Cassilda, la Bella Donna

Cassilda Bellacqua, known to most as la Bella Donna, is a black-haired, green-eyed woman of average height, slender build, indeterminate age, and uncanny beauty. She favors dark clothing of timeless, elegant designs crafted from eldritch fabrics such as mistweave and nightspun, with little or no visible adornment. Her hands, feet, torso and limbs are covered with eerie arcane tattoos, all kaleidoscopic filaments and squirming runes the nature of which profoundly disturbs any whose gaze lingers upon them overlong. She is rarely seen without a certain macabre, high-collared cloak in whose inky folds spectral faces are sometimes glimpsed and from which ghostly whispers occasionally emanate.
