Compassion
"Why did you have to kill me?"
Once a prostitute and troubadour of Almavira, Compassion is now a child of the night - a vampire. A graduate of the Artemisia Academy of Bards, she is trained in a wide array of entertainer skills: interpretive dance, ancient elven poetry, and the use of several instruments, especially the flute, lyre, shawm, and lute. She had made a bit of a name for herself among the commoners of Almavira, being a regular performer in the Sour Seagull Inn, even performing for the city's citizens and nobility alike in the Theatre of the Crystal Swan where she played Ophelia, a famous heroine in Drothic plays. An object of desire to many, she has earned the aspiration of allies and, yet, enemies.

Personal history
Abandoned shortly after her birth in the slums of Almavira, Compassion learned to use her charms to survive at an early age. Soon, she was taken in by a kind yet sickly foster mother named Marja, who cared for her and many other lost or abandoned children. Eventually, Marja passed away. Compassion, now a teenager, worked to scrape together enough money by selling her body on the streets of Almavira, trying to afford lessons in singing, dancing, and music. Eventually, she was found by Madame Solange, the owner of a brothel in Almavira that regulates the city's prostitution market. She became a more respected member of society at this point, gaining contacts and clients from around the great city, including members of the nobility and top brass. She was even able to save enough money to attend and graduate from the Artemisia Academy of Bards in Galerest.
Her fortune couldn't last. She was eventually taken prisoner by a rogue vampire who fed on her. While the Milksnakes rescued her, she did end up becoming a frequent target for the vampires - captured once again by the Blood Rose Coven, only to be turned by Lady Seraphina. That fateful day, Compassion died and was reborn as a vampire. Since then, she has been an elusive figure, committing several killings to sate her bloodlust and newfound thrill for the hunt, though her love for a priestess named Kobiel kept her grounded somewhat. However, for her own safety, Kobiel sent her back to Almavira to meet with the vampires of the Silver Moon Coven, which Compassion took as a sign of Kobiel's dismissal.
