Character Information
==Known History==
In Connecticut in the early 2000s, Dr. Landen was working on Masquerade preservation through influence in the state medical examiner's office and local police departments. Supernatural activity in the region led the local princes to enlist her help in other capacities. She made what little name she has in the Camarilla through magical efforts to preserve well-being of Kindred society.
Dr. Landen is known to perceive the world of the dead. She knows more about the underworld than most Kindred, and has a history of putting her knowledge of other realms and beings to use for the Prince she has served. She was once seneschal to a Ventrue Prince in Connecticut, but often expresses a lack of desire to hold a high position.
In 2011, she had been working closely with Archons Elias Beecher and Hugo Valentine regarding the many infernal occurrences of the last year.
Dr. Landen was believed to met her final death in the early morning of November 13th, 2011 when she was destroyed in order to incapicitate the infernal Whore of Babylon in the domain of Hartford. News of her destruction was met with sadness through the Northeast and beyond.
In October, 2012, she resurfaced in Westchester County, NY, many believe after posing as Haley O'Riley under the orders of clan Tremere. The infernalist, Seth Dolan took a great deal of interest in her.
