Thank you very much! It took me years to find a PB I felt fit her but using the comic art was limiting because of the availability of quality scans and there not being a whole lot of range in some of them (although I love the art, it's very pretty).

I may have chosen that canon point specifically so I could play with having vampire marks but not be saddled with ardeur. >.> Also I feel there are a lot of opportunities for character development around them that get overlooked. It's so nice to meet someone else that knows the series!
