Overview

      Genevieve Elaine Bellerose was born February 12th of 1970 in Paris, France. Her father was an Arthurian Historian and her mother was an art restoration manager that worked at the Louvre. She has an older brother by the name of Arthur Lavaine Bellerose. Growing up was a mix of the old and the new. Her father's research to the past mixed with her mother's push into the push into the future and uncovering things. Genevieve was quiet and helped her mother with things. She was average in school. Average in everything really. When she was getting ready to start her Senior year of high when she was at an art show with her mother and father. She, like any growing teenager that wanted to be out with her friends, instead of at a boring event with adults and over priced wine, ventured out into the different galleries and found the Arthurian section. For some reason she was drawn to the Gods Speed painting.

      And that painting is the last thing she remembers of the real world. Because that Knight in the painting took on a twisted visage and drug her kicking and screaming into Arcadia and into her Keepers realm. She was 16. The Illuminated Tapestry is a Keeper that takes on many different faces to keep things fresh. The painting that the victim gets pulled into is the world that they are left in. For Genevieve, that was the medieval times. Which was to say for her the most terrible thing that could happen given her early years. She went through all the parts of the medieval world. Peasant, Knight, Thief, Queen, Scholar. You name it, she was it and that meant she had to learn a lot of ways of talking and figuring things out. There was always a part to play. The last part she played though was that of the Golden Lance. A prize jouster that did her job very well.

      A little too well. Someone challenged for the place of the Golden Lance and poisoned her in the process. Being unhorsed meant that she lost. What she did not count on was them trying to kill her outright and that snapped her back out of things. With her injured arm she took up her sword and cut a bloody path out of the lists and through the thorns to freedom. She came out a bloody mess near Innsbruck, Austria. Much to her surprise she could understand what they were saying, but she couldn't speak the language or read anything unless it was in French. Which made communication next to impossible past basic things. It was three days in when they actually found someone that could speak a lick of French and that helped. Within a few days, one of the local Changelings had came to talk to Genevieve while she was healing. To try to help her get a grip on things. To say she didn't really understand was an understatement and it took months for her to heal as she wouldn't take to healing magically. And they didn't want to force it on her.

      Six months later with the knowledge that she had lost everything in her mortal life she set out to try to start a new. She reclaimed her old name, with her new face, some money and some purpose. They thought it would be alright. She joined up with Dawn not long into her trip. She went several places, but her road lead her eventually lead her to Rome two years after she escaped. Rome is where she two significant things happened to her. The first being where she murdered a loyalist in a red haze given he tried to take her back to Arcadia and she wasn't having any of that. The second was meeting the only person she trusts, Alistair. He's the only one that knows what happened that night in Rome and she's not shared it with anyone else. And she's traveled with him ever since. Some might say it's blackmail. Others might say it's fear or something else. But she's very loyal and protective of Alistair. Maybe she just doesn't want anyone to mess up her fellow Pilgrims face? Lancelot is here to work for November at Rising Sun Tourney's and rumor has it that the Spring will be as well. So there is a lot yet to be seen.
