Lucia
Full Name: Lucia von Carstein
Associated Names: Isabella’s handmaiden
Age: Around 720
Bloodline: von Carstein
Sire: Isabella von Carstein
Generation: 3rd Generation
Place of Birth: Sylvannia
Physical Description
Lucia is short (5ft 2), with a slim, toned body. She has long blonde hair, which she ties back most of the time. She wears a leather jerkin and riding trousers with calf length leather boots. When the occasion demands it, Lucia wears exquisite all gowns.
Personality
Lucia is a kind, caring woman, but when her anger is roused, she is capable of incredible violence. She is utterly devoted to her family in darkness, and is willing to do almost anything for them. The only creature in the world that she loves more than her family is Peter. He saved her from the priests of Sigmar, and helped her to control her unusual gifts, as well as the thirst itself.
Brief History
Lucia grew up with Isabella. Their fathers were close friends, and the girls shared a tutor. When she was fifteen, Lucia became Isabella’s handmaiden. The pair spent almost all of their time together, and were very close.
When Vlad sired Isabella, she knew that she could not live for eternity without Lucia. She was one of the first people Isabella sired. However, soon after she was sired, Lucia was captured by a group of with hunters and taken to their base in Swartzhafen on the border with Stirland. Here the Priests of Sigmar conducted experiments on captured Vampires, starving them of blood and exposing them to Warp Stone.
Most of the Vampires went insane, and became Vargulfs. Some simply expired. However Lucia seemed unchanged. That was until the day Peter von Krahe attacked the fortress of Swartzhafen. His magical assault on the keep triggered a change in the young vampiress. Power swirled around her cell, and suddenly, with a flash, a beam of raw Dhar blasted through the fortress, ripping a hole in the wall of the castle. This gave the Blood Dragon the opening he needed.
After the battle, Peter came across the frail body of Lucia. Power crackled around her unconscious form. The Blood Knight placed a null stone around the woman’s neck. Damek von Carstein gifted the null stone to Peter before the battle. The stone cancelled out the magic.
Lucia returned to Vlad’s Court alongside Peter. The Count granted the pair permission to marry, but before the ceremony could take place Peter was called away to lead a contingent in Meyerling’s army.
As the various vampire wars progressed, the pair saw little of each other over the long decades, except during the time when Peter was able to return to Swartzhafen. As is the case with many couples, the time was never right for the pair to be wed.
During the time of Mannfred, the Count dispatched many of the von Carsteins to spy on the Empire. Lucia, despite Peter’s protests, was sent to Altdorf, where she was captured by the Priests of Sigmar. Over the centuries, the Blood Dragon attempted to rescue her, but was thwarted in his efforts.
Basic Stats
A new section that MUST be filled in. I have decide to go for a numbered system similar from 1-10, 1 being the very worst, 10 being the very best. Only in very rare instances can it go over 10, and a very good explanation would have to be provided why. Please note these are BASIC stats. If you have a magic item that increases them, that should be put in a bracket afterwards.
Basics
Speed: 5
Agility: 5
Weapon Skill: Lucia was a skilled fencer, training daily with Isabella. 5
Ballistic Skill: Lucia, like her sire, enjoyed hunting with muskets and crossbows. 6 (7)
Raw Strength: 4
Technique Strength: Centuries training has made Lucia skilled with a blade. 5
Toughness: 4
Tactical Knowledge: 2
Magic –
Magical Lores Known: Lucia does not know any Lores as such. When she is not wearing her null stone, if she becomes distressed or angry, she lets loose random, uncontrollable bursts of magic. Perhaps the closest Lore this represents is the Sorcery of the Dark Elves, although not as refined as this.
Raw Magical Power: The experiments of the priest unlock vast amounts of raw energy, linking Lucia directly to the winds of magic. 9 (0)
Magical Skill: Lucia is unable to control her magical curse. This is why she wears her null stone at all times. 0
Technology –
Skillset: Black powder. Lucia is skilled at quickly reloading pistols and muskets.
Skill Level: 6
Equipment
Rapier
This slightly curved blade, imported from Cathay, is of exquisite craftsmanship.
Although extremely well made, this is just a mundane sword.
Engineer’s Pistols
Taken from a Dwarf Engineer at the Battle of Nachthafen, Peter gift these beautiful pistols to Lucia as an engagement present. She is still waiting for the wedding.
These weapons add 1 to Lucia’s ballistic skill.
Null stone
Gifted to Lucia by Peter, who in turn recieved it from Damek von Carstein, this power magic item nullifies the magic flowing through Lucia.
This REDUCES Lucia's Raw Magic Power to 0. It also makes her resistant to weak spells (equivalent to Magic Resistance (1) on the table top).
Other Abilities
Skillset: Hair Styling. Lucia was a handmaiden to Isabella. Before formal occasions, she would style her mistresses hair in the fashions of the time. This is a skill that a lady never forgets.
Skill Level: 8
Strengths
Skilled with ranged weapons
Loves Peter
Loyal to the von Carsteins
Weaknesses
Conflict of loyalties between the Carsteins and Peter
Magical Curse
Additional Notes
Lucia, understandably, hates the Priests of Sigmar for what they have done to her.
