| Bio: |  "And let none know your name, lest your virtue be laid bare." The Lady Aqzlece Errona Szczyk (but you may call her Leecee) Dossier Date of Birth: June 14th, 1850 Measurements: 34D-22-36 Race: 3/4 Witch, 1/4 Earth Elemental Family: Grandmother, the Madame Szczyk (deceased) and her three children, two boys and Leecee's mother(deceased). Her father, Yor (1/2 Witch, 1/2 earth Elemental). Two estranged half-siblings and more than a half-dozen estranged first cousins. Occupation:Former Lingerie/Pinup/Fashion Model, current professor of ancient runes  Personal History: Leecee was born the daughter of a born Witch, filled with weakness and a passive attitude that could not be set afire by any sort of ambition. Her true parent, the woman who constructed her identity, was her grandmother, the Madam Szczyk. It was she who convinced her daughter, whose knowledge of her constant 'failure' in her mother's eyes made her malleable, to marry an upstanding, if poor, child of an elemental and another Witch. For a witch, knowledge is power and it is so costly and difficult (and dangerous) to extend one's life and she wanted to give her grandchild the blessing of a longer life. But if the child was born with strong magic, he or she would be raised as the Madame's own, finally setting her mother free from her responsibility to somehow become a strong magic-user. There were her two uncles as well, but while their magic was strong, her grandmother knew they would never live up to her legacy. They had not deigned to learn her Weaveworkings, taking a typically male approach, and neither could use the magic of Naming. But for her grandchild by her only daughter, she put all her hopes into. She declared her capable before she was even born; the bones gave her good signs. She named the child in a secret ceremony between herself and the baby, later writing the name down on her record. The only person who knew the vocal pronunciation, the Madame Szczyk, is dead. Her father called her 'Leecee' immediately and it stuck, as he was allowed to stay, unlike her mother. It was from him that she inherited her dark skin and some other unusual qualities, but that was to be expected from her parentage. This made her unlike the rest of her family, who had been painstakingly bred for magic down an extremely long line of Witches. Leecee's bedtime songs spoke of the changing of the seasons and magic in the moon. Her mobiles had runes and the faces of arcane Gods and Spirits. When she was old enough she would drag around her stuffed faun and play with her easy-bake potion set. In their large manse, in a suburban estate of swampy land, Leecee was kept strictly guarded and sealed away from the world at large by the tall stone walls and her grandmother's indomitable will. She spent decades in those walls taking daily lessons. There were small rebellions and little adventures, vacations to visit other Witches' estates, but her world was magical. It was twenty years before she really understood that, in five years, she'd look exactly the same. To her it was unthinkable to not Craft or Weave spells, to think that demons and spirits were just dreams. Inside her world, the Madame Szczyk showed her wonders of Witchcraft that most would never witness. A master of some of the most mysterious and arcane arts of a Witch, her grandmother expected Leecee to someday reach her level. Leecee had been told from the day she could talk that her life was long because she would need it to catch up to her. That someday, with the benefit of an extra century or two, that she might have her knowledge and power. And Leecee grew up expecting that someday she would be and the manse, her materials, and all of her books would one day belong to her. Her family, including her mother, were not pleased. The birth of Leecee had pushed them all a step further from their mother, as if they were her nephews and niece, not children. They saw Leecee benefitting from their mother's almost sole attention while their other children, including Leecee's little known half-siblings, received notes and scant afternoons of her. Worse yet, while Leecee was no genius, she was clever and quick and could not have a better teacher. Her powers, skill, and knowledge grew daily. As they grew slowly older she was inching her way to her prime, without a care but to continue this growth. They would sometimes take to shunning her in turn, if Leecee wasn't shunning them first. Even when her mother passed away she shed barely more tears than the Madame herself. It seemed cold, but her mother was little more than a distant relative to her. Unfortunately, her grandmother, despite all her power, could not evade death forever. Some tried to estimate her age, but the Madame Szczyk, much like her own name, was mostly a mystery, even to her closest. Her Uncle, the oldest of the three, assumed his role as the head of the family. And promptly declared Leecee spoiled and in desperate need of a wakeup call. She was too used to using the mundane world as she wished, waltzing through the town (when allowed) with the perfumes of Allure around her. Being too old to send to Halcyon Halls, where she would have gone if they had had their choice, her uncle put her on what he called a "probation" that has, thus far, lasted fifteen years. Allowed only to take her own small bonds and personal possessions, Leecee moved into a small apartment alone. She soon found that living alone was harder than it turned out to be and Witchcraft not as easy without her grandmother's incredible supplies and workshop. Still, she had her mundane Weaving supplies and her Weaving books, as well as her own personal favorites and grimoires. What Leecee needed was a home base and some profit. She required charms just to convince people she was a legitimate citizen, as her paperwork stated the buxom beauty was over a 100 years old. No job skills and an impetuous attitude. In an ironic turn of events, it was her 'charms' that solved her problems. Leecee, of great and noble Szczyk blood, made her premiere as a lingerie model a little over a decade ago. While she never was an international smash, she certainly did draw plenty of attention. There was a few calendars and appearances on album covers. The money was good and she still has some devoted fans to this day, even if she hasn't modeled regularly in five years. There isn't a lot of on-street recognition, especially as she chose to relocate to Los Angeles where everyone is a bigger celebrity, but internet searches for "Leona Czyk" (pronounced "Chick") still yield plenty of sexy, PG-13 results. In the past years she's finally gotten her surroundings to match to her personal level of power. Having become a prominent figure in the Weave Worker scene has helped her establish important contacts to garner supplies and information, as is necessary for a Witch to continue her education. The Witch side of her family, especially after discovering her 'modelling', have not tried to make contact, which she assumes means her oldest Uncle has seen fit to somehow extend his life even further than he had before. Leecee has recently taken an important step to becoming the head of her family when he passes by taking a position at Halcyon Halls as a professor, to help clean up her image and, more importantly, give more time to her own studies.
