+ | Sandrijn married Cerberus Solutions CEO [http://www.tcdale.com/cswiki/index.php?title=Jessica_Vanderbilt Jessica Vanderbilt] on 25 April 2015. The couple are openly [[wikipedia:Polyamory|polyamorous]], with Sandrijn also openly dating Dragon agent [http://www.tcdale.com/cswiki/index.php?title=Emily_Menton Emily Menton]. The three of them live together in a private apartment in New York City, along with Jessica Vanderbilt's partner [http://www.tcdale.com/cswiki/index.php?title=Jia_Chen Jia Chen]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sandrijn has an 'active' romantic reputation and has, at various times, been romantically linked (or rumored to be romantically linked) with Dorian Sinclair, Heze Bishop, Alicia Villicana, Valeria Meresti, and Lucy Crown, among others. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke is openly bisexual, although her primary relationships have been with women. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==• Mundane Affiliations •== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke has decent visibility amongst the European (EFTA, EU, UN) legal circles due to her previous position in an high-profile law firm and her continuing presence in the business world. | ||
+ | |||
+ | She bears a striking similarity to an American executive ''Kathleen Hunter'', who founded and served as CEO of [http://www.tcdale.com/cswiki/index.php?title=Hunter_Entertainment/Enterprises Hunter Entertainment] until her functional retirement in 2013, and complete departure from the company in 2015. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Those involved in 'the lifestyle' may recognize Sanneke by face, if not by name, from specialty clubs in New York City and London. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ==• Secret World Affiliations •== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke is a career Illuminati, and has been with the society for nearly 15 years now. Anyone who deals with the 'charm and negotiation' side of Illuminati dealings is likely to have heard of her. | ||
+ | |||
+ | She is, of course, strongly affiliated with the Cerberus company, having worked with them for the previous four years. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sandrijn is known to have several 'cross-color' friends and associates in other factions, and despite her Blue loyalty, seems usually willing to judge a person on their merits rather than their uniform. | ||

+ | In North America, she inherited a small network of contacts and compromising information regarding various demons who her former assistant, Lucy 'Akasen' Crown, helped smuggle out of the Hell dimensions and set up with some level of life on Earth. For those powerful enough or fortunate enough to pass as human, this could mean a comfortable job behind a desk at a government agency; for those less able to disguise themselves, perhaps field labor on a farm where no one cared. | ||
− | = | + | In Hell/Sheol, Sandrijn has a known and very cautious truce with a succubus known as <i>[http://www.tcdale.com/cswiki/index.php?title=Our_Lady_in_Iron Our Lady in Iron]</i> (fully: <i>Our Lady in Robes of Iron with Lips of Coral</i>), who was formerly a fairly significant power on the plane after displacing and taking over the realm of Duke Hazarkiah. Sandrijn brokered a truce between Cerberus Solutions and Our Lady in Iron, and remains in cautious contact with her due to the terms of the truce. |

In March 2016, Sandrijn has joined the ranks of the Immortals after fulfilling a contract with the Sumerian goddess Nanshe, alias ''Nina Iravani''. She is technically a very new, inexperienced, and extremely low-powered Sumerian demigod. Players who have characters of divine background are free to assume that they are aware of all of this, if they would like to use it as a roleplay hook. | In March 2016, Sandrijn has joined the ranks of the Immortals after fulfilling a contract with the Sumerian goddess Nanshe, alias ''Nina Iravani''.

=• Special Notes •= | =• Special Notes •= | ||
− | + | As a very minor divine, Sanneke possesses some extraordinary powers. These are largely on-par with, or weaker than, most Bees! | |
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke's primary 'divine domains' are related to love (eros/agape) and protection, with minor abilities related to dreams and the element of water. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <span style="color:red">'''Note:''' It is completely up to the other player/character whether these abilities affect them in any way at all.</span> | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''General Abilities:''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | [*] ''Enhanced physical strength/speed:'' Near the upper end of 'standard human'. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [*] ''Energy absorption/manipulation:'' Sanneke can absorb/manipulate energy, especially that related to her domains. For example, thermal or kinetic energy from water sources; emotional energy related to affection, lust, or loyalty. She uses this to regulate her own energy levels and for offensive/defensive purposes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [*] ''Etiquette:'' due to her divine nature, Sanneke registers as / must be acknowledged as a member (of variable rank) of any supernatural hierarchies (Fae Court, Hell courts, etc.) | ||
+ | |||
+ | [*] ''Language of Faith:'' Sanneke automatically understands (and can be understood by) any of her worshippers, regardless of what language they speak. This does not grant her any innate knowledge of the language itself (i.e. just because she can communicate with a Russian worshipper doesn't mean she understands/can speak Russian with a non-worshipper). | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Love Domain:''' | ||
+ | Sanneke has a positive aura around her which inclines people to like her (in D&D terms, people react 'one category more favorably' than they normally would). She can, by force of will, affect people with ''Fascination'' (a type of charm resulting in the person developing a desire/urge to curry Sanneke's favor and please her), and ''Euphoria'' (not a charm, but general and intense feelings of love/lust/pleasure). | ||
+ | |||
+ | A so-called 'critical success' with Fascination makes the effect permanent, and creates a 'Leash' (bond) between Sanneke and the person, effectively converting them to a worshiper of her 'Shepard' aspect. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Protection Domain:''' | ||
+ | Sanneke has an aura of authority / air of leadership around her. (In D&D terms, people near her gain a morale boost). She can, by force of will, affect people with ''Rally'' (likewise a moral boost / bolster against fear). This power is more effective on small groups than individuals. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A so-called 'critical success' with Rally makes the effect permanent, and creates a 'Leash' (bond) to her 'Hunter' aspect. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Water Domain:''' | ||
+ | Sanneke has water mastery, including the ability to detect, purify, and shape water (by taking advantage of and enhancing its surface tension). She cannot breathe water, but she can swim expertly and, by using her 'water shaping' abilities, effectively walk on water. Her ability to water shape means that she is effectively immune to drowning so long as she is conscious. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Dream Domain:''' | ||
+ | The 'Dream' domain seems to have developed spontaneously from Sanneke's mortal struggles with her nightmares. The vast majority of times when she dreams, those dreams are now lucid, and she can, while dreaming, connect to the dreams of others. This ability can be blocked by wards, interference by stronger dream-related entities, or sufficient mental training on the part of the dreamer. While connected to another person's dream, she can use it to, at various levels, either show up as 'herself' or send symbolic images (a dream about a bridge might indicate a difficult decision ahead, or a struggle or challenge to overcome to 'get to the other side'). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke's 'sending dreams' is not limited to pleasant dreams, and she is capable of sending graphic, horrifying nightmares. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | '''Notable Weaknesses:''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke's largest and most glaring weakness is that, beyond her own personal strength and reflexes, and her abilities with water.... none of her powers lend themselves to combat or defense. Her strength comes almost entirely from the loyalty and love of the people she surrounds herself with, who can and will protect her at the cost of their own lives. However, if isolated from her followers (and lacking a conveniently placed body of water to manipulate), Sanneke hasn't enough 'divine power' to so much as unlock a door, and must rely on her enhanced strength and reflexes until she can contact her followers to assist her. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sanneke's 'dream' domain developed from her own nightmares... which can and do 'escape' into reality and become physical manifestations capable of direct physical harm. While her lucid dreaming means that her own nightmares are much fewer and further between... when they do occur, they are conversely much more powerful, and much more dangerous, than they were prior. Sanneke's manifested nightmares almost always target her as the object of their animosity. | ||
