Morticia was born and raised in the city of Ancona. She managed to survive the siege of the city by the Holy Roman Empire, although her parents (and many people around them) did not. It was at this time that she found herself besieged by the restless spirits of the dead, as there were so many who fell in the siege and were not able to be buried for a time that they found themselves drawn to this girl who could see and speak with them. She also managed to draw the attention of Aesclipia of Bonisagus, who had been trapped in the city while conducting business with an agent from the Theban Tribunal. Aesclipia could tell almost at a glance that the child was Gifted, and Blatantly so, and took her as her apprentice to Literatus.
