Family: Juliana (mother, alive), Hans (father, alive), Nikolai (older brother, alive), Alex (older brother, alive)

History: Martina was born in Italy to a mixed couple. Her father was Norwegian, and his mother Italian. Martina worships her older brother Alex, and used to follow him everywhere. The family spent summer vacations in Norway, but the only Norwegian Martina really knows well is the swear words. When Martina was born, the whole family decided to move to Ohio, America, since her mother had gotten a job as psychologist there. Her father decided to start up the practice he had left in Norway, and created a judo school that quickly became popular. Judo soon became the passion in the Seahorn family, and Martina followed the example of her elder brothers, training judo as much as she could in order to be a match for both of them. But when she was 14, Alex got lycanthropy and was ushered out of the family. Martina was completely crushed, but there wasn’t anything she could do about it. She tried to run away from home, but was kindly picked up by the police and grounded thoroughly. The years went by, and at age 19, Martina found herself in an unhealthy relationship. The guy she was dating, Robert, liked to verbally abuse her, making her feel tiny and worthless. She went to her brother and learned the merged judo-karate in an attempt to boost her self-esteem. She got very good, but it didn’t work. Then Robert tried to beat her up. Martina cleaned the floor with him, finally realizing that it was him who was worthless not her. She moved back to the family home while the police did their work. Robert got a restraining order. Martina couldn’t stand the thought of being in the same city as him. At the same time she had a small breakthrough. She had secretly searched for Alex, and found his phone number, and now she found out he was in Boston. It was perfect. She told her family that she needed to get away, and that she would move to Boston for a while. Gathering savings and clothing, Martina packed and set out. She found Alex in Boston and was allowed to share apartment with him.
Not long after moving to Boston, Marty started going out with the local Brenin, and eventually persuaded him to infect her with lycanthropy. Her brother threw a small fit when he found out, but they worked through it and kept up their friendship. She rose quickly in the rodere, soon becoming Brys’s lieutenant. Then Martina broke up with Brys after a particularly nasty argument. She turned to Hailey and Gabe, werefoxes who she didn’t know very well before waking up in bed with them. She tried getting over Brys with their help, but it was of no use. Brys went home to Wales to spend time with his family and get his priorities in line again, which forced Martina, who by now was the most powerful rat in the clan, to take up position as a leader. It was terrifying for her, and she turned first to drink, then to vampires during her free hours. However, her addictions had to come to an end, and she ended it herself, having realized that although getting bitten by vampires was glorious, it wasn’t worth the weakness that followed. Stopping altogether proved too hard for her at that time. When Brys returned, drawn by a crisis within the clan, Martina kept her addiction a secret until she had managed to rid herself of it. This also taught her how to lie by omission, which made her feel more distant from her ex-lover than ever. However, they made an attempt of getting back together, and the relationship still holds even though it can be rickety at times. When the shifter plague started killing off lycanthropes, Brys could only be thankful that his people seemed to be unaffected by it. However, it did get him to thinking that two leaders were better than one, and made Martina officially Dronning, or Rat Queen. Martina was glad to finally get te official title, although she had pretty much taken it for her own from the moment she had had to lead the clan alone. Back then it hadn’t been official, now it finally was.

Strengths: Her complete ruthlessness in a fight, her sense of justice, agility, her ability to lie convincingly
Weaknesses: her addictive personality, vampires and alcohol, she’s a bit of an exhibitionist which isn’t always good when trying to stay unnoticed, no sense of direction, and she’s completely incapable of keeping a fire going.
