Profile


"Nevermind, too soon. What I mean is… I revived you from the dead with magic. Except I did it wrong, so now you’re a zombie instead of a human. And now you’re in Asphodel, where I find my work. There are other people like us here. You’ll be safe.”

After being turned into a vampire in 1978, Carmen became interested in the undead and decided to take up necromancy. By the mid-80s, they felt they had a good grip on the basics and decided to move to the monster city to pursue it as a career. Although a bit rocky at first, they were eventually hired at The Forever Young Night Club and are now rather successful. Carmen's work often includes bringing ghosts back into the corporeal world by giving them a physical form that can only be seen by other monsters. If done incorrectly, this may result in the zombification of the client, but they haven't made that mistake in a long time - since they first moved in and attempted to revive their old friend Joel. They're still friends, but it served as a serious wakeup call. Their proudest achievement is reviving Emilie, who had previously only been able to speak through a Oujia board. Whenever they need assistance or advice, they consult her and Claire due to the pair's history in speaking to and befriending ghosts. 

They are a big fan of The Cure and have been since they were human.

They're dating Uma and frequently go to visit her at work at The Blood Bank even if they don't plan on buying anything. When they do, though, it's usually a black cherry or sometimes blue raspberry-flavored blood drink.

Phoebe & Dallas (& possibly another employee who specifically does this) keep watch on nearby hospital records to see if any supernatural events happen & they need to send Carmen in (& possibly the monster hospital staff, prob depends on the situation).

BEHIND-THE-SCENES TRIVIA

- Her hairstyle is based on Uma Thurman's Poison Ivy.
