Overview... at home in England waiting for the love of her life, Jonathan Harker. In the meantime, Mina engages in the normal daily routines of Victorian women, gossiping and holding court with a number of socialites and suitors. Unfortunately, she is also being hunted by a Transylvanian vampire named Count Dracula.
Personality… quaint and polite. Mina follows the customs of Victorian society. Her friend Lucy lives a life more on the edge, but Mina is very well-behaved and enjoys her simple life of letter-writing and the like.
