Dead Cultist

Assassinated in her bed by the pack on April 7, 2007.

Description

An overweight Black woman in her early 40s with short graying hair, brown eyes, and dark skin. She wears tight, hip-hugging jeans, and white blouses which accentuate her rather large breasts. Her wedding ring never leaves her finger and she has a white gold dove pendant her husband bought her to celebrate the twenty year anniversary of getting off drugs. Not particularly attractive, she has a strong presence and an air of authority.

Storytelling Hints

Compassionate, but an advocate of tough love (except where children are concerned). She's been through a lot in her life and has little patience for whining or laziness. She understands pain, though, and is always willing to help someone through a tough spot. Her loyalty to the church is unwavering because of all the good she has seen in done, for herself and others.

Background

Caroline had turned to prostitution to feed her drug habit by the age of twelve and almost didn't make it to twenty but for the Church of the Lighthouse. When she did reach her twentieth birthday, they had helped her overcome her drug addiction and cured her chlamydia, though not before it robbed her of her ability to have children. She considers it fate's judgment for her weakness and regrets it every day of her life. Instead, she throws herself into her working helping others at the shelter, guiding those who she can to the Church. She married a man she met through the shelter, who was homeless due to a job injury, and helped him get a job with the transit authority after converting him. At the time of her death, she had no idea of the dark side of the Church, though she was aware that the elders and cousins were 'touched', special folks who protected the church and guided its members to health, family, and community. She was worried about her husband, Robert, who had fallen ill and was being treated at St. Mary's due to the clinic being closed.
