Aurelia
Aurelia Savikas
Aurelia is a Vampire Spawn created by Cazador Szarr, and one of Astarion's pseudo-siblings.
She joined the spawn who fled into the Underdark after Cazador's death, becoming one of the leaders of the Ebonlake Coven.
Physical Description
Identifying Characteristics
She has a large burn scar that covers her cheek and part of her brow, the result of mistreatment by Cazador Szarr.
Her horns are black, relatively short and forward facing.
Special abilities
As a Vampire Spawn, she has enhanced healing and the ability to walk on walls. Her nails are tough, and can be used as claws, and she can bite her foes.
Prior to being taken by Cazador, she had recieved some magical training, primarily in Restoration, although much of the knowledge was lost during the centuries of torture.
Mental characteristics
Mental Trauma
Like all of Cazador Szarr's Vampire Spawn, she suffered extensive and horrific torture, and was starved, being fed rarely and only ever with animal blood.
However, she suffered additional tortures as Cazador's least favoured spawn. He seemed to have a particular hatred for her, even going so far as to mutilate her face and allow it to scar, despite it being in his best interests that she remain as attractive as possible.
She theorised this was due to a combination of Cazador projecting his own self-hatred onto her (Cazador was of a different species and ethnic background than his adopted family, and it's notable that Aurelia is the only brunette and the only Tiefling among Cazador's spawn), and prejudice against tieflings.
Intellectual Characteristics
She is generally reserved and a little shy, and dislikes violence. As a result, she has had to learn to be manipulative to survive life under Cazador's control, using her intelligence, percieved vulnerability, and tendency to be underestimated, as a weapon.
Social
Contacts & Relations
She is one of the leaders of the Ebonlake Coven, and is very protective of the younger members of the coven, especially the handful of Gur children who chose to join the coven rather than return to their parents.
Family Ties
All the mortal family she knew during her life are long dead. They do have descendants still living, including a cousin who is an Archmage and one of the Great Readers of Candlekeep.
She's nervous of her 'sibling' spawn, being generally the quietest and most reserved of her coven, but she does have some fondness for them, and is loyal to them.
