Isabella Wieszcz

**Isabella Wieszcz**, known simply as *Sabella* to friends and family, is the fourth and youngest child of Aisling DeAngelis and one of her two still-surviving children; despite this, Sabella is largely uninvolved with the coven's going-ons.

As a divise vampire, Sabella has all of the traits and abilities typical of both Sanguine and Psionics. Similarly, she has a resistance to psychic penetration, as learned by Alessandra Morgan in her youth. Something of a surprise to all, Isabella also boasts necromantic capabilities — though this was not discovered until her adulthood, and so has proved difficult to master.

Despite the scourge on her coven's name, her abilities and connections have carried her far in life, most recently securing her a position as a field agent for a private intelligence agency in Thailand. When she isn't occupied by her career, she's most often found at her family home in France with her wife, Zuzanna Wieszcz, and their two children, Davina and Kira.

Her faceclaim is pending.

## Appearance

Slender, leggy, and angular. A toned physique hidden behind a deceptive softness. Add more here.

Ever the mindful woman, Sabella has carved a career out of allowing people to think that she is defined by things like her family name, her acquaintances, and even the clothing she wears. Something that the Morgans taught her is that there are subtle meanings in the smallest of details, and so every sartorial choice has a specific motive and changes to accommodate a specific audience. Even so, her closet is primarily neutral-toned with an equal amount of tight- and loose-fitting clothing.

Like many mythicals, she bears the scars of a life long-lived: a dime-sized blister in the center back of  her left hand; a silver knife scar down her right side, between her ribs; a slash along her left palm, like an extra palm line, from cutting herself peeling fruit as a child. Various scars were earned throughout her teenage years training in Enoch, and these, alongside varioues scrapes from childhood play, serve to remind her of her mortality. Perhaps most noticable is the long, white gash across her throat — the punctuative reward earned in an altercation with mother-figure Madrigal Morgan, who she has not contacted nor been contacted by since.

Her voice is deceptively deep and amber rich for her delicate appearance. Consonants clear and crisp, neatly clipped, with the occasional rasp and warm drawl of Italian on the vowels. Her voice often shakes and cracks, and she is generally soft-spoken even when angered.

As far as perfume goes, she prefers amber, woody, smokey scents - anything more grounded than light and floral. She has a habit of crushing rosemary against her wrists in time of stress and so this, too, occasionally wafts from her person.

## Character

Isabella is defined by her melancholy. In her long life, she has gained an aloof indifference and pessimism towards herself, but for those who win over her trust and care she carries an intense and undying loyalty and protectiveness that is, at times, overbearing. At her core she has always and still deeply cares about people and is righteous, but has found it increasingly difficult to engage actively in society given her conditions for survival. She clings to her memories and the fleeting nature of feeling therein with a vice grip, afraid that loosening grasp for even a second will send her spiraling into self-doubt of reality. She is heavily dissociative, and requires validation and affirmation as a reflection back to who and what she is both corporeally and emotionally — yet, she mostly keeps to herself and isolates by design.
