She has been a table for decades serving the Inner Counci while Dominated to remember everything but to speak nothing to being posted various places over the Centuries using the mortals to un do the enemies of the Camarilla, very Cam loyal when she needs to be but has Mask everywhere if she needs to escape for a spell... she is an Assassins assassin, a horrific creature willing to whatever it takes to prove she is the Apex Predator in any environment she find herself in...

And Her Daughters are her arms and legs in this Spiders webs of deception and lies she is weaving through out the Centuries sitting at the Highest Seats of Power while just being an Arachnid of little power herself... like Kindred she is much more important in her own mind than she is in Her real life. She knows it to be true in her heart of hearts but she struggles just the same night to make it Untrue just for a fleeting moment of peace and quiet in her troubled, very trouble mind.

| − | In her mind all the stories are true and she must become the Baba Yaga lest she be consumed by it even if it just pyschology it is real to her and her imagination is to powerful to be ignore these nights of the Beckoning, She manipulates the First Light to eliminate her targets with precision as a collaborator and she is restless but she must move forward ever forward like a Great White Shark of die a death of insignificance which would be the worst fate for her.... and she is sleepless this night because of these truths she knows in Her heart but cannot even bring herself to articulate out loud for fear that her Ancient Great Grandsire will appear and make them true in the most gruesome manner.

| − | |bio=Backstory: Claudia Bathory, the Black Widow
| |
| − | Claudia Bathory was born in 1021 A.D. in the bustling trade town of Pressburg (modern Bratislava), within the Kingdom of Hungary—a region now part of Slovakia. As a mortal, she was the cunning daughter of a minor noble family, skilled in court intrigue and herbal poisons, navigating the turbulent politics of Magyar lords and Byzantine influences. In 1047, during a border skirmish with invading Pecheneg tribes, she was fatally wounded but Embraced by a shadowy Tzimisce elder named Viktor Draculesti(Actually Her Mother Cynthia in Disguise), who saw in her a perfect vessel for his vendettas against rival clans. Transformed into a vampire of the Tzimisce clan, Claudia adopted the moniker "Black Widow" for her habit of seducing and ensnaring powerful men, weaving webs of manipulation where mortals unwittingly carried out her assassinations. Her "sable coat" became her signature—a luxurious fur garment hiding vials of blood and alchemical toxins—while she gathered a coterie of "little children," ghoul orphans she molded into spies and saboteurs.
| |
| − | Over centuries, Claudia roamed Eastern Europe, from the Carpathian Mountains to the courts of Constantinople and later the New World, plotting the downfall of monarchs to destabilize domains and claim secrets of ancient blood sorcery. She relentlessly hunted the "Banu" (descendants of the Banu Haqim assassins who infiltrated Europe, seeking forbidden lore), viewing them as thieves of the world's arcane mysteries. A consummate diplomat by day and assassin by night, she hid in plain sight through masterful disguises and Obfuscate, using visits to royal courts as covers for her traps. Her schemes often involved proxy wars, where ensnared mortals—nobles, priests, and revolutionaries—did her dirty work, toppling regimes while she collected grimoires and artifacts tied to Gehenna prophecies.
