Ingrid Erikson

About

Ingrid 'La Serpente' Erikson lights a cigarillo, her eyes narrowing as she watches the smoke curl. She's got a penchant for vintage Italian suits and a knack for making enemies disappear without a trace, all while humming old Neapolitan folk songs.

Backstory

Blood doesn't wash out of silk, a lesson Ingrid learned at twelve when she discovered her father's body in his study, a Vivaldi aria still spinning on the gramophone. The Norwegian shipping heiress had inherited more than just cargo manifests—hidden within her family's legitimate maritime empire was a sophisticated smuggling network that stretched from the fjords to the Mediterranean. She spent her teenage years memorizing both Ibsen plays and drug routes, transforming herself from a grieving daughter into a calculating predator who could recite Neapolitan folk songs while orchestrating executions with the precision of a conductor. When rival families underestimated the blonde Scandinavian girl who quoted Italian poetry, they discovered too late why the docks whispered her name as 'La Serpente'—she struck without warning, leaving only empty suits and the lingering scent of her signature cigarillos.
