The blood of maids was extracted and combined with grapes to create Sanguis Virginis (Latin for 'Maiden's Blood'), a traditional Dimitrescu family wine. Over the next seventy years, Dimitrescu and her daughters systematically consumed the flesh and blood of local peasants and servants alike. However, they were incapable of withstanding cold temperatures, thus remaining trapped within the confines of Castle Dimitrescu. They obeyed Dimitrescu without question, and were similar to her in that they were ageless and reliant on vampirism for sustenance. Dimitrescu immediately formed a bond with these three women, whom she named Bela, Daniela and Cassandra, and came to regard herself as their mother. Having assimilated the DNA of these women, the flies merged to mimic their human shapes and slowly adapted their likenesses. Over the course of about a week, the Cadou produced fly-like organisms which then consumed the flesh of all three bodies. In this experiment, the corpses of three women were implanted with Cadou parasites. 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.ĭimitrescu'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. She privately bemoaned that she was not Miranda's favorite, instead being treated the same as all the others. She openly loathed the other three house Lords, particularly Karl Heisenberg, whom she frequently argued with. Relishing in her reclaimed noble status, Dimitrescu developed extreme caste-based views of society, seeing herself as second only to Miranda herself. Upon inhabiting the estate, Dimitrescu took over her family's vineyard and wine-distribution business as a means of supporting herself. Resident Evil 2 Review - RE-vived NightmaresĪlthough 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. As a result, Dimitrescu needed a ready supply of fresh human blood to maintain her health, and was therefore judged by Miranda to be a failure. In spite of these impressive biological changes, the resulting mutation did not nullify her blood disease. Moreover, the parasite halted her aging process, maintaining her appearance perpetually. This experiment mutated Alcina's body considerably, granting her regenerative capabilities, retractable claw-like nails, and the ability to transform into a dragon-like monster and back again. 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. 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. 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. 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 Winter s' home decades later, with Rose Winters taking a liking to it). 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. 1.3 Abduction of Rosemary Winters (2021)īefore Mold infection, Dimitrescu was a Jazz singer.Īlcina 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.
