane. Then she started sparring with one of her brothers when they were free, otherwise her time was spent with her grandmother.
A few days shy of her nineth birthday, Kate's parents got word that they were being sent to the New Orleans Institute, the family left Alicante and headed "across the pond", at first Kate hated leaving her grandmother and the beautiful country known at Idris, and personally New Orleans was too humid for her liking. But after a while she started liking the new wild city with its abundance of Downworlders. With her parents running the New Orleans Institute, Kate was free to hunt and train, as long as her brothers were there to watch. Slowly, through much trial and error Kate developed into a strong fighter, with both seraph blade and short sword. For her fourteenth birthday her grandmother sent her a present; the Short sword she use to use when she was back in her prime, it is one of her most prized possessions. Two years later she is still fighting demons along side her brothers, though Andrew has been spending more time in Alicante lately, so it has been her and Mal on most of the nightly hunts.

Mardi Gras
Kate wove in and out through the mass of people, even though she moved against the crowd of people she was unseen. 'Oh the beauty of being unseen' she smiled to herself as she ducked to avoid being hit in the face by a intoxicated woman. Mardi Gras was a busy time for the city, and due to the influx of people, other things also liked to sneak out. Darker things, things of nightmares. But those things where exactly why she was out, walking admits the crowds keeping a eye out for any suspicious. As she started to turn on to another street a firm hand grasped her shoulder, Kate's hand went for the knife on her hip, "Easy.." the male voice called, Kate looked back and frowned, "I told you not to do that" she let go of the knife handle. Her older brother just smiled and shrugged, "You see anything yet?" he asked, moving to stand beside her. Kate glanced over at him; like herself he was dressed in all black and covered in runes, he looked exactly like his brother Andrew, except his eyes were a slight shade darker green. "Not yet," the two stood watching the crowds for several minutes before Mal tensed up, Kate followed his gaze and saw the demon.
It was being bold and moving about the crowd like one of the humans, anyone who got close enough to it could easily pass it off as someone wearing a mask. Kate moved to go after it, but Mal held her back, "Lets see where he goes" once again they watched as the demon moved down the street, when it disappeared into a alley, the two Shadowhunters sprung into action. Kate took the lead of following the demon, Mal got caught up in the wave of people and soon lost sight of her. As she entered the alley she pulled her seraph blade out, keeping her eyes on the shadows she raised the blade close to her mouth, "Jerahmeel" she wishpered. The blade lit up in a bright blue white light, for a brief moment the shadows were gone. Kate saw the demon lurking by a dumpster, this time his face didn't look human, it was a nasty mix of melted skin and scaled. Large pointed teeth stuck out from his mouth and dripped with what she was going to assume was poison.
"S-s-s-shadowhunter" it hissed, Kate raised the blade in one hand, ready for the monster to attack, she tuned out the sounds of the crowds only a few feet away, and focused on the demon. "You know you shouldn't be here" the demon moved away from the dumpster, "S-s-s-uch pretty girl..." it moved within arms reach, Kate lunged and tried to stab it, but the demon moved a fraction of a second quicker. It's claws shot out and raked her upper arm, Kate gritted her teeth and spun again to go for another attack, a fist slammed into her chest, it sent her back into the brick wall, her head connected with a 'twack' . Kate blinked away stars, the demon grabbed her shoulder, pinning her to the wall, it dug its claws into her upper shoulder, "Pretty girl....all alone..." its breath stank of a dead body, she could see rows upon rows of sharp teeth glistening from its mouth.
She struggled to move but he had a good hold on her, something moved behind the demon, it heard the sounds of foot steps, keeping a hold on Kate it glanced down the alley to where the newcomer stood hidden in the shadows, "Hello?" he called? Kate felt relief rush through her at the sound of Mal's voice, where the hell had he been this entire time? The demon was now more intrigued by the new meat, she saw his retract his rows of teeth, and appear more "human". "Nothin to see here buddy" he called in a cheesy accent, Mal stepped closer, "Actually there is...." the demon hissed, "Get you hands off her" Mal added, Kate brought her knee up into the demons stomach and pushed him away, Mal grabbed its arms as it stumbled back, Kate then spun and sank her seraph blade in as deep as it would go. Black blood covered the blade and spilled out over her hands, "Enjoy your night" she gave the blade a strong twist.
Mal let the demons body fall to the ground, Kate looked down at it and smiled, satisfied with her kill, her brother on the other hand was not so quick to share in her joy. "Damn it mom is going to kill me" he pulled her into the dim light coming from the street and looked at the cuts the demon had left, "Why?" Kate asked, "It's not like it won't heal" she pulled out her stele and began drawing a healing rune, "If anything it will ache tommrow, no big deal" Mal watched her finish drawing the rune. "I think it's time to call it a night.." he said looking up at the sky, she finished drawing the rune and watched as it faded to the inky blackness of a new rune, she pocketed her stele and looked to her brother, "Shall we?" she asked. Mall just nodded and the two started heading home.
