## History

In the distant past, nestled deep in the heart of the continent, lay a peaceful village named Serenity. Serenity was a beacon of life, shrouded in the enchanting aura of simplicity. The villagers were simple, hardworking folk, who toiled under the sun and swapped stories under the starlight. Among them, stood a figure of faith and hope - Rosette Desdemona, the village priestess. Rosette was a woman of immense courage and boundless compassion. Her silver hair flowed freely, mirroring the river of wisdom that ran through her soul. Her eyes, a vivid green, echoed the vitality and resilience of Serenity. However, the tranquility of Serenity was soon to be shattered. Whispers of the night creatures, the vampires, spread like wildfire. They were said to be spilling from the shadows, their fangs gleaming with an insatiable thirst for human blood. Panic ensued, and the villagers prepared to abandon their homes, their hearts heavy with despair. But Rosette, the beacon in their storm, chose to stay behind. She would face the vampires, holding them back long enough for her people to sail to safety. As the last ship set sail, a chilling wind swept through Serenity. The vampires descended, their eyes glowing with a menacing red. Rosette was tackled to the ground, and as her vision blurred with red spilling blood, her own blood, the last thing she saw was the silhouette of the departing ship against the crimson horizon. Then darkness claimed her.

When the villagers returned years later, they found their once-vibrant village in ruins, a ghostly shadow of its former self. They searched for their beloved priestess, hoping against hope that she had survived. They found her, but not as the Rosette they remembered. She was a vampire, a frenzy one at that, her once vivid eyes replaced by a haunting red glow. Unable to bear the thought of ending her life, they made the difficult decision to chain her. They built a structure deep within the village temple, a dark, secluded room where Rosette would be kept, away from the world. Years turned into decades, decades into centuries. The tale of Rosette Desdemona, the brave priestess who became a vampire, gradually faded into oblivion. Her form, once vibrant with life, was slowly encased in stone, a horrifying monument to a long-forgotten past.

Fast forward to the modern age. Two archaeologists, intrigued by the legends of Serenity, decided to explore the fallen temple. They delved deeper into the temple, their torchlights slicing through the thick darkness. They stumbled upon a dark room. In the Centre stood a strange statue, eerily human-like. As they moved closer, they unintentionally stumbled onto it as a piece of the "statue" broke off. A chill ran down their spines as they realized the horrifying truth - this was no statue. The stone layer crumbled away, revealing a decaying body, thin and frail. From the shadows, a red glow emerged, filling the room with an ominous light. It was Rosette, her chains weakened by time, now nothing more than a soft constraint. She lunged at the horrified archaeologists, her hollow features twisted into a monstrous grin. Their screams echoed through the temple as Rosette claimed her first victims in centuries.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Shapeshift:** Daisy is capable of forming sharp claws or gaining minor animalistic traits like a wolf/bat's nose or ears to assist her in navigation, a compensation for her weak eyesight. Rose is also able to shapeshift to a full bat or take the form of a dark mist.
* **Mind manipulation:** Via eye contact, Daisy can manipulate her victim's minds making them see what she wants them to see, an outdated old way to implement mind control which can be avoided with a strong will.
* **Basic vampiric traits:** *Invulnerability/regeneration/enhanced strength/etc* Daisy does possess these basic traits just like every other vampire. Daisy is one of the oldest and least evolved so her teeth are all fully sharp, to tear the skin off and not simply suck the blood to avoid wasting food. However she can choose to only suck the blood when she doesn't feel like murdering her victims.
* **Infection:** Rose is able to transform others into vampires as well however she has to inject her blood into her victims (or force them to consume it) after biting them to start the transformation process, her bite is not infectious but her blood is, still following the old ways of wisely choosing who she should transform and who she should not and not just blindly biting onto everyone.

### Weaknesses

* **Tradition Weakness:** Aside from the classic vampire weaknesses,
* **Blindness:** Daisy is fully blinded by any form of light, only able to see in dark places or areas that have very little light. Rose also follows the elderly ways of hunting which doesn't support her considering she is in a new era, one of these mortals forces her to ask for permission before accessing any house that more than 1 person is in, she refuses to enter without gaining any form of permission from anyone inside the house even if they don't own the house.
* **Religious Devotion:** Despite being harmed by religious symbols, she intentionally interacts with crosses on regular bases, giving a faint hint that she used to be a priest before her transformation.
