Win Roden

ABOUT
Winifred Roden was born in 17th century England, in a modest village to a family of farmers. She was poor, but beautiful, which garnered her plenty of unwanted attention in a time when women were treated as little more than a commodity. There was little she could do to defend herself, especially when earning the attention of the Duke. He elected to have her as his woman, taking her from her home, wedding her under the eye of the church, and demanding she provide him strong, healthy sons. As time went on, Win found it difficult to conceive, which made the Duke very angry, which manifested in a physical way.

Miserable, afraid, and broken, Win was losing hope and contemplating taking her own life. It was then that she was approached by a strange but maddeningly handsome man, who offered to save her from this misery. He was an incubus, who offered to give her great power in exchange for her soul. She would become a demon, like him, but ensure no man ever took advantage of her again. She agreed.

The power she earned was immense, but she did not want to put a target on her back or garner the attention of the church. So instead she murdered the Duke discreetly, claiming his authority for herself, and using her abilities to expand her control. Eventually, she was a dominating force in the region, and became known as Lady Roden--the deadliest beauty in all of England. She made history, but would not remain there as the world progressed. As the years passed she took on new identities, all claiming to be direct descendants of 'Lady Roden'.

In the modern age, she commands the domain of a different sort. Founding an immensely wealthy advertising firm, she serves as CEO and basks in her successes. She oversees her business with an iron fist, while gaining a reputation across media platforms as the dangerous beauty everyone wants to work for.

PERSONALITY
Win is mysterious in many ways, preferring to keep people guessing. She believes she can control them better that way. She's domineering and almost predatory in her approach to others, often not bothering to let those into her life that she gets no benefit from. Whether its money, power, or sex, she always has a motive. Despite her very human appearance and business exploits, she is still a demon with a demon's appetite. She indulges frequently, drawing power from the souls and life force of mortals, whether through sex or contracts. She often preys upon her own staff, but knows better than to kill anyone. Instead, she drains them slowly, and as a result is not shy about maintaining multiple partners simultaneously.

Despite all of her authority, she is not averse to submission under the right circumstances. Sex, for one, is best enjoyed when malleable, she believes, and will often bed more domineering personalities. They taste so much sweeter.

ABILITIES
First and foremost, Win is immortal. She does not age, and killing her is quite difficult. She heals from non-fatal wounds swiftly, with a very high pain tolerance, and a resistance to alcohol and substances. She has a certain level of persuasion, able to manipulate and coerce mortals to do her bidding through verbal interaction, and can completely control those whom she has frequently or regularly slept with. In fact, sleeping with her often results in a reaction similar to addiction, with her partners often craving her body, potentially to the point of hysteria. It is usually at this point that she will bargain for their soul in exchange for sex with her, killing them in the process.

Over the course of her life time, she has also gained quite a skill for magic.
