Name: Elsbeth Lennox
Age: Roughly 500
Race: Vampire -- Gangrel
Elsbeth Lennox was born in 1573 in the wake of Queen Mary's final defeat. The daughter of two Scottish nobles, Elsbeth was the first of six children of the Lennox Clan. Her early childhood was quiet, living in the sheltered Lennox Castle, apart from the great battles between the Scottish Clans, provoked, in large part, by the English political struggle.
While her father, George Lennox, was away in 1583, an enemy clan, the MacLeods, attacked the castle, taking everyone by surprise. Elsbeth, who was with her mother at the time of the attack, heard the servants screaming and hid behind her mother. Members of the MacLeod Clan burst into the room and killed her mother. The body fell on top of her and Elsbeth was not found. For hours, she remained under her mother's corpse, crying and praying, but no one would answer her prayers. Meanwhile, George Lennox himself was informed of the attack and decided to challenge the MacLeods himself. He was killed. To add insult to injury, the body was never returned to the family and a proper burial was never given.
