Profile
Originally born in the 16th century, Jeannette was born to an impoverished noble family, and sent to live with the Countess Bathory. While in her 'care,' Jeannette's childhood was twisted and warped, her innocence robbed of her, by being forced to witness the Countess murdering all of her victims. Later, when she was betrayed by her socialite husband and ordered to be beheaded by the leaders of the Revolution, she became the Banshee, the Last Victim. Now, centuries later, she lives in luxury of her own design, and does as she pleases.
Sheet
Description
Jeannette is a voluptuous and attractive young woman with stark white hair and a heart-shaped face. She's pale naturally, although there is an undeniable (and probably artificial) blush to her cheeks. She has long lashes and distinct but expertly applied make-up. Her eyes have a cloudy grey cast to them, crystalline and stormy. She has a certain wicked turn to her lips when she smiles.
History
Jeannette began her life as an impoverished noble girl sent to learn the courtly graces from the Hungarian Countess Bathory. The Countess was a cruel and sadistic individual, decadent in her tastes, and enjoyed making sport of the lives and suffering of those around her. She took a particularly liking to Jeannette and, forcing her to witness all the atrocities she visited upon her victims, always told Jeannette that she would 'save her for last'. It is for this reason that she is known to some as the Last Victim.
After the Countess was tried for her crimes, she was sentenced to lifelong imprisonment, with only Jeannette as her caretaker, the two lone nobles of those involved. Painstakingly and with a vicious regularity, Jeannette put ground glass in the Countess' food, ensuring her a very slow and painful death over the course of months. When the Countess died, Jeannette went on to live a mostly decent life as the wife to a very rich nobleman. However, when the Revolution came, her husband sold her out to save his own skin, and she was to be beheaded. She gave her last, most precious possession, her mother's necklace, to the executioner in exchange for a swift death, but was denied even that. Sloppily drunken, and with comedic pantomimes of his hard labor, it took him no less than five strokes to remove her head from her shoulders. After the third blow, out of her mind with torment and sorrow, the girl she'd once been left her body, and she met the banshee.
Personality
Jeannette projects the image of a decadent hedonist, an uncaring sociopath who lives for pleasure and is amused at the weakness of others. And, to some degree, that's true. She's insouciant and sharp-tongued, playful and wicked, uniquely sadistic. She likes to play games and tends to treat other people as playthings. She has difficulty empathizing with mortals and can feel the distance of her centuries of life between her and others.
Abilities
BANSHEE FORM
Jeannette has the ability to transform herself into an empowered banshee form. In this body, she resembles the monster she is, with a death's head printed on her features, chalk-white skin, hair that floats of its own accord and eyes clouded over. In her banshee form, she has greater strength and speed than her normal form. As the banshee, her strength increases to around 40 tons, her physical resilience becomes superhuman enough to make her skin bulletproof and her speed doubles to ten times mortal reaction and reflex. She can maintain banshee form for about twelve consecutive hours, less if she uses her powers extensively, after which she will be forced to return to her less formidable form and will not be able to become the Banshee again for another twelve hours.
DEATH SENSE
Jeannette can casually see and hear the spirits of the dead. She can also see the stain of murder and violence on someone's aura. She even smells it, in her own strange way. She finds being around people who have committed evil acts to be intoxicating and a little bit addictive.
FLIGHT
In her banshee form, Jeannette is capable of flight through psychokinetic means. She has a top speed of around 200 miles per hour.
SCREAM
The core of her power, Jeannette's banshee scream has an overwhelming psychological and physical impact which tends to leave most living beings quaking. The scream has a physical impact, a sonic blast with a concussive force equivalent to a few sticks of dynamite. The primary effect, however, is empathic. Anyone who hears her scream will be subjected to the horror and pain she suffered at her death, often leaving them weeping, overwhelmed, paralyzed. The weak-minded and the traumatized may be fully broken, left catatonic by the force of her pain. Her power only works on organic beings with the ability to sense and feel, and will not effect inhuman creatures such as robots, golems, or certain types of aliens.
UNDEAD
Skills
BUSINESS
Jeannette has been running various dens of sin for the last few hundred years. She knows how to maintain a business, especially an illicit one, manage her money and manage employees. She is extremely shrewd in her own way and can be difficult to deal with in negotiations (or arguments).
MANIPULATION
Jeannette knows how to use people. She can read others with great skill and learned at the feet of a master in Countess Bathory in how to get what she wants. She's able to lie and deceive with great ease. She has foresight and planning skill that allows her to pull peoples strings and trick them into doing her bidding without anything so complex as mind control.
VIOLENCE
Resources
EXPERIENCE
Jeannette has lived for a very long time. She has seen the world come and go and is as jaded and cynical as they come. Her lifetimes of experience have made her wise, patient and savvy to the world and often give her an advantage when dealing with mere mortals.
NOCTURNE
Jeannette currently is the owner of a Bludhaven casino and hotel known as the Nocturne. Nocturne has a rather Gothic/Victorian theme and the decor generally is suited entirely to her taste. The business of sin is always good. The building itself is massive, with over a hundred rooms and a large casino, numerous works of art and a massive private area reserved for Jeannette's personal use.
WEALTH
Weaknesses
BAD COMPANY
Jeannette is drawn to death and violence. She finds the presence of those with such stains on them to be intoxicating, addictive, almost entrancing. There are definitely a few strong downsides to being drawn like a moth to the flame of the psychotic, the murderous and the cruel.
EERIE
Jeannette's touch can be extremely cold and notably inhuman. People tend to notice if they spend too much time around her. Her unearthly aura makes the hairs stand up on the back of people's necks. While this can be useful and intimidating, people are usually on their guard around her. She makes them uneasy.
MAGIC
Jeannette is a supernatural creature and, like all such, there is lore and magic surrounding her. There are spells to control banshees, banish them, harm them, and contain them. Enchanted or magical weapons (including the fangs and claws of the monstrous, a magical sword such as the Ebony Blade or Soultaker, or Asgardian weaponry) will harm her as if she were mortal, including potentially extinguishing her for good. She will still regenerate such wounds, but only at about half-to-a-quarter of the regular rate and she can presumably be killed as a result.
TRAUMA
Banshee are born of suffering. The pain that Jeannette inflicts on others is, first and foremost, her own. She can become lost in ennui and numbness, can disassociate and generally suffers from rather severe post-traumatic stress. Being horribly executed will do that to a soul.
