Nora Rios

Nora Rios is a runaway who got scooped up by a Sabbat member in Reno, NV and spent two years as a blood doll and plaything for.

In 2013 when the members of the San Francisco Camarilla participated in an attempted retaking of Reno, Nevada, Safiya found her in the haven of one of the packs they were tasked with destroying. The girl begged her to take her with her and, confronted with a reflection of her own past affiliations, Safiya couldn't find it in herself to refuse.

Safiya brought Nora back with her to San Francisco and aided the girl in getting medical attention, physical therapy (Nora has a crippled left arm, capable of lifting maybe 1 to 3 pounds now and with little fine motor control, due to past sustained injuries/tendon damage from her time with the Sabbat), and psychological therapy.

Eight months after taking the girl in, Safiya started to make arrangements to move her out and remove her from the supernatural world (including looking into Domination to remove her memories of the vampiric elements of her past), but Nora again asked to remain with her. Safiya told her that it would only be possible for her to stay if she were to become a ghoul.

Nora has been with Safiya ever since and the pair have a fairly comfortable arrangement. Nora takes care of the daily goings on of the house and any errands that Safiya might need. She's given a stipend for personal spending, and has room, board and necessities provided for. Nora doesn't talk much and still flinches from certain things, but she's working on it.

Two years ago, Safiya started training her to build up her strength and learn how to defend herself as best she can. This has included Safiya encouraging Nora to become familiar and comfortable with guns and making sure she had a small handgun for personal protection.

In addition to her martial training, Safiya encouraged Nora to continue her education and she has recently received her Diploma.

Nora was 19 when Safiya found her and has been ghouled for 4 years.
