Daughters of Coldharbour

A Daughter of Coldharbour is a female individual who is granted Vampirism via a ritual with the creator and patron deity of Vampires, Molag Bal.

History
The first Daughter of Coldharbour can be roughly dated back to least the early First Era. Lamae Beolfag was a Nedic virgin who was raped by Molag Bal. It is recorded that after the ordeal, Molga Bal shed a droplet of blood on her brow and left her to die.

During the night she passed into death, but as her funeral pyre was still burning she emerged as the first pure-blood vampire.

Ritual
Since Lamae, tradition dictated the females be offered to Molag Bal on his summoning day. Few survive the ordeal and those who do emerge as pure-blooded vampires. Being selected as an offering was considered to be an honor that is not rejected lightly.
