Before Tora was born, Nemesis made the difficult decision in not telling Tora's father about her birth, since she knew that her mortal father would never be able to take properly take care of her. Instead Nemesis had abandon Tora in a nearby orphanage, where she spent the next five years. While there Tora gained a reputation of being a problem trouble, because she would play roughly with the other children, pushing others, and yell when she got anger which was all the time since she would constantly loose her temper. It was because of that reason why the people running the orphanage would sent her to her room, and separate her from the rest of children.

After five years of this they were sick and tired of child, and had decided to send her to different orphanage where the atmosphere were bad behavior was not tolerated, and that punishments for misbehavior was strict and unusual. What the social workers who worked for the orphanage didn't count on was that while they were discussing and making plans for Tora's transfer, that Tora had overheard the conversation, and had decided to run away. Since she didn't want to go to other orphanage, and was miserable there since at this time she wasn't allowed to play with other children, and even when she was allowed they were too afraid her.

So while everyone was asleep she was able to sneaked out of orphanage, and attempted to run away. Only for few hours later she was found by the police, but before she could be taken back to the orphanage the officer had decided to respond to an All-points bulletin where someone was disturbing the peace at a local bar. Once they arrive, two officer went inside to break up a bar fight.

The two officers for the moment forgot that Tora was also with them, and worse yet that they forgot to securely lock, and close the door to the front seat of the police vehicle. A few minutes after they left two out of town men named David Carleson; who at the time was incredibly drunk had decided to play a practical joke by stealing the police vehicle. He noticed that one of the police car's door was open so they went up to the police car, hot wire the car and drove off with Tora still inside.

It didn't take to long for the him to notice there extra passenger, and once that happen he began to sober up pretty fast. Since it dawned on him that he had now just kidnapped a kid. David then asked Tora where her parents were. Which she was refusing to tell him, since she wasn't allowed to talk to stranger. David did get annoyed, but he got an idea and then introduced himself by telling her a fake name. Unfortunately Tora didn't believe him, after several minutes David finally told Tora his name, and in response she told him her name. Soon David ask where her parent were, she told David that she was an orphan. He felt bad for the girl, and had decided to adopt her. Before he can do this he got rid of vehicle, and leave the town with the girl. A year passed by David had ended up adopting Tora, and treating her like a daughter, at least until he met up with his sibling again.

Split

One afternoon while he was visiting with his sibling, both he and his sibling had decided to split in order to keep their children safe since most member of the family were demigods. They decided they would each take their own children and move away from each other. They made this decision to keep them safe. The parents did not want to lose their kids, so they decided not to send them to Camp. The family gave their hugs and said their goodbyes and went their separate ways, trying to get as far away from each other as possible

After the Split

For the next year after separating from his family, David still felt Tora life. He at first try to push the thought in the back of his mind, since he was still getting over the pain of loosing his family. Eventually guilt caught up with him, David knew his other daughter was a demigod he knew at some point in the future she would attract a monster, and if Tora was nearby that she would end of getting hurt. (Since he had no idea that Tora was a demigod) David made the painful decision giving up is adopted daughter to system to which he saved from her.

The day David gave up Tora, she was tears, and begging him not to leave her that she was sorry for whatever she did. His heart broke when he heard Tora's pleas, but he knew he had no choice. He took, and left her at the adoption agency, and never looked back. Lucky for Tora the adoption agency was able to find her a home, to whom were interested in adopting her. The individual who had decided to adopt Tora was a man named Heng Kwan who was a main instructor in a martial arts studio in Battle-view North Dekota.

For a while both Heng and Tora incredibly awkward, and uncomfortable, but over time they did learn to get along. Tora became to realize that Heng was a stern, but fair man to whom she deadly cared about. Heng did have a difficult time expressing the fact that he was proud and honored that Tora was his daughter, which led Tora to believed that she need to do more to earn her right the be his daughter. Regardless of his faults Heng was still her father, and had taught to become a strong, and incredible Martial arts fighter. Tora was also home-school, so any interaction she made with other children her age was through the martial arts school Heng owned, so she didn't have alot of friends. Tora was happy with her life, but soon all that was going to change.

You see David and Joselyn end up tracking Tora down, and trying to convince her to go the family reunion. At first both Heng and Tora refused to let her attend, since he gave up Tora for the adoption, and in her mind was no longer considered family. After some time David was able to convince the two to let Tora attend, but that Heng will be coming along with David. David pointed out he didn't want his sibling finding out he gave up Tora, so she suggested that Heng will stay in the motel, but that she will have to return at 6.

Reunion

In the reunion the Carleson family was telling each other stories about their lives, jokes, and playing around. It did not stay happy for long, when a crazy lady walked slowly from trees and started to attack Matieus. Tora ran up to them and pushed the woman off who then attacked Tora. The lady killed Tora and then it seemed like she came to her senses and she ran away. The family was shaken up and did not know what to do about Tora and Matieus. To make matters worse a group of Scythian Dracanae came out of the trees and started to attack. The adults started to fight them off with weapons that had morphed from watches, rings, and pens, but the kids had no idea what to do. The adults were holding them off but not doing much. A shadow then passed over head. Above them were Pegasi! When they landed teenagers jumped off and started to fight. After about 10 minutes there were many piles of golden dust. The teenagers told the kids they needed to get to Camp Half-Blood. So they took them to camp were they were now reside. They found out that the woman who attacked them was Maya Jenson, a past camper.

As the other kids left, Tora laid abandoned and alone, for a moment it seemed that this is where her place in this world has come to an end. Fortunately for Tora, not everyone had forgotten about her; meanwhile back at the motel room Heng was a nervous wreck waiting for his daughter to arrive

Since Tora hadn't return from the reunion, and he didn't receive any phone calls from her. He then made rash decision to go to the reunion and pick her up, and give David a piece of his mind. By the time he got to reunion, he found that the member of the family were long gone, but that Tora's body remained. He was crushed has he immediately began to cry over his daughter's death. He then pray, and plead to any and all gods that are out their to bring his daughter back.

Fortunately for Heng, Tora's mother had heard his pray, and decided to turn her daughter into a nymph since she was moved by what he had said, and the fact she also didn't want Tora to die. For a few moment a wave of anger surround his daughter, but once it disappeared and his daughter had woken up. Heng was very grateful, and thanked whoever it was that brought her back.This reunion was cut short as Danu Carleson had return, since she felt guilty for leaving her cousin body behind. Only to discover a strange man embracing her. Danu instantly tried to fight the Heng, only find it difficult to land a punch on him, but before the fight could progress further Tora did manage to break it up. Tora was able to explain to Heng that Danu is David's cousin, and had nothing to do with the fact that she got hurt, and told Danu that Heng is her adopted father. At which point Danu became really confused since she thought David was her adopted father, it didn't take along for them to tell Danu how David had put Tora up for adoption after the family split.

They also told Danu of the reason she came to the reunion, and heng told her about how the rock formed around Tora before she woke up. Danu realized that Tora was now a nymph, and began to tell the two about Camp-Halfblood. At first Tora didn't want to go, since it would mean being separated from Heng eventually she was convince by Heng to go to the camp. Since he told her that he would move to nearest town to camp, so that he could be near her, and start a martial arts school there. Tora then agreed to go to camp, and then immediately left with Danu.
