For reference, the Seneschal of the city.  You will notice that she has incredibly high stats.  However, has no specializations and cannot gain experience.  Therefore, she won't really be able to adapt as other characters grow more powerful.<br/><br/>Name:  Eliza MacTaverny<br/>Covenant: Invictus<br/>Concept: Savage Alpha Wolf<br/>Virtue: Fortitude<br/>Vice: Lust<br/>Clan: Gangrel<br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>Power: 6  (Intelligence -4)         Finesse: 2          Resistance: 4<br/><br/>Mental Skills:<br/><br/>Academics: 0    Crafts: 1        Investigation: 4<br/><br/>Physical Skills:<br/><br/>Athletics: 4    Combat: 4 Stealth:   3<br/><br/>Social Skills:<br/><br/>Persuasion: 3    Socialize: 3     Streetwise: 2<br/><br/>Merits:<br/>Striking Looks +2 (4)<br/>Resources  6<br/>Status (Seneschal) 4<br/>Status (Invictus) 4<br/>Retainer (Enkidu) 5<br/>Allies (Wolves) 3<br/>Brawling Dodge<br/>Direction Sense<br/>Iron Stamina 3<br/><br/>Disciplines:<br/>Animalism 5, Majesty 3, Protean 4, Resilience 2, Vigor 1<br/><br/>Willpower:   1/8   Health: 9   Defense:   2    Blood: 5   Blood Potency: 6<br/><br/>Background:  Eliza was born in Scotland in 1638.  She was a tough child who loved nature, a tomboy who did not fear the darkness of the forests at all.  A vampire who favored wolf form took a fancy to her, and began stalking her, using the creatures of the forest to lure her into traps.  Eventually, she became a ghoul of the wolf, until she was spotted during one of her nightime meetings with the wolf and tried for witchcraft.  She was convicted, burned at the stake, and tossed into the river, yet she held on for love of her master.  The wolf found her as she died, and embraced her as a vampire.<br/><br/>Eliza then dedicated herself to becoming a monster, terrorizing peasants for many years.  However, she became lonely from lack of human contact, and eventually tried to rejoin the human community.  She was arrested for witchcraft a second time, and knowing that she could not survive being burned at the stake again, she transformed into a bat and made her way to a ship headed for the new world, trying again to make a new life for herself.<br/><br/>Eliza spent the next two centuries as an unaligned nomad, traveling the length and breadth of the land that became the United States, moving on to stay just ahead of the march of civilization.  Eventually she came to the pacific ocean with a gold rush on her tail, and realized that she had to adapt to some kind of social order to survive.  Eliza became a founding member of the Invictus of Seattle, and has lead the covenant for the past 88 years.  Eliza is known as the "Eternal Seneschal" or less politely, the "Great Hound."  She has little ambition, seeking the position of Seneschal only to allay her insecurities about living in society.  Recently, she has realized that she can no longer subsist on human blood, and must take a childe to survive.  She has already selected a candidate...<br/><br/>(Note: Eliza's blood potency is actually halfway between 6 and 7.  Currently, for every three lethal wounds she causes to a human in the course of feeding, she receives 1 vitae.   Every week, the number of lethal wounds that must be caused to recover a vitae increase by 1)<br/><br/><br/>Name: Enkidu<br/><br/>Abilities:<br/><br/>Power: 5  Finesse: 4 Resilience: 5<br/><br/>Physical Skills:<br/><br/>Athletics: 4 Combat: 4 Stealth: 3<br/><br/>Disciplines: Vigor 3, Resilience 2, Protean 1, Animalism 1<br/><br/>Background: Enkidu is a black dire wolf, and has been Eliza's constant companion for 146 years.  His loyalty to her is more than can be described in words, as she would crumble into dust if she were were separated from his master for more than a month.  Enkidu and Eliza share a powerful bond, to the point that they are almost one individual.  Eliza never goes anywhere without Enkidu, if it is practical.<br/><br/>
