She is a gypsy in all senses of the world, a traveler, a collector and lover of beautiful things who avoids violence as much as possible even though she is relatively unflappable. Originally from rural Romania she traveled with a Roma caravan before she caught the eye of a Kindred through her entertaining performance and quick wit. The partnership was not to last sadly, as quite soon after their change of circumstances, their sire was called away and they last saw each other across a fence in Poland as they made their escape
