Lady Alcina Dimitrescu

Countess Alcina Dimitrescu commonly referred to as Lady Dimitrescu, was a mutant human aristocrat. From the 1950s until her death in 2021, Dimitrescu maintained a pseudo-feudal rule over the peasantry near Castle Dimitrescu as one of the Four Lords of the region. For more than sixty years, Dimitrescu was feared by the locals over allegations of mass murder and cannibalism, which were later found out to be true. She was killed by Ethan Winters in February 2021, after conspiring with Mother Miranda in the abduction of his daughter Rose.
Alcina Dimitrescu was born into the noble Dimitrescu family sometime before the Great War, and through this ancestry inherited a hereditary blood disease, possibly porphyria cutanea tarda. Although her family traced their origins to Cesare, one of the four founders of an isolated mountain village in Europe, Alcina herself lived elsewhere, perhaps through a cadet branch.[6] At some point in her youth, likely the 1930s, she had a brief music career in the emerging Jazz scene, where she went by the name "Miss D" and played with a band called "The Pallboys" (one of their CD songs would later end up in the Winters' home decades later, with Rose Winters taking a liking to it). In the aftermath of the Second World War and the abolition of the nobility, Dimitrescu returned to her family's former lands, which had fallen under the control of a neopagan cult worshipping the Black God.

Prior to 1958, at the age of 44, Dimitrescu was lured by the cult leader, Mother Miranda, to a crypt beneath the village cemetery, where she was surgically implanted with a Cadou parasite. The purpose of this experiment was to determine her viability as a candidate who could become host to a parasitic intelligence at a later date.This experiment mutated Alcina's body considerably, granting her regenerative capabilities and retractable claw-like nails. Moreover, the parasite halted her aging process, maintaining her appearance perpetually. In spite of these impressive biological changes, the resulting mutation did not nullify her blood disease, requiring her to partake in a steady supply of fresh human blood to maintain her health. Her newfound abilty to regenerate also resulted in her growing to inhuman proportions, which could result in her growing uncontrollably if left unsupervised. Miranda therefore judged Dimitrescu to be a failure.

Although Dimitrescu was no use as a host, her claim to Castle Dimitrescu was recognized by Miranda and she was allowed to take residence in the village as one of the Four Lords, who would maintain order over the native peasantry while aiding Miranda in Cadou research.[8] Upon inhabiting the estate, Dimitrescu took over her family's vineyard and wine-distribution business as a means of supporting herself.[9]

Relishing in her reclaimed noble status, Dimitrescu developed extreme caste-based views of society, seeing herself as second only to Miranda herself.[8] She openly loathed the other three house Lords, particularly Karl Heisenberg, whom she frequently argued with. She privately bemoaned that she was not Miranda's favorite, instead being treated the same as all the others. Despite this, Dimitrescu's alliance with the other houses allowed her to rule her castle with barbarous cruelty, regularly taking in new staff to replace those who had been taken to her dungeon to be killed and drained of blood for sustenance.

Dimitrescu's own experiments with Cadou appear to have been limited, as the only confirmed instance was an experiment begun by Miranda and monitored by Dimitrescu. In this experiment, the corpses of three women were implanted with Cadou parasites. Over the course of about a week, the Cadou produced fly-like organisms which then consumed the flesh of all three bodies.[10] Having assimilated the DNA of these women, the flies merged to mimic their human shapes and slowly adapted their likenesses. Dimitrescu immediately formed a bond with these three women, whom she named Bela, Daniela and Cassandra, and came to regard herself as their mother.[11] They obeyed Dimitrescu without question, and were similar to her in that they were ageless and reliant on vampirism for sustenance. However, they were incapable of withstanding cold temperatures, thus remaining trapped within the confines of Castle Dimitrescu.

Over the next seventy years, Dimitrescu and her daughters systematically consumed the flesh and blood of local peasants and servants alike. The blood of maids was extracted and combined with grapes to create Sanguis Virginis (Latin for "Maiden's Blood"), a traditional Dimitrescu family wine.[9] The female victims, now infected with Mold, lived on as Moroaicǎ and Samcă, while male victims were consumed and then hollowed out to be turned into scarecrows for the castle vineyard. Dimitrescu's reign of terror was not without resistance, however, as one villager is known to have stolen a family heirloom - the Dagger of Death's Flowers - in an attempt to assassinate her with its poisoned blade. The attempt failed and he was buried with the dagger in the Tower of Worship to keep it hidden from any others who might seek to harm her
In February 2021, Miranda's search for a viable host was finally fulfilled with the discovery of Rosemary Winters, a superhuman born to an American family afflicted by the Mold. In the early hours of Tuesday February 9, Miranda returned to the village with the stolen baby. Each of the Lords was then given possession of a flask containing a different body part of the child, with Dimitrescu being charged with guarding the "Head Flask".[14] With these body parts, Miranda planned to revive the baby with the Mold in order to turn her into a host for her deceased daughter, Eva. As considerable biomass was required to accomplish this feat, Miranda ordered the Four Lords to murder their servants and the villagers. By the end of the morning, anyone who remained in Dimitrescu's employ was brutally slaughtered or turned into a Lycan.

Along with the other three Lords, Alcina attended an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with Ethan Winters, Rose's father, who had been captured and put on trial before Miranda and the houses. Alcina implored Miranda to give her custody over Winters, claiming that her daughters "love to entertain foreigners", though Miranda decided to let Heisenberg dispose of Winters instead, prompting a loud argument between Dimitrescu and Heisenberg.[15] Winters managed to escape Heisenberg and, believing that Rose might be in Dimitrescu's domain, entered her castle. Alcina's three daughters quickly found and subdued him, bringing him before Lady Dimitrescu herself. Although Alcina's daughters planned to consume Winters, Alcina informed them she would have to tell Mother Miranda first and commanded them to incapacitate Winters instead, ordering them to impale both of his hands with sickle chains and suspend him from the ceiling.
Prying himself free in due course, Winters traversed the halls of Castle Dimitrescu in search of his daughter, only to be cornered by Daniela, Bela, and Cassandra throughout, eventually killing Bela and Daniela by exposing them to the cold air outside. Upon discovering her daughters' remains, Alcina demanded Cassandra to find and kill him, despite Miranda's orders that Winters be kept alive.[17] In spite of the family's efforts, Cassandra fell to Winters as well, forcing Alcina to find him herself. Alcina encountered Winters trying to sneak into her bedroom and, falsely claiming that she never had Rose to begin with, pummeled him through the floor in a fit of rage, inadvertently allowing him to escape through the catacombs below. Dimitrescu followed closely behind, declaring she would hunt him down and break him for killing her daughters, prompting Winters to defiantly snarl back at her. However, he did not get far before having his hand
