kate Beckinsale Underworld Wallpaper Biography
As revealed in the first & second films, Selene was born to a Hungarian family. She is estimated to have been born around the year 1383.
Selene's father was approached by a powerful Lord-&-general named Viktor, with a commission to design-&-build a prison. According to the novelizations, Selene's father was well-known as both a Master mason-&-smith; and that Viktor's commission had involved the excavation of a new dungeon-&-prison under a fortress of Viktor's, as well as striking two unique keys for one cell in particular. Selene was around 6-years-old at the time when her father started work on the prison, and 7-years-old when he finished.
Around seven-years later, at around the age of 13-14-years-old, Selene became an aunt to her older sister's twin daughters.
During the Winter of Lucian's escape, about 6-years-later, Viktor feared that Lucian may know of William, the progenitor of all werewolves, (given that Lucian, whenever he knew it or not, was now holding one of the keys to William's prison): To keep the secret of the location of William's prison from ever becoming known to Lucian, Viktor personally killed everyone involved in the construction of the prison, and anyone who may have been-to or seen the fortress. One night, he prowled onto the farm of the Selene's father and family, and killed and fed upon them one-by-one. When he came across Selene, however, he found that he 'could not bear the thought of draining [her] dry', (as Craven described it,) '[Selene], who reminded him so much of his precious Sonja'. According to the Underworld: Evolution novelization, Selene was still 19 years old when Viktor turned her.
That night he turned her into a vampire, leading her to belive that the culprits of her family's murders were Lycans; she was led to believe that Viktor had saved her from Lycans he claimed to have been tracking and led him to her family's farm; and that with the strength of a vampire, she could avenge them all: After Lycans had purportedly killed her family, Selene was the only one left alive who had walked through the corridors of the fortress, as Viktor believed that she would have been much too young to remember where exactly the fortress' location was.
She would go-on to become a Death Dealer, fighting against the Lycans for vengeance on the atrocities she believed they had committed against her family; for the centuries that followed, (the better part of a thousand years,) she would serve under Viktor with blind loyalty, remaining in the dark that her entire family had been slain by none other than Viktor himself; and that Viktor had only let her live because of her resemblance to his deceased daughter, though Viktor grew to love her as his own through the centuries.
On Viktor's orders, Selene would exile Andreas Tanis, the Coven's Official Historian. At some point, she would also become the unwilling object of Kraven, the Coven's regents romantic interests.
Underworld
After a confrontation with the Lycan hitman Raze, she discovered what was supposedly a Lycan lair. She was angry when Kraven dismissed her claims, not knowing that Kraven was in league with the Lycan leader Lucian in a bid to take over the control of the vampire realm from the Elders.
She tracked down Michael Corvin, who she believed the Lycans had an interest in. Against the sacred rules of The Vampire Covenant, she and Michael, who was infected with the lycanthropy virus, fell in love.
She awakened Viktor from his deep slumber, believing that only he has the power to deal with the conspiracy between Kraven and Lucian. She then led a mass assault on the Lycans' underground bunker.
After Michael was shot by Kraven, Selene was forced to infect Michael with her vampire strain, thus making him the first hybrid, a Lycan dominant hybrid. She also learned the truth about her family's killer from Kraven, and she struck Viktor down while the Elder was preoccupied with fighting Michael. She then retrieved Sonja's pendant, carrying on her legacy.
Underworld: Evolution
In Underworld: Evolution, after Viktor's death, Selene and Michael went on the run from both Lycans and Vampires. They were confronted by Marcus, the last surviving Vampire Elder. He was now a Vampire-Dominant Hybrid, due to the blood of Lycan scientist Singe, which had seeped into his chamber. As Marcus attacks her, Michael intervenes and battles him to protect her.
After narrowly escaping Marcus and the sunlight, Selene and Michael take refuge in a warehouse and start a sexual relationship. Selene also finds that she has seen the pendant that Marcus was trying to get, when she was a child. In order to find out why Marcus was after the pendant, she sought out Andreas Tanis. Tanis told her the truth about her family's slaughter, (they were killed after Lucian began his revolution to keep William from being freed,) and revealed to her that, contrary to popular belief, Marcus, not Viktor, is the original vampire.
He then set up a meeting for her and Michael with Alexander Corvinus, Marcus's father and the first true immortal. Selene was angered at Alexander for not removing the threat his sons, Marcus and William, posed long ago. Alexander retorted by asking her if she would murder her own son. An interruption by Marcus, in which Michael is seemingly killed, also results in Selene's memories of the fortress to be revealed to Marcus through her blood. Alexander, dying from his son's attack, told Selene that the only way to defeat Marcus and William would be to drink his legendary immortal blood, adding that she would become "The Future". Selene gained greater strength and new powers from Alexander's blood.
She and a squad of Alexander's Cleaners, (who, like Micheal, are Alexander's descendants through his third son,) invaded William's dungeon, trying to stop the threat. They arrived too late, however, and Selene was forced to fight Marcus. Marcus was shocked by smelling his father's blood coursing through Selene's veins. Locking Marcus in William's dungeon, Selene discovered that William had infected all surviving members of the six Cleaners escorting her, all of which have become Lycans themselves.
On the verge of being overwhelmed she was saved by Michael, who was revived by his Hybrid powers and the helicopter the Cleaners used-which provided support fire with a machine gun until Marcus pulled it out of the sky, causing it to crash and kill the last two Cleaners but leaving its blades spinning.
Selene fought Marcus once more, and the Elder drove his wing talon through Selene's chest. Selene, empowered by Alexander's blood, tore away the talon and drove it up Marcus's skull before throwing him into helicopter blades and killing him. After Selene defeats Marcus, and Michael defeats William, sunlight lands on Selene's arm, showing that Alexander's blood has taken away the vampiric weakness to sunlight.
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Selene briefly appears at the end of Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, which was also the opening scene of the first Underworld, with the audio from the scene where Kraven tells Selene that it was Viktor who murdered her family, rather than the Lycans, and that Viktor spared her because she reminded him of the daughter he condemned to death; Selene replies to Kraven, "Lies."
Underworld: Awakening
In Underworld: Awakening, Selene escapes imprisonment to find herself in a world where humans have discovered the existence of both Vampire and Lycan clans, and are conducting an all-out war to eradicate both immortal species.[3] However, Selene and two of her allies; David, (a young vampire,) and Detective Sebastian, (who lost his wife after being discovered as a vampire), discover a hidden conspiracy from rogue members of the Lycan clan within the humans' war against both clans, and also finds that she has mothered a child with Michael, Eve, who was born during Selene's suspended animation.
Despite never had a chance to know each other since Eve's birth, Selene ultimately affectionately bonds with her daughter. Selene battles to rescue Eve and Michael, facing a 'Super Lycan', with abilities similar to her own including incredible healing abilities and an immunity to silver. Eventually Selene kills the Super Lycan, and rescues Eve, who kills the Lycan doctor in charge, but when they go to rescue Michael, (who Selene had found and weakened the cryo tank of earlier,) they find that he has already escaped and are unable to locate him, but Selene knows he will be hunted like Eve was.
David also offers her the opportunity of returning to the vampire coven, in hopes she would consent to train a new generation of Death Dealers in response and in offensive against both the humans and Lycans threats, as many of their numbers are either in hiding from their enemies or dead.
