Cindy Bragg

Cindy Bragg is a Vampire.
Quote: C'mon, tough guy. Let's see how brave you are without that gun.
Prelude
Cindy Bagg wasn't always a cold, efficient killer. She knows all too well that once, years ago, she was just another weakling, another faceless member of the unending legion of victims. She stoically endured her father's abuse. And when the lady who ran the home to which the judge sent her beat Cindy, she quietly endured once again. Cindy always approached violence like that, stepping outside of herself, carefully and coldly assessing her situation and seeking an escape. When she turned 16, she hit the streets hoping to survive on her own. For a while, she struggled along with a pack of other kids, digging scraps out of dumpsters and begging for cash on corners. But she soon found herself working for a small-time pimp to survive. He insisted that none of his girls use heroin, which Cindy naively interpreted as a sign of paternal concern. As it turned out, most of her clients were members of what Cindy though was a freakish blood-drinking cult.
She eventually learned that her pimp was under the control of a small group of vampires who used him to maintain a steady and safe supply. The vampires apparently crossed the wrong people, though. From Cindy's vague memories, she knows that she was tuned against her will and sent into a rage. She and a few other newly born bloodsuckers were let loose against some target. Cindy still doesn't understand exactly what happened. All she remembers is waking up buried beneath the charred wreckage of warehouse. She dug herself out, picked off the first solitary person she came across in order to feed, grabbed a new set of clothes and took off.
Since that night, Cindy has adjusted to her new existence. She now survives on her own and doesn't have to worry about anyone pushing her around anymore. She revels in her superiority to humans, sometimes walking into a bar and picking a fight with an aggressive lout who reminds her of her father. She's smart enough to keep her true nature a secret and has had some contact with a few local vampires. She doesn't understand the intricate workings of undead interactions, but had managed to keep out of trouble so far. Now that she's finally strong enough to rely on herself, she refuses to lose her newfound strength.
Concept
A runaway train of anger and violence, the Predator was an outsider or victim before she was embraced. Now that she has capabilities beyond mortal humans, she inflicts violence far more severe than she ever endured.
