Personal history

Born in Jalka to a semi wealthy family, Laura is an only child whose mother passed away at birth. She was raised by her loving father, a clock maker, who allowed her to aspire to do whatever she wanted. Such inspiration led Laura to be mischievous as a child until she met Calum and Sone, who took mischief to new levels. From there she became the voice of reason for the group, often making the others question their motives. When her father grew ill she turned to discover Essence and became obsessed with finding a way to cure him to no avail and he passed not long after she turned fifteen, leaving everything to her including his prized watch. She continued to study Essence though to help her friend should they get into trouble and they often did. This drew the attention of the military and, at the age of seventeen she was offered a scholarship to further her studies. She has since worked as part of the military as a Combat and Essence Strategist, earning her an elevated rank and a seat on war councils. Meeting Geralt along the way they soon fell in love and have had a short and exciting relationship thus far. She keeps in touch with Calum to the best of her ability.
