((what! what is this! FIVE character's, Lor?! MADNESS.))
Name/Nickname:
Kerri Rebecca Zabat, but has several identification cards with different names. Original first name was Karis; anglicized it to Kerri. Has yet to share this with anyone during her time in America.
Age:
Appears in the ambiguous twenties, though she is a couple centuries old.
Gender:
Female
Height:
5'9"
Weight:
127 lbs
Alignment:
Neutral Evil. She doesn't go out of her way to hurt others, but as seen with Telfer's affliction, she is not shy to devastate anyone that crosses her. She does what she wants, when she wants. Acts like a Neutral Good most of the time.
Affliction:
A type of "softcore" Empusa en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empusa
Nationality:
Caucasian-Greek
Occupation:
Occasionally picks up modeling shoots but for the most part lays around reading, sleeping, or drinking wine.
Skills and Abilities:
She's beautiful and well-dressed and seduces men easily, for the most part monogamous...when the occasion calls for it, if she's careful, can alter the perception of her appearance. Capable of changing to a monster with fangs and claws (black and yellow, the same as Telfer) and eating the flesh and blood of humans. However, she's not amused or fascinated by this ability and deals with the compulsion well, able to carry on a normal relationship.
Her demon shriek is obnoxious and horrible but nothing particularly devastating. Other than that, she's a smooth talker and an expert at seducing men, old and young. Her preferred age groups are the ambiguous twenties and older than forty.
Weaknesses:
Her temper. She's not directly strong or aggressive to begin with, but prone to absolutely horrible fits of rage if betrayed or crossed. Loooooooooooooong ago was susceptible to the dark and her own sexual attraction but after decades of boredom with eating the flesh of men, she learned to control this compulsion.
Is unable to die from natural causes, but is not incapable of being injured. Bones and body break and can be injured in the same way as most humans, but it only takes her half the time to heal.
Relationships:
Telfer - ex boyfriend, cursed him after finding out he cheated on her. Gave him the most violent aspects of her abilities in hopes that he would destroy everything around him, and then himself.
Personality:
Kerri is a complete and total diva, easily attracted to pretty things (for herself) but also completely bored nearly all the time. She's a carnal creature and has no hesitations about sex or attraction, prefers to exert sexual power over men but wouldn't say no to anyone (attractive). Doesn't speak about when or where she came from, or about her youth, retains a coy mystery about her history all the time. When she wants something, she is driven to get it. The rest of the time, she's content to spend her day with books, blankets, and wine. She delights in the corporeal world and isn't concerned with morals, philosophy, or theology. Unbelievably vain, and demanding, especially of her partners (long- and short-term).
Much of her shallow traits come from a necessity to blend into society and an innate narcissism. She rationalizes things in quantitative ways.
Appearance:
I don't have a sketch yet, so y'all are going to have to deal.
Tall, thin (did you get that above?) with long, thick red hair and fair skin. Her eyes are grey and back in 2002, Kerri had extensive dental work done to make sure her teeth were perfectly straight and she regularly visits the local tanning salon for ultraviolet treatments to keep them white. While she has the genetic one-up on most humans in the looks department, she's very focused on makeup and its application, and invests in that as much as she does her clothing. Thanks to the internet and lots of money (touched on later) Kerri wears what she wants. Currently (and it's been this way for the last five or so years) Kerri wears Rock & Republic - however since they filed bankruptcy she's been forced to browse around for something else to fit her style. Much of her clothing and accessories also come from Victoria's Secret.
Regardless of the time of year or weather, Kerri is always wearing nice shoes. Her collection is probably her favourite thing. She has something from just about every trend over the last twenty or so years.
The woman is near constantly wearing a coy expression on her face, but never looks or acts condescending (though, as mentioned, she's especially spiteful when angry). As for her time in Bridgeport, she used makeup and clothing, as well as her illusive abilities to make herself look sixteen, and gradually "age."
History:
Kerri is a type of Empusa, and she's always been aware of this, but has only vague and cloudy memories of when she came to be and has been the "vague twenties" all her life. It can, however, be speculated that this is an angle of her ability to change the perception of her appearance, that her natural form is the one with fangs and claws. Regardless, Kerri refuses to acknowledge or explain the difference of her abilities (as "softcore") in comparison with the mythology, and doesn't make excuses for her attraction to humans or her constant boredom. She's always been carnally focused, but it was only when she learned to control her cannibalistic impulse that she could enjoy it.
From a young age (she lived through the Victorian period) Kerri learned the importance of money and power in the Western world. Though she desires many fine things, she managed to leech off of wealthy men enough to learn about finances and how to control her own. This began by her marrying wealthy old men, and then disappearing with their fortunes after they died and she remained in one place too long (as she doesn't appear to be aging, yet, and would grow bored of aging her features). Usually every fifty or so years (sometimes less) she runs out of money and latches onto someone else who is loaded and waits for them to die, then relocates.
She began dating Telfer when she was "seventeen" attending Bridgeport's public high school. The two dated, and she was - admittedly - happy with him and his adventurous rebel attitude until some whispers hinted at him being unfaithful. She hid herself in a nightclub and watched him get frisky with another girl, before she revealed herself and cursed him. It was the first time in almost a century she aggressively approached anyone, and instead of killing him she (mostly accidentally) cursed him instead. She's avoided him for the last two years, but hasn't left Bridgeport. Telfer's infidelity has affected her trust of men, and she's gone back to flings and objectification of them for her own amusement, rather than explore them as people.
Anything Else:
-Chooses not to tan and is a sunscreen maniac in the summertime.
-Can't stand to not be the center of masculine attention and will do whatever necessary to be the center of attention
-likes red lipstick and basically doesn't wear any other colour
-has been aware of the playing card system for a long time (longer than Telfer) and selectively wears a ring with metalwork in the shape of a spade when she's looking for entertainment
