Pleasantly

Evangeline Marguerite Rothschild

Born in 1972 in Pleasantview. During her childhood Evangeline saw visions of the blessed mother. She's also had "a night of screams." Her parents placed her in the Pleasantview Asylum for the Insane where she spent over two years, fighting the visions and eventually she learned not to tell anyone about them. When she returned home she was sullen and moody. Mostly, she kept to herself.

Several years passed with pleasant visions of the holy mother. Until she went to college. Then the screams started again in her sleep. She started drinking coffee and abusing caffiene pills to keep from sleeping. She is quite possibly the worst insomniac in the world.

She's often been a loner, moving from place to place and never settling down. She writes song lyrics and sells them when she isn't working as a therapist (as she can only take so much).

She met Harper Grace in a doctor's office, trying to get meds for her visions (which by the way, doesn't stop them, just calms her nerves). They hit it off immediately and have been friends since, losing touch from time to time but always reconnecting.

Her nickname is Angel, coined by her dad, Dr. John Rothschild.

She is also a crazy cat person. She has three cats: Leah, Rachel and Dinah. They are loving creatures, all three girls. Dinah is the youngest, an orange, black, and white calico. Rachel is next youngest, a big orange cat. Leah is the eldest, a sleek black cat with white paws.

Angel moved from NYC to Pleasantview to work in the asylum there. It's a strange move since she was a patient there. She met Gray Stone, a favorite author of hers. They became involved and have since married each other. When she sleeps in the same bed as Gray the terrors seem to happen less; he's the best thing that's ever happened to her.
