The Masquerade

A female Kindred with dark obsidian skin glowing under neon light, dressed in vintage haute couture and modern fetishwear blending eras, exuding an entrancing scent of spiced hibiscus and ancient blood.

Erzulie is a radiant, lush, and nearly too beautiful vampire who is equal parts muse, priestess, and predator. She is ruthlessly intelligent, politically shrewd, and deeply intuitive, blending artistic ecstasy with spiritual authority. Her beauty is a weapon that demands worship and attention, and she commands a cult-like following through ritual, intimacy, and addiction. Loyal to Adze with an alchemical bond, she walks the line between damnation and apotheosis.

Erzulie was Embraced in New Orleans during the late 1920s after a performance that blurred ritual and possession. Her sire's identity remains unknown, but they saw in her a divine beauty that should not fade. Scorned for her flamboyance and occult leanings, she wandered Kindred society before settling in Chicago. There, she founded the Blood Disco, an underground dance hall that evolved into a Lilith cult at Red Noº 5 nightclub, where Kindred and kine offer blood, pain, and devotion for transcendence. Her influence rivals older Kindred, feared for her potential if unchecked.
