Victoria Luckweather

*"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." - Victoria Luckweather*

**Victoria Luckweather** is a wealthy clothing designer and authoress native to Cutter's Cove, Rhode Island. Not much is known about her life. Described as innocently kind, loving and somewhat flirtacious, she can also be somewhat devious as well as having a penchant for mischief and self-preservation.

Not much is known about Victoria's past and childhood. It is known that she is descendant of the family of Gautier and Juliette Luckweather, a French-Welsh family of wine-makers who owned the largest wine-making plantation in the Loire Valley in France. In the Late 18th Century, the Luckweathers were doing business with the wealthy baronial Woods Family of Cumberland Green on the southern shore of Devonshire County, England. In doing so, they were visited often by Barclay Woods, who separately romanced Gautier's daughters, Veronica and Victoria. After the Woods moved to the American colonies, Barclay desired to wed Veronica, a decision supported by her parents, and take her as his wife to the colonies, but for unknown reasons, their marriage did not occur and Barclay instead married Victoria with whom he had also loved.

What exactly happened afterward is unrevealed. According to the Woods Family History, Barclay came down with a serious illness and died soon after, but according to Victoria's research, he and Victoria traveled to Martinique in the West Indies to expand on the family's holdings there. Still yet, Barclay Woods's descendant reports that he returned to England where he lived out his life.

Born in or around 1958, Victoria was born on a farm located somewhere in the Brittany area of France. She had six brothers and sisters; one of whom, Nicholas Luckweather, who grew up to become a lawyer. A free spirit, she traveled often and frequently with a wandering band of New Age mystics, ending up in England, Germany, Austria, Greece, Romania and Egypt. Returning to France, she met and was romanced by the modern Barclay Woods and married him because she thought it was their destiny to be together. However, the marriage didn't last because Barclay felt she could be too controlling and they broke up; however, while Victoria percieved the separation was mutual, Barclay construed the relationship had become volatile, siting her as extremely jealous and ruthless.

Following their separation, Victoria traveled to London and worked as a model in the garment industry, gradually creating and establishing her own clothing design. While attending her own fashion display in New York City, she learned Barclay was now living near Ashford Falls, New York with the American branch of the family and visited him looking for a reconciliation. Unfortunately, during this period, Barclay was romantically involved with Maggie Winters, an associate with the family. Victoria immediately saw her as a rival, and used trickery and subterfuge to complicate their romance. This rivalry also coincided with a period of extreme anxiety, restlessness and irritably accompanied by nightmares through the family to the extent that the family matriarch, Elizabeth Woods had to be hospitalized. Through these series of events, Victoria survived practically unscathed, trying to form a bond with Liz's daughter, Monica Woods and Dr. Samantha Oh, who she saw as acquaintances who could help her in her reconciliation with Barclay.

To speed up this reconciliation, Victoria reached out to her brother, Nicholas Luckweather, to come to the United States and befriend the Woods Family, as well as a young New Age practitioner named Sara Capture, reportedly to help her break up Barclay and Maggie. However, instead of helping her, Nicholas plotted to gain control of the Woods Family fortune. When Victoria found out his plans, she attacked him for setting into motion a plan that would have ruined her reconciliation. When his plans came out in public, Nicholas had to break short his deceitful plans even as Victoria departed out of embarrassment. Sara continued living in the area for quite some time, claiming that nearby Haverstraw Canyon was conducive with her beliefs.

Remaining in the United States, Victoria was soon approached and romanced by businessman Lionel Barrett, marrying a few months later despite herself still married to Barclay. Living with him on his estate near Cutter's Cove, she dabbled a bit in writing romance novels, she was soon tracked down once more by chance by Dr. Samantha Oh, who was searching for a lost portrait for the Woods Family. Although she was still in love with Barclay, she asked Dr. Oh not to reveal her whereabouts, but a few months later, Victoria learned that Lionel was a member of the Children of the Sun, a cult that was slowly taking places in the local government and grooming Barrett for government office. Calling on Barclay for help, they worked together with Quentin Woods and Jeff Hodges, a former member of the cult, in deterring their efforts. In doing so, both Lionel and Jeff lost their lives, and Victoria went into a year-long depression.

After Lionel's death, Victoria inherited Lionel's mass wealth and donated his estate to the City of Newport. However, in 1995, Barclay Woods suddenly became inflamed with a bizarre affliction that had hit him twice before in his life, and Victoria took it upon herself to move into his home in the Woodbury House to take care of him. Remembering how much they once loved each other, they decided to renew their vows as husband and wife. In doing so, she became very affluent in the Ashford Falls social circle, often traveling to New York City for her fashion line.
