General Physical Condition

Desdemona has some challenges, but can manage them fairly well for now. She does have GERD, poor knee structure, poor eyesight, and a mild hearing loss. Thankfully with the aid of modern medicines and contacts she can manage and see where she is going. If you don't speak up, however, she probably won't hear you. There is likely to be knee sugery at some point, but Des is putting it off as long as possible. It does seem to be a weird family trait though... they of scarred knees.

Personal history

Desdemona was born to nomadic parents who tried not to stay in anyone place for too long. Desdemona was born practically bald, but when her hair did finally grow, she had a head full of red curls. She had two siblings and numerous cousins, but out of them all, she was the only one bestowed with bright red hair.
Desdemona’s parents valued education and sent them to whatever schoolhouse they could find. However, while at school, Desdemona was often off in the clouds. If she wasn’t dreaming of being some place else, then they were imagining stories or pieces of art that they could create.
When Desdemona was nine, she was kidnapped by an angel turned demon and brought into purgatory. There, the creature was met by another and the two of them whispered a thousand stories, images, and other creative endeavors into the young child’s mind.
When Desdemona’s mind was filled, they brought her back to her parents’ house. They deposited her in her room and built a cocoon of sorts around her. It looked almost like a giant egg. They told her parents to leave it alone and in three months their little redhead would be reborn a new creature. They were told not to interfere, least they be killed.
Desdemona’s parents did as they were told. In three weeks, the cocoon pulsed and Desdemona broke free. At first, their child seemed to be the same. Des wanted to draw and write, but that was not that unusual. Within a few days, however, she started complaining about a pain in her back. Before her parents could seek medical attention, Desdemona’s back split open and two wings broke out. They were a strange set of wings, seeming to be both angelic and demonic at the same time. They were both black and white, both reptilian and bird like.
The original angel made demon who had kidnapped her visited again and taught Desdemona how to use them properly and hid them back into herself.
Desdemona eventually returned to school and life as normal. She interacted with the world as best she could, but a storm of ideas was always there in the back of their mind, demanding to be set free.
