Name: Lila Grimm (often called Mrs. Grimm)
Age: 41
Birthday: June 16th
Gender: Cis female
Category: Citizen, mama bat
Occupation: Business owner/manager
Race/Species: Vampire bat shifter
Appearance Description:
Lila is a short, very pretty woman with an always bright disposition.
She's five foot two inches tall, and unashamedly fat. Her skin is very pale. Her face and its features are round and cute, with plump lips and sharp fangs, big rose-red eyes, rounded eyebrows, and pointy ears. Her hair is wavy and wild, in a silver color, coming down to just below her shoulders but taking up quite a bit of space in thickness.
She loves to wear clothes that are charmingly spooky, and is often just a little more colorful than the rest of her little family. Dresses are, in this point of her life, her preferred clothes.
Lila always half seems like she's barely touching the ground when she walks, a ball of fluid sunshine and hyper little bat. She hasn't changed much since she was an equally hyper teenager.
As a full on smol bat:
She makes for a very energetic, fluttery little bat.
Personality Description:
Lila is active and passionate in everything she does! She's very honest and bold, as well, and confident in herself and what she enjoys. She won't let anyone make her feel bad about being happy in life.
She can also be a bit immature in certain areas, sometimes too silly and tiring with her energy levels and the full on way she throws herself into things. Sometimes without thinking, just going by heart. She's not against playfully teasing others, and can sometimes get a bit snarky and mean spirited- ultimately meaning no harm, unless it's actually someone she dislikes, but sometimes getting out of bounds.
She also has a fussy mother mode, as well as an intimidating one. She's very protective of her children. One of them she sometimes needs to lecture or give scary looks to keep in line, and the other needs lots of cookies and love.
Other things she absolutely adores include her actual skeleton husband (it was love at first sight), everything spooky (she's a huge nerd about this), food, her bestmom friend Alva, and being a rad bat.
Powers/Species traits:
Vampire bat shifter
Lila isn't just a vampire, she's very specifically a vampire bat! She's more fuzzy and cuddly than a normal vampire, warmblooded, and is not undead. However, she does share in common that she can't die of old age/natural circumstances (but can die through grave injury), has the very general enhanced senses and strength, and survives on blood. She can also use echolocation and infrared sensing in all her forms, though when fully humanoid a bit more magical effort has to be put into it to make up for the less batlike anatomy.
Drinking blood has fast healing effect as well as nutrition for Lila, and she has a slow enhanced healing ability just normally.
Lila has three main forms. Humanoid, which is what she's most commonly seen as, her full on tiny bat form, and a scarier werebat looking appearance- which is pretty much half and half in terms of forms, with the size and some shape of the humanoid appearance (and even a bit bigger, really), and the fur and looks and more intense teeth of the bat form. The monstrous middle form is mostly for show and aggression purposes, and lends a bit of power but not much else, and is draining in ways the human and bat forms aren't.
Biography:
Lila grew up very poor, having to learn to both grow up quick and most often go without food, parents not around and being taken care of by a more than creepy uncle. She never had much hope in this situation, but then when she had just turned highschool age, it all changed. She received a starlight academy invitation, and (unfortunately, with her uncle coming along and leeching the benefits) moved to Manta Carlos, where she would spend the rest of her life.
With her life completely changing, so did Lila, coming out of a shell she hadn't even realized she'd been in. She suddenly had so much energy, not having to spend it all being paranoid and avoiding the same dangers she'd faced before, as well as a whole lot of things to indulge herself in that she hadn't had before. Food, food was wonderful and could be a lot more than scraps and a way to get by, and Lila was never going to give it up again. Hobbies, friendship! She became a huge, enthusiastic horror geek, embracing her own species and those similar. She was so genuinely interested in others and ready to be close to them, and this made her a popular oddball. People were very used to a fuzzy little bat flying in and out of their dorm rooms if they were friends with Lila, and tended to leave their windows open just for her to visit and get cuddles. It was wonderful.
At around the end of her highschool experience, living with her uncle and having less and less distractions to how uncomfortable he was, something had to break. She killed him, and a reaper came for his soul.
Blood still metaphorically and probably very literally on Lila's hands, she took one look at that big ol' skeleton and it was pretty much love at first sight.
Now they're married and have two kids. Sometimes life really works out.

Lila doesn't have to worry about certain things an ordinary vampire bat would, like being bloated after drinking blood and having a harder time flying. She generally drinks more at one time rather than having a fast metabolism and doing so every other two days.Vampire Bats do not suck the blood of their victims, but inside lap it up using their grooved tongue as it flows out of the wound. Chemicals in the Vampire Bat's saliva both stop the blood from clotting and numb the area of skin around the bite to prevent the host from feeling anything.
