[edit] Biography
Centuries ago, Amelia was bitten by the first vampire Marcus. She was turned in order to help control the chaos created by Marcus's brother William, the first lycan. William's inability to change back into human form caused trouble among the human society. William's rage could not be controlled, as the lycan virus spread across the land, it turned people into lycans or killed all in its path. Amelia had supported locking William within a coffin-like prison, in a remote place where Marcus could not find him. Capture of William would not have happened without Amelia's help. She became one of the three Vampire Elders, alongside Marcus and Viktor, but somewhat allied with Viktor who sought to undermine Marcus' authority. She did not keep control during her last reign, allowing Lucian to work deals with Tanis for weapons to kill vampires.
During the events of Underworld, she was at the end of her century reign. The Elders had a system to organize their reign of the two great covens. Every century a different elder is awake and reigns over the covens, while the other two remain in a sleeping state. During an elaborate ceremony the next elder is awoken with a small amount of blood from the current one, giving a detailed record of their reign and thus awakening them. Just one day before Amelia was to awaken Marcus, following the order of this chain, lycans ambushed her and her entourage on the train which they took to the ceremony in the mansion. She was bled dry by a lycan henchman named Raze, in Lucian's plot to turn himself into a lycan-vampire hybrid.
