Rianna

Rianna is silver haired, silver eyed woman who has been a resident of Yuriba for over four years, though she has spent a major part of the last two years watching the island evolve quietly from her home.

History

Before Yuriba

Much of Rianna's past is unclear, her memories are increasingly hazy the further back she delves and she herself indicates that she cannot recall even the exact year or day of her birth. From what details the woman can recollect however it is clear that on or near her 18th birthday Rianna received the Embrace of vampirism from then lover, a change that has allowed her to live for over seven hundred years before arriving on the island of Yuriba.

The intervening years between Rianna's vampiric awakening and arrival in Yuriba see her traveling the world, more often than not in company with her sire. Rianna claims to have been present for many of the defining moments of modern history. She has been heard to say she was in Rome during the reign of Nero and the Great Fire of 64, which saw the city burned to the ground. Other notable events she has mentioned include the beheading of Anne Boleyn in 1536 and the period of Spanish Inquisition.

In Yuriba

Rianna arrived in Yuriba during the fall of 2002, leaving the modern world behind with the intent to live out the remainder of her days on the island paradise.

In the beginning, Rianna found it difficult to rein in her wild lifestyle and tongue amongst some of the more tame-natured individuals on the island. She found her quiet voice in the form of Rose, her lover whom would later become her wife. Where Rianna was unpredictable and tumultuous, Rose was calm and sensible. They shared everything together, and founded the Relaxation Emporium, the island's first professional massage parlor.

After a while, by virtue of Yuriba's nature the two conceive a child together that Rianna carried, a baby daughter named Sarafina. It was a decision that they both made without thinking of the long-term destiny of their daughter, and it was with heavy hearts that they gave their fruit of their love to a family in the outside world so that she could grow up normally. This even, among other factors saw their marriage begin to slowly slip until a large fight between them erupted and they chose to go their separate ways. However, time heals all wounds, and they continue to remain friends to this day.

Determined that she would never love again, she found it again after a short period in the arms of Rylia, whose personality complimented her own, which had mellowed considerably by this point. Their love lasted this time, and as they prepared for their impending marriage, Rylia disappeared suddenly and unexpectadly, leaving Rianna alone once again.

More recently, she has been trying to adjust to the island as it has become and has permanently closed the Relaxation Emporium. The area it once occupied redeveloped into a Japanese teahouse that she has named the Sakura Blossom.

Contributions To The Island

Rianna is well known on the island as a shrewd business-woman, and is often mentioned as one of Yuriba's most wealthy residents, a status she herself is quite pleased to point out whenever the opportunity may arise. For the most part Rianna's wealth can be attributed to a number of different businesses including the Relaxation Emporium and Sakura Blossom; as well as products such as the Wands of Faerie Summoning, Succubus Cream and The Sailor Senshi Magical Wands.
