==Background==
Claire Clairmont was the lover of a notorious English poet. He got her with child, and then abandoned her. Shortly afterwards, Claire's daughter died, and she became suicidal and mentally unstable. At this point, Adolphus entered her life. He was entranced by her passion and unrequited love. He felt that such wildness should not pass from the world, and embraced her. Claire felt redeemed by her new vampiric life, for she knew it was something her poet lover had always desired, and would never receive.
She and Adolphus travelled Europe for a time, but after her poet's death, the continent lost its charm, and she traveled to the New World. She was charmed by New Orleans' vibrant night life, and chose to stay. She quickly set about arranging her affairs, making her entrance on the social scene, and generally making life as complex as possible for the other Kindred of the city. Her passions and mercurial moods were more than made up for by her charm and wit, and she became indispensable to New Orleans vampiric society.
Claire has always been careful not be on the center stage. Rather than create plots of her own, she prefers to discover and alter the plots of the other city elders. Her favorite to date was Accou's "absentee prince", and she secretly aided Accou in creating this illusion. She also enjoys watching the activities of her childe, Harlequin. Claire knows more about the city than most of the other kindred, but rarely reveals anything to anyone.
