Height: 5'8
Weight: 113 lbs
Appearance:
Civilian Attire: Ophelia always wears black. Occasionally, there will be a hint of dark red or dark purple. She mostly sticks to leather or velvet material, and her clothes are almost always easy to move around in, along with being skin tight.
Personality: Ophelia is a well bred lady, through and through. No matter how many people she kills, what actions she takes, there's always the underlying level of Aristocratic breeding in all of her gestures, words and general demenor. When laughing, she will cover her mouth coyly with a fan or her hand, and, unless it's an order, she will always send a 'servant' of hers to people to notify them she is visiting at least an hour before she arrives, even to another member of the Hellfire club, and each of her movements has a grace and feminine touch to them. She is well spoken and educated, which is shown in her speech patterns.
A large downside of her upbringing is the fact she's rather stuck up and snobbish, and resents people with no class or manners to even be within a few feet of her, never mind actually have physical contact or talk with her. She also dislikes the fact that not everyone is as 'well bred' or 'lady like' as she is. She is also, contrastingly, demure and modest, or at least pretends to be, as when complimented, she will look away as if embarassed. Such things have been engrained into her mind since the moment she was born until she took her last breath and no amount of time or training from her Master could erase.
However, the one part that she picked up from her'loose moraled' brethern, was a slight promiscuity, and she is not above using her body or feminine charms to get what she wishes. At first, she found herself disgusted by her lustful urges when she was first turned, until her Master explained to her that Vampires were sensual creatures, and the act of drinking blood was an extremely arousing and intimate action, so it was only natural that lustful feelings awaken.
Loyalty is also a key factor when looking at Ophelia's personality, as she is loyal to those she deems worthy without a single doubt - namely, her Master and by proxy, the Hellfire Club, refering to the other members above her as 'My Black/White King' or 'My Black/White Queen', but never refers to anyone minus Huey as her 'Master'.
Patience is also a strong point in Ophelia's personality, as she rarely looses her temper, going about things in a quiet and civilised way. However, when she is pushed far enough, her anger is prolific, and rooms have often had to be completely refurbished, redecorated and even renovated when she gets in such a mood.

The Villain
Codename: The Black Knight
Villain Attire: (See Appearence)
Powers:
Vampireism
Contamination : More well known as 'blood sucking', the vampire has a reputation amongst some as a negative image of Christ, who gave his blood to save men, she gives blood to corrupt them.
Ophelia sustains herself by drinking the blood of humans, and the more she has drank, the more powerful she has become. Although she can turn other people, she never does, due to the fact she does not see many worthy of the gift bestowed on her by her master.
She can also live on blood packs, which she gets from contacts at hospitals, a network that all vampires use and has been in place for years. However, blood packs, due to not being fresh, do not have the same properties as blood straight from a human, and are only used as a last resort or in dire situations. It is enough to quench hungry, but would not be able to strengthen Ophelia in the way fresh blood does.
Imortality : Ophelia does not age, except on some occasions when she has been deprived of blood for extended periods of time. However, she will be rejuvenated as soon as she gets fresh blood supply. Her powers have increased over the centuries with age and experience, and will continue to increase.
Invulnerability : Ophelia has remarkable recuperative powers and can't be harmed by conventional weapons. She is also immune to all forms of human diseases and illnesses. Only when in deep sleep is she somewhat subject to physical harm, and even then she is hidden deep underground and protected by other vampires.
Bullets and knives provide only momentary distractions for her, as she can heal from such injuries within minutes. Moreover, she only feels slight pain from such conventional attacks. Under optimum conditions (i.e - when she has been feeding regularly) she almost never gets physically tired.
Strength/Reflexes : Ophelia has acquired superhuman strength, which gives her the strength to lift maybe 18 tons, when she has just eaten her fill and pushes her self.
Moreover, her speed, and reflexes are five times as great as a human. She also possessess acute hearing (equivalent to that of a wolf) and night vision, enabling her to see with better than 20/20 perceptibility in total darkness.
Hypnose : Much like a snake or bird, Ophelia can control the will of humans through a form of hynosis - such as, if she managed to catch someone in her gaze, she could make them stay still as long as the eyecontact is maintained and control their actions, but not their voice.
Agility : Ophelia has extra enhanced agility, so much so that she can easily jump roof tops with no effort and can even jump over 10 meters into the air effortlessly.
Animal Hypnose : Much like her ability to control humans to a minimum degree, Ophelia is able to control various 'lower' nocturnal creatures, such as the wolf, bat and rat, if they are in the same vicinity as her. Ophelia prefers to control bats, as they take up less concentration and brain power, plus have the ability to convay more fear than the other two.
Skills:
+ Firearms - Over the years she has been 'dead', Ophelia had been trained by her master (or tutors he has found, if he himself did not have time/was not knowledgeable enough to train her) in most types of gun, from antique pistols to brand new machine guns and sniper rifles. (Pistols, revolvers, rifles, sniper rifles, machine guns, rocket launchers.)
+ Swordsman/Weapon expert - More proficient in this than her firearms, Ophelia has been trained in the following weapons ; Broad sword, axe, bow and arrow, cross bow, long sword, mace, various types of whips, daggers, rapiers.
+ Languages ; Ophelia is fluent in French, Latin, Italian, Spanish, English, Russian and Romanian. She can also hold conversations in Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Arabic, albeit not as fluently, along with 'Fan Language' which is Aristocratic language made up of hand movements, gestures and facial expressions with the use of a fan.
+ Painting/Drawing ; Something from her 'human' days, Ophelia can draw an exact likeness of someone she has only seen for a few seconds, but can also draw artistic landscapes and pictures.
Special Equipment: Two Walther P99 Rads.
Various weapons and fire arms (listed in skills)
Weaknesses:
Powers -
Vampireism
Invulnerability : Ophelia can be hamed by weapons made of only the purest silver, and these will cause a lot of pain, however, her supernatural restorative abilities allow her to recover quickly from such injuries.
There are only two known surefire was to kill Ophelia - or any of her kind. A wooden stake threw her heart and decapitation.
Hypnose - If someone covers the hypnotised persons eyes, even for a second, the hold over them is broken. Also, telepaths and people with mind based powers are completely immune.
Also, as is common with vampires, Ophelia is unable to go out in the sunlight without burning. If exposed for only a few brief seconds, her skin will blister and burn. If in the sun for over a minute, she will turn to ash.
Criminal Record: Ophelia LaForet does not exist in any records. She was killed along with her family in the French Revolution in 1793.
Henchmen: A small group of nameless humans who she uses as her 'Feeders', people who willingly give her their blood to live on as a form of sexual stimulation.
History:
Born in 1771 as the youngest child in a rich French aristocratic family in Paris, life was good for Ophelia, although she was always a very weak child, due to a weak immune system and severe anemia.
As a sickly child, Ophelia was often kept indoors, in isolation from everyone but her parents, siblings and servents. In fact, minus the family and servents, no one else knew that the youngest LaForet daughter even existed. Although her elder sister, by 4 years, Claudette, resented Ophelia for being the prettier daughter - Claudette was often seen as plain and normal looking, with a non-interesting face and mousy brown hair , where as Opehlia had been born with snow white skin, jet black hair and piercing blue eyes, along with a delicate, china doll like face - and getting more attention from her parents due to her weakness, her elder brothers doted on her non-stop, treating her like a Princess, and also calling her their 'Princesse'.
When the French Revolution came in 1789, the LaForets were worried for their livelyhoods and, of course, their lives, although they didn't dare show it to their darling Ophelia, in case it made her ill. Thus, Ophelia was not told about the revolution, and continued to live in ignorance about the dangers they were facing.
A few years later, in 1793, only a week before her families deaths, Ophelia began to hear beautiful songs at night, feeling like they were being sung to her and her alone, in a deep masculine tenor, using words she couldn't understand but having a strangely hypnotic and relaxing affect.
The night before her family was hauled out of their mannor and executed - although she would have been safe, as her loyal maid was to smuggle Ophelia out as a servent if anything was to happen - Ophelia heard a voice calling to her from outside.
Silently, she crept from her bed towards her windows, peering threw the curtains, only to see a man dressed in the richest clothes standing below the balcony.
The man motioned for her to come out, and for reasons she didn't quite understand, she instantly agreed, sneaking threw her sleeping household without waking anyone, and stood at the kitchen door, where the servents came in and left from, and deliveries were taken, standing in her simple white ankle length nightgown, long raven hair unbound, snow white skin practically glowing in the moonlight.
The man stalked towards her, almost dangerously, but Ophelia felt no fear.
"S'il vous plaît venez à monsieur."(Please, come in sir.) She told him, her voice quiet and light.
Once inside, they spoke, the man telling her his name - Huey LaNoire - reply that he already knew her name, as he had been watching and researching her for many years. For some reason, once again, she didn't feel scared.
He then told her, as he reached for her hand and stroked his thumb over her knuckles softly, that bad people were coming this way, for her family. That he could save her, but no one else.
She refused, claiming she couldn't simply leave her family knowing they would die. Huey, however, didn't give her the choice.
The next thing Ophelia was aware of was an intense burning pain throughout her body, which soon made way for a delicious and addictive feeling of power and strength, which for such a weak and sickly child, was something she'd never before experienced.
Everything was fuzzy after that. She remembered latching her mouth onto his wrist, her lips sealing themselves around the vein he had opened with his sharp teeth, sucking his essence hungrily, before having it wrenched away.
She then felt herself being carried, effortlessly, cradled in this strange mans arms like a sleeping infant, out into the cool night air, before wind rushed past her as he ran smoothly into the night.
The fuzzy feeling lasted a full week, which she spent much time sleeping, and mourning the loss of her family, only waking up to drink more blood from the man she had become so attached to, calling him 'Master' willingly.
After that, he taught her. He told her she was now a vampire, as was he. But he was an elder. A Vampire Regent even, hundreds of years old already, one of the oldest and most powerful around, with hundreds of minions, of which she would be his most trusted, his most loved. When she asked why, he told her, with a gentle smile, she was the identical image to his daughter, from hundreds of years ago, back when he was still human. He trusted in her, and her alone, his history, or at least part of it. When he had been turned, his daughter had come looking for him, finding him laying on the ground outside of their rural village, bleeding and feeling his insides burning, his sire having abandoned him. In an insane rage, he had killed his daughter, draining her dry. He'd regretted it every day of his Vampiric life. And now he had Ophelia, who he would never let any harm befall.
He trained her, as well as teaching her of the vampires ways. She was trained in fighting, with swords and fire arms aswell - both rifles and flintlock muskets, along with others. Her training had to be stopped however, for 50 years, when, at the start of the 1800s, she fell into a deep sleep, which is common for her kind.
In 1850, she awoke to her master stroking her hair, telling her he had missed her and her company. He explained what had changed in the world during the 50 years she had been asleep. Straight away, after she had fed enough, her training restarted. She was then introduced to 'The Hellfire Club', in their Parisian branch, where her master was the Black King. Although she had no title, she was seen as a somewhat member, due to being the Black Kings most trusted servant and also, his body guard.
During one meeting, The Black Rook made a vulgar and distasteful comment about Ophelia, which caused her Master to feel an intense rage.
The next day, the mans quarters were painted with his own blood, his body torn to pieces. It was then everyone took heed - you did not insult or harm Ophelia LaForet, lest you wish to be killed by the fearsome Noire Roi (Black King).
In 1900, once again, Ophelia slept for another 50 years, this time her master sleeping also. Once again, she awoke to her master standing over her. It was 1950.
Huey had, however, grown bored of France and all it had to offer, so with that, on nothing but a whim, they left for America, Ophelia sneaking her master onto a cargo ship, hiding him below decks and bringing him crew and other passengers who did not have enough money for commercial ferries and boats to feed him.
In America, they lived a lavish life, from the riches that Huey had acquired by both respectable and non-respectable means. They lived in a large manner in Lousiana, the locals thinking nothing of them but a father and daughter.
After 10 years, and suspicion growing around them due to the fact neither had aged a single day, along with the fact locals had been going missing regularly since they had arrived, Ophelia and her Master left , going from place to place, (Philadelphia, Chicago, New Orleans) never staying for more than 10 years, or until they were under suspicion.
Finally, in 2030, Ophelia's master went into a deep sleep, and Ophelia remained awake. She was lost at first, before having an invitation to the Hellfire Club's New York City group extended to her in 2036. Knowing her master was still loyal to the club, she agreed, becoming the ever loyal Black Knight, taking on the roll of assassin and bodyguard for the group.
