Basic History
Gwendolyn is the product of a short-lived relationship between her parents. The relationship was short lived mostly because Elizabeth Barker was killed shortly after the birth of Gwendolyn. Romulus’ cousins were jealous of their younger relation and sought to seek a small bit of revenge. Romulus was the son of the current head of the house, the acknowledged heir, and he had a woman with a child.
One day, when Romulus was out surveying the Neri properties, the cousins kidnapped Elizabeth and Gwen. Even though Elizabeth was a vampire, the cousins drained her dry, for that is was the Neri Family did. Elizabeth may have been a vampire, but she’d been a captive of the family. Taken from her family, decades ago, while on a tour of the region, Elizabeth had been turned and kept alive as a source of food for the family. As Romulus grew into his majority, Elizabeth took notice of the young vampire who rarely drank from live people and seemed to the opposite of his family. She seduced him in the hopes that he would protect her from the worst of the family. For a time, he did.
Romulus returned home in time to save his infant daughter from the same fate as her mother. In a rare show of aggression, Romulus killed two of the three cousins who’d killed Elizabeth. The act of killing showed the family that he may not behave like the rest of the family but he was still a dangerous enough to warrant being the heir of the Neri line. When he’d reached manhood, roughly age 21, Romulus took his six year old daughter and left the family compound. Within decades, he’d moved them out of Italy and to Elizabeth’s home country of England. From their they bounced all of the world, traveling every few decades.
Gwendolyn has always turned a blind eye to her father’s habit of sleeping with men, a habit considered unnatural, because he turned a blind eye to her habit of throwing expensive items when her lovers did something stupid. They’ve always considered it a fair trade. Gwendolyn followed in her father’s acting footsteps but she veered a sharp left and pranced across the Broadway stages while Romulus starred in B-Movies. She did toss in the odd B-Movie and is payed very well to act as a look-a-like at various conventions that worship the movies. She, like her father, faked her own death at the height of her career and now contents herself with making a small wage to add to her very large bank account. She likes managing the Prop department for the Cedar Valley University. She is amused by the fact that her father is a student at the same university. She enjoys the comments about how much she looks like Sophia Barker, the great Broadway star of the 1960’s. She absolute adores the young college boys, as does her father.
She’s not really looking for a long term relationship. Gwendolyn considers the invention of friends with benefits as the best thing in the world.
(Note: Gwen's birthyear was figured by basing it off her Romi's birthday, as he is her father.)
