- 1857: Cressida is born outside of Syracuse, New York to an Irish Catholic family. She will later move into the city and become a factory worker

- 1890's-2010's: Cressida spends most her time in a large rural estate in upstate New York, performing research on the Abyss as well as human philosophy, theology and the natural sciences.

Cressida is intellectual, curious, and friendly. She has spent more of the past century with humans than with vampires and is learning more about the customs and structures of kindred life. She is deeply invested in her own esoteric philosophies, which center around the Abyss and its role as a source of primordial chaos. Her study of the Abyss has influenced the performance art she created in her estate in New York and continues to make in Boston, but also guides her strong political beliefs, which center on individual freedom and liberation.
Ties sought: Cressida has spent most of her unlife separate from vampire society, but if you are an Abyss Mystic or spent time around occult communities in upstate New York, you may have crossed paths with her over the course of the 20th Century
"She's got one foot in the unknowable, the other firmly grounded in good sense; I swear she could hold Boston together single-handed, if it came to it. There's no one I would rather have in my corner." - Becks Halloran
"Her magic’s terrifyin’, she worships the Abyss, and she's an anarchist. Cress ain't a normal vampire - and that's why I like ‘er!” - Jesse Morris
