Character Factoids

• Belle has the power to induce lust from a distance. (DM)
  
• She has the ability to draw power from lust.
• All of the "great cats" are hers to call.
• Members of Belle Morte's bloodline tend to be selected for their beauty, and some of the vampires in her line hold the ardeur, becoming incubi or succubi that need to feed off lust as well as blood. Some are able to also project the ardeur to control others.
• Although some hold the ardeur, Belle is the only one to hold the full ardeur.
  
• Some vampires of her line become more attractive after "death". Belle likes to encourage rumors that all become more beautiful. (DM)

• She cast Asher away after healing him enough to let him survive after his encounter with the holy water, but has come to think she might have been hasty. (CS)
