Personality: Katrina likes to be in control. Everything must be as she wishes it to be, or there will be hell to pay. Intense and firey, years of practice have turned her youthful rages to the cold calculations of a wise adult. Cruel and ruthless, Katrina has very little compassion left in her soul, and sees mercy as a weakness. Born a lady, Katrina never deviates from the politeness she was raised on. Unfortunately, it has expanded to where she says “Do pardon me” – when she drops your drained body to the ground.
Katrina loves fine art and music – her one hobby is going to art galleries. Many times she goes to simply test their knowledge, especially if it was a time period she knew. She reads voraciously, and prides herself on her expansive, wide ranging knowledge. Occasionally she’ll watch Jeopardy if she’s sure no one’s looking.

Weaknesses: Katrina being a vampire has very few. However, she is prideful and very overconfident. This causes her to slip – though rarely. She will push herself to her limit and forget to feed.

Abilities: Katrina can handle sunlight for a very small period of time, so can be up in early evening, before the sun has gone fully down. She possesses the usual lightening fast reflexes of her kind, and is adept with her dagger. She has the ability to cloud her victims minds – minor telepathy.

Weapons: Herself. She wields a silver dagger that she won in a battle long ago.

Prized Possessions: A necklace that was given to her by the vampire who turned her.
Home(s): Katrina lives in a large house in Beverly Hills.

History: Katrina was born in France in 1664. She was the daughter of a wealthy merchant and had all the best of everything she wanted. One night she was disgusted to find that she’d been betrothed to wed one of her father’s business partners. Her pride would not see the match – her heart belonged to a strange young man who visited her father every few months. He’d won her heart with riches and words – and gave her a diamond necklace that she holds to this day. One night he promised her the world – and turned her to a creature of the night. Once she was over the revulsion of feeding off blood, Katrina found that being all powerful suited her arrogant senses like a glove. Her talent for rising early appeared when she passed her first century, and it saved her life. Her appreciation for the finer things in life meant that she was reluctant to leave her father’s wealth – but her lack of aging soon became obvious. Running the office from behind closed doors, she was discovered one day by an older assistant whose grandmother had known Katrina as a child. Before he could spread the word she tore his throat out.
She was followed to her resting place, and only because she rose before her master did she hear the mob coming to the tomb. She watched from a hiding place as her maker was burned where he lay at the dimming of the day.
Snatching what money and jewelry she could, she bought passage to the Americas and settled in the new colony. Men threw themselves at her, and she moved from town to town, keeping her identity a secret and living well. She still has a mind for numbers and wealth, and became adept at investments and accounting. In the gold rush of 1849 she moved to the west and created a series of small banks – then as the money continued she slowly began to open other branches until she had a giant company. Her salary continues into what the company believes to be a charity tax account. The one time someone decided to stop donating… he did not make the mistake again.
Her dominance in the company was assured – and she began to need to assert herself further – a few other vampires in the area went out for a lark – and they came home with a 10 year old boy. Not just a boy – but a werewolf. Little Eli was the group’s toy for a long while, but Katrina ran his discipline from the beginning. Her cruelty gave her an edge over the other vampires in the area, and after a while Eli was hers alone – he reacted to her touch and voice above all – and that was just fine with her.
She moved Eli and herself to LA in 1998, and has been there ever since. The growing werewolf population is a source of amusement, until she began to observe them. The power they held in the city made her nervous – and when one of a pack kept her from a kill one night – Katrina can’t have that… and will not have that. All werewolves will belong to her – or die.
