Biography
Born in Brazil during the 17th or 18th century, Francisca Santos dos Rodriguez is an enigma to vampiric society. What sparse information about her origin has been gathered (and that is believed to be a constructed lie by the Justicars) is that she was born in Santos and later moved to a small farm in Recife. Eventually, she left her farm and joined a band of portuguese settlers. She married one of their numbers and moved to São Paulo, where she had twin sons.
At her 25th birthday, records show that she slaughtered her own sons and offered their internal organs to satanic powers in exchange for their blessing. After spending a single night in a cell, she escaped and mortal authorities were unable to find any trace of her.
In 2009, Francisca clashed first with Manuela Cardoso Pinto, who was a Josian at the time. She hunted her down, tracking her via various grimoires and similar artifacts that Francisca had hidden in Catholic Churches. During this time, Francisca demonstrated the ability to command demons as well as the substantial darkness associated with Obtenebration. She claims that a greater darkness rises, even darker than the Baali Methuselah that sleeps beneath Mexico City. She has been traced to Mexico and several Archons are sure that the earthquake of 2014 was her doing. Manuela, now the Justicar, believes that Francisca's goal is awakening sleeping Baali Ancients and her influence was substantiell for adding her to the Red List, out of fear what she would attempt next.
