Physical Appearance: Despite her years, Arabella appears to be a young woman in her late twenties. She has waist length dark brown hair, a source of great vanity for her. Her eyes were once a rich chocolate brown but over the years have darkened to be seemingly black. Her dress and demeanor are always the very first word in elegance.
Personality: Arabella though a Ghoul had been accused by more than one Kindred over the years of being a Caitiff. Her aversion to providing for a single clan versus many had nothing to do with allegiance and everything to do with profit. Her head for business would not let her play favorites.
History: Born London 1799, Arabella was born to a great family name, with no inheritance. Her upper class eduction, finishing school manners and beauty landed her family not destitute, with a scandalous Cyprian as a benefactress. As a mistress to the wealthy, Arabella advanced herself into a position of power, becoming answerable to none. She had powerful friends in the Regency period and was something of a celebrity with the London aristocracy, known as La Notorius 'Bella.

Arabella gained her financial independence, but over the years began to suffer from a debilitating sickness of the blood, caused by her extreme old age and increasingly frail mortality.
