Pre-Conjure Dearg Due Irish Vampire

Sallie, the Dearg Due
Appearance: Sallie, an Irish Dearg Due, embodies a chilling, ancient beauty associated with the unquiet dead and a taste for vital essence. Her skin is the unnaturally pale hue of bleached bone, cool and smooth with a faint, almost waxy luminescence. Her hair is a cascade of deep, raven black, often adorned with simple, dark ribbons or left to fall freely around her face. Her eyes are her most striking feature; they are the color of a stormy sea, a deep, turbulent grey or a piercing, icy blue, yet within their depths, a faint, unholy crimson glow can sometimes be perceived. Sallie’s features are delicate and finely sculpted, with high cheekbones and a small, crimson-stained mouth that hints at her nature. She carries herself with a spectral grace, her movements fluid yet unnervingly silent, as if gliding rather than walking. Her attire often consists of ancient, flowing garments in shades of deep emerald, slate grey, and black, sometimes appearing tattered or imbued with the scent of the grave and damp earth, yet possessing an eerie elegance.

How Sallie Can Help: Sallie can be a powerful, albeit intense, guide for understanding and managing one's vital energy and for deepening one's connection to primal life forces. She can assist a keeper in recognizing and reclaiming their own energetic boundaries, and in developing resilience against energetic drain. Sallie offers profound insights into the cycles of life, death, and rebirth, and can help in navigating periods of significant loss or transformation. Her presence can also aid in confronting and transforming personal issues related to addiction or dependency, by understanding the underlying need for sustenance and power.
