Marianne Dimitri Alexander Seyorio
Appearance
Marianne is exceedingly beautiful in spite of her vampiric features, ruby red eyes with black sclera, porcelain white skin, glistening fangs behind a perfectly formed mouth. She can change various aspects of her appearance on a whim so as not to give away her true nature, but she generally chooses an ethereal appearance, hip length blonde hair, striking blue eyes, pale alabaster skin without blemish or flaw.
She leans heavily into the inhuman part of her beauty, though such appearances isn't uncommon anymore among wealthy nobility who can afford cosmetic enchantments.
She dresses in a wide range of clothing, functional to courtly. Fine materials and high quality craftsmanship. She has a look of delicacy about her, but this is a ruse to hide the inhuman strength she possesses.

Personality
Marianne is many things, as those possessing of immortality often are, the ages shape people into who they are but one who has the chance to be everything tends to not settle on any one sort of person. Unique is the best way to describe who she is and how she acts.
But in spite of this fact there are a few hidden traits that are consistent in her no matter how she tries to hide it.
She tries to turn it off but she is compassionate, she tries to ignore it but she's a caring soul that wants to help others.
She tries to be cruel and arrogant in her power so she doesn't have to think about all the evil she's done and the loved ones she's hurt and been hurt by over the centuries.
She's a very emotional and delicate girl hidden behind the stone wall and cold cruelty of vampirism.

Biography
Centuries pass so slowly in a tomb, especially when one is not truly dead but simply asleep, trapped in this inanimate state unable to move, breath, or even think. There are no dreams in death, the aestivated sleep of vampires deprived of blood to the point that they cannot move and essentially die but remain... Dormant... They await blood to wake them up and heal their desiccated flesh.
It was actually treasure hunters that discovered her ancient tomb and opened her sarcophagus, but when it was discovered that there was no treasure except the ring she wore on her finger a fight broke out between the men... A fatal mistake was made, a punch sent blood and broken teeth over the desiccated corpse, where the blood landed it was absorbed into the skin... And that was enough to awaken the ancient vampire.
She arose from her sarcophagus and attacked the now frightened men, one by one hunting them down and draining every drop of blood from their body.
Full up from her meal she emerged from her tomb, still blood drunk and mad with hunger, the blood she consumed only making her appear as some decrepit and aged cannibal. She hunted through the night, ignoring the blood of animals to find the succulent ambrosia of human blood.
Finding and completely draining three villages of people still didn't sate her hunger, but it was slightly more manageable now and her youth had begun to return to her flesh.
From then on she was more careful biding her time for the hunt, trapping and seducing mortals from the road to feed her until she could find a proper feeding ground to establish herself.
During the day she hid in caves and under trees from the deadly rays of the sun, during the night she hunted, stalked campsites of traveling bands, slaughtering bandits or gangs of goblins.
Eventually she found her way across the continent to the magnificent city of Oban.
By this time she was properly clothed and in her right mind, though still not even close to her full strength.
She was able to persuade and seduce her way into the city, and then found herself a nice noble that fell easily under her spell. She lived with him and he provided for her needs in secret while also giving her a new cover story. They became the new unexpected couple in the noble circles of Oban and did very well for themselves together. She used her experience of nobility to make her new consort very successful and powerful, and herself by extension.
Marianne now navigates the political landscape of Oban, one by one trapping people of power and making them obedient to her all the while seeming a regular and submissive Oban woman.
Blood was never out of reach for her with all the men of influence she got in her pocket and she recovered her full strength quickly.
