Bio: Near the end of the 18th century, Mercy was born to a midclass family in a town in the English countryside. The women of her family had been midwives for centuries. Instead of doing laboral chores like many of the other children her age, she studied the wild herbs and observed her mother delivering babies until she could work as a midwive herself. As the local church was incharge of the medical care of the area, Mercy had a close connection with the spiritual community. She was seen by the people as being similar to an infirmaress nun only without the offical vows. Such a behavior kept her from being courted or wed.
One evening after successfully birthing a local lady's first child, the woman's husband asked her aside. Assuming that she was just going to be receiving her pay, she followed. Instead she found herself being feed upon by a newly-changed vampire and blood being forced down her throat. The lord declared that it was her reward for helping his only chance at a child survive.
The local priest found her pressed against the church door late that night, clutching her prayer beads so tightly that her skin was burning. He instantly knew what she was. Rather than finishing her as he so easily could, but memories of her since birth as always a devoted follower of God caused him to ask her story. It was quickly arranged for her to have passage to America, while the priest alerted the towns people of the lords vampire nature.
