Lady Dimitrescu

Early life Alcina Dimitrescu was born into the noble Dimitrescu family sometime before the Great War, and through this ancestry inherited a hereditary blood disease, possibly porphyria cutanea tarda.[notes 1] Although her family traced their origins to Cesare, one of the four founders of an isolated mountain village in Europe, Alcina herself lived elsewhere, perhaps through a cadet branch.[6] At some point in her youth, likely the 1930s, she had a brief music career in the emerging Jazz scene, where she went by the name "Miss D" and played with a band called "The Pallboys" (one of their CD songs would later end up in the Winters' home decades later, with Rose Winters taking a liking to it). In the aftermath of the Second World War and the abolition of the nobility, Dimitrescu returned to her family's former lands, which had fallen under the control of a neopagan cult worshipping the Black God. Prior to 1958, at the age of 44, Dimitrescu was lured by the cult leader, Mother Miranda, to a crypt beneath the village cemetery, where she was surgically implanted with a Cadou parasite. The purpose of this experiment was to determine her viability as a candidate who could become host to a parasitic intelligence at a later date.[6][7] This experiment mutated Alcina's body considerably, granting her regenerative capabilities, retractable claw-like nails, and the ability to transform into a dragon-like monster and back again. Moreover, the parasite halted her aging process, maintaining her appearance perpetually. In spite of these impressive biological changes, the resulting mutation did not nullify her blood disease, requiring her to partake in a steady supply of fresh human blood to maintain her health. Her newfound ability to regenerate also resulted in her growing to inhuman proportions, which could result in her growing uncontrollably if left unsupervised. Miranda therefore judged Dimitrescu to be a failure. Advertisement As a Lord Although Dimitrescu was no use as a host, her claim to Castle Dimitrescu was recognized by Miranda and she was allowed to take residence in the village as one of the Four Lords, who would maintain order over the native peasantry while aiding Miranda in Cadou research.[8] Upon inhabiting the estate, Dimitrescu took over her family's vineyard and wine-distribution business as a means of supporting herself.[9]Relishing in her reclaimed noble status, Dimitrescu developed extreme caste-based views of society, seeing herself as second only to Miranda herself.[8] She openly loathed the other three house Lords, particularly Karl Heisenberg, whom she frequently argued with. She privately bemoaned that she was not Miranda's favorite, instead being treated the same as all the others. Despite this, Dimitrescu's alliance with the other houses allowed her to rule her castle with barbarous cruelty, regularly taking in new staff to replace those who had been taken to her dungeon to be killed and drained of blood for sustenance.Dimitrescu's own experiments with Cadou appear to have been limited, as the only confirmed instance was an experiment begun by Miranda and monitored by Dimitrescu. In this experiment, the corpses of three women were implanted with Cadou parasites. Over the course of about a week, the Cadou produced fly-like organisms which then consumed the flesh of all three bodies.[10] Having assimilated the DNA of these women, the flies merged to mimic their human shapes and slowly adapted their likenesses. Dimitrescu immediately formed a bond with these three women, whom she named Bela, Daniela and Cassandra, and came to regard herself as their mother.[11] They obeyed Dimitrescu without question, and were similar to her in that they were ageless and reliant on vampirism for sustenance. However, they were incapable of withstanding cold temperatures, thus remaining trapped within the confines of Castle Dimitrescu.Over the next seventy years, Dimitrescu and her daughters systematically consumed the flesh and blood of local peasants and servants alike. The blood of maids was extracted and combined with grapes to create Sanguis Virginis (Latin for "Maiden's Blood"), a traditional Dimitrescu family wine.[9] The female victims, now infected with Mold, lived on as Moroaicǎ and Samcă, while male victims were consumed and then hollowed out to be turned into scarecrows for the castle vineyard. Dimitrescu's reign of terror was not without resistance, however, as one villager is known to have stolen a family heirloom - the Dagger of Death's Flowers - in an attempt to assassinate her with its poisoned blade. The attempt failed and he was buried with the dagger in the Tower of Worship to keep it hidden from any others who might seek to harm her.[12][13]

Personality Alcina is a calm and collected woman of posh nature and elegant poise. She does not anger easily and can be snobbish towards those she thinks are beneath her. When she does get mad, though, her enticing appearance becomes a harbinger of wrath, and she is quite capable of holding grudges against those who have wronged her or failed her leader. Alcina has a strict, merciless, and cruel nature toward her maids, whose punishment ultimately leads them to their demise for breaking Alcina's rules.While arrogant and untrusting of the other houses, she cares for her daughters and is protective of them, and while she is very loyal to Mother Miranda, she is not above being displeased with her decisions. Though Alcina was loyal to Mother Miranda, she was willing to betray her so she could get revenge on Ethan for killing her daughters. She also, given her vampiric and cannibalistic needs, quite literally, sometimes plays with her food.Likely due to being mutated for decades and only having to answer to Miranda, Alcina has lost any human common sense and become delusional. She blames Ethan for killing her daughters, completely ignoring he only did so in self-defense because they were trying to kill him themselves. While assaulting him after hanging up on Miranda, she also says that he stole from her when nothing she would actually care about was taken. Alcina also had three chances to kill Ethan but blew them: his immediate capture, catching him in his dressing room, and surprising him in the dungeon.
