Personality: Over the decades, Renfield has increasingly fallen into madness. She has developed a schizophrenic personality disorder. She is often plagued by abrupt mood swings. One moment she is completely calm, but the next she is totally manic. She avoids people and society and lives in the shadows of London. She speaks in a very rough and quiet voice, which she has used less and less over time. She is insane, but not malicious. Sometimes she just sits there and stares into space. She is forced by the spell of her master to feed on rats and insects. Sometimes she sings nursery rhymes like “Itsy Bitsy Spider” or “London Bridge is Falling down.” Sometimes she just sits there and hums to herself. She avoids eye contact with other people, except when she is manic. Then she has a habit of staring directly at people. She has no concept of personal space. Any normal upbringing no longer exists with Renfield. Sometimes she is more like an animal than a human.

Relationships: Ruth Margaret Renfield has no friends or other relationships. She is completely alone and abandoned. However, she is still a loyal servant of Dracula and is under his spell, although he has been dead for a long time.

Background: Ruth Margaret Renfield was once a young and ambitious lawyer from London. She wanted to achieve something in her life and show the world of men that women could also do hard work. However, her life changed when she traveled to Transylvania to sign a contract with a man who would twist her destiny forever: Count Dracula. The scourge of Eastern Europe. Using black magic and manipulation, he turned Renfield into his servant.

He tainted her mind. She was to serve only him and, as a thanks for his favor, received strength by eating lower life forms such as insects and rats. She traveled with Dracula back to England, where they soon met the infamous Van Helsing and others who were a thorn in the side of their master. In the end, Dracula lost his fight and died. Renfield, however, remained behind. Still trapped in his influence.

Now, 100 years later, Renfield is only a shadow of what she once was. Through Dracula's power, she had been granted an unnaturally long life. Living in the dark while she avoids society, which had changed so much over the decades, Renfield can hardly remember her former life. She is a shadow. A servant without a master, without a purpose in a world she no longer understands.
