Notes 

  • Rendhara Moonrae is the secret queen of the Kingdom of Moonrae, the Kingdom of the North. The High Court and Crown Prince Marshal are a front to the true secret: that a vampire is the actual ruler of the realm, ruling in the dungeons beneath Moonrae Castle after inheriting the throne from her mother, who might have had vampirism herself.
  • When roaming the realm, she often takes the disguise as 'Rae'hani' posing as various things depending on the region: a thief, a sellsword, or a bon vivant noblewoman.
  • Has the ability to feed while sealing up the wound with a 'kiss' or a lick across the wound that causes it to magically seal. She has made one or two mistakes in the past in regards to feeding too much, but most of her prey have been either noblemen or ner'er-do-well Rogues who were handsome, but ultimately trouble.
