[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- Thalia was born in the beginning of the 16th century in England. Back in those days, obviously, superhumans were still looked down upon, and Thalia's family had a hard time hiding her powers. She was the only gifted individual in her family and while normally it wasn't too difficult to hide, Thalia's power of invisibility was random and fluctuating. She could "disappear" at any time. Somehow she managed to survive, though she and her family were threatened many times by people who thought she was possessed by demons.
When she was 28, however, her life certainly changed forever. She was soon becoming a disgrace to her family - she had powers, had no prospects and at her age she wasn't married and had no family. She took to being alone, and she always had a penchant for being out too late at night. That bit her, literally, when she was cornered by a hungry vampire. He didn't bite her enough to kill her (unfortunately for him, somewhat fortunately for her) and she was turned herself.
Thalia doesn't talk much about her past, at least not that far back. She's been living far too long to care about what happened in her "youth." As vampires were even more looked down upon than superhumans she tried her hardest to masquerade as a somewhat normal human, changing her name and appearance as the years went on so she wouldn't be discovered. Between that time and the Golden Era of Heroes, she moved to New York City and when the Golden Era began, she became a career superhero. If she couldn't be accepted for one of her powers, she might as well try to be accepted for another.
She worked as a hero for quite some time, but it was impossible to hide her vampirism forever. When it finally was broke that she was a vampire, she ended up retiring from being a hero and instead moved on to be an agent. Not wanting other vampires to be shunned like she had been her whole life, she worked hard to find other vampires who could be heroes and actually use their vampire powers instead of hiding it. However, the agent life hardened her considerably - combining that with the desolation of living forever, and the woman certainly changed into a cold and vicious person.
Now that heroes are trying to make a comeback, Vireximus University reached out to Thalia so that she might teach vampirism at the university. While her main power is invisibility, vampirism powers are still somewhat shady in the public eye, and finding a professor was apparently difficult. Although she was getting tired of being in the public eye, something Thalia prompted her to accept it, and now she teaches at the university.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- PRIMARY POWER: INVISIBILITY. It's simple: Thalia can make herself appear and disappear at will. She can make herself turn invisible for a maximum of 2 hours, as she's had about 495 years to work on her skill. The longer she remains invisible, the more taxing it is on her, and if she were to remain invisible for the full time, she needs about 5 hours to recharge before she can turn invisible again. For this reason she usually turns invisible for short periods of time.
- SECONDARY POWER: VAMPIRISM. Along with the vampire package comes semi-immortality and enhanced condition. Thalia cannot die of old age, but she can be killed (just, you know, with a wooden stake or something like that.) Thus, she has looked to be 28 years old for most of her lengthy life. She also performs at peak condition in regards to speed, strength and senses with little to no upkeep, as per the enhanced condition. She also has retractable fangs as she is a vampire and blood is her main form of sustenance. Lastly, sunlight is painful to her, and though it will not cause her to melt and die she does get sunburns and fatigue. Her classes are at night but if she is out during the day she will be bundled up in sunglasses, hoods, scarves and long sleeves.
