The Reminisce of the Bloody Raven
I vowed vengeance for my family but I was powerless and in my weakness I was led to my spirit creature, the Raven that claimed to be empowered by the First Night Walkers of Ambrogio spake Machel the Despised. There he gave me autonomy and his power and used it to throw off the oppressive yoke of my cruel taskmaster and fulfill my lust for vengeance but that power also came with the price as my soul is cast in lot with the eternal Un-dead.
In another encounter ordained by the nameless gods where in Roma I was adopted as Claudia by a compassionate Giovanni Auditorè Da Firenze where I first crafted my skills as an Assassin and acquired the powerful pendant of Ambrogio and forging it's cursed silver into my blade.
For centuries since I trodden this earth on the quest to acquire cursed silver artifacts, in that time I have assumed a number in other aliases;
- Teng Meng: General Cold Moon ; The Silk road.
- Tigress Makarra: Captain of the Sukindar Black Archers: The Consolidation of India
- Lady Teshine Mintauru,; The Karasu : Medieval Japan
- Tianna Mintauru: The Bloody Raven of the South East Asian Seas.
- Temm Leong Mei : The Red Dragon: The Opium Wars.
- Lady Tracey McMillan of the Sky Pirates: Victorian England 1900
- Sister Teresa d'Mordecai: The Mexican Revolution 1812
- Madame Tricia Maloney: The Gambler's house - The California Gold rush.
- Claudia Auditore da Firenze Esq: Mafia Hitman(woman) – Girl Friday
There's nothing quite like fulfilling one's lust for vengeance. So satisfying. Of course, having one's soul cast in lot with the eternal undead can be problematic as it can cause one to be late for dinner...A condition I woud find quite untenable.

You must be valedictorian of Evelyn Wood Speed Reading college to comment so quickly with each arc of each saga conveniently linked for my readers. One day, I will put into together in a coffee table book, maybe with popups between chapters.
The Count himself was often late for dinner, sometimes skipping it all together. All that snacking between meals.
I didn't click the links.
It gets to be quite the long running saga and getting longer.
Move over 'War & Peace'.
Yes, I can imagine it would be quite broad in scope.
Vampires tend to have a very long 'life' spans and makes for an ideal premise to see the world evolve in their eyes.
ENGAGEtokens.Wow! That is quit the long, illustrious and at at times treacherous list of lives you have lived.
Oh wait a second, my Great Grandmother was Lady Tracey McMillan... I am sure she advised Queen Victoria herself to dump Prince Albert and find the pauper she was supposed to marry, before she stole all the slver cutlery from the royal kitchen!!!
What a small world. Wonderful to finally meet you Grandma :)
I do vehemently apologize for my absence from the last 38 traditional family Get-Together Picnics.
Many lives, with a particular unfolding. character, legend and pain. It seems to be a complete life, not very good but that's life: full of twists sometimes good and sometimes formative.
Very interesting.
To bear witness of the world itself struggle through history in the eyes of a 500 year old Vampire and her enmity against the powerful descendants of those that destroyed her family.
She has to take on various identities through the ages, but the same person.
Hello @kerrislravenhill,
I will need much more time during the week to follow the plot of the past lives that you see here. I would not be surprised if you have met somewhere or time with Connon Macleod, of course, you are somewhat older, almost forty years old, but what is that for an immortal.
"Or was it Duncan Macleod the Highlander? So many faces and names going centuries past."
My alter ego have been around the block even before the block existed in my long running Chronicles of the Bloody Raven. Originally meant to showcase individual pieces of cursed Silver bullion treasure with a fictional story behind each piece. Then it took on a life of its own.
Lost Treasure of the Storm Crow
I think they are both cousins, Connon and Duncan are Scottish. Well, you are a bit far away at that time with your own problems, in the Pacific.
Indeed, I had my hands full with an alleged Chinese Pirate rebellion with Ching Shih at the time.
Wow! Maybe you ran into The Phantom in the waters of the Indian Ocean. LOL
