Biography
Early years
Juni Swan was born Nadia Moore, in the early part of the twentieth century. From an early age, Nadia's parents noticed that she had the ability to accurately predict the future, and during her childhood, she travelled around, gaining money using her powers. Beranabus found out about her, and kidnapped her in June of 1929, so that he could make her one of The Disciples, in the hope that her gift would give them an advantage against the Demonata. Beranabus is a character from Darren Shan 's The Demonata series Events in June Madaraka Day June 1 to commemorate when Kenya gained internal self-rule Year 1929 ( MCMXXIX) was a Common year starting on Tuesday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. The Disciples are a fictional group of Mages from Darren Shan 's The Demonata series Nadia gained an undying hatred for Beranabus because of this, which she retained even after she had travelled with the Disciples for years.
Nadia's visions of the future are never specific, but often still helpful. In Demon Thief, she told Beranabus that a piece of the Kah-Gash would be found soon, and that somebody from the group would die (this turns out to be Raz). Although many people have claimed to be able to foretell the future, Nadia states that beings who truly possess the gift are extremely rare, even more so than magicians. Although in the book Kernel is able to lead her to freedom in the human world, Beranabus makes Kernel open a portal so that Nadia can be taken back into the Demonata universe. Nadia hated Beranabus even more for it.
When The Disciples arrive at the castle of Lord Loss in Demon Thief, Nadia makes a deal with Lord Loss that, if he will stage her death and relieve her of Beranabus, she will use her abilities to help him. This deal goes through, and Nadia is presumed dead by all the Disciples, except for Kernel, to whom she reveals her secret when she saves him from dying in Lord Loss' magical chessboard. Chess is a recreational and competitive Game played between two players. Nadia claims to Kernel that she doesn't hate any of the Disciples except for Beranabus, but will still fight on the side of Lord Loss.
In Blood Beast Juni says she once had a baby, but he died. Blood Beast is the fifth book in Darren Shan 's The Demonata series and was released 4th June 2007 She also says she was at the concert that Dervish was at, possibly the one demons attacked in Demon Thief. This is almost definitely a lie because she spent most of her time between Demon Thief and Slawter in the Demonata universe. Slawter is the third book in the The Demonata series (4th chronologically written by Darren Shan. There is also the possibility that the baby was Lord Loss', as she states her love for him in Demon Apocalypse.
Nadia is distantly related to the Gradys, and hence descended from the Demonata. In Demon Apocalypse, Bec suggests that this ancestry may be the reason Nadia possesses special powers.
As Juni Swan
As evidenced in Demon Thief, Nadia changes into a swan demon after helping Kernal in the chessboard. Swans are Birds of the family Anatidae, which also includes geese and Ducks Swans are grouped with the closely related geese in She changes her name to Juni Swan and tries to help Lord Loss capture Grubbs, Bill-E and Dervish. Grubitsch "Grubbs" Grady is the main character in The Demonata series by Darren Shan. There is also a section of Demon Thief which describes how She stands and looks at the sky. Lightly runs a finger across her cheeks, caressing the spots and acne scars. Acne vulgaris (commonly called acne) is a Skin disease caused by changes in the Pilosebaceous units (skin structures consisting of a Hair follicle "It's warm. Maybe it's June. That's my favourite month. It's when I was born and when Beranabus took me. . . . . I was a plain child, dowdy. But my father said I was an ugly duckling, that I'd turn into a beautiful, glamorous swan one day. The Ugly Duckling (Danish Den grimme Ælling) is a Fairy tale by Danish Poet and Author Hans Christian Andersen "
Juni Swan is Davida Haym's assistant on the set of Slawter, but she is really working for Lord Loss. Her job is to make sure the children on the set are being treated well. She pretends to join forces with Dervish and Grubbs to save those on the set from being massacred by Lord Loss and his familiars (summoned by Davida Haym), but is actually planning to turn Grubbs and Dervish over to Lord Loss just as they are within sight of their goal. However, she is knocked unconscious by a demon before she can do so. Dervish falls for her during the book, and Juni mentions at the end that she has strong feelings for him as well. However, she kills one of the leaders of the massacre plot (pretending to be doing it to avenge those who were killed in Slawter, but actually because he knew of her true allegiances) and leaves in the night, leaving a note saying she has to think about things and that Dervish shouldn't search for her.
In Blood Beast, she reappears as Grubbs' school councillor and continues her relationship with Dervish, as well as helping him in his attempt to cure Grubbs of the curse. Blood Beast is the fifth book in Darren Shan 's The Demonata series and was released 4th June 2007 A curse (also called execration) is any manner of Adversity thought to be inflicted by any supernatural power (such as a spell, a Prayer, an Dervish and Juni's relationship becomes more serious and she nearly moves in with him. When Grubbs becomes a werewolf and kills Ma and Pa Spleen, she convinces him to board a plane with her, where she summons Lord Loss and several of his familiars to kill him, thus revealing herself to be in league with the demon master. See also Lycanthropy (disambiguation Werewolves, also known as lycanthropes, are mythological or folkloric humans with the ability to Overview Fixed-wing aircraft range from small training and recreational aircraft to Wide-body aircraft and military cargo aircraft. The demons kill the plane's passengers, but Grubbs escapes following the arrival of Beranabus.
In Demon Apocalypse, Grubbs discovers that Juni had actually killed Ma and Pa Spleen, and convinced him that he was a murderer. Darren Shan released the title of the book on the 29th of September 2007 at the Baeth Festival of Children's Literature Later in the story, she is thought by Beranabus to be the key to opening the portal to the demon universe that would lead to the "demon apocalypse" the title of the book suggests. Beranabus, along with Grubbs and Kernel, are tasked with killing her before she opens the portal for the demons to slip through. Beranabus uses a spell to reveal her true form, and she is shown to actually be Nadia Moore, first seen in Demon Thief. She seduces Dervish, who she had previously tied up, but Dervish does not fall for this, and impales her on a stalagmite in the cave, killing her. A stalagmite (from the Greek stalagma ("Σταλαγμίτης" "drop" or "drip" is a A cave is a natural underground void large enough for a human to enter Lord Loss shows affection for Juni, screaming "My Swan!", and taking her body with him after this confrontation. This is the only occasion in which Lord Loss has shown any sign of affection towards a human. It is implied that Lord Loss and Juni had a romantic attachment towards one another, as Juni states her love for him before she dies, and he, in turn, calls her his "sweet swan". After her death, Lord Loss states that killing her makes him even more determined to see the Gradys suffer.
In Death's Shadow Juni Swan returns, as a hideous, deformed monster, leading a demon attack on Earth in a hospital and attempting to kill Bec and Sharmila, before they are rescued by Dervish Grady. Death's Shadow is the first episode of the second season of Midsomer Murders and the sixth episode overall A hospital is an institution for Health care providing treatment by specialised staff and equipment and often but not always providing for She escapes and later appears on a ship with the demon Cadavar, before escaping through a window along with most of the demons she had brought with her. Cadaver remains behind, and is sacrificed in order to open the portal which releases the Shadow.
Although no direct explanation has been given thus far to her resurrection, the Shadow is revealed to be Death itself by the end of the story, which could possibly have something to do with her escape from death. Her deformed appearance is not explained either, though she states in the story that she is trapped in that form. During the encounter at the hospital, it is stated that her magic has grown stronger in the time since her last appearance.
Her name is derived from Nadia Moore's birth-month (which she states when she and Kernel escape from the demon world) and her demon state ( A swan).
