Lady Essenia (also known as the Blood Queen[1]) was a master alchemist and the high chamberlain of Greymoor Keep.[2][3] Essenia was a vampire ancient, and prior to Rada al-Saran's arrival, she ruled over Greymoor Keep.

Lady Essenia is credited with the creation of Chaotica Vampiris, a strain of vampirism that only infects those already afflicted with vampirism.[2] The afflicted are transformed into Bloodknights, pale monstrosities that are stronger and faster than normal vampires.[2] The Blood Queen sought to elevate her vampiric condition, and succeeded in doing so in 2E 582, when a vampire sired by Count Verandis Ravenwatch appeared in her castle.[4] Lady Essenia used Verandis's blood to empower herself, transforming into a magical abomination similar to Harrowing Reaper.[3] She was slain by the Vestige that same day.[3]
