Marie Laveau
The Voodoo Queen most often appears as an
uncommonly beautiful mixed human woman with a
magnetic gaze. She is known to heal the sick, protect
women from their pasts, and do immaculate hair, all
while knowing far more than she should about current
m
events. Elites pay to hear their fortunes, beggars bring
her gossip, and folk of all kinds seek her solutions to
their many problems. There is little in Marie Laveau’s
city that she does not hear about or foresee.
Underworld Queen. In addition to her grand
reputation in elite circles, Marie is a fixture in the lives
of criminals, beggars & thieves, providing advice, safety
Sa
and aid to social outcasts. For those who can afford it,
Marie charges amply for her help, and for those that
need it most, she accepts all manner of favors that
sometimes cost a great deal more than coin.
Voodoo Priestess. As the most powerful local
practitioner of her arts, Marie commands a certain
degree of awe and fear amongst magic users of all
kinds. Marie keeps many apprentices, women who
resemble her closely in manner and appearance, so
much so that one can never be quite sure if they’re
speaking to the real Marie. It can be startling to have a
conversation with Marie Laveau, leave her place of
business, then pass Marie Laveau on the way to your
next destination.
