Past Life(Prior to search for knowledge): Analora was born to a small merchant family in 1642. When she was 14, she and her family were attacked by pirates on their way to America on one of her fathers many shipping ventures. Her father and mother were killed by the sword, but Analora was sparred by the captain as he believed her to be a boy.
The captain, otherwise known as Christopher Shaw took analora on as a cabin boy and taught her everything she could ever want to know about sailing, fighting and life. Eventually her secret was found out, but Shaw was unable to bring himself to kill or maroon the girl, so she remained on his ship, and eventually was put in command of her own vessel which she named The Storm Crow.
When Ana was 21 she took a ship bound for Spain, seizing it's treasure. Among the gold and jewels was a small silver necklace, that at the time she had not realized was a special object. She tossed it into a chest and forgot about it for nearly a year, till one day while she was going through her belongings she found it yet again. When she put on the necklace she found that her looks were frozen as a 22 year old. Decades passed yet Ana remained the same, un-aging.
eventually her crew died and piracy became a thing of the past, and Ana and The Storm Crow faded into legend. Wishing to return to her own time after hundreds or years had passed her by, Ana decided to start looking for a way to return her to her own time. Her main objective is to go back to the day she took the Spanish ship and never took the necklace that cursed her to live as an immortal. She began to search the world over, moving from place to place.
She has finally settled in Arizona and taken up teaching as a way to kill time as she hunts for her way back home.
