History: Solvena was born in Belfast, to Irish Nationalist parents. Her family was killed by Irish Unionists, and she was sold on the black market to Spanish aristocracy, taken as an indentured servant, a child of six. Solvena was raised by servants, and used to entertain the children of the rich Spanish family she lived with. While in church she was taught to sing by the nuns, and found to have a stunning voice. At the age of twenty she ran away from her captors, hiding in the streets, using her voice to earn money to survive. In Barcelona, she met Rentatos Ruvias, who took her as a ghoul.
Blood bound to him for thirty years, she sang for him and took care of him. In 1953 Rentatos was killed by Sabbat, and Solvena barely escaped with her life. Once again singing in clubs, Ligiea X found her, and after talking with her offered her the embrace. From there out Ligiea showed her the ropes of being a vampire, and being a Daughter of Cacophony.
