The vile Praetorius family have been a threat to the world ever since the golden age of the Roman Empire.
The patriarch of the family, Urbanus, was said to have stolen forbidden, magic scrolls from the depths of the underworld, from under the watchful eyes of the god Pluto himself.
With these scrolls in his possession he quickly became known as a highly powerful necromancer and began using his newfound abilities to rid himself of his political rivals.
Unfortunately for Urbanus, word eventually got out of his blasphemous practices and he and his family had to flee Rome out of fear for their lives.
Eventually the Praetorius family settled in Belgica, a country which was still a part of the Empire, but far away from their enemies in Rome.
Realizing that by using his powers directly he would only draw unwanted attention to himself, Urbanus instead began offering his services to the highest bidders. The necromancer started creating armies of undead for whoever was able to afford them, without getting personally involved.
Eventually he became so skilled at this practice he even developed ways to disguise his undead so they were practically indistinguishable from regular, living soldiers and in doing so he became quite wealthy.
As time passed he even managed to turn himself into an undead, making certain he would be able to continue his lucrative business plan for a very, very long time.
He even secured a deal with a powerful demon and infused his own family members with demonic blood, increasing their own affinity for dark magic, making certain that even if he should somehow meet his demise, his descendants would continue his legacy.
And so the Praetorius family thrived for many centuries under Urbanus' leadership, long after the fall of the Roman Empire. Hiding in the shadows they continued to hone their dark practices and created new and even viler undead to sell.
Even to this day they have continued their blasphemous business from their luxerious estate in Belgium.
While the demonic blood that coursed to their veins began to become more and more diluted with every generation, the Praetoriuses were still powerful sorcerers to be feared.
Then came Izebel Praetorius.
While her affinity for necromancy was quite weak, she none the less developed another formidable talent: Mastery over the art of alchemy. Brewing powerful poisons and magic potions was Izebel's forté. While this did not impress her elders, she none the less proved herself useful to the family business, so her lack of necromantic talents was tolerated.
Unfortunately Izebel possessed a strong rebellious streak and she would often sneak out of the Praetorius estate to socialize with the lowly commoners.
While she got into a lot of trouble every time she was found out the girl none the less continued this practice, not wanting to spend all of her days surrounded by boring family members and even more boring undead servants.
Until the day she got herself a boyfriend.
Izebel of course kept this a secret from her parents, but they found out eventually none the less.
As expected, they forbade her from associating with this common rube, telling her that once she was old enough they'd find her a much more suitable bachelor to marry.
Izebel would have none of it. If her family didn't want them to be together then they could go to hell as far as she was concerned.
And in the following weeks she began spending more and more time away from the family estate,
instead devoting more time to her boyfriend and having fun.
Naturally her parents could not allow this to continue and they sent some personally customized undead monstrosities to take care of this problem.
They forcefully brought Izebel back home to her parents. Izebel was of course outraged and she demanded to know what they had done with her boyfriend. Her parents however calmly responded that for the security and prosperity of the Praetorius family they could not allow her to keep seeing this boy and they had him killed. However, as they, in their words, were not complete monsters, they had seen how fond her daughter was of this young man, so Izebel would be allowed to keep him...as an undead servant. At which point they introduced Izebel to her now zombified boyfriend.
As she was brought face to face with the pale face and cold, lifeless eyes of the boy she loved, it suddenly hit her: Her family was insane!
Izebel couldn't believe it had taken her so long to see them for what they truely were, but by spending time outside of the mansion, engaging with REAL human beings, she now realized her family was full of MONSTERS!
Wracked with grief and fear, Izebel fled the estate shortly thereafter. After drinking her finest invisibility potion, she snuck out in the dead of night and never looked back.
Of course they came after her, but as her family saw her as nothing more than a weak blooded, confused little girl, they severely underestimated her deviousness and her resourcefulness.
She found a woman living on the street and, with a little coercion from a big wad of money, convinced her to drink a potion that would temporarily turn her into Izebel's spitting image.
And when her family's minions finally found her dupe, Izebel was long gone.
Changing her identity to Jessica De Praeter, an "ordinary" chemist from Belgium, she traveled to America and used what little remained of her allowance to set up shop there.
Now Jess is slowly gaining fame in the criminal underground of the US as a woman who can set you up with all kinds of crazy, magical potions and deadly poisons, as long as you can afford her outrageous prices that is.
While some might see this as hypocrisy on her account, to get rich off the suffering of others with dark arcane practices just like her family has done for centuries, Jess knows that while she is in no way a "good" person, at least she will never be as evil as her parents...
Wow, I've finally found the time to write another story...Where has the time gone?
Anyway, I'm very proud to finally introduce Jess to you all! A rather horrible, greedy little woman (she's only around 1,40 m tall) with an extremely annoying nasal voice and a morbid sense of humour.
If you'd meet her in real life you'd probably hate her.
But seeing where she grew up I can safely say she turned out pretty good.
Oh and she's also a huge pervert. She just loves big, beefy and preferably, exotic, men. Unfortunately they usually don't like her, but that's okay...She has all kinds of potions to make them change their mind!
Another character designed by me and expertly given physical form by the very talented DragonmanX!
Originally her face was supposed to be a bit less...appealing, but I just ended up loving what DragonmanX had done with her, so this is what she officially looks like now! (Eat it, Dreez!)
