[hider=Cian][center][img]https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/516x667q70/922/Xkohlr.png[/img][/center][/hider]
This girl reminds you of a dangerous spider. She has almond-shaped eyes the color of blood. Her fine, straight, neck-length hair is the color of fine china, and is worn in a severe style. She is tall and has a lithe build. Her skin is a bluish-gray. She has thick eyebrows, pointed ears, and thin lips hidden by an iron half-mask covering the lower half of her face. It keeps her from feeding or talking above a whisper, and it locks in the back.

On her chest is an ancient slave brand, marking her as the property of House Donovani.

Cian wears a strangely repellant metal seal as a pendant on a necklace. A hard tug on the necklace will cause it to break away, she is forbidden from removing the seal herself.

Her wardrobe is a dark hooded woolen cloak, leather armor styled in some ancient pattern, and an adventurer's satchel, with pockets along its wide strap.

[color=#ff0000][b] Personality: [/b][/color]
Cian is lazy and will argue about everything, but is always concerned about her appearance immaculate and keeping things organized. 
[hider=Background:]
Born to Brianan and Saibh Duanei when the warmth was just returning to the world, her father worked as a gardener to a wealthy family. Previous in life, he had been a sea captain with many jilted ex-lovers. 

When Cian was ten, her parents discovered her ability to mimic other people's voices, providing some hours of entertainment.

She was fourteen when an occasional night visitor of her father's pressed a map and a note into her hands to give to him, telling her he would be in the ruins outside of town. On reading the note, Brianan turned pale, then gave her some coins to take to him, and bolted as soon as she was out of sight. When Cian gave the man the coins, town guards rushed in and captured them both. She was hauled in front of the sheriff, who ordered her enslaved for aiding a pirate.

At the slave market, she was surprised to be purchased by an elegant woman, Mor Donovani, who she soon discovered was the chief advisor to the king. On her arrival to her house in the capital, she learned she was to be an attendant to the courtesans,  until she was of age to join them. Part of that included telling Mor everything she could gleam from the guests. Impressed with her attention to details, she had her taught as a scribe, so she could write up the reports from the courtesans.

When she became one of the courtesans, a frequent guest, however, tormented her whenever he visited. One night, she struck back at Neasan Hyland and attempted to escape, but was easily captured and beaten by the guards. Mor was furious, and had her branded on the chest, forever marking Cian as her property. 

After she recovered, Mor escorted Cian personally to the rooms of Dughlas Dubhghlass, a very important guest. However, Dughlas was not desiring companionship, he was merely... [b][i][color=#ff0000]thirsty[/color][/i][/b]. He turned her, that night, gifting the young vampire back to her mistress. 

A witch in debt to Mor placed a geas on Cian so she would obey Mor or her lieutenants' commands, and provided the Seals of the Dead God to keep Cian weak and manageable.

However, in letting her resume her 'duties', her first guest was Neasan, eager to get revenge for the previous visit.  He made the mistake of yanking off her necklace with the seal and discarding it. Attendants before dawn found him drained to the last drop and Cian passed out in a stupor. 

An iron casket was built to hold Cian, and she was placed into an unmarked crypt in the city cemetery. A servant would come once a week to feed her blood, pouring it into a small bowl on the lid that would drip it into her mouth.

Occasionally, she would be released by Mor to attack one of her enemies, only to be ordered back into the crypt. 

After Mor's death, Cian's existence was almost forgotten except by the servants who still carried out the ancient orders. One tried pouring milk into her dripping bowl, only to hear her screaming and moaning in agony. Fearing he would be punished, he cut his hand and squeezed his own blood into the bowl.

Hearing the cries coming from the crypt, three drunken thugs jumped the servant as he exited, only to find the casket inside. Believing it held treasure, they managed to break the locks of the chains and pushing the lid to the side, they found what they thought at first was a shrunken corpse. 

Then it opened its eyes.

After draining the three men dry, Cian once again fell into stupor, aided no doubt by the alcohol heavy in their blood, so it was easy for the servant to get her back into the iron coffin and use the broken locks to secure it, before running back to the house to tell the young lord what had happened.

When Cian awoke, restored and refreshed, she was already in the Maw, some two hundred years since the passing of her mistress. At least she was free of that casket, except no bed no matter how soft felt right....[/hider]
[color=#ff0000][b] Talents: [/b][/color]
[hider=Supernatural Strength] With the strength of five men, Cian is able to lift a horse, or she can punch her way through a stone wall.[/hider]
[hider=Hypnotic Eyes] If she locks eyes with another, Cian can slowly pull them into a light hypnotic state, able to obey basic commands. However, if contact is lost before that state is achieved, or the subject is shaken or experiences sharp pain, the hypnosis is broken and they wake up.[/hider] 
[hider=Poison bite] A vampire's bite can quickly numb and paralyze their victim, leaving them helpless as the vampire feeds.[/hider]
[hider=Immunity to Disease]They're unaffected by viruses or bacteria, but it can make the blood taste strange. The black plague gives blood a smoky flavor.[/hider]
[Hider=Regeneration]A vampire can recover from even grave injuries. Small injuries may be completely healed in a few days, a stake in the heart a month or two. Eyes and limbs may take a couple years. It's why they do not age.[/hider]


[color=#ff0000][b] Flaws: [/b][/color]
[hider=Geas]A word in an ancient language was engraved into the lid of her iron coffin. On hearing that word, she must obey any command given to her. However, pronunciation is important.[/hider]
[hider=Sunlight] Exposure to full sunlight, a vampire's flesh will start to smoke. After a few moments, their flesh catches fire, burning them to ash if they are unable to find shelter or a body of water. However, if a little blood was to fall on the ash, they will be revived. Some vampires keep a small vial of blood on their person for just this purpose.[/hider]
[hider=Blood]While a vampire can hibernate for many years after a heavy feeding, an active vampire must feed on a pint of blood at least once a week to maintain its strength. Blood from a heavy drinker or habitual drug user will affect the vampire as well. If starved for blood, a vampire can become a wild thing, driven by its unquenchable thirst. The smell of blood can be mildly intoxicating, one has to guard their reaction around minor cuts.[/hider]
[hider=Food]While a vampire can tolerate water, wine, tea, and coffee, most food tastes disgusting to them. For the unprepared, they can become violently ill.[/hider]
[hider=Dairy]Lactose intolerant.[/hider]

[color=#ff0000][b] Equipment: [/b][/color]
[hider=Seal of the Dead God] A small medallion that resembles (yet isn't) lead, bearing the ancient mark of the Dead God. It feeds constantly on magic, or perhaps the soul? It makes the skin crawl if one gets too close. To wear one is an almost unbearable torture. There were three on Cian's iron casket. One is enough to make her as weak as a child.[/hider]
[hider=Iron Casket] This heavy metal coffin has chains to keep it locked up, preventing Cian's escape and allowing her to be safely transported. A shallow bowl in the lid allows blood to drip into her mouth.[/hider]
[hider=leather armor]It is simply boiled leather, patterned after what she was wearing in the casket.[/hider]

[color=#ff0000][b] Miscellaneous: [/b][/color]
[hider=Stake]It's often believed that a wooden stake driven through the heart of a vampire will kill it. As they're undead, you've only pissed them off. Do you know how hard it is to find a seamstress or tailor willing to work after dark?[/hider]
[hider=Mirror]Vampires can see themselves in mirrors - they just hate them. If the vampire has cast a glamor on itself to hide, their actual appearance is revealed when glanced at in a mirror. One of the forgotten reasons why mirrors are often placed in entryways.[/hider]
[hider=Crusnik (Krsnik)] Some vampires believe themselves to be on the top of the food chain. They're not. A Crusnik is a type of vampire that preys on vampires.[/hider]

I should say, what I have here are the restrictions Cian must work under. Technically, she's still a young vampire.

Let me know if this is okay?
