I'm thinking Alex Patrick, who has always been into fantasy and science fiction joined the SCA and then moved on to a metal weapons group as well doing jujitsu for fitness. Went into the Public Service and became a drone escaping into fantasy books and historical re-enactments as much as possible.

A year ago she was involved in a hostage drama at the local bank, she sought psychiatric counselling because she started having real trouble going out of the house.

The psychiatrist started her talking and thinking about things and even tried a regression. Apparently the recent traumatic experience had only lifted the lid on a whole can of worms. Alex had apparently been witness to abusive behaviour by her mother's boyfriend. Her mother had then disappeared after calling Alex's father to pick her up.

The regression had Alex remembering the attacks and then her mother's boyfriend ringing her father and in her mother's voice telling her father to come round. Then he told her mother if she didn't come he'd take the brat as well.

When Alex's father arrived Alex was seated in front of the TV and her mother has never been seen since. That was 15years ago, when Alex was 12.

The psychiatrist tried to help Alex and to a certain extent did. Alex has quit her job and taken a settlement from the bank since there was a question of negligence raised about their security practices. The money is invested; it should be safe until she can bring her mother back.

There's just one thing that Alex never told the psychiatrist. The boyfriend had pointed ears and pupils like a cat.
