History
Date of Birth: January 7th, 1618
Home: London, City of London County, England, United Kingdom
Family: Christopher and Mabel Thomas (parents), Montgomery (older brother), Harriet (younger sister)
Death: Personal Tragedy (born in London, she moved with her family as one of the first colonists to land in St. Mary's City in Maryland in the 17th-century; there she grew up in town and became a humble barmaid; her keen and curious mind attracted a Cainite visiting the colony, Nicholas Allister, who seduced and ghouled the woman; throughout the next three and a half centuries, she accompanied him always and she grew in intellect but also isolation, not only due to the supernatural devotion of the Blood Bond but her domitor's lineage as the cold True Brujah; finally, in the modern era, in Kansas City where he was assigned as an Inconnu Monitor, she felt too suffocated to continue and committed suicide by overdosing on opiates), 2010
Mentor: The Mask
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (she discovered her final destruction had not yet arrived, and a second chance was presented as a ghost; the Masquers Reaped her and taught her the basics of death, noting her latent artistic skill and encouraging her to channel it through restive Arcanoi, if not as the artist then the medium itself, channeling her self-destructive contempt into a will pliably bent to the embrace of beauty)
Comrades: Nicholas Alister, David Staph, Milo Clay, Monte Wagner, Antonio Durante, Jodi Lomauro, Alyssa Currie, Kayla Garrett, Toria Grey, Rossana Scalici
Key Event #1: Personal Tragedy (though she willingly worked with the guild, she snuck into Nicholas's haven to visit her former Domitor and beloved, and she discovered Nicholas missed her badly after all)
Transition: Loss of Companions (the loss she suffered and also inflicted on others, or at least on Nicholas, finally struck her deeply, and she visited the vampire while also helping him understand the dual life she now led and had to balance)
The Shadow
Appearance: Laurena's Shadow appears to her as herself back before Nicholas first ghouled her, when she had hopes for her normal life: vibrant and optimistic
Trigger: Whenever she's confronted with a situation that reminds her of her mortal life, or a chance to pursue a goal she had in her mortal life.
Artifacts & Relics
Occult Tome (relic)
Appearance: An old, iron-bound hardcover tome with no markings on the cover and filled with pages of ancient supernatural secrets, beliefs, and myths
Origin: Inherent
Significant Other
Name: Nicholas Alister, 1640
Nature: Romantic
Nicholas
Weakness
Enthralled
Even in death, Laurena still fixates on her domitor. She's utterly in love with Ncholas still, as she has been for almost 400 years.
Likelihood of Corruption
Average.
Much of what she wants isn't entirely unobtainable, but the hungering for it will give her Shadow a daily feast.
