Adelaide

Adelaide (full name and original pronunciation: Adélaïde Channah Domitille Sasson, a.k.a. Adde or Annette) is a cis female vampire in the Monsterverse. She is a carrier of vampirism. She seems to have a kind of aura that causes people to want to protect her (or at least not harm her.) She is Dee's paternal great-grandmother.

Appearance
Adelaide has brown skin and long, black hair that frames her face. Her eyes are violet. All of her teeth are very sharp, giving her a shark-like look.

Behavior
In life, Adelaide was a very sweet and romantic person. She adored love stories and often painted impressionist scenes of lovely places to have a picnic.

History
Adelaide was a 22-year-old bisexual artist in Paris in the 1920s. She had been in a relationship with a traveling college student, who left her when he discovered she was pregnant. After a difficult pregnancy, Adelaide believed she could not adequately care for the resulting child-- Dekan Sasson's eventual grandfather-- so she begged an orphanage to take him.

She met Rigel and Kieran shortly afterwards, and was under the impression that they were brothers until her keen wit and sharp observational skills told her there was something more going on. She then fell in love with both of them platonically.

Rigel was in love with her romantically and tried to turn her into a vampire when she became very ill. When his three bites had no effect, he enlisted Kieran to bite her three times also. She died anyway. After this, they became distraught and went to England to discover the cause of her dyring rather than becoming a vampire. They discovered carrier vampirism with Melisende and Coralie Swift.

Almost 80 years later, Rigel and Kieran discovered that Adelaide was a carrier vampire. Cue the oh shit moment.
