HISTORY||Alexia “Lexi” Branson, was first born into the human world on July 1st, in the year 1659. She lived in a nurturing, vampire free environment since her family was completely oblivious to the existence of supernatural beings. She was a noble woman born in Mystic Falls. At the age of 25 years, Lexi was attacked by a vampire who eventually—deciding it would be more interesting to make her into a vampire herself—turned her for his own sick pleasure.
In 1864, Lexi met Stefan Salvatore—who’d recently been turned into a vampire. He tried to feed on her originally because he couldn’t tell that she wasn’t human. When Lexi realized that Stefan was a Ripper, she decided she had to help him, so she tried to help Stefan get as much of his humanity back as she could. Eventually, it worked. She had to help him once again in 1922 when he got on human blood again, eventually getting him off it sometime around 1935.
Every year since she became friends with him, she’d go and spend the entire day of Stefan’s birthday with him, and they once attended a Bon Jovi concert where they decided their song would be “Wanted, Dead or Alive”.
In 1983, Lexi met a young man named Lee during her travels and turned him after falling deeply in love with him. The two spent everyday together except the days she went to visit Stefan for his birthday each year, one day out of the year that they were apart. When Lexi went to Mystic Falls for Stefan’s 162nd birthday, she met Elena Gilbert there and eventually gave her some relationship advice, saying “When its real, you cant walk away”, relating Elena and Stefan to herself and Lee. Though, she didn’t go back to her lover then. Because of a scheme of Damon Salvatore’s, she was staked and killed.
It wasn’t until after the ghost sighting of Vicki Donovan and Anna in Mystic Falls that Lexi was brought back. The same witch who’d let the ghosts across the veil—the Original witch—cast a resurrection spell to bring Lexi back, as a human. Now, she’s back in Mystic Falls, working as a waitress at the Mystic Grill and interested in working with Damon, Elena and the others to get Stefan back and help him, as she’s done so many times before.

RP SAMPLE||Lexi Branson stood behind the bar counter at the Mystic Grill, a thoughtful and faraway look on her face. She hadn’t been working there long, as a waitress and apprentice bartender, but for the time she had started work in the Grill, she liked it. She was already familiar with the usual crowd of customers; among them Damon and Stefan Salvatore and Elena Gilbert. Though, it wasn’t as nice to have Stefan around anymore. Not when he was on the Ripper phase he was on now. Being compelled by Klaus hadn’t done him any justice either. She missed the old Stefan, the one who she went to that Bon Jovi concert with all those years ago, the one she thought of as her best friend. Who he was recently was a completely different person, one she’d seen only a handful of times.
Lexi had helped Stefan out of his Ripper phase before, several times. But now that he was being compelled by Klaus, she figured it’d be a little harder. He gave up human blood before of his own free will. But Klaus lived off humans and expected Stefan to kill for him, and what better killing tool did a vampire have aside from his own fangs? She remembered when it used to be easier to get a vampire off blood when you were a vampire yourself. All you had to do was over-power them, lock them in a room with no source of human blood and feed them bunnies. But now that she was human, she couldn’t exactly do that without using vervain, and she refused to use that stupid plant against her best friend, regardless of how he was acting lately. She’d just have to rely on Damon to get the blood out of his system.
Damon. The eldest Salvatore brother had been on her good side—for the most part—until he put a nicely shaped piece of wood into her heart when she was a vampire. She kind of gave in and forgave him for it though… If she were in his place, she’d probably have done the same thing at some point in their lives. Despite his former “evil scheme”, he had been trying to keep the townspeople off the Salvatore’s trail and keep them from finding out they were vampires. It was all for the good of surviving. Survival of the fittest wasn’t always fair but it always worked out in the end. Sighing, she grabbed her stuff and went over to a table a young couple had just left, cleaning it up so someone else could occupy it. Now to figure out what to do about Stefan and Klaus…
