Catherine Sonnenuntergang

Prince of the Crimson Courts
Catherine is a gorgeous woman of unparalleled beauty and power, as much power as she holds though, she maintains her position through extensive politicking; she manipulates anyone who enters her domain. Catherine is aware of the other supernatural creatures in Tacoma, and has had some communications with them; but as is Camarilla procedure, she maintains minimal diplomatic relations and nothing else.

She is known for her smug and seductive streak, two traits commonly associated with the Ventrue, furthermore, she rules through a hand of fear, the only reason why her council of primogen has not risen in revolt against her, is that they doubt they could reliably kill her.

She is however, considered to be somewhat butish by the Kindred of Tacoma thanks to her blunt attitude, while she will politic just as visciously as any other vampire, she will not hesitate to diplay her powers.

History
Disclaimer: This is not commonly held knowledge, If you want your characters to access it, you will have to quest for it.

She was born in Berlin in the 15th century, when Berlin was just beginning to start growing. She was embraced at 38 to a Baron in the areaand was raised under his wing before she moved on after about three decades. Where she moved after this point is unclear; rumors abound, some say she went to London, others put her in Switzerland, others in Austria. The most popular theory --and by far the oddest--, is that she was travelling in this time period, moving from place to place collecting and learning. It is known that she reappeared in normal history in America shortly after, or during the revolutionary war, coming to the aid of the colonies for unknown reasons. She then made her way, briefly, to New York City, staying there only a short while before she moved again to Tacoma in approximately 1870, a relatively new arrival. She ingrained herself into the city quickly, moving up through the ranks swiftly, by 1920 having asserted herself as Prince, as she wrested control from the old Prince in a bloody affair, for she had framed him for grevious crimes, forcing the Camarilla to hunt the old Prince down.
