Extremely interested...but out of said interest, will this be based on the classic version of Dracula? Bram Stoker's? That's pretty critical in my intention of joining or not. Passionate about the novel, not a fanatic about the new adaption, or very familiar with said novella's many other movie adaptations.

Renee, was, previously, a common shade of Caucasian, if that what you want to call it. Not tan, not in the least bit. But not translucent, vein printed white either. Just…balanced. Her eyes were a warm shade of blue, her hair stark black, and straight to a point, though if you asked Renee (and referred to the chart of hair textures), Oriental straight would be too straight to describe it. After her transformation, her skin slowly paled, to a more Dracula-esque tone. By that time, she had cut her hair quite short. 

[b]BIO/HISTORY[/b]
The later years of Renee’s previous life was one burrito of strange events after the other. But, for consistency’s sake, she likes to recount her life from the very beginning, lackluster childhood and all.

Renee was born to your nuclear American family; overtly polite parents, blinding blond haired brother, and dull little brunette sister. Pure blueblood American, she couldn’t speak of a family tree that went further than the golden soil of the U.S. of A. Where everyone else had the blessing of speaking about their Italian roots, or their English roots, Renee only had Great-Great-Grandpappy Johnson (on her mother’s side) who was theorized to have moved up from Ireland (on account of his fire red hair) to New York as a chubby balding, roll faced man, likely with roots in England on account of that out of place last name. All theory, of course. 

Renee was the oldest of the three siblings born to the Miller family; all expectations were dumped on her, from high grades, to stellar good looks, to sports skills. Renee promptly decided, by the time she was eight, that she definitely did not fit the bill. Average in class at best, tom-boyish and dirty, and with little interest in excelling in the physical department, Renee quickly became the blend-in-with-the-crowd child, and didn’t bloom into any full potential till the beginning of college.

And so, between elementary and high school, Renee Miller melted into the crowd and did very little things of significance. Aside from struggling with boys, struggling with grades, and struggling with typical teenage obstacles, Renee at the very least made a good dose of friends, had a successful career in remaining under the dean’s radar, and never had a day of detention in her life. 

She did service in high school, volunteered at the local library, and disappointed her parents on the daily as her youngest sister excelled in the sixth grade, farther than Renee or her blonde brother ever had done when [i]they[/i] had been in the sixth grade. But, then and again, her brother was running off playing American Football, exceeding six feet tall, and lifting weights a 1 mile per second. So, as usual, Renee faded into the background at family get together’s, giving her talented siblings the limelight whenever possible, and avoiding the prickling suspicions by Aunts’ and Uncles’ that she was a high school dropout.

Finally, College reared its beautiful head and Renee found her place in the world. She quickly jumped into the “real world”, securing a part time job at the Library, and focusing her energy on the studies she believed would push her into success. And for a long while, she was climbing the ladder, reaching those heights. She changed her image; maybe, not exactly to sexy confidence, but she could be called beautiful at the least. She got A’s and B’s and kept her GPA steady. And, she finally began exercising. (Working out would be too strong of a word…more like running on the treadmill and taking walks in the park to keep fit.)

Things went weird at graduate school as she continued to work on her English Major. She got a boyfriend; and not just any boyfriend. She’d had boyfriends before. But this was a different type. This was a [i]steady[/i] boyfriend.

Long, painful, story, short, fast forward a year, and you find a pregnant and single Renee taking two semesters off to become the single, struggling mother she never believed she would be. Renee halted school to have and take care of that child. But she didn’t give up. 

Needing a vacation from New York, and fluent in several different languages, Renee decided to splurge and take a trip round the world with her 3 year old baby, Jane. First destination: Transylvania, Romania, beginning of spring. Beautiful, rolling, green hills, nice fresh evergreens, and quaint classic little houses situated on those rolling green hills.

That’s where Renee Miller met Lord Dracula. Old timey and charming, Renee quickly fell into good favor with the cultured man. Their relationship was hypnotic, in a way. It was too easy to like the man, as if Renee weren’t controlling herself. And day by day…things changed. Every day, she would awaken with two holes in her neck. Time went by, and her skin became paler, sickly. Her canines sharpened tremendously, and Renee was ashamed to admit she cut her tongue once or twice on those things. She would have a consistent fever; enough to frighten her half to death. The sickness had already taken her the other half there, after all. The doctor could find nothing, and Renee became dreadfully resigned to her faith. 

All the while, Lord Dracula stood by her side. She couldn't understand his...fascination, so to speak, with her, nor could she comprehend her compelling attraction to that polite well-bred gentleman. But, in the end, who else did she have to count on but fast friend Dracula to take care of little Janie. And…soon enough, she and Mr. Dracula would be closer than ever.

[b]SKILLS[/b]
Has mastery over several languages, and a great grasp on English. She's young, recently turned, and so there's much else that she will still have to learn in the years of life ahead of her.

[b]SPECIALITY POWER[/b]
[i]Speed[/i] – Renee has significant speed, even when in ‘human’ form, which allows her to traverse long distances in short spans of time.

[i]Transfiguration[/i] – With this power, Renee often assumes the forms of animals, popularly, dark colored wolves and horses, as well as spooky little vampire bats. The power can probably be used in many more diverse ways, but she has preference for spooking people with black sharp-fanged wolves. She goes out many-a-night to give a fright to the sorry pedestrians that walk only or in small pairs; find its extremely humorous to watch a man run with a trail of piss leaking down his pants. 

[i]Hypnotism[/i] – (Tell me if this one’s too much; will happily change it.) Renee has the ability to transfix others, though, depending on the person, her influence can be weak or strong. The closer she is, the harder it is to break her control. This is far truer of mortal creatures; humans, animals. Her vampire comrades are much less susceptible to this power, and she can only…seduce them in a way. Tickle their brains. She can’t control them, but the hazy effect it causes them is a nice addition if she needs to make an escape for some reason.

[b]OTHER[/b]
A daughter named Jane Miller. The little girl is only four, and has been hosted with the vampire family since the turn.
