History: Born a Graverobber to two humans, David and Helena Stuckrath. Her birth name was Sara Stuckrath. It was quite a shock to her parents when she was born a Graverobber. What  gave it away is the dark bat shaped birthmark on her left wrist. Being highly Catholic, they were distraught. They decided to try and ignore the fact that she was not actually human. They raised her as if nothing was different. She went to normal school and seemed to be just fine. When she was around seven, her parents noticed a huge decline in her health. She would be constantly coughing, and sometimes would even cough up blood. Worried, her parents knew nothing about Graverobbers other than when a Graverobber dies, another is born in it's place to a random couple. They thought it was a random cold. One evening during dinner, the coughing  got even worse. It was continuous and hard, always bringing up blood. Panicked they had no choice than to take her to the  hospital. While rushing her there she fell unconscious. Once in the hospital a doctor quickly looked her over and instantly knew what was wrong the minute he saw the birth mark. Stepping out into the waiting room, he informed her parents that she was a Graverobber. As per the policy of the hospital, he had to call the authorities. If she wasn't taken to the Monastery, she would die. Outraged, her parents threw  a fit, and forced they're way into her room. They proclaimed that they would rather have her die than go to the Devil's Monastery. Within minutes, disciples of the Goddess of Death arrived at the hospital in full decorum, dark black full length robes. The people in the hospital cowered in fear, because usually when the disciples appeared, death soon followed. They stormed into Sara's room removing her from her bed. Her parents ignored the fact that they were disciples of death and tried to fight them off. The disciples ignored their futile attempts, they simply held them back and took their daughter from them. Taking her up to the helipad on top of the hospital. Loading her into the helicopter they flew to the airport where their private jet awaited them. They hoped they could get Sara to the Monastery in time, seven years was an awfully long time to be away from the Monastery for someone so young and not matured. It was an 18 hour flight from St. Louis to the Himalayas.  She made it barely alive to the Monastery. After a week long stay in the medical wing, she awoke. Frantic, because she did now know where she was, she panicked and destroyed the room she was in. It took her over a week to fully calm down and come to terms that she would probably not see her parents again and that she was not actually human. It was a lot to take in for a  7 year old. It took her another month before she could fully be acclimated into life at the Monastery. She did very well and was a very powerful Graverobber. At the extremely young age of 14 she was taken to the main hall of the Monastery, the Hall of the Goddess. The Goddess appeared before her and accepted her as her child. She was "reborn" and given the name Serith Vandegrift. The birthmark on her wrist faded some and the outline of a bat appeared on her chest between her shoulders. She was then accepted as an apprentice. She worked hard through her apprentice ship and at the ripe age of 19 she was taken back to the Hall of the Goddess. Her outline was filled in and she had the tattoo of a bat on her chest. Scrollwork came from either side of the bat covering her entire chest from shoulder to shoulder. This was normal, but she was gifted. Her tattoos kept growing, they flowed over her shoulders down her back and chest, all over her stomach and back and down her arms and legs. The delicate scroll work of the tattoos covered her entire body. No one knew why but the goddess, and she wasn't talking. Now a full a Graverobber, she was able to accept missions and explore outside the Monastery. One day she was just wandering around the mountains when she came upon another building. The Vampire Academy. It was here where she met Avsky Älska. Avsky attacked Serith, outside the school. She had never known anyone outside of the academy. They rapidly became friends. When Serith got back to the Monastery she was given her first mission, her first graveyard to rob. It went by without a hitch. This went on for many years, she would complete missions then  go back to the Monastery and visit Avsky. When Serith turned 50, she was given a mission to go back to the United States, back to St. Louis where she was born. St. Louis had rapidly become a hub for the supernatural, the graveyards were teeming with souls that needed to be taken care of. She was to go take care of a single graveyard then go back to give information. She completed her mission in record time without a hitch, but when she got back to the airport, her plane never arrived. She never heard any news of what happened or anything from the Monastery at all. The first time she heard anything was on her 60th birthday, she ran into Avsky at a local vampire bar in St. Louis. They were so excited to see each other. Avsky informed her that not long after Serith left, the Monastery closed itself off to the outside world. They sealed off the bridge that lead to the gates. She was now alone in the world with no one but Avsky. She was fine with that though, she had learned to get along really well on her own in those ten years. She worked as a freelancing Graverobber to a Voudun priestess who guided these souls to the other side. Her and Avsky live together in a house in the outskirts of St. Louis.

Personality: She is rather cold and uncaring. She doesn't care about much, she just does her job like she was brought up to do. The only person she really cares about is Avsky. She's her best friend.
