History
Date of Birth: June 17th, 1980
Home: Venice Beach, Los Angeles, California, United States
Family: Robert and Bethany Jasco (parents); Jennifer (birth name)
Awakening: Preordainment (only child, spoiled rotten, beauty pageants and modeling even before her teens; witnessed drug use and extreme self-punishment in the industry her parents foisted on her; Iona complained to the pageant leader, but he attempted to rape her; her scream literally ripped him to pieces as it spurred her Awakening), 1998
Mentor: Natasa Mitriadi
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (that scream echoed through the reality of the cosmos and impelled her directly to the local chantry, where the Cult of Ecstasy took her in and taught her the Path; she knew she was Aphrodite in the flesh, and she embraced both the Arts and that role to aspire to meet, changing her name accordingly to Iona Thais)
Comrades: Marilena Archili, Zev Arvind
Key Event #1: Awe & Wonder (her young ego clashed with that local chantry and she traveled to Greece, there to explore the ruins for forgotten secrets, as well as toy with a number of lovers)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (Ioan discovered bits of truth at the summit of Mt. Olympus, as there she communed with her Avatar and all "the gods", guiding her to the sea)
Key Event #3: Awe & Wonder (Ioan became a dancer aboard a crusie ship line for a few years, avoiding contact with most cryptids no matter where her ship made berth)
Key Event #4: Personal Tragedy (then she had a new vision that warned her to flee the sea, as dark forces rose from it and threatened to take and corrupt her, so she voluntarily fled inland from the Caribbean and Florida deep inland into the American Midwest)
Transition: Shift in Purpose (instinct halted her around Kansas City, where her "divine intuition" guided her well, and she at least found allies among other Cultists here)
The Emerald Greenroom (Sanctum)
Location: Kansas City, Missouri, United States
Structure: House
Stock: Saltwater inside pool, sauna, boudoir, genuine classical Greek artifacts including at least one Dorian column
Traits: Arcane 4
Significant Others
Names: Zev Arvind; 2008
Nature: Erotic
Zev
Weakness
The Goddesss
Iona sees herself (in no small part due to her Avatar) as the incarnation of Aphrodite/Venus herself, in all her (insufferably arrogant) glory.
Likelihood of Corruption
High.
She's not a bad person but rather that her Avatar has her convinced that she's a living goddess and should be worshiped accordingly.
