Trivia

Elisabeth is called "Leech" by her current lodgers but she doesn't mind that. She is amused by how humans interpret the whole vampirism topic. Elisabeth is up to date with techinal things like PC, cars, phones etc. She is aware that she smells like alcohol and smoke but since she retired she doesn't care.
Even if decades passed since the death of her husband she still loves and misses him deeply. She doesn't like to talk about her past and will shut you up if you try to get something out of her about it. Yes, she sleeps in a coffin, it's a habit.
Elisabeth donates some of her money to research and health organisations.

Elisabeth was born human into a royal vampire family and grew up with all their traditions and morals. At the age of 30 and after giving birth to 3 children she was turned into a vampire herself. [Clan members have to bear at least two children before they will be transformed. Undead can't produce life themselves. The transformation is done by the highest individual of the clan (usually also the oldest). Not beeing allowed to be transformed is seen as a punishment. Members who can't give birth are usually used for "the greater good" of the clan, means they're either kept as attendants, are consumed or traded as slaves. Harsh times.] Elisabeth didn't like her new existance at first but quickly grew fond of of it. She and her family then moved to another shire where relatives just were killed. Power of the county had to be kept by the clan after all. Elisabeth was called "The red baroness of Colmouth" for her attitude of draining enemies by ripping of their head. She also was known for slavery but Elisabeth never treated them too badly. Together with her husband William she ruled several years over their shire. When her family was murdered by vampire hunters, Elisabeth only could flee. Her castle was burned down and the remaining land was given to village people. Full of hate she went on rampage against all humans in the shire. However they quickly gathered troops to fight back and Elisabeth retreated and hide.

Secretly she built up a new existance, hiding her true self as good as possible. She traveled a lot and got in touch with many other vampires and creatures hiding from humans. On a trip to Germany Elisabeth got in touch with Ludwig von Hagen, a very old German vampire lord. He convinced her to join his organisation "B.A.N.N." that tries to get rid of trouble maker "Second" so humans will lose the fear of the friendly ones. They started to spread the word of their intentions as missionaries and hunted down many of their own kind who disaggreed and caused trouble. The more they achieved the more peacefull life went for humans and creatures. 

After the "Days of Kaos" and with the total magic ban in Great Britain Elisabeth left Ludwig and traveled back to her country. She helped a lot of none-humans to hide from the goverment which started wide spread inquisitions against eveything supernatural and magic. Also she took care of trouble makers there and got in touch with Dante.

Industrialisation and progress of the human sociality progressed. Unlike her partner Ludwig Elisabeth was very interested in new inventions and technology. Staying up to date with humankind was one of her most important attitutes. Buying shares and properties emsured a fast grow of financial wealth and on day Elisabeth decided that she had enough of her duty and retired from the organisation.

She bought a nice small mansion in Wales where she lives till today. To get some company she started to pick up homeless teenagers to live with her. She set up the condition for them to donate blood at the nearest hospital which she collects now and then to ease her thirst. She completely quit hunting down humans for blood, however if she is threatened she will fight and kill them.

Elisabeth always is resolving herself to the lodgers, explaining whatever they want to know. She is pretty good gaining someones trust even if it's just with offering free food and a home for homless teens. However she makes sure they won't talk reveal her true identity.

Currently she is living with Samantha (22), Mike (19) and Ann (16). They can be pretty annoying sometimes but Elisabeth is thankfull that there is someone to give her some company. She would never admit it but she cares for them like the children she lost a long time ago. She never realy got over the loss of her own family.

One day Ludwig is knocking at her door, with a very unpleasent messages:

Caroline de Legion, an old french vampire leader, was revived by an yet unknown entity. So now the "Children of the thousand eyed spider" (her clan) are getting back into action. No one knows what they're up to but Ludwig guesses Caroline will try to get back her former power (Caroline had a very widespread network of vampires hidden among others, she is known for her intrigues and coups which ensured her to be the secret true ruler over half Europe a long time ago.). It would be good tostop her before that happens.

At the same time a new unknown vampire clan appears and causes trouble by randomly killing humans all around Europe. They're able to create lesser vampires (called "Strigoi") which spread the disease rapidly. The "good" image vampires had in some countries is destroyed and hunters appear again. Some of them take this as an exuse to hunt down all creatures of the night and especially werewolves are heavily influenced too. Of course they blame the vampires which causes even more tensions among the creatures of the dark.

Ludwig asks Elisabeth to come back to their organisation to help handling troubles and get the head behind all this.

Will she?
