Ah-kay-sha Ah-leen Luh-sair There is history and meaning behind each of her titles; all originating from her clan and home in Old Ireland. Her given name, “Akaicia”, was inherited in honour of her mother’s direct maternal death – the woman was admired and loved by all, especially Akaicia’s father. Her middle name, “Alainn”, was suggested by her grandmother and holds the meaning “beautiful” because she was a beautiful girl. As for her surname, “Lasair”, it’s her family’s traditional name and is an Irish Gaelic term for “a flame or blaze”. The woman holds each title with extreme pride, but rarely shares her true identity... Aliases: Madame Lasair, Lanista Lasair, Domina, Mistress, Red, Reddie, Aka. |
Species: Human | Race: Vampire Akaicia belongs to one of the original strains of vampirism, although, she’s not just any vampire. Before this particular strain was created, the clan consisted of various sorcerers and mages that specialized in elemental magic. The Lasair family excelled particularly with “fire”. The "Originals" longed for everlasting life, enhanced physical abilities, and most of all – power. In order to satisfy these desires, they performed a powerful ritual that would forever change the lives of their families and each member that was to come into existence. All of those transformed during the process of the ritual were gifted with all that they desired and more – not all necessarily beneficial attributes – and they were granted the ability to carry their elemental abilities with them into their eternal lives. |
The Lasair family originates from Old Ireland. Their exact location of origin has never been exposed but it’s known that their fortress was titled “Tir Na nog” or “The Land of the Young”. The fortress has been long abandoned and is now overgrown and crumbling. Because she was born and raised in Old Ireland, speaking an ancient form of Irish Gaelic, the woman’s accent is quite heavy and is considered a “hybrid” compared to most Irish accents. The lifestyle of the clan, while they were mortals, was that of extreme poverty; throughout their immortal lives most of them climbed the ladder to live the lives of nobles. |
The language of her youth is an ancient form of Irish Gaelic. Her fluctuating accent reflects a strange mutation of this language which is predominantly noticeable a majority of the time. Her knowledge of this language is unsurpassable; she possesses many forms of literature scrawled in this language and most of her free-time – what little she has – is spent reviewing these materials to keep the language fresh in her mind. This language is long forgotten amongst those of the mortal world and incredibly uncommon amongst the immortals. |
English is the language that is mainly utilized within her multilingual vocabulary. This only makes sense considering her preferred haunts. Most of those that she spends time with speak English, therefore, to ensure the best form of communication she favors the language that most seem to understand. |
She’s been around for many centuries and has relocated time and time again; there are very few realms in the world that remain a mystery to her. Throughout her journeys she’s come to master many languages; German, French, Italian being the most commonly used. The language of Ancient Greece is favored by her (beneath that of her native language) and she’s taken a particular fascination to its language and the culture. |
Deception is a face that she wears well; decorated with elegance and the mannerisms of a well-mannered noblewoman. Within the public eye she’s an exquisite feminine specimen, known for her formalities and admirable poise. Stunningly emerald eyes are always observing and analyzing her surroundings while her silver tongue is busy charming those around her. The gorgeous woman is never shy to bat her eyelashes towards the men in her life, graciously accepting any flattering remarks given in return. When within the walls of the arena or dank depths of the under hall, her dominant nature is vividly expressed but that elegant grace never abandons her. Despite wearing that wonderful façade of properness, she’ll always make it known that slaves are below her and meant to stay there – they’re treated well enough, should they deserve it. When it comes down to the matter of business, she'll twist her wonderfully seductive words into those of sweet promises and endearing compliments until she gains whatever benefits she originally sought after. L I K E S: Semi-sweet fruit wines, single malt whiskey, historical literature, refined music, violent scenarios, gore, having complete control over situations, being in the company of attractive and charming men, perfumes and scented bath oils, instructing, gambling, children. D I S L I K E S: Excessively loud or sudden noises, most females, losing, incompetent beings, her commands being ignored, cold environments, apples, the scent of wet dog, balancing ledgers. |
Beneath that painted porcelain mask of unwavering charm and flawless formalities lay something far more; wicked deception comes from years of experience. The vampire isn’t unfamiliar with the animalistic tendencies of the apex predator dwelling within her, in fact, she embraces them. Her attractive figure constantly boasts that dominant nature. Control is something she’s mastered – the temptation of hunting and consuming one’s source of life is always there but easily subdued until the correct opportunity arises. Beneath the surface of the composed woman dwells a temper fuelled by the very fires that she controls; quick to turn into a woman with venom rivalling that of the deadliest snake and boasting actions to match. With dangerous knowledge of the beauty she possesses comes the motivation to use it to her benefit; a wicked seductress, luring in men with her looks and charm – successful most of the time, in obtaining whatever she desired in the first place, before any sacrifices are needed to be made. There are very few that are foolish enough to disobey the woman. Those that do are quickly corrected. |
♕ I M M O R T A L I T Y, was the main goal the Lasair family yearned to accomplish with their ritual. Upon successfully completing the ritual, they obtained their goal along with numerous other benefits. But with these benefits, also came consequences. Akaicia is immortal in the sense that she's incapable of aging, and she's insusceptible to all ailments that generally befall upon the mortal race. This does not mean she cannot be killed. ♕ P Y R O K I N E S I S, is the ability to move, influence, manipulate, extinguish fire, and control hot temperatures with one's mind. Each true member of the Lasair family possesses this ability. Most have come to master it, Akaicia included. Throughout her years she's worked to gain every grain of knowledge regarding pyrokinesis; all forms of literature, verbal instructions, physical demonstrations, practice, etc. ♕ P Y R O I M M U N I T Y, is quite the advantage with an ability such as pyrokinesis. Pyro immunity grants her with an extraordinary immunity to fire and heat, whether it be a natural occurrence or a magical summoning. Walking through a raging inferno wouldn't effect her in any way (aside from singeing away any clothing that she may have been wearing). ♕ A C C E L E R A T E D Healing & Regeneration, an ability that she has been granted due to her supernatural lineage. Upon the completion of the Lasair's ritual for immortality, the entire bloodline was granted with numerous physical attributes including an enhanced healing capability and ability to regenerate severed limbs. Don't be mistaken, she cannot heal instantaneously, the process is simply hastened. Also, the course of time required for a wound all depends on it's severity. Regenerating a limb is also a lengthy and incredibly painful process. ♕ M I T H R I D A T I S M & Natural Immunity, is something she's thrived for. Being a vampire, she's supernaturally immune to a wide variety of poisons and toxins. There were a few that she hadn't been granted an immunity to, but through Mithridatism, she's ensured that she's developed a hardy (not entirely impervious, however) immunity to the remaining poisons and toxins that she would have otherwise been vulnerable to. ♕ E N H A N C E D Senses & Abilities, another gift accredited to her supernatural lineage. All of her senses were enhanced greatly, these senses include but are not limited to: hearing, sight, smell, touch. Along with enhanced senses, she's been gifted with multiple enhanced abilities such as strength, stamina and speed. She's quicker than most creatures, has a heightened pain threshold, and tires at a much slower rate than most. ♕ S A L I V A Compostion & Effects, Her saliva contains several compounds that prolongs her victims bleeding, such as anticoagulants that inhibit the blood from clotting, and compounds that prevent the constriction of blood vessels near the wound(s). Another chemical agent present in her saliva numbs the wound after several seconds of exposure (which can also be brought into effect during more provocative scenarios). |
♕ P H O T O S E N S I T I V I T Y, is an immune system reaction to sunlight, most often, an itchy red rash. The most common locations include the "V" of the neck, the back of the hands, the outside surface of the arms and the lower legs. In rare cases, the skin reaction may be more severe, producing hives or small blisters that may even spread to skin in clothed areas. She does have an enchanted ring that grants her protection from the sunlight but without that ring, due to this reaction, she'd avoid going out in the sun unless she absolutely had to. No, if she steps into the sunlight she will not spontaneously burst into a cloud of ashes. Another recent interaction has led her to the awareness that magic users that possess that ability to harness and concentrate the light of the sun pose quite a threat to her. Direct contact with concentrated light results in severely painful burns. ♕ C I R C U L A T I O N, her circulation system is less than optimal in most cases. This is caused by the unnatural characteristics of her blood. The usual crimson liquid doesn't flow through her. No, instead, her blood's a thick, metallic silver liquid. Because of the thick formation of her blood, it requires her heart to pump harder and slower. Because it flows slower, the temperature of her body is lowered a considerable amount. Instead of an average temperature of 37 degrees Celsius, her temperature usually measures around 28 degrees Celsius. ♕ E N E R G Y Fluctuations, are caused by the usage of any of her magical abilities; pyrokinesis, pyro immunity, accelerated healing, having her immune system fighting off any poisons or toxins. After any of these skills have been put to use, almost immediately, she begins to feel the strain of it. Of course, the amount of energy used all depends of the extent of the usage of the ability. ♕ D E C A P I T A T I O N or penetration of the heart, are the simplest ways to kill Akaicia. Decapitating her eliminates her nervous system and prevents the capability of regeneration because her body will technically be unaware of the fact that it has been injured. Where as penetrating her heart must been done correctly in order for it to be successful - or rather, with the right material. What it is that's needed for this to be successful is unknown to most and she's been quite vigilant about keeping it that way. NOTE: This is something your character would not necessarily know. Akaicia does not willingly expose her weaknesses to anyone, nor will I ever consent to the death of Akaicia. |
