Marissa

Marissa was the Tremere prince of Washington D.C  until her assassination in 1968.

Biography
Marissa claimed the princedom of Washington after the former prince fell victim to an Assamite attack. Her Clan supported her claim, even granting her the rank of Pontifex despite initial concerns. Using racist tendencies within the population following the American Civil war, she managed to secure her power and hoarded many magical artifacts for her own use. Strong alliances with the Nosferatu and a vicious anti-anarch propaganda, as well as her natural charms and victorian style in her leadership secured her power, leading some Kindred to proclaim her as the Queen of the United States, but her gender made her unpopular within her own Clan, who sendt a replacement for her that mysteriusly vanished on its way to her.

When Marcus Vitel arrived in Washington, Marissas rule began to crumble. She had amassed too much influence and Camarilla Elders began to worry about the power the prince of the capital of a global superpower could exert. They found an ally in Vitel, who betrayed Marissa to a coterie of archons and blamed her death on the Giovanni.
