About Lady Vorannia Krellin
A great image for gown design and typical hair style of the Krellin ladies.
Background
The noble Krellin family has been secretly controlled by vampires for nearly 8 generations.
Over time, the rumors of vampires faded away, and the family returned to some level of normalcy. Male members of the family, however, are not allowed out in public due to the remnants of vampiric curses that still remain in the bloodline. This allowed the Krellin family to become a mainly matriarchial one. The Krellin women carefully maintained their power by social manipulation and control, but when great hardships came, they retreated into their cold stone mansions and used the memories of curses long forgotten to keep their power intact.
Lady Vorannia Krellin (Sanguine Sorceress), 19 years old, found secret passages through her family's crypts. Although still wealthy, her family is mostly shunned as the necromantic curse seems to effect the entire neighborhood. After watching her family's name besmirched and trodden upon by those of the Talingarde elites, Vorannia could no longer bear the cruel hardships inflicted on her family. Unfair legal practices and the exceptional political torture of banishment drove Vorannia to extremes. She began to use what political connections the family had left to build up a resistance to Talingarde rulership... enough to prepare a military campaign against the Talingarde armies. In the mind of Lady Vorannia Krellin, their lives were forfeit. And so, she began to feed, in the dark of night, on the pitiful lives of the proud city. Secretly, of course, and to spur on the military uprising. She would have her family name restored, her family's honor and titles again gracing the ballrooms of the social elite.
Traits: Sedition, Princess (from Taldor companion, I believe). It's a social trait that grants +1 bonus to Diplomacy and Intimidate, and one of those (Diplomacy) is a class skill.
The women of house Krellin are known for their long black gowns, that might have been in fashion 40 or 50 years ago. No one sees them armed, yet they somehow seem to be fierce in combat.
Knowledge (local) DC 15:
The men of house Krellin are rumored to be forever marked by the taint of vampirism. It is said that their bodies are born rotting, yet they still cling to life through necromantic means.
