Carmilla, The Dark Lady, The Queen of Vampires

Carmilla was one of the three founders of the Brotherhood of Light alongside Zobek and Cornell. As a human, she was a devout warrior who loved life and swore to bring the mad scientist Friedrich von Frankenstein to justice for his vile experiments. After decades of fighting evil, she ascended to Heaven as a spiritual being. Her physical remains later became the vessel for the Dark Queen of Vampires. As the Vampire Queen, she transformed Bernhard Castle into the Vampire Castle, cloaked the land in eternal winter, summoned demons, and built an army of vampires. She adopted and turned the child Laura into a vampire, treating her with motherly affection. Defeated by Gabriel in Lords of Shadow, an 'echo' of her human form reappears in Lords of Shadow 2 within the castle, obsessively attempting to seduce and corrupt the now-vampiric Dracula (Gabriel) and prevent him from leaving.
