History
Date of Birth: March 27th, 1872
Home: Salemi, Trapani Province, Sicily, Italy
Family: Corrado and Domenica Priore (parents), Luisa (younger sister)
Embrace: External Supernatural Trigger (born and raised in a mob family in the heart of Sicily's Wine Country, she proved a wise and dutiful daughter--that is, loyal and cruel; the Giovanni took notice since the Priores were a proxy family anyway and ghouled Lucretia to the clan, let in on the true nature of the family, and allowed to help run the "family business" under her father; the Giovanni clashed with the Baali in the late 19th-century in Sicily in what became known as the War of the Devil Worshipers, and Urbano--then a modest ancilla--was commanded to Embrace her to add to their ranks), 1894
Sire: Urbano Muras
The Test: Trial by Combat (Lucretia showed her mettle with cunning tactics and the shrewd cultivation of ghostly allies--proving herself a natural leader even as a whelp)
Comrades: Urbano Muras, Emery Nagel, Robaldo Falzone, Manilio Varallo
Key Event #1: Treachery (for two more decades, Lucretia continued to serve the clan elders in Sicily, helping build the clan and her own personal assets and wealth, as well as network in general)
Key Event #2: Treachery (the clan elders took notice of her capability and ambition; viewing her as a future threat, she was forced to leave the Old World for the New, to help the clan expand there--though she knew she would lose much of established power-base, she wisely agreed rather than making enemies of her elders)
Key Event #3: Treachery (gradually and patiently, Lucretia rebuilt her power and wealth over the next century, using the LCN that her family already controlled as a vehicle for her success, choosing to do so behind the scenes as a "mobster wife", helping the clan overall thrive with minimal conflict, doing her best always to turn enemies or likely enemies into allies; meanwhile, her father's ghost--loosely bound to the clan still through Necromancy--began to haunt her and keep her on her toes, which she tolerated)
Key Event #4: Treachery (just as the Baali threatened her and her clan's interests with darkness back in Sicily, now the Followers of Set endangered; she entered into an unheard-of pact in the late 90s with other ancilla and elders of the Camarilla, including Princes, that opposed the vile Setites)
Transition: Victory (her continuing ambitious successes fuel her intention to unite all Giovanni clans in the region under her rule as the Dona of Donas)
Significant Other
Names: Emery Nagel, 1999
Nature: Companionship
Prince Emery
Weakness
The Big Cheese
Lucretia puts too much stock in family, betting everything on the fates and fortunes of the Giovanni clan. Their fall would be hers; then again, the clan's success would also denote her own.
Likelihood of Corruption
High.
She's no devil-worshiper like the Baal or Setites, but she does worship power and money. While a savvy woman not easily subverted, she has plenty of pressure points.
