Once upon a time, Mary was a pitiful little maid who fell in love with a young lord. When her love came to her as a vampire, she accepted his gift. Now, she is a vicious creature of the night, bent on vampiric world domination. That and her own amusement.

Timeline

Timeline:
1570: Born in Britain.

1591: Hired as a servant girl to the Bennett family. Mary begins a secret affair with the young lord Andrew, who she dreams of running away with.

However, one night Andrew leaves her a note about how they would never be able to truly stay together, before seemingly abandoning Mary and leaving her to the lecherous devices of his father.

A scorned Mary prays to God to punish Andrew for breaking her heart like this. A year later, she sees the punishment for herself when Andrew returns to her as a vampire, his turning apparently being the cause for his disappearance.

Out of love, she willingly allows Andrew to turn her into a vampire so that they may be together forever. While Andrew had managed to maintain some semblance of humanity, the transformation makes Mary more vicious and bloodthirsty, as she uses her newfound power to take revenge on Andrew's father, killing him.

She then abandoned Andrew as he had once abandoned her, her thoughts turning towards extending this revenge against Humanity as a whole.

2012: With the formation of the Justice League, Mary's resentment towards humanity was inflamed. The rise of Metahumans and Mutants meant that mankind and vampires were destined to come to head with one another. That was a war she intended on winning.

She travels, turning humans into vampires and convert them to her cause, forming a fringe cult known as the Blood Red Moon, formed around total vampiric supremacy, with her as their blood queen.

2022: By now, the Cult of the Blood Red Moon has decided to become a more active threat. Mary is on the path to being a force to be reckoned with, but she still needs more if she ever hopes on supplanting humanity.

Personality

Click to expand.

Ambitious:
Mary is a megalomaniac who thinks herself a freedom fighter. In her own words, she believes herself to be "Martin Luther King, Malcom X and Ben Franklin all rolled together". She tires of the vampires having to spend their lives in hiding from the humans, and seeks to liberate vampirekind from this human "oppression." She wants the rule the world and not much will stop her.

Carefree:
One wouldn't be able to guess that Mary was hundreds of years old by how she carries herself. Despite her vicious and gruesome nature, Mary is never one to take much seriously. She adopts the current lingo of the times flawlessly, and often pokes fun at those around her. It's almost disarming in a way, which serves to make her even more dangerous.

Vicious:
Don't take her tongue-in-cheek attitude for flippancy. She is still a monster through and through. As a human she was demure and meek, but her transformation awoken awoke a deep ferocity from within her.She revels in bloodshed, even far for vampire standards and if that cocky exterior gets chipped through, expect her to get much more threatening much more quickly.

Character Sheet

Powers

Click to expand.

Enhanced Senses:
Vampirism has boosted Mary's innate senses, allowing her to sniff out warm-blooded humans, hear and see from far away. She's even able to sense the presence of magic.

Hypnotism:
With a look into the eyes, Mary can bend people to her will provided their will is lesser than hers. (Consent Based power)

Regeneration:
As befitting her immortal kind, Mary can heal from pretty extreme wounds. Being stabbed, shot and burned are practically inconveniences to harm to her, even if they still pack a punch

Transformation:
Mary isn't limited to her already normal body. She can change her body into animals, mist and if she's really pissed off, massive werewolf-esque monster forms.

Vampire Physiology:
As a vampire, Mary possesses many perks that ordinary humans don't. She has no need for oxygen, food or drink and of course there are her lethal fangs and claws.

Vampire Strength & Speed:
Mary's strong enough to throw cars and fast enough to outrace them.She only gets stronger the more blood she has.

Skills

Click to expand.

Charisma:
Love her or hate her, you can't deny that Mary knows how to turn on the vampire charm and get people to listen to her. As befitting a literal cult leader.

Combat Skills:
Mary's no slouch in the fighting department. She knows her way around a fight, and won't hesitate to play dirty to win. Combine that with her vampiric powers and she's as deadly as it gets.

Resources

Click to expand.

Blood Red Moon:
Her loyal cult of vampiric servants. Though, not quite enough to make a full on army yet, Mary's got dozens upon dozens of loyal hench-vamps ready to shed blood on her behest.

Nomadic Tendencies:
Mary and her cult tend to travel a lot, as such they latch onto easy places to call lairs. Whether it's abandoned or they clear it out themselves.

Vampiric Connections:
As someone making her way in the vampiric underworld, Mary of course knows the right people amongst her kind to talk to. Her name carries some weight around and she'll throw it around when she needs.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

Bloodlust:
Try as she might, Mary is a slave to the hunger. Being starved of blood can weaken her, and in turn make her behave less rationally.

Decapitation:
As powerful as Mary's regen is, it has its limits. A sure-fire way to take her down is impaling her through the chest and cutting off her head.

Insecurity:
If there's anything that Mary hates more than humans, it's her past. Her past of being weak, helpless and meek. She seeks to distance herself as much as possible, and hates being reminded of it.

Sunlight:
The classic vampire weakness. Though, she won't burn up immediately, Mary's not as strong in the sun as she is out of it.
