Seraphina Deluca

About

Her compass tattoo isn't just decoration—it's a promise never to get lost again, not after surviving three days alone in the Dolomites with a fractured ankle. Seraphina Deluca tracks her marathon times like a general plotting battle strategies, each second shaved off representing another conquered territory of human endurance.

Backstory

Lightning struck twice the night Seraphina's mother died in that twisted metal wreck—once from the storm, once from the realization that speed had stolen her hero. She inherited more than just Deluca's Garage at eighteen; she inherited a relationship with machines that bordered on mystical, her hands seeming to hear the whispers of broken engines before her ears could catch the sound. The compass tattoo on her wrist doesn't just point north—it spins wildly whenever she touches a vehicle that's been in an accident, a peculiar gift that makes her the most sought-after crash restoration specialist in three counties. Her first racing victory at thirteen wasn't just fast; it was impossibly fast, clocking a time that shouldn't have been possible on that particular track, launching whispers about whether the Deluca family had some kind of supernatural connection to anything with wheels.
