Jane Freede

Jane Freede (nee Lawrence)(c. 263 - November 11th 311) was Beatrice Freede's mother.

Early life
Jane grew up on Port Lane with her parents and younger sister, Catherine. She attended Bromshire School for Girls. At some point in her youth, around the age of 12, Jane went fishing with her sister, where her parents took photographs of her. Jane had an adventurous look about her when she was younger, and was seen in the photo laughing with her hands in the air.

Adult life
Jane married Stuart Freede when she was eighteen, and with him had four children: Marie,  Grace,  Lucy and  Beatrice. After surgery, Jane became sullen and quiet. Being influenced by her husband, Jane became obsessed with obeying rules. Her relationship with her youngest daughter, therefore, was very strained: Beatrice had no regard for the rules and Jane feared this would get the whole family in trouble. Despite her seemingly stern and rule-obsessed appearance, Jane cared very much for her family, in particular her younger sister, Catherine, who she visited at the unit frequently. She did not tell her children about the existence of her sister, though, and simply told them she died in a car crash with their uncle. Jane agreed to have her youngest daughter referred to a correction school when her behaviour reached a critical level. This put their relationship under even more pressure, and they rarely saw one another. However, Jane maintained a strong relationship with her other three daughters and her granddaughter, Emily, who she adored. Jane was deeply ashamed that her daughter was taking part in the rebellion. When her daughter showed up seeking refuge, Jane asked why, and after Beatrice explained that they wanted to take her into surgery, Jane refused to help her and called the police.

Death
After Beatrice appeared at Jane's door, Jane called the police and they quickly arrived, though Beatrice had already left. As a form of blackmail, Jane and her entire family were murdered in front of a camera whilst Beatrice watched. In the recording, Jane explained that the only reason she called the police was because she wanted no harm to come to the rest of the family at the expense of Beatrice's actions. She was shot in the head and killed.

Personality & traits
Jane was a reserved woman who obeyed the law at all costs, even ringing the police on her own daughter. However, underneath it all, she cared deeply for her family and would do anything to protect them. She was also kind, as she visited her sister every week in the correction unit until her death.

Physical appearance
Jane was very pretty, with dark skin and warm brown eyes. She was slim and tall, like her daughter.
