Santiaga 

Species: Gypsy

Background

Gender: Female

Type of Character: Vampire

Character Description:

Santiaga is Spanish through and through. She is tall with ripe lush curves. Raven black hair and matching eyes. Her skin remains dusky even in vampiric life due to her heritage.

Mental Description:
She is a woman who loves to have fun; she is always seeking some new thrill, a new mark. She doesn’t take grief from anyone and is quick to defend her fellow Romani. She can have a hot temper however, and when it flashes, it burns hot and she becomes like a fighting tigress, taking out those who have hurt her or her friends. She is slight of hand and is quick to pinch something but will usually give it back, all in good fun. She likes to drink even though it does nothing for her, but merely missing the burn that she had found as a mortal so long ago.

Background

She was born in Barcelona, Spain to a large family of all men, her mother having died when she was born. She was spoiled by her Father and many brothers, quickly finding a way to survive among them, by being totally feminine. She learned how to use her feminine charms to get what she wanted all throughout life and turned that charm towards other men as she got older. Her Father, worried about what kind of woman she was turning out to be quickly married her off to a nearby land owner, hoping the man’s age and experience would set her on the correct path in life, plus by merging the two families, the man had more power than he did before. She married him as it was her Father’s request and moved into the large house down the way a bit. She soon grew bored of being a wife and hating that she did not have the freedom she once did, she soon took lovers to pass the time away.

One night at the summer celebration, she met a man who did not fall for her charms as they danced. This drove her wild with desire and longing to make sure he fall to her feet bowing down to her wishes, she doubled her efforts to charm him, but to no avail, or so she had thought. Marco Cordova, as she found out later was his name, was quite intrigued by this fiery woman. He did not seek her for his Mistress but wanted her by his side, for eternity. He watched her for months, amused by her antics and her obvious frustration as he seemed to not even glance her way. He learned her routine and that of her husband, waiting until the right time. One night, Marco appeared before their bed, looking down at them. Her eyes flying open not knowing why, let out a startled cry of shock and surprise, only to have a hand clamped hard against her mouth. Surprised more by his speed, she merely laid there quietly as he whispered his plans for her into her ear. Her eyes drifting over to her husband; she watched as Marco drank from her husband, enthralling him when he awoke, watching him settle back down, her eyes wide. Then Marco gave her his dark kiss, making him truly hers before the dawn, and teaching her how to feed, as they drank from her husband, until he was almost dead. They slipped away into the night, and she was not seen again by her family.

Not long afterwards Marco was killed by a rogue vampire and she quickly became known in the vampire circles as Countess Seduction. Using all that she knew to seduce men into her lair, where she would drain them and dispose of their bodies before daylight. This lasted for several centuries until she grew tired of it, and changed her name to Santiaga Cordova and tried to live a normal life with the Romani she found traveling throughout Europe, learning all that she had not learned in the short time she had with her Sire.

Hearing the rumors of the island, Santiaga made her way there, using old connections she had there on the island. She currently resides on the island, having made new friends with some of the local Romani.
