Hannah Irons

Resist and Bite

Hannah Irons is a vampire of the Sabbat, the only survivor of a mass embrace in another town that made it back to the Sabbat after wrestling some control back from her Beast. The protege of a Bishop as well as the adoptive childe of her pack ductus, Lloyd, she has recently proven her commitment to the Sword of Caine by devouring the heartblood of a Daughter of Cacophony that had been marked for destruction via amaranth flower. The experience has left her more than a little shaken, but nothing seems to deter her from her vengeance.

## Description

Hannah is a very pretty young woman, that had a body honed from years of physical exercise from teenage years into young adulthood, resulting in a fluid grace which remains even in undeath - in fact, it may even be enhanced and more disturbing now. Thanks to a quirk in her blood, she still partially looks mortal, having not entirely deathly pale skin and eyes that aren't entirely 'dry' at first glance. She prefers to dress entirely in black now that she considers herself one of the eternally damned, often with a heavy trenchcoat to hide her weapons and a motorcycle helmet for when she has to hide her face as well.

## Personality

Hannah is a survivor, someone that has always pushed on and looked for the good in life. Some of that optimism is still there, even. She lives for new experiences, for new enjoyments and pleasures, and has a penchant for wishing to prove herself solely to stick it to those who would deny her. She holds very little respect for authority, only just the amount she needs to not invoke the ire of those who could give her Final Death *too* much. She is proud of not holding any bloodline's curse, considering her status as Pander as a clear sign that her blood is simply superior to that of other Cainites - they are still bound by their Antediluvian's sin, she isn't.

She has a particular hatred for clan Toreador, though she refuses to tell anyone why, and would like nothing more than to stake the lot of them to leave out for the morning light while recording their dying screams in sunlight to watch every night from then on.

### Derangement

Her rapid decline in humanity combined with devouring another Cainite's soul has convinced Hannah that her victim's mind lives on deep inside of her. In moments of stress, either 'personality' currently in control has to succeed at a Willpower roll or be supplanted by the other.

## Personal History

Hannah had a simple life at first. She was one of many girls from an ordinary household, an ordinary family. No large tragedies, no amazingly convenient coincidences. Like many girls, she picked up a few hobbies over time that would lead to actually joining a club or two for a while, but only one thing stuck: Dancing. As it turned out, she had amazing talent with it, and dedication to the art. So much so that a local talent scout made sure she'd get parts in the local theater, and even be allowed to compete in larger competitions - a real sponsor.

But her sponsor was actually a ghoul of the theater's owner, an ancient Toreador of the Camarilla that indulged in the fine arts due to his life-long inability to create anything artistic which definitely had not been helped by vampirism. No, he instead styled himself as an 'artist of life' - suffering would mold the dedicated, the strong, into beautiful living art, which he would only very rarely keep around for long. Ghoulings and Embraces were not for "artwork".

And so, her life started to go wrong. Hannah's parents both died from mysterious illnesses. She herself got into multiple accidents, ruining her chances in many competitions, but she still pushed on. Her "benefactor" was planning a final, large tragedy for her, when one of his old rivals - a traitor that had become part of the Sabbat - snatched her up intentionally for a Mass Embrace. Letting loose the shovelheads into the theater, Hannah, in a complete blood frenzy, tore apart her old manager together with the other shovelheads, for no ghoul could realistically fight off twenty blood-starved fledgelings at the same time.

But as the owner and the Camarilla began wiping out the shovelheads, Hannah was startled out of her frenzy by her reflection - or rather, from looking into a mirror and seeing her own image blurr, flicker, and vanish, as the curse fully took hold of her body for good. Fleeing the scene as the only survivor, her tenacity drove her back to the Sabbat. But not for revenge against them, or for a place of shelter. She had seen the "benefactor" tear apart other Shovelheads, and glare at her with unbridled hatred. She knew that he was a vampire. From there, it had only taken her two nights to put the pieces together, and three more to find the Sabbat. She wanted only one thing: Vengeance against the Elder using her as a plaything.

Intrigued, one of the Bishops took interest in her, and organized her transfer to Hamilton, where she was taken in by Lloyd, a Ventrue Antitribu that had lost his old pack. With him and their pack priest, she was tasked to devour the soul of a Daughter of Cacophony to prove herself worthy of being a true member of the Sabbat - which she did, despite that Cainite turning out to have been something... beyond an ordinary leech.
