Alaric brought her to his brother's home for the delivery and he delivered a baby girl. Isobel knew it was for the best if she gave up her daughter, she was very heartbroken. She got to name her daughter and then handed her over to Grayson and Miranda. Isobel would always dream that she would one day be able to meet her daughter and tell her who she was.

Later on from her school years she had attended Duke University, ( and met Trudie Peterson) where she studied folklore and parapsychlogy. She met John Saltzman during this tie and they even got married together. He accepted her choice about having no children.

PERSONAITY
She views humans at the most a means to an end to her, as a source of food, entertainment (includiing sexual,) puppets to be robbed of their free will using them as "muscle" against other humans if she wish not to condescend to do it herself. She has no compassion, to Esmeralda. She has a much colder side to herself and a rough feature which she learnt to control while traveling as she needed to look after herself. It is only with her daughter and former husband does she display any affection in any form and it is often fleeting. She shows she never stopped loving her daughter despite leaving her.
