All right. Kor’s got a lot going on for her. She’s pretty with long naturally blonde hair and gray eyes that sometimes look really pale blue, and a sweet face and lightly tanned skin. She rarely wears makeup or perfume because she believes in ones natural beauty instead of faking it under makeup and scent. Normally, her hair is always down, flowing around her shoulders, unless she’s hunting.
While on the hunt, she likes to have her hair up so that it doesn’t get in the way when she’s trying to work. Her clothes are always the same though. Whether its just casual dress or hunting gear, she likes to wear things that she can easily move in, in case something happens when she isn’t expecting it, like a demon. Usually its her jeans, leather boots and jacket and a tank top of dark color.
It isn’t often that she’s forced to dress up but when she is, she despises the idea. Her idea of dressing up is putting on a fancy blouse and wearing the rest of her normal clothes. Its very rare you’ll see her in anything but that, especially a skirt or dress.

[app]Overall Personality:[/app]
Growing up with a couple of goofball brothers like Scott and Nathan were easy to get around. She looked up to them, but she wasn’t about to let them cow her into anything she didn’t want to do. From birth, it’d always been Kori that wore the pants in the brothers-sister relationship. She was the boss, and still is, even if she’s not the oldest. Growing up with two big brothers also gave her an advantage in the fact that she became one of those girls who could rough-house her way out of anything. If her brother didn’t do what she wanted him to do, she’d just sock him one. She is very opinionated and stubborn, just like her mother was, and doesnt back down easily from anything.
She isn’t all Ms. Do-It-My-Way though. For nearly three years, she was the youngest sibling in the group, and enjoyed being babied even if she was anything but in spirit. Now, though, she’d rather be treated like the oldest, not the baby. She fights to prove herself constantly to her brothers, even if they think she’s tough enough as it is. It’s just the way it goes with her, but she doesn’t mind all that much.
She and her younger sister also play the brains in the family. While her brothers try to jump into a hunt without any research whatsoever, she and Kiera are researching before they hunt. They work to find out everything they can on what they're hunting or what they could possibly be hunting if its an uncertainty. Its something that their brothers hate deeply, even if it is necessary.
After her mother died, Kori became the mother figure to her baby sister, Kiera. She didn’t want Kiera to grow up without that kind of relationship, so she toughed it out and raised her sister, with the help of her older brothers of course. If you asked anyone, they’d tell you she’d make the perfect mom. She’s got a good relationship with Kiera, and sets the proper boundaries for her, protects her, nurtures her. All that’s stuff. She finds it hard to do sometimes though, living the life they live as hunters.
Music's been Kor's passion since she was little. Her mom used to sing to her and she had the most beautiful voice in the world. When she turned four, she started online singing lessons (she couldnt very well go to a music academy since they were constantly moving around), and at the age of 6, she taught herself to play guitar from the old one that her father had in the back of his truck, that belonged to her mom. It wasnt long before she realized one night that she had a few ideas for songs of her own, and decided to start writing her own music.

[app]Overall History:[/app]
Aaron McAvoy and Kyli Wentworth were two very different people when they met. Aaron was a hunter, constantly on the road with no desire to settle down, and Kyli was a bartender in Ontario, Canada. They met while Aaron was on the hunt in Toronto and he fell in love with her quicker than you could snap your fingers. She wasn’t the same. Kyli was an opinionated, stubborn woman who wanted nothing to do with any man who tried to catch her eye (much like Kori is). But under all that, she did feel drawn to him.
It took nearly a year for Kyli to fall in love with him, but she did, and soon after that, the two of them got married. She knew though that it wouldn’t be possible for them to have a relationship if she was in one place and he was traveling around several. So, she quit her job as a bartender and started hunting with him, knowing full well what the danger of it was.
Two years of being on the road together were amazing, especially when KYli realized that she was pregnant. Well…it was amazing for Aaron, at least. Kyli didn’t want to bring children into a world like theirs but she knew she didn’t have any choice since she wouldn’t get an abortion and she refused to put the child up for adoption. So, after he was born, she tried to shelter Scott from their life as much she could, until he got old enough to deal with it.
Three years and another kid later, Kori was born. She was the sweetest little thing in the world as a babe, and she had everyone in her family wrapped around her little finger. She was very stubborn as a baby though, and when her mother tried to shelter her from the supernatural world, she resisted with every fiber of her being. She wanted in on this strange, dangerous world, even at a young age.
It wasn’t until she turned three that her younger sister Kiera was born and something happened. While Kyli was out with Kiera, getting groceries for their motel room, a small group of demons attacked when none of the others were prepared. The weapons were still in her fathers truck and he couldn’t reach them in time. And while her brothers and her father fought either way, she and her father were killed in the act. Her mother was stricken with grief, and in the midst of it, she left Kiera with her older brothers and went to make a deal with a demon to bring both her husband and her eldest daughter back.
Unfortunately, upon summoning the demon, she learned that to save to lives, you have to sacrifice two. And since she wasn’t willing to sacrifice anyone else for the ones she’d lost, she made the decision to save Kori. The demon gave her exactly one year to live, and at the end of that year, when Kori was again alive and turned three, her mother was killed by hell hounds. They went on from there, her brothers, sister and her, living with a family friend until her brothers were old enough to care for their younger siblings by themselves. Since then, they’ve been on their own, hunting demons as a group.

From the time she was born, Kori had known she wanted more than some safe, apple pie life. She wanted more. And when she got old enough to understand that there were things out there that no one in the world but a handful of people could understand, she knew that was the kind of world she wanted to be part of. She’d always felt out of place in the “normal” world. She didn’t want that.
As she perched atop the mausoleum in the graveyard, crouched so she could see everything but never be seen, she waited for her younger sister to bait a werewolf into the area. Using her sister as bait wasn’t exactly her idea of the best plan of strategy but her brothers had been right when they’d made the plan. They didn’t have any other choice. If one of them or even Kori herself tried to act as bait, it’d see through it. But if someone as innocent looking as her sister had gone, there wasn’t a chance in the world that a werewolf would pass up that juicy opportunity.
Her head snapped up, suddenly, her keen sense of hearing picking up on a growl just in the distance, “Show time.” she muttered. Her brothers, were waiting just past the mausoleum with the proper tools for killing a werewolf. Waiting, she edged toward the edge of the mausoleum and waited until her sister passed and the werewolf followed before she dove, tackling the creature onto the ground and away from her sister. That would at least distract it.
Tackling a werewolf was never a smart idea but she didn’t have many better ideas. She wanted to distract it from her sister and give her brothers long enough to get over here and take it out themselves. She yelped when it went for her throat, bringing her arm up against its own throat to block it from biting her, keeping up the struggle without letting it go.
C’mon, c’mon… Hurry up… she thought, just as a knife flew out of nowhere, embedding itself in the werewolves heart. Silver. Watching as the creature fell off of her, she breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, brushing herself off. Grabbing the hilt of the knife and tearing it out of the creatures body, she wiped the blood off and looked at her brothers and sister, that same fierceness in her eyes that she’d had even as a child, “Took you long enough.”
