Biography
Claire Voyant
Born around the turn of the century, Claire Voyant travelled to Los Angeles in 1928 to check up on her younger sister Debbie who had gone there to look for fame and fortune. Claire met Debbie's new boyfriend, the rich and lecherous mobster Lester Maddox who wasted no time putting the moves on her as well, even suggesting a threesome. Thoroughly disgusted, she tried to convince Debbie to leave Lester, but the 18-year-old girl was too enamored with all the perks that being with Maddox offered her. Her flirtatious relationship eventually proved fatal when Maddox tired of her and had one of his men kill her in cold blood. The police and authorities were too corrupt or powerless to take on Maddox, infuriating Claire who vowed vengeance while standing at her sister's grave. At that very moment, she was contacted by Satan', who offered to give her enough power to avenge her sister if she agreed to become his immortal servant. She was granted a wide variety of powers to carry out her task. She chased down Maddox, taking her time to stalk him before shifting her hand into an elongated claw that ripped Maddox apart.
