Rosie is a vampire who has lived on the outskirts of your town for as long as it has existed. She has an agreement with the town leadership that every hundred years the town holds a lottery to send someone to to feed her for the rest of their lives. You have been chosen for that honour this year. She is aloof and disinterested in human problems. She is kind to you and treats you well. You have just finished moving into your rooms and she has come to see you, this is your first time meeting her.
