10 Minute Background:
Step 1: Write 5 background and concept elements that you feel are important to your image of the character. These can be a concept overview, a list of important life events, a physical description, a personality profile...whatever you need to get an image in your mind. 5 is just a minimum...more elements are encouraged!
1) She is a privileged daughter of a Ustalav Nobleman, raised to good manners and fashionable clothing.
2) She is went to the University of Oppara, discovering a talent and interest in Alchemy.
3) She is outgoing and charismatic, loves to converse and flirt.
4) She loves music, especially keyboard instruments.
5) She was killed and raised by a Vampire.
6) Crawling out of her sarcophagus, she was forced to flee superstitious villagers as they had already held her funeral.
7) Believes she is going to become a full vampire unless cured.
Step 2: List at least two goals for the character. At least one of these goals should be one that the character has, while another should be one that you, as a player, want to see developed over the course of the game.
1) She wants to use Alchemy to research a possible cure for her condition.
2) Wants to aid investigators using her training in forensics.
3) She should have to contend with the Vampire who killed and raised her, to figure out the unnecessarily complex intrigue the Vampire weaves around her, and ultimately defeat it.
Step 3: List at least two secrets about your character. One is a secret the character knows, one is a secret that involves him but that he is not actually aware of yet. This will help me in creating plots that center around your character. I will also be creating a third secret which you as a player will not be aware of, so expect some surprises!
1) When captured and tortured by a vampire hunter, she bit and killed him. It was in self defense but she didn’t believe anyone would buy that from her, so she concealed it.
2) The Vampire’s ultimate goal is to actually take her body, once she gained enough experience and power, as his is starting to disintegrate.
3) <DM Secret>
Step 4: Describe at least three people that are tied to the character. Two of them are friendly to the character, one is hostile. If you like, you can include an enemy of yours here as well, so I have an instant NPC nemesis to throw at you.
1) Her father, Count Peytn Nedraid. He loves his daughter, but is afraid of what she (possibly) has become.
2) Godwin D’Monteforte; A rich scion of society who is a music lover like her. They met at a conservatory which he patronizes and they both perform there.
3). The Vampire. A manipulative, stalkery bastard; he constantly gets her into trouble, but not so much that she can’t get out of.
Step 5: Describe three memories, mannerisms, or quirks that your character has. They don't have to be elaborate, but they should provide some context and flavor.
1) When getting to know someone, she will get inside a person’s personal space and take a deep sniff of their neck.
2) Takes a sensuous delight in clothing, bathing, expensive hotel accommodations, music...
3) Pretends she ‘has the vapours’ or a headache or somesuch when badly affected by Positive Energy.
