History


Date of Birth: January 3rd, 1779
Home: Senlis, Oise, Picardy, France
Family: Jonathan and Elise Boucher (parents), Nataniel (older brother), Yvette (younger sister); Katriane (birth name)
The Metamorphosis: Observed Injustice (a peasant rebel during the French Revolution, despite her low birth she demonstrated a high intellect and fell in with the Girardins, resulting in her arrest and subsequent imprisonment in the infamous Bastille; while suffering within from neglect and an onset of plague, she beheld visions of Queen Ananasa, and felt "creepy-crawlies"; believing them hallucinations, she resisted the urge to tear at her own skin, but screamed nonetheless, until her screams choked off with her insides changing first into black widow spiders and crawling up her throat, exploding from her mouth: and the rest of her body followed; the Crawlering then escaped easily), 1799
Mentor: Charles de Touques
The Test: Trial by Knowledge (having escaped the prison, when she instinctively reformed in Homid, she found herself no longer caring about "liberty", only intrigued by the visions and whispered will of her Queen, and Charles was guided to her in turn; together, they left France to Vienna, where she learned the ropes of life as a Hatar from an aging Agere)
Comrades: Norah Gladwin, Lily Scarborough
Key Event #1: Treachery (despite her modest background, she demonstrated aptitude for manipulation, chicanery, and seduction, and the Quen guided her to infiltrate the Hapsburg Palace as a maid)
Key Event #2: Awe & Wonder (another vision from Ananasa followed, directly her to seduce the prince and produce a bastard heir of Ananasi lineage, which she did and left the palace to raise the child)
Key Event #3: Awe & Wonder (another vision interrupted her mothering after a few years, and the child was left with Charles; she was directed to enter the Microcosm and shift breed to velvet spider in order to spread those Kinfolk back through Germany)
Key Event #4: Awe Wonder (while within the Microcosm, her Queen guided her through hints at the secret of how to effect "immortality" through the transfer of her spiders into another human host)
Key Event #5: War (her time in the wilds broke down when Garou began investigating, so through a campaign of terror and precision ambushing, she drove off the werewolves without seriously endangering herself or slaying them)
Key Event #6: Treachery (when her time in the Microcosm ended, she moved to Germany, once more as a peasant working her way up as "the help", this time among Bavarian noble households)
Key Event #7: Treachery (her manipulations of Bavarian nobles over the course of the new couple decades laid the seeds through whispers in their ears, per the Queen's intent, for the anti-Semitism and Nazism that would arise form this region in the coming years)
Key Event #8: Treachery (eventually, she became like an old witch in the woods of a fairytale, even luring children to their doom; an orphan child peasant became her last victim there, as her new host; she then fled to France as a wandering orphan girl)
Key Event #9: Treachery (Daliena became the ultimate lolita in a brothel full of loli teenagers; she ate her way through baby-making sugar baby teens in the late 19th and early 20th-centuries
Key Event #10: Treachery (at last though, she is given a clue of the Queen's greater plan, a scheme to affect an entire lineage of Damhán, so she was directed to move to Boston in the USA to further this plot, which she suspected involved the descendant of that bastard Hapsburg child she produced)
Key Event #11: Treachery (by now highly respected among the Ananasi as a very cunning and faithful servant of their Queen, she knew she would not be mothering any more children but rather mentoring new werespiders to this mysterious end)
Transition: Reassignment (from Boston, she re-settled in San Francisco, the final keys to the Queen's plan now in place in preparation for the impending Apocalypse)

Norah



Lily



Spider's Bite




Weakness
Maternalistic


As a cunning old werespider, Daliena has now spent centuries in faithful service to her Queen. It's kept her on the foreground of the Queen's grand schemes, and she now rises to the highest levels. That experience and expectation of fidelity has lent her to others a sense of her own grandiosity and conceit.

Likelihood of Corruption

Very low.

She's confronted, vanquished, and paradoxically inspired the worst of humans and others. Little can surprise or fool her now.
