Win Déjà's loyalty once and she'll always have your back. She would rather go down with the ship than spill any secrets you have shared with her in confidentiality. She is able to endure pain longer than normal due to her high pain tolerance. She's stubborn and doesn't break easily to physical pain and hard labour. You will probably have more luck getting to her psychically instead.
Can act very motherly and likes to use affectionate nicknames like cupcake, biscuit, sweetie and honey. She has a soft spot for the vampires she has turned over the years along with the individuals she consider family. On the other side, when it comes to werewolves, she's as cold as one can get. She doesn't trust them at all, even when other coven members give them an OK.
There are some things, especially from the past, Déjà Vu doesn't want to share with anyone. The past is the past and she wants to focus on the present.
Over the years Déjà has come across many superstitious beliefs and she can't really help but believe in them. She knows that some of them are probably not even real, but what if they are? Is she really willing to risk that? Black cats crossing her path, broken mirrors, walking under ladders, number 13... She believes in the all and many more...
Déjà doesn't have the largest amount of patience. She hates waiting in line, waiting for something to finish, before she can use it or if someone ask her to stay and it takes forever for them to come back. She thinks it's a waste of time and would rather spend her day more useful. She not good at doing nothing either. In that case her foot will initiate in a hyperactive tapping of boredom.
Déjà is not the best at boundaries. If she has urges or needs, she might put them above rules and laws, all things considered of course. She doesn't always dwell too much in thinking about the consequences her actions may have. This might be one of the reasons why she doesn't think any of it with the amount of lovers she has had or the things she has done as a con artist. She just likes to have fun and excitement.
She doesn't like to stay in the same place for too long at the time. Freedom means a lot to her and staying too long in a town makes her feel trapped. It's normally around this time she moves back to one of her other appartments.
History
1772
Déjà is an old soul born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1772. She was originally named Theodosia Fay; Theo or Fay for short, but she doesn't go by that name any longer. Even though her mother was an African slave, Déjà was born into the term 'free people of color' and was not enslaved due to her father being a French settler.
She lived with her mother for the first five years of her life, but eventually got to move in with her father, who had bought a house at that time. He was very specific on teaching her French and refused to speak English with her at home.
When Déjà was 10, her father managed to buy her mother free and made her his common-law-wife. The little girl got two more sisters in the following years.
Even though Déjà had never been enslaved, she had very strong feelings and opinions against the matter. She might even have turned to arson a couple of times during her rebellious adolescence... She never got caught, but her mother knew and slapped her every time. However, it only emboldened the girl's fight against the injustice.
At the age of 21 she married a Spanish settler, Miguel. He was 15 years her senior, but he had been courting her for quite a while until she finally gave in for his charm. At 23, she gave birth to her first son, Emmanuel. The little family was perfectly happy for a couple of years, but one day Déjà's husband was called to war. She was expecting their second child and didn't want him to go, but he had no choice. None of them did. In the years he was gone, Déjà missed him terribly. Especially because she miscarried and lost the child, she was carrying. Vulnerable and lonely, unable to inform her husband about what had happened, she found comfort in another gentleman, by the name Jeremiah. He was there for her, when Miguel wasn't... To her misfortune, she fell in love with the stranger and let him sleep beside her in her husband's place - and it wasn't before long she was pregnant again. She began to notice more and more small wounds on her neck and limbs, but it had to be bug bites of some sort...
1802
In 1802, Déjà felt the burning sensation in her throat for the first time. Her sons were 7 and 2 years old at that time and her husband had returned from the war. His wife never told him his youngest child wasn't his, even though Loïc had nothing in common with Miguel. To be fair, he had Jeremiah's eyes...
She still saw regularity and up until now Jeremiah had been careful not to bite her during a full moon, but now that her husband was back, he didn't want to let her go. He saw no other option than to turn her, so that she would choose him over Miguel. He explained to her that she was dangerous to be around. That she would end up killing her family, if she didn't leave with him. Déjà didn't want to leave her family, she loved them with all her heart, but there was no other way. It left her broken and changed. Not only because she now had to accept to be a vampire and learn how to deal with it, but she also took a great distance from love. She promised herself never to give her heart to another man again. This of course didn't really go according to Jeremiah's original plan, but he kept teaching her the way of a vampire in hope of winning her heart.
By the time Déjà had passed the fledgling stage, she left him.
She traveled to Canada to get away from everything she knew, to get a new chance and start over. A much more carefree life turned out to be exactly what she needed; no strings attached.
Over the years she acquired new skills and abilities which helped her to become quite successful as a con artist. It was around this time she took on the stage name Déjà Vu - partly inspired by people, who started to recognize her.
1977
During the next century and a half, Déjà lived a wild but free life, traveling around in North America. She became a household name in certain inner circles, known for her reputation as a con artist and a street artist. She likes to use graffiti and paint to express herself and set her mark, proving she still has strong opinions regarding human rights.
The year was 1977 when she passed through New Cresthill and met a remarkable young vampire by the name of Meredith Crosse. She was the leader of a coven and from the start Déjà saw something special in her. Maybe she recognized herself in the girl. She was intrigued and decided to stay in town for a while, despite being on the road for so long, never allowing herself to settle down. Meredith was a fair leader who put her coven's interests before her own. Déjà had met many vampires over the years, but none of them quite like this one. In the end she pledged her loyalty and joined the Enigma Coven.
