Aoibhe McKenzie (Ava)

Madame Aiobhe Grace McKenzie (a.k.a. Ava)

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Tall and curvy with platinum hair, emerald eyes and ivory skin. She is overall healthy in appearance and looks like she could both outrun you and tear you apart. She is incredibly graceful and seems almost incapable of losing her composure, but when she loses her temper you might want to run.

Body Features

Hourglass shape with perfect 42-34-42 measurements. On first glance she is so perfect looking that you would think that she had surgery as a mortal, but she's simply learned to wear exactly what she needs to wear to show off her classic hourglass figure.

Facial Features

Emerald green eyes, platinum hair and unnaturally sharp cheekbones. Blood red lips.

Identifying Characteristics

She has a small tattoo on the inside of her right wrist.

Physical quirks

She has perfectly arched eyebrows and nearly always has one raised. People often can't tell whether she's amused, judging or about to tear someone apart.

Special abilities

She is able to charm absolutely anyone for any reason. Any mortal who has been in her presence long almost invariably leaves completely in love with her. This is especially true of men.

Apparel & Accessories

When she is in her club, she is never without her shadow grey D'Lish robe and pearls... and nothing else.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Aiobhe was a rising star within the 1920's Vaudeville scene before she met Fiona. They met when Aoibhe was performing a show in New Eindie and after a weekend with Fiona she was completely smitten. They became inseparable and soon after Fiona taught Aoibhe the importance of a formal education. After her embrace she started taking classes and gained her PhD in Women's Studies. Until her death, Fiona was the head Madame of the burlesque theatre in Middlin City and CEO of Empress & Wheel. After Fiona's final death (which Aoibhe firmly believes to be a direct result of plotting by Cecilia le Brun, Aoibhe left the Camarilla and, with Krista Moore's assistance, transferred control of E&W, LLC. She founded the Pale Chalice and protects her girls fiercely.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Building her successful club after the death of her wife and turning it into a haven for women who have found themselves in an abusive situation. She has become somewhat of a mother for the most vulnerable women in the city.

Failures & Embarrassments

Her greatest regret is that she failed to save Fiona.

Mental Trauma

Watching her wife die in her arms.

Intellectual Characteristics

She is quietly brilliant. She's beautiful, so people don't always think of her as intelligent, but there is a brilliant mind behind those emerald green eyes and she knows exactly how to get what she wants from everyone.

Morality & Philosophy

Aoibhe is a feminist, first and foremost. She is a champion of women and will kill anyone who hurts her family; her girls are her top priority.

Personality Characteristics

Aiobhe seeks to confirm the plot around Fiona's murder and then avenge her death.

Likes & Dislikes

A quiet, private night in the club with her family.

Virtues & Personality perks

Vices & Personality flaws

Beautiful women are a weakness of hers.

Hygiene

She is always impeccably well dressed and fastidiously clean.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Ti, the owner of the Hotel next door to the Pale Chalice is more of an ally than a friend, but they respect each other and the businesses they've built.

Family Ties

None of Aoibhe's original blood relatives are alive, but her Burlesque troupe are her chosen family and she is incredibly protective of them, in particular Marilsa Coehlo.

Social Aptitude

She often finds ways to manipulate a given situation to her best benefit. She will either be the love of your life or you'll be pretty sure that you're going to die at any moment.

Mannerisms

She is measured and cool unless provoked. But she has a temper, which she uses to her advantage.

Hobbies & Pets

She leaves out food for the neighborhood dogs, but they do not live in the club.

Speech

She speaks slowly and with absolute care. She has no accent to speak of, which makes it difficult to discern where she came from.

Wealth & Financial state

She is independently wealthy thanks to her club and the money left to her when Fiona died.

Clan Bane

Toreador exemplify the old saying that art in the blood takes strange forms. They desire beauty so intensely that they suffer in its absence. While your character finds itself in less than beautiful surroundings, lose the equivalent of their Bane Severity in dice from dice pools to use Disciplines. The Storyteller decides specifically how the beauty or ugliness of the Toreador’s environment (including clothing, blood dolls, etc.) penalizes them, based on the character’s aesthetics. That said, even devotees of the Ashcan School never find normal streets perfectly beautiful. This obsession with aesthetics also causes divas to lose themselves in moments of beauty and a bestial failure often results in a rapt trance, as detailed in the Compulsion rules.
