Introduction

The product of an ill-considered Embrace and one very charming rebel, Beatrice is one of Silke's many followers, and over the last couple of years, she's quietly drifted onto the Camarilla's radar. While a lot of her time is spent shouting down Camarilla alongside her the Baron, she's still willing to sit down and talk problems over with members of the Camarilla - and even concede points to them.

Apparent Age: 21

Notable Traits

  • Blush of Health

Appearance

She favors simple, comfortable attire to match her easy-going appearance and nature. She's rarely without a bandana or beanie to keep her dreads out of her eyes, and usually opts for cheap t-shirts, flannels, and jeans. Meanwhile, the bangles and beads that constantly rattle on her wrists and dreads add a bohemian flair to her outfits.

Personality

Easy-going, relaxed, and unconcerned. Beatrice tends to let her own opinions take a backseat to those of the people around her around her; she's much happier to listen to theirs, agree with their merits, and then allow them to take the decision out of her hands. To be fair, she doesn't seem to have any strong opinions that aren't originally from someone else.

Mortal World

There's not much known about Beatrice - she was apparently a student at one point, but since then she's stepped away. These days, she keeps her relations with the mortal world as simple and unattached as possible, drifting along and slipping from stranger to stranger without an real focus in mind.

Information Known by Kindred Society

Not much. If her Sire's from the Anarch's ranks, they're probably dead. And if her Sire's from the Camarilla, then it seems nobody's figured out who it is. Yet. Alder d'Lumiere doesn't acknowledge her as one of her line, though, so that removes quite a few candidates. She's still hanging out in their Cammie haven, though, and it seems like they've stepped in to fill a void, after the breakdown of her and Silke's relationship.

The depth of her relationship with Silke is another puzzle nobody's willing to look into, either, beyond sharing some of the Harpies' gossip. It's apparently pretty intense, however. And broken beyond repair (or fixed, completely, depending on who you ask.)

History

Beatrice has only started attracting notice in the last few years; previously, she's done a remarkable job of keeping off the radar. She's mentioned, however, studying politics at one point, and there's the occasional report of her curving up the waves out at Stradbroke or Moreton Islands.

Loneliness:
a limbless spider entangled in
its own web
writhing and trying to
break free--
as it's slowly eaten by flies
A piece of graffiti on a wall near North Stradbroke.
"The Anarchs don't want that much, beyond shelter, food, safety, and a place to belong; the problem is, the Camarilla isn't willing to let them have it. I imagine that's why they cut loose in the first place."
Beatrice, musing on politics.
"I wanted something. Someone. Something I'd come up with on my own, instead of following someone else. Do you know how hard it is to deal with that? To want someone so badly - the first time you've really wanted anything - and watch them with someone else?"
During break-up recovery with Conrad.

"Yes. Yes. Hang on, I think the Prince is watching us..."
Kate briefly turns to look.
Beatrice Obfuscates.
"FUCK!"
Kate Horton and Beatrice discuss their mutual ex-girlfriend.
"You silly, stupid girl. Your childish outburst has brought down a dream, endangered the tenuous peace we have built here, doomed Kate, doomed me, imperiled yourself, and may have killed every last remaining Anarch in this City. And all because you could not control your emotions. C'est vraiment de ta faute."
"Emotions? You broke my heart! Can you even understand why I'm mad?"
"... I used to think you were a good soldier. Now I know you are not even that."
Silke with Beatrice, April, 2014.

Rumors

  • May possibly be the least politically motivated of the Anarchs.
    • Makes sense: she looks and acts like a follower, and certainly doesn't seem to make decisions on her own.
  • Has a bad habit of poaching in Stone's territory of Spring Hill.
  • Somehow, Silke's wrapped her around her finger until she's more tightly coiled than a spring.
    • Poor thing.
      • More like a lucky thing: there's a lot of Camarilla who'd like to change positions with her.
  • A lot of gossip says she's the ill-considered decision made by one of Brisbane's roses, who let their feelings get the better of them.
    • The top candidates are none other than a certain Prince, followed closely by his Sire...
  • Regularly competes with Silke to see who can seduce the most Campires.

Inspirations and Soundtrack

Film & TV

'Clark, things always get messy when you start throwing around the Clark-Lana triangle, and I'm speaking from experience when I say the third point always hurts.'

Literature

'So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.'

Music

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection. The lovers, the dreamers and me.
Chill out, it's all right. Kiss me. It's nice to be alive.
There is a lady all in white, holds me and sings a lullaby. She's nice to see and she's soft to touch. She says 'Cosette, I love you very much.'
Never was a traitor, never laughed, never thought I'd won...
The pains of love, and they keep growing / In my heart there's flowers growin' / on the grave of our old love / Since you gave me a straight answer
First you need. That's what you get for falling in love. Then you bleed, you get a little but it's never enough.
