Rebecca Collins was the youngest child and only daughter to Stan and Julie Collins. Her brothers, Josh and Caleb, were ten and twelve years older. They lived in a classic Chicago brownstone on Addison Street, two blocks from Wrigley Field.
On Christmas eve when Rebecca was twelve years old, with the family gathered for the holiday, tragedy struck. A group of strangers came to the house, confronting her father and eldest brother. Stan and Caleb were killed in the fight, and a fire was started in the home to finish off the rest. Julie and Josh were lost to the smoke. But Rebecca was found outside, deep in the trance of Awakening.
Terrified, alone, and much, much too young to comprehend what was happening, she was pulled from the visions that inadvertently saved her life. And for the next six and a half years, she was fostered by a series of families hand picked by The Adamantine Arrow.
Members of the Arrow came in and out of her young life, encouraging Beks to be a normal teenager with average grades, average friends, and average...everything. They explained the new way she could see and interact with the world as a Sleepwalker, and told her the truth about her family. Stan Collins was a mage, a high-status member of the Silver Ladder and an up-and-comer in Consillium politics. Caleb had Awakened the previous summer. And they had a powerful enemy among the Seers of the Throne.
It wasn't fire that killed Rebecca's family. It was Magic.
After turning 18 and graduating from high school, her true training began. Placed in the home of Pharrell Woodleaf, known in Mage society as Judgement, she began to learn the martial arts of larceny and assassination. She took college course online part-time, but her true skills with knives and daggers soon made Beks a valuable asset to the Arrow.
Thirteen years and one week after the death of her family, Rebecca had her second Awakening. This time she was prepared. This time, she faced the fear armed with the knowledge of what she could become. She walked the maze of Pandemonium and stepped out onto the Path of the Mastigos.
