EXTRAS_________________________________________
- born to adored french courtier astrid èmile, and american politician benjamin price. appolonia spent her childhood roaming the sprawling estate and living a highly luxurious, albeit solitary, lifestyle. unbeknownst to her, astrid had in fact remained the longtime mistress of her father's for the past several years, with the manor nothing more than a getaway from his legitimate wife and child who remained overseas and under the illusion that he flew back and forth for the sake of business negotiations and important conferences. upon turning sixteen however, appolonia and her father discovered that astrid was in fact of mutant genealogy. distraught but still hopelessly in love with the woman, benjamin left the estate in her name so that she and appolonia might live a comfortable life even in his absence. he then returned to new york and neither of the women saw him again.
- appolonia - left with nothing in the way of answers or satisfactory explanations - continued life as though nothing had changed. she was attended to by private tutors and educated in areas of social etiquette, art, music and fashion by her mother. in essence, she was trained to become a proper lady who could act independently without the aid of a man. she flourished, becoming a highly intelligent individual with a savvy business sense and taste for the finer things in life. she knew exactly how to twist and manipulate words in order to achieve her own ends and was intent on creating a reputation to rival that of her mother's. at eighteen she left, promising to visit often, and took up residence within the heart of paris to further refine her skills and finally experience the world outside of the secluded mansion.
- eventually she became the head consultant of a highly respected art museum, and relished in the chance to make a living collecting beautiful things. she had a much more profound appreciation for antiques than most people and with her father's intuition was able to barter quite masterfully. she became renowned within the city for her elegant displays and vast collections of rare, valuable pieces and was welcomed with open arms by high society. having risen from an anonymous name to someone with great potential, appolonia garnered the affection of many. sebastian villas was a man also ensnared by her, and began his relentless pursuit for her acceptance. they dated on and off for several months before proceeding to purchase a grand penthouse in which they lived together. not long thereafter, he proposed. and she became mrs. appolonia villas.
- three years into their marriage appolonia began to notice that sebastian had become increasingly volatile and jealous. for instance, he became particularly enraged when she spoke to any other male individual and constantly questioned her whereabouts and fidelity. she felt alienated from him and inevitably fell out of love. afraid of what he might do should she claim she was leaving him, appolonia fled to her mother's mansion, knowing without a doubt that the woman would shelter her, even despite the fact that they hadn't spoken in over a year. and it seemed that they would never speak again. appolonia discovered her mother's dead and decaying body within the foyer and realized that her secret had been let out. completely lost and afraid, the devastated woman bought the first plane ticket to america where she vowed to find her father and finally demand the answers he had never given her.
- currently, she works for one of the more prestigious art museums and has yet to locate her father. constantly terrified of the fact that a mutant will link astrid with her, she keeps her ex-husband's name and the fact that she is an illegitimate child to a member of government under wraps. there is danger around every corner; all she has to do is say the wrong thing to the wrong person and she'd make the perfect opportunity for demanding ransom.
