"I'd like to think you didn't agree to share my company in private with the impression that it would be purely for playing footsie and throwing witty repertoire back and forth. Now, are we going to fuck? Or was my judgment wrong?"

Physical Description: Venetia’s features are reminiscent of a 21st century Russian Fashion model; tall, slender, and striking with long, graceful limbs. Reptilian skin that’s soft, supple and the color of Cherry wood with an iridescent sheen covers her face and roughly 80% of her body. A newly constructed genetic pattern graced her with a gaunt, athletic frame; her bones are more durable, her muscles more developed, and her range of flexibility has increased significantly. Other physical changes include a slight breast reduction, a prehensile tail, an organic vascular system, and an optical upgrade.
Her facial features are feminine save for a new, defined, hyena-like jaw with a bright pink mouth full of sharp teeth and four large canines, giving her the most charming of devious smiles. The hard, bony ridges of her brows are now softened and covered in pale-blue flesh with gold scales. Small, rounded ears lined in black fur are now triangular and pointed like a feline; the choice was more of an aesthetic one than genetic.
Two black V’s run down from her temples to the outer corner of her eyes, and down her cheeks to meet below the jaw line. Her eyes are thickly lined like Cleopatra eyeliner, and her delicate, bow-shaped lips are black with subtle flecks of gold. An optical upgrade has given Venetia a new pair of eyes. The pupils are black and feline, encircled by a ring of liquid silver, and the iris of her eyes are now a vibrant green embedded in a background of eerie yellow. The smart, newly implanted and only recently tested technology adjusts itself automatically to any spectrum that would better serve the recipient.
She sports a boyish hairstyle of red and yellow plumage, shorn close to the skull with only the hint of bangs covering her forehead. The plumage possesses the texture of thick, silky hair that travels down the base of the skull, halting at a shock of cobalt blue that runs down her neck. Wide, empty circles of black cover her shoulders, upper arms, and back, while large black ‘eyes’ cover her sides, hips, and thighs.
Thick, gold scales run down the front of her neck and chest, disappearing into cobalt blue scales in a plunging V that covers the top of her breasts. Scales mix with black fur, tapering into a thin line that travels down her stomach, spreading out over her groin, and reaching behind to cover her derriere and back of her thighs. Her iridescent skin covers the rest of her legs and the tops of her nearly plantigrade, avian feet. The soles of her feet are scaly and pale blue with talons sprouting from her toes, similar to the hooked claws on her manicured fingers.
Depending on the surroundings and who's watching, Venetia's garb changes to better suit a situation. Once fashionably adventurous, she now opts for clothing with straight lines, little detail, and of a single color with varying shades while within the Toride. A short length, short-sleeved tunic over tailored, straight-legged slacks, with white mid-calf toeless ‘socks’ and a collarless militaristic trench coat is all she wears. A simple gold wedding band of an impressive karat is easily visible on the ring finger of her left hand.
However, the nightlife calls for a wardrobe more varied and exotic. She allows herself more freedom within the Niflheim as if it were a Venetian masquerade, always appearing in a new and unique thematic outfit often tied to the macabre. Thigh-high stockings and 3¾ gloves are favored, along with form fitting clothing often worn over longer, flowing skirts, or under more scandalously-cut styles. Sometimes she prefers to hide her identity with a headpiece, mask, or just a face painting but her wedding band is always visible, worn on the outside of her glove.
Less conspicuous garb is required to transverse the UnderCity. Wide, straight-legged slacks and a stiff shouldered, sleeveless top are worn over a black bodysuit. The flexible and insulating suit covers Venetia from neck to toe, encasing her hands, tail, and feet with the exception of claws and talons. A lightweight, straight-cut, coat hangs to her mid-thigh, and zips up from waist to neck. A long, square hijab wraps around her head, hiding her hair and neck while fabric excess is draped over her shoulders, or worn across the face as a niqab.
Background: Venetia first came into existence in her debut as a model for BlueMoon in her early 20’s. Old telecasts and magazine articles chronicle Venetia’s childhood, reading like Ministry propaganda. She was discovered while volunteering in one of many ramshackle hospitals in MidCity, performing acts of kindness and selflessness that would put Mother Theresa to shame. An only child, Venetia worked tirelessly to provide for her two ailing parents, but still possessed enough strength and energy to help in the community. With her exotic looks, excellent work ethics, and positive attitude, Venetia was destined to rise above the poverty. Through hard work, she was able to raise enough money to move both her parents to Toride, where they received the best medical care and lived happy, healthy lives in the high-rise estates of Toride.
Her career only lasted three years, when she disappeared at the height of her popularity. Newer, more exotic, youthful and attractive models immediately filled the void and the public soon forgot Venetia. Rumors circulated in a few loyal fan clubs that Venetia’s disappearance was due to severe illness, a routine operation gone wrong, pregnancy, or that she had grown tired of modeling, and was working on private contracts, starring in hardcore BDSM porno flicks. Documented proof that might have validated any of the rumors was destroyed in a mysterious fire that conveniently swept through one of BlueMoon’s warehouses and a few Ministry record vaults, destroying countless documents, footage, and photos.
During these chaotic years, Venetia went to court on BlueMoon’s tab in a libel/slander case, represented by none other than Danzig Salieri. She married the lawyer almost immediately after the case was settled, and the couple became the epitome of Unification. Behind closed doors, however, the two have very little to do with each other, maintaining a ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ relationship.
No less than four years later after the libel/slander case and marriage, Venetia reemerged in quiet obscurity with her modeling career officially over. She still maintained a job at BlueMoon working as a field agent, scouting for prospective models and observing the general populace of Einheit like an Anthropologist.
In recent months, however, Venetia’s position was deconstructed due to the Hybridization law recently enacted by the Ministry. She was forced to take on a promotion as head of research in a newly constructed branch of BlueMoon, but there was little for Venetia to do outside of an office. Currently self-motivated, she continues to move fluidly from the Toride, through MidCity, into the UnderCity, still well known in the pleasure district and an emerging name within a selective ring of Syndicates.
Personality: Venetia has recently made herself scarce to the public eye, preferring to concentrate on her ‘work’ than attend sociable events within the Toride. She still goes to great lengths to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle, avoiding smoking, drugs, and alcohol for the most part. But Venetia isn’t without sin; she’s cold and heartless, lacking the compassion that would make one at least feel pity for the most downtrodden of souls.
Her modeling career, wealthy husband, and UniClass citizenship has made her nearly untouchable. She’s above you, and she knows it. One of Venetia’s vices is sex, in the most humiliating, degrading, and abusive ways possible with no passion- only cold eroticism. Her others vices are even less savory and best kept secret.
She rarely makes reference to her husband, Danzig, or that she is even married. They aren’t particularly close and are usually only seen together in public on mock dates that are rather tame and boring. Venetia is sure there are secrets that her husband would rather not share. Although Danzig and Venetia choose not be open about their contacts and activities, she still feels pangs of resentment and jealousy.
Weapons/Equipment:

Misc: BlueMoon is a multi-faceted company closely tied to the Ministry. Its modeling agency is most widely known as its models are often used in Ministry propaganda. The company is also known as a publisher of pornography magazines and film in the name of Unification. Other, less savory branches of the company operate outside the public’s knowledge. Their existence is privy only to those with the highest of security clearances within the company. Its logo is an Asian calligraphy of BlueMoon on the background of a waning crescent moon in black and blue contrasts.
