Genevieve Sandrine du Pointe du Lac Dieudonné

A very old (older than most adult elves) Wuxia French Kung Fu master barmaid vampiress in the Warhammer Fantasy Battles universe. I swear I'm not making this shit up.

You may call her a Mary Sue, but many call her their waifu.

The Legend

A long time ago, in an alternate universe far far away there lived a young Bretonnian (French) girl. Her father was a servant to the local knightly lord. Then a big meanie invaded, killing fuckloads of people and executing all the nobles while plundering the province. Poor little Genevieve was left on the streets of a mostly depopulated dukedom, and at the age of 16 a pedovampire named Chandagnac found her and made her one of his wives. Chandagnac himself was a servant to Lady Melissa d'Acques, a very prestigious cougar of the Lahmian Bloodline.

Chandagnac was shortly after hunted down by priests of Ulric, as he was far too dim-witted and far too eccentric to stay hidden. Now left with nobody in the world but with a bloodlust and superhuman powers, Genevieve went east.

She spent some time in Araby (the Middle East), during the crusades between them and her people. Eventually she proceeded through the Warhammer Silk Road and ended up in Cathay, AKA Warhammer China. She became a trader between Cathay and Nippon (Japan), making her one of the few beings to have ever been to Nippon.

At some point she met a master monk named Master Po (showing GW being creative as always). She spend thirty years with him learning to control her blood lust to the point she required very little to survive and both telling stories to him, as well as learning quite a bit about the cultures Cathay has met. Eventually Master Po went on to teach important Cathayan generals, but that's not important at all since GW has never bothered making Cathay relevant.

She aged pretty well!

Genevieve traveled to the Empire soon after, where she came out of the closet as a vampire. Somehow this was acceptable in her case, and she mingled in high society until she became bored and frustrated with the pompous nobility (Magnus the Pious, one of the greatest Emperors of the Empire, feeling her up as a greeting probably contributed). She slipped into the lower class, and ended up working as a barmaid in Altdorf for several decades. During this time, she helped catch a Jack The Ripper style figure and became even more disillusioned by the arrogant and childish nobles.

Genevieve the Barmaid.

Eventually she was found by the Elector Count Oswald von Konigswald who paid her to join him in his quest to kill Drachenfels. Genevieve spent most of her time killing the greenskins/Daemons/Undead in the corridors while Oswald snuck in to kill Drach. After their victory, Genevieve returned to her inn and purchased it.

Decades later, Oswald invited her along with the highest nobility of the time to a play about "his" defeat of Drachenfels. There she met Karl Franz, whom she took a liking to, and the actress playing her, whom she very much hated. Drachenfels returned to life during the play, and Genevieve and the director of the play named Detlef Sierck gained the blessing of Sigmar. Genevieve fed on Drachenfels to survive wounds during the battle, and in doing so read his mind and saw the extent of his evil deeds as well as how eternal he was. After the defeat of Drachenfels, Genevieve and Detlef fell in love.

They returned to her inn, where he continued to write plays known the world over from Ulthuan to Lustria (who knew the Slann were patrons of the arts?). She bankrolled his productions.

Canon?

The Drachenfels and Genevieve stories rely on canon that has since been retconned, and any discussion about either will usually start an argument over the canonicity of the story. The fact she's a very popular character in the Warhammer Fantasy communities, and her books are generally regarded as being very well written makes those discussions particularly heated. Almost every source cites the fact that Vampires are universally reviled in the Warhammer Fantasy universe, and in the Empire being or working with the Undead is a graver heresy than working with Chaos. Despite this Genevieve is openly a vampire and mingles throughout Empire society. She only recieves unease from others rather than being chased with pitchforks, and the Witch Hunters of the Empire would normally not hesitate to FWIP anyone regardless of their position. For this the only logical explanation is that she has had the approval of three Emperors, who's authority even the Witch Hunters must obey. The fact that somehow Sigmar's light didn't disintegrate her but instead empowered her is also questionable, but at least with the acceptance that it DID work must give her some credit (then again, in Mordheim the Sigmarite Witch Hunters spent as much time killing heretics as they did the other Sigmarites due to the fact that prophesies from Sigmar are still prophesies, and magic is HERESY). Drachenfels himself is full of canon plot holes, but that can be seen and argued on his own page.

On the Tabletop

Genevieve, thanks to her globe-trotting lifestyle, could be fluffed into most Order armies. Of course Empire and Bretonnia armies work best, as does the player who fields a homemade Cathayan army. For a model the Bretonnian Damsels or the Vampire maidens off the Coven Throne model work best.
