Personal Information

Velika Pogreka, AKA Lee

Appearance

Lee is 5'1", but appears slightly taller due to almost always wearing heeled shoes or boots. She has blue eyes, weights around 110, typical pale skinned and looks 18. She generally either looks bored, amused, or sullen.

Personality

She tends to cut to the most simple solution (IE punch it, or whatever is most direct). She is driven by boredom, and will often poke at things to see what bubbles to the surface.

Mortal World

Currently the owner of Boire (Pronounced Bwah), in an old run down, used to be industrial area in Des Moines Iowa. She is known as fair, but tough, and well liked among those who work nights, due to her willingness to bring a hot drink, or lend a helping hand. The mortals think her strength and speed are due to an obsession with working out, and she is seen doing so a few times a week. Lee is very fast, and good with her fists, preferring brass knuckles to other weapons. She appears sometimes in Columbia MO, or Saint Louis (and also works part time at Hotel St. Jude as in house security), as event security at various clubs and concerts, as a independent security contractor, known for her efficiency and effectiveness. She has an Iowa liquor license (and is applying for one for herself in Missouri and a business Liquor license). Lee owns and rides an odd looking motorcycle. In late May she bought property in Saint Louis Missouri in an industrial section, and has gutted a building as part of a large renovation, signs recently have reveled this to be a new Boire location, opening date is tentatively late summer.

2017

• JAN - Invited the Ames court to | Boire |, sat around amused watching the random events flow around her without her really doing anything to help or hinder.
• FEB - Spent some time in Saint Louis, but was mostly in Iowa, obtained her Bartending license. Assisted Prince with cleanup after recent vampire prison break, and helped with backup and escort duties. Started Bartending at | Boire |a few nights a month, and spends some time working at Hotel St. Jude in Saint Louis as inhouse security.
• MAR - Took an arrow in the neck by Bronwen Johnson. Helped capture Henry Walpesh & Isabella Moore. Ties with both law enforcement and mob strengthened. In and out of Saint Louis.
• APR - In Saint Louis on and off. Made a deal with a local mage for info. Assisted hotel management with a break-in. Irritated the local prince, and was attacked at said neutral ground.
• May- In both Ames and Missouri at various times. Worked more to try to continue tracking Bronwen, but when it appeared she might be getting tracked back, would shift out of state for awhile. Helped at hotel with another off site adventure. Saw another vamp jail be both found and opened by various parties (some known, some prob unknown), almost blinded at hotel, and suspects hotel uniforms may appear soon due to said visual disturbance. Spent time scouting down near the river, for some reason. Rumor has it she may be shifting to owning two Rave's, looking to open second location in Saint Louis, in a less than respectable neighborhood. In late May she purchased land in Saint Louis and began obtaining permits to retrofit building into a Rave.
• JUN- Managed to meet both the Mayor, who she considers both terrifying and hilarious and offered the same entity opening night tickets (date TBA), and Calligula (who she did not offer tickets, yet anyways, ha!). Seen talking on and off with Hans, and working security at the hotel. The location for | Boire |was gutted, and is in the process of being retrofitted, and she has put out the word in regards to what she is looking for, for staffing (reaching out to both those in the business, those in The Families, and contacts with the area's supernatural communities). Shifted officially to the court in Saint Louis, and was both surprisingly asked to step in as Harpy, and accepted.

For Lee's Letters, a bit of OOC amusement: https://www.facebook.com/Lees-Letters-1014170882049680/ Imagine if Baba Yaga had ever maybe had a younger sister, and that sister happened to be a vampire. Yeah, that.
