Bio:

Name: Salome Oneha

Age: 88, turned at 26

D.O.B.: October 27, 1920

Blood Type: O-

Race: Vampire of the Four Horsemen, Death

Powers: As a Rider of Death, Salome's touch will cause a human to have a twenty-four hour period of weakness. Their body weakens considerably, as does their immune system. They are more prone to catch illness, and in this twenty-four hour period, they are in absolutely no condition whatsoever to fight it off. They are also more accident-prone, meaning anything they do could potentially lead to serious injury or death.

Physical Description: Salome is 5'5" with the toned curves of a trained Tahitian hula dancer (or a stripper); she's a mix of Filipino and Hawaiian, with some Russian thrown in from a few generations back. She's tanned, with golden skin (that she keeps up now with spray tanners to hide the tinge of 'dead' that she's gained over the decades) and almond-shaped eyes that dark brown when she's wearing her contacts and when she was alive, but now are so pale green that they're almost white, the mark that denotes her as a Rider of Death. She has long, black hair that she alternately wears in long waves, curls, or straightens depending on her mood. She favors jeans and tanks or sweats when she's not working, and her costumes when she's working range anywhere from PVC to leather or sequins, silks, or spandex. She wears a lot of black, but is also a fan of bright, eye-catching colors.

Personality: Salome is... well, she's surprisingly normal for a fanatical vampire with sexy death powers. She's really just one of the girls - friendly, vivacious, surprisingly smart and has a sense of humor to match. On the flip side, you don't want to make her mad, because she has no problems tearing a bitch apart. Sometimes literally. It can be tough behind the scenes at strip clubs, she's gotten into her fair share of fights, both physical and verbal, and she hasn't lost one yet. She doesn't always have a lot of patience for others, with one notable exception being Ruby Lu - for some reason, the two women just seem to click, despite Salome looking positively sedate next to the perky, bouncy blonde deathdealer. When she's on the job, she's a total enabler - anything to make it easier for humans to find death. Got some blow or know where to find it? Salome's right there doing lines with you, though it doesn't do anything to her. Have that last drink, do that risky stunt. Whatever it is, Salome's right there cheering them along.

Get her talking about her Family and philosophy, however, and she gets completely serious. Salome is completely devoted to the cause and takes her duties seriously. She's always brushing up against people when out on the streets, touching as many patrons as she can at work, and more than one man she's slept with has had a heart attack mid-coitus. It was an immense honor to be sired into The Four Horsemen and she believes that only hard work will bring about the apocalypse and their promised reward.

Sexuality: Bisexual. She'll go through phases where she'll prefer girls over guys, guys over girls, and sometimes both at the same time. It's really just mood-dependent.

History: Salome was born in 1920 in Kihei on the island of Maui, to a Filipino father and Hawaiian mother, both of whom were members of one of the Four Horsemen's human cults. Salome was brought up firmly in the party line, that the vampires who'd been created by angels were trying in their divine task to bring about the end of the world so they could all receive their promised reward for doing God's work. She grew up with knowledge of the supernatural, was determined to do whatever she was called upon to do to aid them - for surely, who else was as deserving?

For the first part of her life, she wasn't really called upon to do anything - her 'jobs' were to go to school, get the best education she could, and in the meantime she studied traditional Tahitian dance and hula. In her free time, she hung around whichever vampires were in residence - from a distance, of course, as it wasn't safe for her to get close to any of them without risking illness, rage, or death. As she grew older, however, her devotion became steadily more apparent and she was given any range of jobs.

When Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941, Salome was sure it was the event that would turn World War II into the apocalypse they'd all been waiting for. The cult stationed in Maui immediately went to work, sowing as much confusion and chaos as they could in the guise of helping the survivors as they all tried to flee back to California. Salome took work in a hospital, where she managed to help five patients on to their eternal rest. Unfortunately, it appeared World War II (as WWI before it) was destined to be a disappointment, because the world definitely didn't end. Sure, it was more broken than it was before and that was counted as a victory for The Four Horsemen, but it was evident that there was more work to be done.

Five years later, Salome was married to another cult member when she was chosen to receive the gift and become one of The Four Horsemen. Her family was thrilled when she was chosen for the honor, as they all had yet to be chosen. Salome was turned, wondering which of the four she would wake up as. It took only one glance in the mirror to know for certain - the pale green irises gave her away immediately as a Rider of Death. Salome was delighted - it was an insidious, subtle gift and one that she delighted in sharing. A gift that she ended up first sharing with her husband, with unfortunately final consequences in bed their first night together. At least he died happy.

Freed from the bonds of matrimony, she set off to go traveling, spreading her gift through the world. She ended up in Manhattan, a big change for an island-bred girl like her, and became one of the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes. Her line mates, unfortunately, kept coming down with the strangest accidents. That amused her for a few years and she left before it became obvious that she wasn't aging - and before there were no Rockettes left. After that, her travels were mostly aimless - she went wherever she could get a ride and with whomever would provide for her, heading back to Hawaii for a while to spend time giving aid to the leper colony Kalaupapa on the island of Molokai. When it was clear the colony was going to be shut down in the late sixties, Salome found herself in London, living the good life as mistress to a string of rich men. That was where she met Ruby Lu, the little blonde dynamo and Rider of Pestilence. The two of them hit it off - Salome in particular was pleased to find another member of her Family - and it wasn't long before Salome was getting back to her dance roots in the same club. Gogo dancing was easy, and adding her Tahitian flavor made it even more fun.

Ruby Lu was the first to begin stripping in the 70s; it took Salome a little longer to pick it up. It was undeniably a great way to spread their gifts - it wasn't long before Salome and Ruby Lu discovered what was quickly dubbed their 'two-for-one combo', which consisted of a double lapdance - Ruby Lu kicked off the party with her gift for pestilence, and Salome's death touch often sealed the deal. It was perfect.

Salome found she had a love of dancing, whether it be clothed or un, and the power stripping gave her over humans was addicting. Plus, the money was fantastic. She didn't have any future plans, so she just kept doing what made her happy, taking dance classes as styles evolved and stripping in a string of clubs until the two women ended up in Michigan. They took jobs as dancers in a full-nude club called The Dollhouse in Ann Arbor, living together in the smaller, nearby township of Scarlet Oak. That's where she remains today, dancing and doing whatever she can to bring about the apocalypse.

Since the Light of May: It's gotten a little tougher for Salome to do her work once knowledge of vampires came out. More and more humans seem to know what to look for to avoid members of The Four Horsemen, and sometimes even the brown contacts Salome uses to hide her pale irises don't work. On the plus side, having vampire strippers really brings in the customers, which makes it easy for Salome to spread her particular brand of love around to many.

Special Skills/Abilities: Salome's a dance maniac - she's an expert in Tahitian dance and hula, and has over the years honed her skills in jazz, go-go dancing, exotic dancing, and hip hop. She also rides a motorcycle, a red and black Suzuki Hayabusa (GSX1300R).

Personal Weaknesses: Tell: Salome's eyes are a pale (almost white) green and glow in the dark. It's a dead giveaway to anyone who knows what they're looking for and marks her as Rider of Death. She usually tries to cover that up with brown contact lenses when she has to go out or work, but some of the glow still leaks through in the dark. It also means she tries to hide what family she's from as much as possible. She's proud of being a member, but not when people are trying to kill her before the apocalypse.

Target: Pretty much everyone (save other members of the Family) want to kill The Four Horsemen, and that includes Salome. Weres, other vampires, and sirens have nothing to fear from her, but witches, psychics, and humans have plenty of reason to gun for her - and even though she can't hurt the aforementioned, that doesn't mean they wouldn't take the opportunity to take her out if they had it.

Vampirism: Normally, this isn't a huge problem, despite the fact that silver is so in this season and it's deadly to Salome. But when it comes to getting dances, it can be a hassle. Some fangbangers adore a little flash of fang and running their hands over cold flesh. Others get completely freaked out, and there goes her tip. So Salome usually tries to hang out near a heater before she goes onstage or circling for dances so patrons get the fangs without the corpselike cold. If she's not careful, it can affect her livelihood.

Fanatic: Salome is entirely devoted to her cause, and her purpose is never far from her mind. She's always on the lookout for opportunities. The downside, however, is that it's one of her triggers. Nothing sends her into a rage faster than someone disparaging her ideals and goals, which can sometimes lead to some messy cleanups and, in the past, a quick move out of town for Salome.

Personal Strengths: Physicality: Salome's amazingly flexible, agile, and strong - she was in great shape when she was alive, and vampire powers have only made it better. She can bend in ways that blow most men's minds, and her strength and coordination have given her a great collection of pole tricks and dance moves. She has great body-awareness and incredible balance.

Tinkering: Salome hasn't yet met a device she can't take apart and put back together - correctly. She has an affinity for fixing things; even if she has no formal knowledge of how something works, she just seems to be able to pick it up and get it. It's saved them a ton in appliance repair costs - not that they need it, but it's a good skill to have.

Family: None left alive, save her vampire family.

Living Conditions: An upscale townhouse with Ruby Lu in Scarlet Oak.

Career/Job: Exotic dancer at The Dollhouse in Ann Arbor.

PB: Nicole Scherzinger.
