Zenobia

Zenobia was a witch, presumably from Athens, Greece. She fell in love with a man named John Knapp, but after he left her, she vowed that anyone he loved would be killed. Attempting to make good on her promise, she killed his wife, and attempted to kill his teenaged daughter. She was stopped by the Werewolf Hunter, burned to death by “Godolphin powder”. Zenobia could make suggestions in people’s minds, even from a great distance, causing them to do her will, though they seemed to be capable of fighting the suggestion if they knew what was happening. She could watch people and events from great distances using a crystal ball. She also had the abilities to change her appearance in a cloud of blue mist, and to change animals into small “blood crazed gnomes.” She kept a raven as a familiar, who sat on her shoulder. The raven could transform into a gnome. She may have been immortal, and may have had other powers, as well.
