She won't tell anybody her real name, because she believes that real names hold magical power and that if someone speaks your real name they have power over you.
She was sold into slavery as a young child and raised to be a vampire hunter in Russia. During her apprenticeship she was molested by her teacher, who went mad and revealed his plan to her: He was going to use his knowledge of vampire hunting to become a vampire himself, and she would be his vampire bride. Knowing he had gone insane, she killed her teacher.
Her classmates at the hunters' guild were all children as well. They didn't understand or believe why she killed their teacher, so she had to flee. The guild chased her across the globe and she was forced to kill most of its members. One of her classmates, named Sakura, became a vampire while chasing orchid around.
Sakura and her sire Liam cornered orchid one night and did battle with her. Orchid only had one silver crossbow bolt left. Liam picked her up and began to drain her blood. The cunning hunter fired the crossbow into Sakura's heart. Liam cared deeply for Sakura and dropped orchid and rushed to Sakura's aid. His venom had infected orchid.
Orchid fled but was found that very night by Ilya, a vampire who had been warring with Liam over the territory nearby. Ilya let orchid live but beat, tortured and starved her for his own amusement. Liam discovered this and, after their final battle in which he killed Ilya, he spared orchid's life.
Free to go, she did not know what to do. She was slowly becoming a vampire. Shadow removed the vampiric intrusion and gave her a new chance at life.
Orchid does not trust anybody. She is skeletal in appearance from her mistreatment and starvation at the hands of Ilya. She has dark circles under her eyes. She is tall and always frowning. Her skin is papery thin and white. Her hair is long, wispy and black.
Paranoid, hateful and bitter, she must make a new life for herself.
