Elizabeth

Akane is a linked character of this pair.

Name: Elizabeth Basser
Gender: Female
Age: 20

Origin: Florin City; English born, moved when she was ~8 years old.

Stats

Traits:

• Handycrafter C - Elizabeth is a tinker and enjoys working with her hands. She is skilled at carpentry, masonry, metalworking, and similar tasks.
• Vampiric Durability E- – Elizabeth's physical toughness extends far beyond what her body should be capable of. As a reaction, she can spend a blood point to negate and/or heal damage she has taken equal to her current blood stage. (Effectively, calculate damage as normal, and then apply healing before determining wounds or any other effect of the damage.)
• Vampiric Strength E+ – Elizabeth's physical strength is beyond uncanny, and she is fully capable of throwing an adult human male if she desired. Elizabeth may spend up to X points from her blood pool as a free action or reaction (X is equal to which stage of her blood pool she is in). She gains temporary pool of 2 bonus swap dice per point spent, and she may apply any number (including zero) to either side of a physical based contest or challenge. She adds her current blood stage (minimum +1) as a bonus per swap die added to that side for that check. This temporary pool lasts for up to 1 hour, and she may refresh its duration by spending additional blood points.
  • Exceptional Strength E+ – Even without spending blood points, Elizabeth is stronger than her frame would suggest. She treats all strength-based checks as if they were one difficulty lower. In directly opposed contests, her opponent takes disadvantage 1d4 to both sides of their roll.
• Gaeas: Obey Akane EX - Elizabeth is entirely unable to harm Akane mentally or physically without considerable contrivance to achieve it. She must also obey any active command Akane gives to the best of her ability.

Unique Skill

• Vampirism (False) D - Elizabeth can absorb power through drinking the blood of other creatures, primarily humans. Magical creatures are also acceptable, however, normal animals are not. Due to her low ranking of vampirism, Elizabeth's blood stages are higher than "normal"
  • Blood points per stage: 12 per stage ([15] - [soul fortitude] - [rank above E])
  • Maximum Blood Points: 32 ([soul fortitude]^2) + (3[5 + rank value]) (E = 1, D = 2, C = 4, B = 8, A = 16; each + or - to rank is an adjustment of .3)

Backstory/Concept
Elizabeth dipped into the alleyway and entered a cafe. The sign was missing, and had been for a while now, but the sun damage to the wall had left a permanent indication of what was once there. The interior was not what one would expect of a cafe, but rather an apartment. She started to put away the groceries in the open kitchen; all the previous equipment and facilities were present from the previous establishment, but the refrigerator was one she had scavenged and kludged into working properly.

Vegetables, mostly, they had plenty of meat still available, and the sounds of the butchery room indicated that her housemate was busy preparing more. The bottles of blood within the fridge were moved to make room for the soda she decided to splurge on. And with all the food put away in its proper place, Elizabeth looked around the dining area that was now the living room.

A set of brand new lingerie, and an opened package and letter, sat upon the small and crude coffee table. She didn't need to read the note to know what it was for. Rent was due soon. Her stomach twisted and turned at the thought. The size of the bra clearly indicated the lingerie wasn't for her, and she nearly slapped herself for daring to be relieved at that. She gritted her teeth, her oversized canines digging into the inner flesh of her mouth. The sounds of butchering had stopped.

Akane wiped her face off with a mostly clean rag as Elizabeth entered the cold room that functioned both as meat storage and the disassembly area. The meat hanging nearby was no longer recognizable from what it had been before; skin and organs removed and fully parted out into small pieces to begin the aging process for the larger chunks. She tossed the rag onto a nearby counter, where a jar filled with fresh blood sat. It was still open, the surface rippling in rhythm of a heartbeat.

"Welcome back! I guess I got carried away," the red-haired woman grinned. Her smile was frank and innocent, even if her face still had blood upon it, and the coveralls she wore were stained with a variety of bodily fluids both old and new. "I got a call in about a lead to a new outbreak, and decided to make some room in the kennels. Don't worry, I left your favorite alone."

"Eh? Oh, so that's why. Why don't you go shower and I'll handle cleaning up the kennels? They're probably going to be afraid of you coming in there," the slightly younger blonde woman offered. "I'll join you afterward, it shouldn't take long."

"Hehee. As long as you don't grab a snack from them. I have a nice dinner planned, afterall."

Akane left, still grinning, doffing the messy clothes into a basket just at the door before continuing upstairs to the makeshift bedroom and bathroom above the storage room. Elizabeth grabbed her own coveralls as she moved to the second exit of the cold room. In the middle of changing, she saw herself in the glass window of the door, the darkness causing it to act as a mirror. She gasped, and wrenched her eyes closed. When she opened them again, she saw herself again, and not a horrid monster.

No, her reflection was not of a gaunt beast with glowing red eyes and drenched in blood. Nor was it a bloated pig of a human being. She would not allow herself to think that way anymore. The figure was a slender woman, maybe a little broad shouldered... Most certainly not a man, no matter what those pricks tried to say. With a sigh, and several deep breaths, she resumed changing her clothes.

The kennels were quiet, even considering only three of the four cages were now occupied. Though the occupants were not what one might normally expect. These cages were fairly large, though short; within them were girls, their arms and legs bound to make them quadrupedal and otherwise nude. Their expressions were slightly glazed, with only the smallest hint of an intellect within their skulls anymore. Akane's eyes assured they were no longer human, but Elizabeth was still not used to the thought. These former lycanthropes were human before, but stopped being so as soon as the disease had taken hold in their minds.

Elizabeth easily lifted the girls one-handed as she sprayed the floor down, hefting them under her arm when spreading new hay and blankets. It was a fairly quick process thanks to being able to skip a few steps just due to her strength. Elizabeth was surprised at how quickly she grew used to the changes in her body. Though not the ones in her mind; even now, she thought of these girls as just cows. Blood and meat to be exploited. Was that her vampirism talking, or had Akane also messed with her companion's brain?

She decided not to think too much about it.

The sleazeball in the shape of a rotund, socially inept man-child would arrive soon. She might as well get cleaned up herself, and handle the unpleasantness that she could actually do something about. And while it was true that she agreed to both deals, only one of the two she was truly okay with.
