Overview

Fifi! LeStrange

Nickname(s): Barbie

Real Name:

Apparent Age: Early to Mid 20's (depending on outfit and make-up)

Concepts: Glamorous Lie + Reluctant Prophet + Moral Compass

Physical description: 5'10 (6' 2 if you add high heels) slightly tan, Caucasian with bleached-blonde hair and icy blue eyes. She has a Rubenesque form; a body with soft curves in just the right places. Her appearance is so vibrant that she's constantly mistaken for human.

Fifi! alternates between trendy-casual and over-the-top glam. Pink, black, and silver are her 'signature colors'. Like the rest of her family she wears glitter.... lots and lots of glitter... and glow-sticks or blinking lights. When not in the presence of other kindred she is seen with her two purebred rottweilers, Azrael and Osiris, who do not seem intimidated or fearful of her.

Appearance: 3 (Gorgeous x 2, Magnetic)


Detailed Status:

  • Acknowledged by the word of Prince Malatesta of the Domain of Gainesville (way early 2000's)
  • Insightful by the word of Zio! of Clan Brujah, former Prince of the Twin Cities (circa April, 2010)
  • Well-connected by the word of Dugan McKinney of Clan Brujah (circa August, 2010)
  • Praised by the word of Morgan Wynn Howell, Prince of the Twin Cities (January, 2011)
  • Revered as Primogen of Clan Brujah in St. Paul - Minneapolis (*cringe*)

Character Information

Fifi! is known for her closeness to her humanity and is seen as a moral compass within Kindred society (at least in the Twin Cities). She refuses to take on "projects", preferring to wait until a Kindred approaches her before helping them protect and maintain their Humanity. Those from the outside who assume that humane and spiritual equal "pure" find out quickly that they are wrong. While lacking experience in the more visceral aspects of kindred (and human!) experience, she has a dark sense of humor and a fascination with death and the dying. Some wonder whether this is due to her Sire's influence or if she is more monstrous than she appears.

She was raised as a Catholic in her mortal life, and adheres to most of their tenets and rituals. However, at the recommendation of a fellow Soothsayer at the 2010 Midwinter's gather, Fiona has started to research other deities to revere in addition to the (young) Judeo-Christian god. She has since developed an interest in the Greek and Egyptian myths.

Among the mortal populace, she is known as a skilled Cosmetologist and for helping to organize unorthodox social work like needle exchanges and health care services for sex workers.

Known History

Few are around that remember Fifi!'s early years from when she was in Florida. During that time she and her Sire, Zio!, were close. Something caused her to abruptly leave. No one knows whether she left because her Sire was slipping in his Humanity, or whether his decline was because of her leaving.

During the following year (still early 2000's), she made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem - this was back when it was a "ghost town" for Kindred. No one knows why she traveled there, what she saw, or where she went afterwords. With the exception of an occasional sighting here or there, she fell off contact with Kindred society for several years.

In September 2008, Fifi! appeared in the domain of Cedar Falls, Iowa. Despite appearing overly flamboyant, she was mild-tempered, quiet, and humane to the point where it showed in her physical appearance. When asked on her motives for moving to Iowa, she spoke of seeing a vision regarding her Sire, and feeling a calling that she needed to help him.

Months after the St. Paul - Minneapolis conclave (early 2009), Fifi! moved to the Twin Cities in order to be closer to her Sire and to experience "big city" life.

She was Lesser Harpy to Alex Randall of Clan Malkavian. After a few months, Alex stood up to the Prince at that time, Chester Black, and stripped him of several measures of standing due to various scandals. After Alex was banished, the Primogen asked Fifi! (though still inexperienced) to become the next Harpy. Her removal as Harpy was due to rumors regarding her own views on the downfall of Chester Black (that he was 'set up' in the end).

After that debacle, she served as Assistant Keeper for Horace Mansfield-Rhumer, as well as Whip for her clan under numerous Primogen. Her disdain towards clan and sect politics has faded over the past year, most likely as a reaction to the deaths of her teacher and ally, Cadence Porter, and Anthony Black. She originally accepted the role of Primogen when there were no viable options remaining. Now, it appears that she has fully taken on the role, and is working both within her city and outside of it in order to build political alliances.

Tropes (at least hinted at)

Beneath the Mask
Uncanny Valley Girl mixed with Stepford Smiler
Morality Chain
Evil Parents Want Good Kids
White Haired Pretty Girl (or Hair of Gold)
Ill Girl / Waif Prophet
Can't have Sex, Ever (The Twilight element...)


Coterie

Team Fail / Team Freeman (disbanded) - reconnaissance guru and Public Relations manager


Allies

Aleister Blackwell

Also, several seemingly random yet important kindred know who she is and watch out for her. Ask her why they look out for her and she'll give you a blank, confused look in return. Maybe she's not fond of name-dropping.

At public gathers, Fifi! is typically seen associating with Malkavians (especially the very "enlightened" ones) or Tremere.

BFF's

Ari Renard, chemist and fellow kind-hearted soul(Tremere)
Syprus Herring, supernatural romance novel writer & fellow survivor of weird experiences (Malkavian)
Rowan Kames, academic/historian with an awesome British accent (Malkavian)


Frenemies

This one leaves people guessing. It's called her competition - ;)


Enemies

The Sabbat... who would use her to get to her Sire, Zio!

While not enemies per se, she is wary of Followers of Set due to the mutual dislike between them and her Sire.

If she has any other enemies, they haven't made themselves public.

Sire

Zio!, Archon to Justicar Maris Streck of Clan Malkavian


Childer

None

Rumors

  • No one, not even her Sire, knows her real sexual orientation or gender.
  • Admitted that she used to own whole bunch of Twilight paraphernalia that was stolen during a daylight raid a few weeks ago. The books and DVD's were recovered. The poster of Edward Cullen was not. :( It's suspected that a member of Team Jacob planned the raid.
  • Involved 'behind the scenes' in three bloodless praxes in St. Paul - Minneapolis
  • Gets close to other kindred to find out what makes them 'tick', then finds creative ways to encourage them to better themselves. Kind of like Jigsaw... only less deadly (usually).
  • Has no issues helping both sides of a political fight. She'll even give extra love to the underdog so that it's a fair fight.
  • She's a Seer and Oracle, and quite a few of her visions sync up with those seen by local Malkavians (specifically those involving death/destruction)
  • She is dependent on both blood and food for sustenance. She also gets cranky if she doesn't have her evening latte
  • The sound of Katy Perry's music causes Fifi! to fly into a fit of rage.
  • She gets VERY BITCHY a the same time every month
  • The confidence and glam is an act to hide her bland personality and low self-image
  • Fifi! apparently acted violently to finding out Ari Renard and Sylphain Delille are a couple. She now plots to either separate or join them.
  • Seeking a third person that's in a relationship with a Tremere so she can start a support group.
  • Ghouled at age 16 and spent several years as Zio!'s personal groomer. He let her age shortly before embracing her. Hence the glitter.
  • Spends time around those that are either inhumane or very creepy due to her fascination with Death.
  • Offered an unofficial court position as Spiritual Advisor / Moral Compass under Prince Morgan Wynn Howell. Turned down the position because it mirrored the Sabbat position of Priest
  • Summons little birds to braid her sister's (Lena!'s) hair. She keeps the other woodland animals to help clean her house.
  • It's said that angels come to Fifi!'s aid in times of great emotional distress. Some believe that this is a metaphor for her protectors within Kindred society. Others believe this means actual angels.
  • Keeps a squeaking stress ball in her purse to help her avoid frenzy
  • Fifi! has created a unique form of divination using glitter, make-up, and hair spray
  • File:Promise ring.jpg
    Seen on Fifi! LeStrange's hand at a gathering in early February
  • She possesses a token that causes werewolves to leave her alone.
  • Her pure, caring presence is a well-crafted lie built to manipulate you to bend to her will. She's really a duplicitous bitch.
  • Her voice is so pure that it disrupted a necromatic ritual.
  • Batshit crazy and hiding it. Beware when she starts talking about "mannies and peddies".
  • She's in love with her Sire and in denial on this.
  • She wears pink because she's an avid Dolores Umbridge fan. She wants to find out how to trap kittens in decorative plates.
  • Was Whip for Clan Malkavian within the Twin Cities for one night. Did this in exchange for co-authoring a trashy vampire/supernatural romance novel.
  • Wore her hair and make-up in an avant-garde fashion to a public gathering. Entranced several Toreador. Has since toned down on using her "mad beauty skillz" at kindred gatherings
  • Love interest of Horace Mansfield-Rhumer (now deceased).
  • Mentored by Chester Black (now deceased). Her heart is darker than his.
  • Dating Aleister Blackwell and wearing a promise ring. Yes, the gems in the ring are a deep red... Don't ask about the 'promise' :p.
  • Her choice of pink outfits was her first 'compromise' in her relationship with Aleister Blackwell. He wanted her to wear red, and she normally prefers white/silver.
  • Some of the recent political shake-ups in the Upper-Midwest can be linked to cat fights between Fifi! and her sister (Lena!) or her Sire, Zio!. Talk about a dysfunctional family!!!
