She lives in a high rise apartment in boston with her wife. There is a kitchen with marble countertop a walk in fridge and a multitude of high end appliances. The tv room has a 70inch flatscreen tv a sofa made of black satin. One of the rooms is for her wife's paintings. The bedroom has a king sized four poster bed with an ash wood frame painted blood red. The sheets and blankets are black silk. There is a gaming room where she hosts a vampire the masquerade game for her friends from college which is dmed by her older sister. It large displays containing miniatures, books, maps, and other memorabilia. She lives there due to it being a safe area and relatively close to the college one of her mothers teaches at.
She is currently unemployed and spends much of her free time reading and studying the occult in hopes of gaining supernatural powers in order to heal her wife aria's curse that was gained in an incident altea feels personally responsible for. Her finances come from her parents giving her an allowance. One of her mother is a professor of archeology at harvard and her other mother is a brain surgeon. Her wife is a painter that makes money off of commisions. Altea spends her money on collecting white wolf merchandise and searching for a cure for her wifes legs.
Altea would do just about anything for her wife Aria and Aria is fiercly protective of her. One of altea's stalkers cursed her wife with a powerful death curse at the cost of their own life. Altea feels personally responsible and will do anything to cure her so long as it doesn't harm Aria in any way. She would gladly put her life on the line and wouldn't blink at the thought of trading the life of another for that of her beloved. Torture someone for information? If it gets the job done who cares. She does however actively avoid doing anything that could get her in major legal trouble if she feels there is a risk of getting caught. She can't cure her wife if she's behind bars afterall.
(First person altea's pov) For some reason or another I've always attracted the wrong kind of men. One day a couple years ago my apartment was broken into I didn't get home until the last moment but my wife Aria was there. When I began to enter our flat I noticed the lock had been forced and immediately draw my handgun and rushed in. I heard shouting from Aria's art room and ran in. When i got there a saw a man I didn't recognize standing over her prone form and beginning to cast a spell over Aria's prone form. I immediately open fired with 3 shots to the chest downing him just as he finished the spell. He shouted "If I can't have her no one can" then a black wave of energy flew out hitting both me and aria. I blacked out. When I came out there was a pile of dust where he had been standing and i had a blood red tattoo like mark shaped like a broken heart on my left wrist. I ran over to Aira who was still unconcious and just as i touched her she woke up and screamed as a similar mark with the number 999 on it appeared. I immediately went to the best cursebreaker i could find with her and they explained that if I ever touched someone who i have mutual attraction to a curse would activate that would kill them in 999 days. However he couldn't break it. 1 year has passed since then and I have yet to find a solution. I will save her no matter what it takes. I have yet to kill at this point but if a Faustian bargain is what it takes to save her then so be it.
