Patience Emliy Marcone
I'm gonna eat you up, spit you out
And run you right into the ground
I'm gonna wind you up, turn you on
And burn all your bridges right down
I'm gonna eat you up, spit you out
Here you should never come around
I'm gonna wind you up, turn you on
And run you right out of this town

Abilities: Thanks to her background in law, Patience has made it her life’s work to research everything and anything pertaining to the supernatural, especially werewolves and other 'shapeshifters.' Through this tenacious need to understand the thing that possessed her, she’s also made various contacts with shamans, witch doctors and various other ‘magical’ humans around the world, all so she could learn to make charms to ward off 'evil supernaturals.'
Also, thanks to her run-in with the local werewolf community, Patience has the ability to change into the form of a larger-than-normal wolf when the moon is full. She's allergic to silver, can heal quicker and run faster than the average human...and can knock back plates full of steak without gaining a pound. It's the only upside, according to her.
Personality:
Earlier in life, Patience could only be described as being a tenacious little female bulldog who could bite a person’s head off with a handful of words. She was a hard ass in the courtroom, tough as nails in her personal life and tended to push people away like they had the plague. Today, she still has the wit of an angry fishwife, as well as the language skills to boot, but is much more mild. Thanks to certain traumatic events, she’s very easily thrown into panic attacks, which always result in bouts of self hatred, if she’s around other people. She’s agoraphobic, nyctophobic, and obsessed with locks. At the same time, she tries to be as helpful as she can to the local Hunter community and has been known to go days without sleeping, if only to provide research and/or charms to them.

Bio:
As a natural go-getter, Patience had always been one who strived to be the best at everything. School, clubs, friends; she pushed herself to be the best at anything and at an early age, knew that she was going somewhere.
Graduating top of her class at Harvard Law, she went straight into a top five firm, on the fast track to becoming the youngest partner in their history. In the courtroom, she was a demon; a hard ass, detail-obsessed defense attorney who put everything she had into the cases she won. Quickly becoming one of New York’s most sought-after attorney’s, her life was perfect.
One night, after a bout of ex-husband brought on guilt, Patience decided to take her six year old son out to the park after work. She hadn't really spent much time with him, now that she'd made partner of her law firm, and thought a little outing after dinner would be fun. So, hand in hand, little Joey skipped happily next to her, chattering on about what he'd done in school. For the first time in a very long time, she felt absolutely relaxed. God, but she loved her little boy.
Neither one of them noticed the hulking figure that peered over at them through Central Park's many bushes. In the blink of an eye, what had been the first family night they'd had since Joey was in diapers turned into a blood bath. To this day, Patience doesn't remember most of what happened in the park. Just the hospital...and the fact that her little boy didn't make it.
Her wounds were suspicous; bites that ran along her arm, as if something tried to gnaw on the bone. A few weeks later, however, when the moon turned full and she woke up naked in a neighbor's front yard, she knew it was more than that. What happened directly after her change is unknown; Patience Marcone disappeared from New York after giving notice to her firm.
For about a year, she wandered around the United States looking for information; for a cure for the 'affliction' her attacker had forced upon her. She hated the fact that she had to change into the monster that killed her son during each full moon, and came up with the idea to expose all supernaturals to the world's eye. Revenge is her only goal in life now.
Currently in Hollywood, California, Patience is on the trail of a particularly powerful family of 'wolf shapeshifters.' She wants to gather as much information on them as she could and try to understand their world.
So she could bring it down.
