</div><br/><br/>The guards stationed inside the throne room suddenly stood up straighter, each one reacting at the same moment as if sensing something only they could see. Moments later the doors to the throne room opened and Queen Verisalia strode in, her high heels clicking on the marble floor as she moved.<br/><br/>Beautiful, seductive and extremely deadly, Queen Verisalia had ruled the kingdom from her dark castle for centuries. Little was known of her childhood years except that she was a sickly child born into nobility and wanted for little as she grew up, receiving the best education and displaying an unusually sharp intellect from an early age. Her parents were stiflingly overprotective of their beautiful and talented daughter, bringing tutors into their estate to teach her so she wouldn't have to leave and experience the world outside their gates. When Verisalia turned 18 she began exploring more of the world outside the estate and caught the eye of a cunning and handsome vampire named Eklund, who introduced her to the city's underground party scene. The young beauty was quickly captivated by the experiences before her and after years of sexual repression threw herself wholeheartedly into a world of parties, sex and and physical pleasure, experimenting with both men and women as she discovered more about herself. Eklund would eventually come to seduce her into vampirism, converting her in the hopes of making her his thrall and personal eternal sex toy. Verisalia had other ideas and proved difficult to control, having used her status and intellect to forge connections both among the nobles and the criminal underworld. Unable to manipulate her as he had hoped, Eklund instead plotted to have Verisalia captured and restrained by luring her to a party taking place in the city's catacombs, only for one of Verisalia's admirers to tip her off about the plot in advance. The trap meant for her was instead turned around on Eklund, leading to a fight between him and Verisalia in which he was easily dispatched. The beautiful vampire took his head as a trophy and presented it to the criminal underworld as proof of her abilities, earning her greater respect and an undeniable sense of fear from those running the city from the shadows.<br/><br/>As her connections and influence grew many attempts would be made on her life over the years, each one as futile as the last. The hostility she faced from the mortals who feared her abilities stirred resentment inside her and as she punished those who would threaten her life by extinguishing theirs Verisalia developed a taste for bloodshed and cruelty. Her family's estate was set upon and burned to the ground, killing her parents and staff, which proved to be the final push Verisalia needed to declare a quiet war on the mortals. Casting aside her humanity and identifying only with her vampiric nature, Verisalia used her intelligence, charms and sex appeal to seduce men and women she could convert into vampires, creating her own clan and slowly growing her power base. At the same time she would ensnare the senses of men and women who were useful to her, inciting uprisings and coups within both government power bases and the criminal underworld while pitting the two against each other. With both factions weakened Verisalia easily established power over them, enthralling key figures and<br/>converting them to vampirisim or having them killed and replacing them with members of her clan.<br/><br/>With her control over the kingdom tightening, Verisalia did the one thing left to make her power unassailable, seducing the King behind his Queen's back and enthralling him into thinking only of her. Once she was sure he was under her control, Verisalia set about seducing the Queen as well, enjoying the thrill of being with both partners while turning them against one another. She convinced the Queen to try and kill her husband, a plan which naturally failed just as Verisalia had intended and left the King with ample grounds to imprison and divorce his wife. Verisalia and the King began openly courting and were soon married, making Verisalia his Queen and removing power from his former wife, who Verisalia still visited to have sex with in the castle's prison cells. Verisalia bided her time, safe in the knowledge that once the King passed she would be the sole ruler of Mivion, and after three years she had one of her clan assassinate the King while he was in the royal courtyards.<br/><br/>With her power over the kingdom secured, Verisalia continued to convert the populace into vampires, finding a particular taste for enthralling and seducing elves due to their natural beauty. Her desire to sexually dominate and convert the populace races only grew with time and the kingdom gradually became a dark capital of seduction, sexual pleasure and carnal desire, molded in the image of its eternal Queen who now seeks to expand her power base beyond her own kingdom.<br/><br/>Her long black hair shone in the candlelight as she strode up to her throne, walking with class and purpose toward the symbol of her authority. She turned and sat upon the royal chair, looking out upon her court of fellow vampires.. Each one was her creation, reborn from their simple mortal lives into an immortal existence of infinite pleasure and opportunity in exchange for their eternal loyalty and servitude.<br/><br/><br/>"My my, how good it is to see you all here. It's been far too long since we were all gathered together in this way" she said, addressing the room at large.
