Name: Nellie Granger
Nicknames: Sweet Nell.
Race: Vampire
Bdate/Location: St. Louis, Missouri, 1888.
Description: Nelly has blondish hair in permed curls to about mid back and huge natural breasts and curvy hips and long dancer's legs. She has a few freckles on her pixyish nose.
Background:
Nell was a dance-hall girl in the early 1900's until a worldly man named Spike who was riding the railways drifted through the dance-hall she was working in 1912.
Beleiving him to be a soldier on leave she treated him to a dance. He treated her to immortality. Spike never looked back at his progeny he just left her there to rise and fend for herself.
She barely survived, but being both beautiful and smart she soon learned to adust to the life of the night. Taking refuge in a boxcar she rode the railroad west to San Francisco where she resumed her dance-hall career. In the 30's she moved down to Hollywood, California where she starred in a few silent movies.
But the age of films even passed her by and again she found herself starring in chorus lines and Buzby Berkley musical numbers and Esther Williams swimming movies. She was a dancer all over again. She signed on with the Radio City Roxyettes (as they were known at the time) and danced with them until 1941.
She moved back to LA and entertained troops as both a volunteer and as a one-night-stand. And even though many of those young boys were never heard from again, there were a few who remembered "Dear Nell" back in LA.
Soon Nellie tired of the USO gig and went back to dancing in speakeasys and underground bars. She scored the occasional sad sack and made a fair living through strip clubs through the 50's and 60's and by the time the 70's came along she had settled into that as her lot in life.
Many clubs and many many dark corners later she is dancing at a club in South Beach named "The 8-Ball" and generally stops at the Double-T diner after she gets off work around 3am.
She lives in a sparce but clean apartment a few block from there.
Powers: Nell has the typical powers of a vampire of her heritage and experience. She also has an extraordinary talent for dancing. She is experienced in ballet, jass, modern, arrythmic, tribal and classical forms as well as more modern styles like disco and boogie.
Nell works as a dancer and makes good cash. Her eternal good looks keep her in demand until the trail of bodies gets uncomfortable and then she moves on. There is a small but dedicated group of Vampire regulars that she has sired that follow her around from club to club.
