Being of Iberian & Celtic (Spanish/Welsh) Dependency, Azucena has a classic beauty without being beautiful. Waist length black hair frames her lily white features and sparkling golden eyes. As a tall woman (6' even), she is still well proportioned. She generally dresses to catch the male
eye.  Usually in silk, leather or vinyl materials. Having been born in Carmina in 1728, to a Portuguese tavern girl, and a Welsh sailor, Azucena grew up into the trade of her mother.  Even after the embrace, she did not lose her desire for male company.

In fact it was her wild ways that brought her into the path of a Sabbat recruiting party in 1753. One of seven bled dry, changed and buried, she was the first to wake the next night, driven by the hunger she didn't  understand, and with the creating Pack missing, she feed on the others as they awoke. Luckily, for her,  the Gangrel responsible for the death of the park that had embraced her had returned to "finish" the job on the new Childer. However he first recognizing something of the Gangrel blood- he saw something in Azucena.  Something he felt was worth salvaging; that is if the Sabbat embrace had not totally warped her. Perhaps it was because of her "wicked" life, that she emerged, mostly unscathed by the normally dehumanizing method of her embrace.    So this "Wanderer" helped her feed that night and then most uncharacteristically (for Gangrel anyway) took her under his tutelage. Now, while "Wanderer" had no particular love for the Sabbat, he cared just as little for the Camarilla and it rules, so he taught Azucena to walk her own path. The one thing "Wanderer" and Azucena diverged on in their personalities was her attachment to humans, and her need for MEN beyond the blood. However, as she began to learn out of clan disciplines from the kindred man she'd take as lovers from time to time, he decided it was not such a bad thing after all. (He taught her Protean, and tried to teach Animalism, but Azucena has no love for Animals and that was a hopeless effort.) For the next 150 years or so, they walked the nights together, moving from the Iberian Peninsula to Brazil just before the new century in 1799.  In late 1810, "Wanderer" went to ground with a heaviness that worried Azucena.  She did not him rise again.

It was in the few years they spent together in Brazil that Azucena came into the Protean Power of shifting. Having been heavily influenced by the local Rain Forest, her form was not that of a typical wolf, but that of a great cat, the cougar. And although she often saw "Wanderer" take the form of a bat, she can not achieve any flying form because of her mortal fear of heights.   Instead, she was able to shift down in size to that of a domestic house cat.   And thus she began to wander the South American continent avoiding the other Kindred when she could, joining with them in times of need, but always avoiding the Sabbat as much as possible. As she worked her way to Mexico in the early 1900's, she once again learned to fear and distrust the Sabbat and returned to the jungles of Brazil. In 1980, she managed to get a ship to Texas. She has spend the last two decades in the southwest, slowly learning enough English to survive outside the Hispanic communities and started roaming northeast in 1998.  Having unknowingly made her way to Necropolis in late 1999, she found an odd mix of stable instability and Ordered Chaos.    She decided to study it for a while, and it was in Shadows that she met the Anarch Carlos Diablo, who not only spoke Spanish, but also her native Portuguese. Soon thereafter he invited her to join his group. Then it was call "The Society", but early in 2001 it reverted to it's former name. The Icabods.     Perhaps her biggest adjustment of all, is to the Free Gargoyle, Trane, someone who fascinated her first, and terrified her at the same time, but who she found peace with and gave a true piece of her heart to for safe keeping.  Yet there is also the Mage Andrew Kearnan that she can't stop thinking about either.  He is just so different than anyone she has ever met in her extended lifetime.
