- Violet Blackwood

Violet Blackwood is a former thief, now student attending Haven Academy. Her weapon of choice is two black and purple daggers. She is a member of Team SLVR.

History
Violet grew up on the lower layers of Mistral, they were incredibly poor and her parents were unable to find jobs. At the time, she and her brother were too young to try and get jobs. They struggled, but they survived.

One day at the age of twelve, while walking the streets Violet noticed a fruit vendor. Her stomach growled but she had no money to buy food. She was incredibly hungry, and she knew her family was too. When the vendor wasn't looking, she grabbed four apples and left with them. This was the first time that Violet had ever stolen something, and it gave her a rush of excitement, as well as a sense of accomplishment knowing she had provided for her family.

When she returned with her apples, her family asked where she had gotten them she simply replied: "Don't worry about it." They didn't question her, and just ate the apples. From that moment on, Violet continued stealing. She stole food at first, eventually moving on to money and whatever she could get her hands on.

As the years went on, Violet's older brother wanted a better future. So he worked incredibly hard to get a stable job. After years of hard work, her brother finally earned a spot on the police force of Mistral City. With a solid income, he was able to move his family into the upper layers of the city, and provide for his parents, now too old and sick to support themselves. He also provided support for Violet.

Violet knew that she had no reason to steal anymore, but even though she didn't need to; she still wanted to. Now living in the more populated areas, Violet expanded her horizons and began hitting bigger, richer targets.

In her thieving years, Violet has been caught four times. The first time she was simply arrested and released by her brother. The second time was pretty much the same. The third time, Violet was attacked by the person she was stealing from and lost her left eye. She wasn't jailed with the help of her brother and the fact that she didn't pose a real threat and hadn't actually stolen anything at the time.

The fourth and final time Violet was caught, she was threatened to be put away. Her brother managed to work out a deal, if Violet joined Haven Academy and put her skills to good use, she would be free of jail time.

Violet didn't really care if she was jailed or not, but her love for her brother convinced her. Despite actually joining the academy, she doesn't put much effort into it.

Family
Violet's Parents (to be named) - Not much is known about Violet's parents or her relationship to them. She stole to provide for them and loves her parents, but their personalities are not known as of now.

Violet's brother (to be named) - Violet has a conflicting relationship with her older brother. He wants her to give up her dangerous and illegal lifestyle as a thief, but she simply doesn't want to. She often ignores his advice and refuses his help on a daily basis. He loves his younger sister more than anything, but he also wants to her suceed in life. Due to his position as a police officer, he is able to bail her out most times but he was getting annoyed in doing so.

Finally, at the end of his ropes, he forced Violet to join Haven Academy. He knew that fighting Grimm could be dangerous but he knew that Violet would have the support of a team and the enforcement of professors to keep her safe and in line.
