Estate
Victoria lives on the Romana Estate in Chicago. The estate itself is well guarded by paid security as well as Vampiric Servants and seldom admits visitors without invitation. Believed to be owned by the reclusive matriarch of the Romana family that simply has strikingly similar looks to her ancestor. In reality, it is the home of the city's master vampire. The site has acres of lush gardens, a large hedge maze, and even some wooded areas with a large palatial mansion at its center.
Background
Born in the Chicago area, Victoria came from a long line of vampires that controlled the region due to their knowledge and power in the region. She remained aloof from most others during her life, She learned how to make herself appear less vampiric, and how to blend in with the humans around her, this allowed her to go to school with humans and to get a considerable education over the years. She learned a lot about history and government. While her parents had control of the region she worked in the mayor’s office as a secretary for a time, and as an operative for her parents. She’d always had an affinity for magic, and it made her a powerful ally and asset for her family, with her magic and other skills she was a good natural deterrent from the interests that she and her family had.
Eventually the time came for her to take her place as Head Vampire for the region and let her parents enjoy their quiet retirement, she’s been the head vampire for around 20 years now, rather new in many cases, but she shows promise and fine diplomatic and leadership skills.
