Fiorella Conti: A member of one of the most prestigious families of the Court of Fangs; Fiorella is something of an infamous figure in Lakecrest – an icon of the vampires to the city, yet one of the most loathed by the inhuman races she is supposed to represent. While most vampires in Lakecrest continue to act mostly undercover simply out of consideration of their somewhat bad reputation, Fiorella is especially vocal about her nature, lording herself over many of the other vampires in the city due to her powerful background. Acting as the manager of a local club that earns much of its popularity based on its glamourous owner and its supernatural reputation, Fiorella leads her own little gang of wannabe vampire counts and overly enthusiastic goths… however, the actual power they bear is mostly laughable; being almost entirely made up of whelps and common gangers (at the best of times).
In turn, most Mystic Kind and definitely vampires mostly just see her as a joke; and even many of the normal civilians of the city know of her over-the-top and laughably egotistic nature – but that said, she still holds some sway given her background (as she likes to remind people of at every possible occasion) and she is a reasonably powerful vampire despite her habit of trying much too hard to play up her abilities. Also, despite her bad reputation, she has made major steps in bridging the gap of fear between humans and vampires; due to both her actual efforts to make the vampire lifestyle easier and due to her over-the-top nature making her kind all the more normal.
Although eccentric, she could end up being a valuable ally for a vampire or any other Mystic Kind alike with her status in the city; albeit perhaps an obnoxious one – she does not see anyone else on the same level as her, not even another vampire. For those keen on getting a contact in the vampire hierarchy or being involved in the Mystic Kind politics of the city, she could be a wise choice in friend… but expect to do a lot of boot-licking to get there.
Andrew Ward: Notably young and ambitious. Ward clearly has dreams of becoming a vampire and gaining greatness like any humans who wish to be turned by a vampire. Like many before him, he is clearly a sycophant as he humors Fiorella's impulses and fancies. It goes without saying that much of of Fiorella's antics were at his own expense. But, of course, he isn't simply just your average 'slave' that he merely bows down his head to her. With an ambition like Ward's, he is also an opportunist. Additionally, with such an ambition, he isn't slow to make use of what power he has for his own purposes and clearly enjoys using it.
